    Of all the titles I've ever had, Momala is my favorite.
  • We must recruit and retain teachers everywhere, especially in underserved communities. We should set up all students to succeed later in life. That starts with giving our teachers the raise and resources they deserve.
  • From lobbying to end segregation policies on her college’s campus, Representative Patsy Mink was a trailblazer from a young age. She would go on to serve in Congress, co-authoring Title IX to provide equal funding for women’s sports and education programs.
  • When our government works to reject LGBTQ* rights and sow division within our communities, there’s never been a more important time to stand together. Show your support for the people with our new pride line.
  • Congratulations to all of today’s graduates. As you go out into the world don’t be constrained by tradition, don’t let anyone tell you what you can’t do, and most of all, speak truth.
  • “I had my hand on a metal baseball bat, just in case. ‘Cause I was going to go down fighting if I was going to go down.” Nate is only 12. Our nation’s leaders have failed our children. I won't:

  • My plan for our nation’s teachers would: ✅Raise the average public school teacher's pay $13,500 ✅Reduce teacher turnover ✅Provide critical support, training, and professional development Read our plan:
  • Together we can build a brighter future not just for ourselves, but for future generations by guaranteeing health care for all, a $15 minimum wage, and more.
  • Crouched in her classroom during a school shooting, Lillian texted her sister, “I know we had fights and everything our whole lives but I’m so glad you’ve been my sister and I really really love you.” We can end this.
  • Governor Sununu's veto is just plain wrong. We need a federal law requiring national paid family and medical leave so no American has to choose between caring for their families or putting food on the table.
  • The response our grassroots organizing program has been amazing so far. People from across our country are ready to join in and help us win this election. Say you’ll join us:
