🧵 Last week, I traveled to rural Newbern, Alabama, a predominately Black town of about 275 people. In 2020, Patrick Braxton became the first Black mayor after being the only one to submit the qualifying paperwork. For three years, he's suffered harassment and intimidation.

I’m extremely honored to be this year’s recipient of @FP4America’s NextGen Member of the Year! I’m humbled to be part of a community that has provided me with unwavering support and vital encouragement, all of which has helped me realize some of my proudest accomplishments.

FP4A started its NextGen Initiative to support rising experts and activists in our community, and to identify, connect, and mentor the next generation of leaders who can advance principled American engagement in the world. Mark @akpaninyie is one of those leaders. And for that…

✨ Personal News ✨ I’ve transitioned from @HouseForeign and joined the Administration as Senior Advisor for Asia at @USAIDAsiaHQ! It’s bittersweet leaving Congress, but I’m thrilled to continue working on urgent global challenges & advancing USAID's vision for a #FOIP! 🇺🇸🤝🏾🗽

President @JoeBiden and Vice President @KamalaHarris are in this fight to protect our freedoms, defend our democracy, and put our government on the side of working people. It’s time to do everything we can to make sure they stay in the White House. Let’s finish the job!

Every generation has a moment where they have had to stand up for democracy. To stand up for their fundamental freedoms. I believe this is ours. That’s why I’m running for reelection as President of the United States. Join us. Let’s finish the job. JoeBiden.com

His name is #RalphYarl and I’m sick and tired of this feeling…my heart completely broke when I learned this precious 16-year-old, who accidentally rang the door of the wrong address in an attempt to pick up his siblings, was shot in the head… (1/3)

Tennessee Republicans killed bills to tell eligible high school students how to register to vote and to study the use of college IDs to vote. What’s worse is they did it with secret voice votes and moved TV cameras away from lawmakers so the public couldn’t see how they voted.

This is an incredible work of local news journalism from @NC5PhilWilliams Republicans are abandoning democracy.

We’ve won some big victories for working families in Massachusetts and across the country, but there’s a lot more to do. So today I’m making it official: I’m running for re-election to keep up the fight.

Let’s go vote, Georgia!


Runoff season has begun in Georgia and @MuscogeeDems are prepared to keep this seat blue! With so much confusion, half of the voters I spoke to were unaware that today’s the first day of early voting! Guess who convinced most them to vote today! 😊😁🤗 #WarnockForGeorgia
