Nancy Pelosi: Accomplished Legislator

Speaker Nancy Pelosi will go down as one of most accomplished legislators in American history—breaking barriers, opening doors for others, and working every day to serve the American people. I couldn’t be more grateful for her friendship and leadership. pic.twitter.com/zRYtKXVX88

Just The Beginning

I’m so proud of the young women I met in Hawaiʻi.

They’re teaching their peers about mental health, tutoring classmates in coding, and educating their community about the criminal justice system.

For them, this is just the beginning. I can’t wait to see what they do next. 💕 pic.twitter.com/xmTk0eQe4Z
