Jill and I stand with the Jewish community in Australia as they face unimaginable loss and suffering following a targeted attack at a Hanukkah celebration. It’s shocking and unconscionable. We must unite against violence and antisemitism, and give hate no safe harbor anywhere in the world.
For Jewish people lighting a menorah tonight: I know that it is hard to find hope while carrying sorrow. But your resilience and capacity to find faith and joy despite centuries of persecution and pain has always been your light. We must never lose hope.

The kid who shows up when it’s hard.
And the kid who looks back years later and says, *”That team changed my life.”*

I heard several amazing speeches today @mrhhighschool but this one particularly stood out on the importance of including Asian American history in our curriculum. We must uplift diverse perspectives & fully represent all contributions our spaces. #StudentVoice#InclusiveEducation
