- Nobody should have to decide between their safety and their right to vote. My new bill with @WhipClyburn & @SenKamalaHarris, the VoteSafe Act, expands vote-by-mail and early voting to ensure voting is safe and accessible.
- No man, woman or child should go hungry in one of the world’s wealthiest nations. We should never accept this as normal.
