This is a win for Kansans, our families, and our rights. We rejected extremism and chose a path forward that protects all Kansans’ ability to make their own choices, without government interference.
I will not stand by while this President and his cronies try to tear apart this constitutionally-mandated institution piece by piece in order to serve their political agenda.
The Postmaster General must be removed.

greeted us with open arms. Today, he nominated Deb as our next Secretary of the Interior.
Here's to making history again, friend. 💙
It's called the 2019 novel coronavirus, or COVID-19. Calling it the "Chinese virus" does nothing but add to the xenophobia Asian-Americans are already experiencing and make it harder to contain the disease.
Let's lead with compassion instead of division and fear.
I am honored to be a part of this time in history when so many new voices are being included in our national discussion. It will be a special privilege to serve alongside
@Deb4CongressNM
. I am inspired by the work she has done for her community & am grateful for her friendship.
Today, I will uphold my oath of office and vote for both articles of impeachment.
This is a sad moment for our country. But we must continue to make progress on the issues impacting our community, and that is exactly what I intend to do.

Thank you to my 5 fellow Dem candidates, who were each a part of energizing our district throughout the primary. I look forward to working w/ them & all of you to change the face of KS politics.
As my first official act as Governor, I am reinstating protections to state employees who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. EO 2019-02 restores rights that were taken away in recent years.
Discrimination of any kind has no place in Kansas. It will not be tolerated.
I’m honored to serve as a Vice Chair of the National Democratic Convention as we unite around the critical task of electing
@JoeBiden
and
@KamalaHarris
this November. Who's ready?
Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day! Today we celebrate the contributions that Native peoples have made to the country's history, while recognizing the persecution and discrimination that our peoples have faced for centuries in our ancestral homelands.
Did you go to a community college? Quote tweet this and say which community college you attended and what you're doing today. I'll retweet as many as I can. People who attend community colleges deserve to be as proud as people who attend Harvard.
From a six-way primary four years ago, to running unopposed today, I’m honored to be the Democratic nominee for Congress in the Kansas Third.
I'll continue to work across the aisle to move Kansas forward, and I look forward to again earning

Turns out those pushups did pay off! 💪🏽I drew 64/85 in the office lottery, 😬but still managed to score this space. 🙌🏽 Can’t wait to start welcoming constituents on Jan. 3!
As we learn more about the victims of Wed’s horrific shooting in CA, our hearts break for their families & the brave first responders. While we mourn the lives that were lost, we recommit to meaningful changes to help stop these senseless tragedies that are all too frequent.

My mom is a postal worker. She works every day to help people ship and receive goods, from prescription drugs to mail-in ballots.
Now, when we're relying on USPS more than ever, it's irresponsible & down right dangerous to push through massive changes.
As we continue our campaign to expand and create opportunity for everyone in our community, I can think of no better partner than
@BarackObama
. I am proud to have his support.
#KS03
Today, I’m proud to endorse even more Democratic candidates who aren’t just running against something, but for something—to expand opportunity for all of us and to restore dignity, honor, and compassion to public service. They deserve your vote:
Too many people have the odds stacked against them. I know what that's like. I’m running for Congress b/c everyone deserves an opportunity - and that starts with affordable healthcare, safe communities & quality education.
Help us share our message:

@ShariceDavids
made history in 2018 becoming the first of two Native American women to serve in Congress, and the first openly LGBTQ person to represent Kansas in Washington. We need to keep her in the House and in the majority—we’re proud to endorse her historic campaign.
I'm honored to serve in this role and look forward to working closely with members of our Midwest region to make sure Kansas priorities are front and center in the Democratic Caucus.
Thank you to the U.S. Senate for your confirmation vote today. As Secretary of

It’s been one year since we launched our campaign for Congress. Thanks for standing with me as we stood up for health care, for education, & for our future. Together, we made history. This year, we’ll continue our work to put Kansans first, so everyone can have a shot at success.
This amendment would have opened the door to extreme, total bans on abortion.
Tonight, Kansas closed it.
In November, we’re going to bolt it shut.
Chip in to help us continue the fight⤵️
The American people have made their voices heard. They chose an incredible leader in

An excellent choice! We all need to be united in defeating Donald Trump this November, and with
@JoeBiden
and
@KamalaHarris
on the ticket, that’s exactly what we’ll do.
Let’s get to work. 👊🏽
BREAKING: Joe Biden picks California Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate, making her the first Black woman on a major party presidential ticket. Harris, a 55-year-old first-term senator, is one of the party's most prominent figures.
On this Christmas Day, I’m thinking about the families affected by our government shutdown. Many of our civil service employees are working hard, despite uncertainty about their paychecks. I’m grateful for them and their families.
The first public polling since the primary has us up on Republican Rep. Kevin Yoder by 3 POINTS. With your help, we can win this election and change the face of Kansas politics. Will you join us?

Indigenous people have been here for centuries, survived atrocities & persecution, and continue to carry on amazing, diverse traditions.
But today is a first. For the first time ever, we have a president who officially recognizes

Reminder: The President does not have the power to delay the election, only Congress does. His tweet only serves to create chaos and undermine our democracy.
Whether you vote on or before November 3, let's make sure he doesn't get another four years in the White House.
I ran for office to make sure everyone has the same opportunity to succeed that I did.
We began our campaign with 3 people around a kitchen table.
