@ckapadia @OTI @DavidsonNTIA @NTIAgov I couldn’t be more confident in your leadership!

[Sarah Morris @sarmorris]

A bittersweet announcement as I say goodbye to the organization that has been my professional home for over a decade (and to the many, many incredible people I worked with along the way), but I'm truly excited and grateful for the opportunity to join the stellar team @NTIAgov

[Open Tech Institute at New America @OTI]

After ~11 years at @OTI, OTI Director @sarmorris will join @NTIAgov as Senior Advisor to @DavidsonNTIA, working to invest in bridging the #DigitalDivide. OTI's Chief of Staff @ckapadia will serve as OTI's interim director. Our statement: https://t.co/4wZjTDVl2F

@kmishmael @afitzgerald Colliding worlds for me! Hi @afitzgerald! Love to see the joy on both of your faces 😀

[Sarah Morris @sarmorris]

@amac Achy, headache, and crippling fatigue (struggling not to fall asleep during meetings)- I basically just stayed awake as long as I could that evening and then slept through the rest of it. Felt mostly fine by the next morning, but was still pretty tired for the next couple of days

[Sarah Morris @sarmorris]

@gretabyrum @ssrc_org So excited to hear this news! Congrats, friend!

[Sarah Morris @sarmorris]

@kmishmael @NewAmericaEd It's been a delight to work with you @kmishmael! Cheers to new opportunities!

[Sarah Morris @sarmorris]

@Ltpietrzak Ha - I just asked Brent if we should go to the basement. He was like, “why?” I did ask him to go bring our tomato plants closer to the side of the house though. Nebraska born and raised!

It’s been a privilege working with @rmack over the past decade and watching @rankingrights grow into a leader on human rights in the digital age.
Rebecca: it's bittersweet to say goodbye, but we're all better off for what you've accomplished here. Cheers to your next chapter!

[Rebecca MacKinnon @rmack]

I am grateful to my friend and colleague @ellerybiddle and the rest of the @rankingrights team for this moving farewell blog post as I wind down my final week with the non-profit research program I founded in early 2013. https://t.co/tNYWbtzNlg

@Ltpietrzak Yes! We just had this on a return flight, and I was struck by the fact that this view never gets old.

[Sarah Morris @sarmorris]

Listen to @FranOchillo and keep this front of mind, particularly as we talk about $100B in outlays of federal funding for broadband.

[Next Century Cities @NextCentCit]

Nobody knows their community better than the local leaders who are not only officials but also neighbors. In overlooked towns and cities, we must empower local solutions developed and implemented by the people they benefit. #SubCommTech

[Open Tech Institute at New America @OTI]

The @OversightBoard is right to uphold @Facebook's Trump deplatforming, and to require the company to publish criteria for restoring a suspended account. Read our full statement from @sarmorris: https://t.co/LcUI3OrGia

[Senator Megan Hunt @NebraskaMegan]

It’s a beautiful day to make D.C. a state

[Sarah Morris @sarmorris]

Super excited about this important new report out today from my @OTI colleagues

[Open Tech Institute at New America @OTI]

Why is the tech industry failing on equity? In a new report, @kjbagchi & Brittany Thomas say the problem is twofold: process & personnel.

Read our road map for much-needed change in an industry that continues to produce biased & discriminatory products. https://t.co/PKCd3GSXoJ

[Future Tense @FutureTenseNow]

Happening tomorrow! Don’t forget to RSVP to discuss key efforts towards digital inclusion in India, Pakistan, and the United States with @AmritaChoudhury, @GlobalShaperBLR's @RaashiSXn, Faraz Salim, and @sarmorris https://t.co/7nOD5NTll3

[Lucy C. Dagneau @thelucygoose]

I routinely get asked on conference calls/presentations whether I mean $37,000 per year. It blows people's minds that if you are an adult without children you never quality. Plus a parent loses Medicaid coverage once a disabled child turns 18, leaving them in the gap.

[Sarah Morris @sarmorris]

@rsingel Ugh, some real, personal feels about all of this. Sending healing thoughts and karma for a good litigator.
