I’ll use this moment to introduce myself ✨ I’m a #MedPeds intern at Hopkins and a Texas Native (#hookem). I’m passionate about a lot of things, but recently I’ve just been focusing on what it means to create a world that’s better for Black girls and women.

Today, Dec 18, is the 🎂 of Kevin McCarthy. He died shielding his 2-year-old son from gunfire at the 2022 Highland Park July 4th parade. Kevin’s family described his “irrepressible zest for life,” warmth, charisma, generosity, & his ability to “bring the fun to every situation.”

The American people deserve to know whether an “unofficial co-president” is advancing policies that are good for the country or just good for his own bottom line. https://t.co/Tu4wsU7VvN

To those generous kindred spirits who donated books for the kids in my class' Christmas, thank you. Their faces lit up as they opened their presents & asked, "We really get to take these home & keep them?" I heard one say, "I've never had my own book before."

Remembering Cicely L. Tyson, who was born on this day in 1924. She would’ve been 100 today. Gone but not forgotten!

You want to talk about government efficiency? We waste hundreds of billions a year on health care administrative expenses that make insurance CEOs and wealthy stockholders incredibly rich. Expand Medicare to cover every American.

This week, we passed the reauthorization of the Older Americans Act in the Senate. This bill provides a range of services from transportation to meals to caregiver support and so much more so we can continue caring for our seniors.

This is Congressman Scott Perry (R-PA), who won by only 5,000 votes in 2024. He voted against the Social Security Fairness Act, which would restore social security benefits for 2.5 million retirees. RETWEET to let his constituents know he voted against Social Security!

Today, December 11th, is the birthday of Josephine Grace Gay. She died at 7 at Sandy Hook. From the family’s 2017 5th anniversary memorial: “[Joey] was affectionate and friendly, determined and hardworking, mischievous and fun-loving. She was the girly-est of our girls.”

I stood out in the rain with our police officers, firefighters, and teachers who are fighting back to get the Social Security they earned. Today, thanks to their hard word, @SenSchumer has agreed to bring a vote to the floor to fix this. Fair is fair. Let's get this done.

No matter what the corporate elite tell you, let me make something clear: Universal health care is not radical. A living wage is not radical. Dignity in the workplace is not radical. Higher education without debt is not radical. Affordable housing is not radical.

This is Commissioner Lina Kahn, the Chair of the Federal Trade Commission who is staunchly opposed by Elon Musk. President Biden can reappoint her prior to leaving office in January and protect the Dem majority on the FTC. RETWEET if you think @POTUS should reappoint Lina Kahn!

Apprenticeship programs are good for workers and businesses. They allow workers to earn a good wage while training on the job, and businesses can fill open positions. I’m working to expand these programs so we can keep our workforce and our economy strong.
