"When I walked out of the hospital that day, all I had with me was a piece of paper with Mariee's hand prints in pink paint that the staff had created for me." Everyone should be horrified by this. #DontLookAway

What comes next after bearing witness to the violence and cruelty at the border? This comes next. Thank you Chairman @RepCummings for your partnership as we pursue justice for the mothers we held in our arms in El Paso #closethecamps

I have never spoken publicly about my abortion. I'm speaking now because of intensified efforts to strip Constitutional rights from pregnant people and to criminalize abortion. I shared my story in an Op-Ed with @nytimes. https://t.co/AjBxRLtBet

So while cleaning today I came across the coolest pictures. My 6th grade (first ever) and 8th grade science fair. When they could have it at cal expo. It was so amazing to get to go there. I’m honored to get to help the last few years a lead 6-8th grade judge. @SacSTEMFair

Five years. An entire generation of children has lived all or most of their lives without access to clean, safe water. Activists like @LittleMissFlint have been fighting tirelessly for Flint—but we must do better to ensure no community ever faces a crisis like this ever again.

Whoever said water issues couldn’t be entertaining never saw our Dr. Neptune & Professor Flood performance. The kids were mesmerized — and they left with a better sense of the crucial role water plays in our lives. @docneptune @RaeVanderWerf

Congratulations to Katie Bouman to whom we owe the first photograph of a black hole ever. Not seeing her name circulate nearly enough in the press. Amazing work. And here’s to more women in science (getting their credit and being remembered in history) 💥🔥☄️
