11/8/2016- Trump wins WH. Trump appoints 3 Supreme Court justices who share his radical vision. Court overturns Roe; guts affirmative action and stymies efforts to provide student loan relief to so many. Elections have consequences. 493 days til the election. Don’t get mad. Vote

The former First Lady’s reflections on the Supreme Court decision in affirmative action cases really spoke to me. As a proud beneficiary of affirmative action, I saw first hand the importance of having people of all backgrounds coming together to find common ground.

This is a wonderful tribute to a wonderful man who left us way too soon. A champion for economic and racial justice. William Spriggs, economist who highlighted racial disparities, dies at 68 https://t.co/cKR9CD90S4

Julie Chavez Rodriguez is a superstar. A person of great integrity, accomplishment and humility. I had the privilege of serving with her on Team Obama. Her father, Arturo Rodriguez, former head of UFW, is very proud today, as must be her grandpa,Cesar Chavez. Great choice!

Earlier this week, we marked the 55th anniversary of MLK’s assassination in Memphis. He was standing up for sanitation workers-jobs and justice. The actions of Republicans in Tennessee to expel two black lawmakers involved in peaceful protest is a low moment for democracy.

When I led the Civil Rights Division at USDOJ, I had the privilege of interacting with and learning from titans of the movement. Judy Heumann was one of them. RIP my friend. https://t.co/vg4HWIw5Xh

So excited for Julie Su! I have known her since the mid 1990s, when we worked together to assist Thai garment workers who were ruthlessly exploited in Los Angeles. She will partner with workers and businesses to create shared prosperity. Great choice! https://t.co/XxhWO9lbsq

Congrats to @DelArianaKelly on her selection for the Md state Senate vacancy in District 16. Soon to be Senator Kelly: you are a star and will continue to be a champion for reproductive freedom and basic fairness! You will continue to make Maryland proud!

A Super Bowl for the ages is decided by a terrible call by the official. I am Buffalo bills fan, so I was just rooting for a good game. Terrible terrible call. That is what will be discussed.

News flash: Republicans agree not to cut Medicare and Social Security. Great work by President Biden in securing this commitment.

The labor market is off to a strong start this year with 517,000 jobs added in January, an unemployment rate at a historic low of 3.4%, and wage growth that continues to decelerate, slowing down to 3.7% at an annualized rate (down to 4.4% growth over the last year).

Jeff is a star! Jeff was indispensable during Obama-Biden in enactment of key rules to protect workers and safeguard health care. As Labor Sec, I had a front row seat to his excellence. Great hire! https://t.co/hUmkjMWejT

Congrats Ron on a job well done! The Biden administration accomplished so much during the first two years, thanks in no small measure to your steady hand.
