🚨 Did you know? 🚨 A DUI isn’t just about alcohol. “Driving under the influence” covers anything that impairs your judgment — alcohol, weed, prescriptions, or other drugs. If it messes with your brain, it can cost lives. Stay sharp. Stay safe. Don’t drive impaired. #DidYouKnow

I was honored to stand with Mothers Against Drunk Driving during their candlelight vigil last week. Their courage in turning heartbreak into advocacy is inspiring. In Congress, I’ll continue my work to make our roads safer.

No one should have to share the road with a driver who is drunk or impaired. Honoring and remembering those who have lost their lives ignites us to keep working for legislative action and social change to ensure that everyone gets to and from their destinations safely.
Last night's vigil reminds us: behind every stat is a life—a parent, child, friend, or loved one who should still be here. Drunk & impaired driving is a choice & too often it ends in tragedy. We’re committed to ending it. Congrats @MADDNational on 45 yrs—there's still work to do.
