Back to back CA James Madison Foundation Fellows celebrating on this Constitution day. Thanks for the constant support Bryan Shaw, and for always helping me the best version of myself.

Just days away from a potential government shutdown, I want to remind you of three things: Republicans control the House. Republicans control the Senate. Republicans control the White House. If we shut down, you’ll know who is responsible. And if you’d like more information

Grateful for iCivics, & the wonderful resources they produce to help students learn about & engage in civics education. Heard in class today: “I’m gonna play this at home!” “I’m gonna tell my cousin about this!” “My friend’s studying PoliSci, I’m going to tell her about this!”

A working weekend away in my favorite place with my favorite person, Bryan Shaw
