America lost two great giants in the last year with the passing of Reps John Lewis and Elijah Cummings, champions for equal rights and an even more perfect America. Let’s honor their memory by continuing the fight for justice for all! #BlackHistoryMonth

We need to honor the tragic loss of so many loved ones to COVID-19. One of the best ways to mark the over 500,000 Americans who have died is to pass a new COVID-19 relief package now!

The landing of the Mars Rover Perseverance was years in the making and shows what we can accomplish when we work hard together. Can’t wait for more pictures from space!

Wearing masks while we’re getting everyone vaccinated is just common sense - the reckless discarding of COVID precautions in Texas endangers millions of people and could lead to many more deaths.

America lost a wonderful writer last week - Norton Juster. His classic children’s story, The Phantom Tollbooth, inspired generations of children to love words and to delight in the power of knowledge. And his warnings about the “Mountains of Ignorance” rings true as ever today.
