I’m thrilled to share I’ve been selected as a Security Fellow for the @TrumanProject class of 2025! It’s an honor to be part of such an impressive and principled group of foreign policy leaders. #TrumanProject #Diplomacy #Defense #Democracy

So excited that @geetaraogupta has finally been confirmed as the U.S. Ambassador at Large for Global Women's Issues @StateDept @StateGWI . She will be a tremendous asset to U.S. foreign policy.

Glad I was able to join the @MomsDemand DC Chapter before they marched with @AMarch4OurLives this morning. Gun violence has impacted all of us — and as DC’s next Attorney General, I will fight to stop it.

I stand in solidarity with everyone marching today.

[Nora O'Connell @norakoconnell]

@s_e_rose @USAID Congratulations, Sarah!

Reading “Time to Care” report by @Oxfam and was blown away by this. @OxfamAmerica #genderequity #incomeinequality

[Nora O'Connell @norakoconnell]

@Brightwoodian Hi! If you go to Bruce’s web site to the “on the issues” page and click on “housing justice”, there are some great examples there. https://t.co/c3D8doWgpt

[Nora O'Connell @norakoconnell]

Bruce Spiva has the track record of actually fighting for housing rights in DC. We need him for AG.

[Bruce Spiva @bspivadc]

Our campaign is up with the first TV ad of the DC Democratic primary.

For me, using the power of the law for justice is personal.

[Zach Israel @ZachBIsrael]

Major kudos to @bspivadc for having the courage to successfully file a challenge against a candidate who was simply not qualified to run for DC Attorney General under DC law! This is now a three-person race, and you should cast your vote for Bruce! https://t.co/8jU7cXJucM

[Bruce Spiva @bspivadc]

The people of DC deserve an Attorney General who is ready on day one to take on the full responsibilities of the office. https://t.co/0NgZ0MdjoB

[Nora O'Connell @norakoconnell]

Housing justice is probably the most important issue facing DC. We need @bspivadc for DC AG to fight for it. #DC

[Bruce Spiva @bspivadc]

Yesterday, I joined the Park Morton community to speak with fair housing advocate Shonta High, a fighter for those who are being displaced from their homes. Housing justice is a huge priority in my campaign for Attorney General and I’ve got a record of fighting for DC residents.
