For #pride , let us celebrate and remember Glenn Burke, a Black baseball player who was the first MLB player to come out as gay in the 1980s. Burke passed away from complications related to AIDS in 1995.

Today's Supreme Court decision is a denial of opportunity.

It’s not about being colorblind. It’s about being blind to history, blind to empirical evidence about disparities, and blind to the strength that diversity brings to classrooms.

I have over $200k of education debt because I grew up poor and believed in the American Dream.

This country profits from selling poor kids high interest rate edu loans.

Corrupt justices who accept lavish gifts sided with the rich and powerful over hard-working Americans.

I just can't understand why some people who pay very close attention to politics still insist on blaming Joe Biden and 'Democrats' for problems that Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema have caused by refusing to eliminate the filibuster.

Every few months I remember this exists and find new reasons to love it.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor said the Supreme Court’s decision on Friday siding with a web designer opposed to same-sex marriage was “profoundly wrong.” In a scathing dissent, Sotomayor said the ruling will “mark gays and lesbians for second-class status.” nyti.ms/3NAH092

Today, billboards just like these went up across Florida and Texas.

Happy Pride everyone.

On the Titan, five people died on an expensive excursion. Off the coast of Greece, perhaps 500 people fleeing poverty and violence died. The rescue efforts, and the attention paid to each, fueled a debate about the realities of class and ethnicity. nyti.ms/3CLiPjl

The coordinated use of deceptive advertising tactics by anti-abortion fake clinics is not only extremely unethical— but is a direct threat to public health.

The CT House of Reps has an opportunity to stand up for #votingrights & #racialjustice by passing SB 1226, the John Lewis Voting Rights Act of CT—but it must call a vote by June 7. The #CTHouse should not miss this chance to make CT a national civil & voting rights leader!

Memorial Day is a day of remembrance. We remember those no longer with us. We remember what they fought for. We remember the sacrifice they made while serving our country. Forever and always, we honor their legacy.

What an incredible season. Congratulations on your 5th NCAA Championship, UConn Huskies.

After the White House visit with @uconnmbb on Friday, I was invited by one of the photographers to photograph @potus as left from the South Lawn on Marine One to Camp David. I could not say no to this once in a lifetime opportunity #thankful #grateful

36 NCAA Tournaments.
Six Final Fours.
Eight All-Americans.
Five titles.

And after all that, people still counted UConn out.

You proved them wrong.

The University of Connecticut Huskies (UConn Huskies) women’s basketball team holds the record for the longest win streak in college basketball history, men’s or women’s, with 111 consecutive victories from 2014 to 2017. 🐺

The Connecticut Senate unanimously passed Senate Bill 5, to protect victims of domestic violence. A priority bill of the CT Senate Democrats, this legislation builds on our past efforts. Thanks to Senator Sen. Gary Winfield for leading the effort and Senator Mae Flexer for her advocacy.

Puerto Ricans are United States citizens. Don’t take it for granted that others know. A retweet 🟰 knowledge.

Some big news today…

At the same time Justice Clarence Thomas was accepting lavish gifts from a billionaire GOP donor, his colleague Justice Elena Kagan declined a gift of lox and bagels from high school buddies because she thought it could violate the court's ethics rules.
