Against racism, against fascism, defend democracy. On the 250th anniversary of our nation's founding, reclaim Congress and save democracy. We will not bow to dictatorship, nor remain silent in the face of hatred. 2026: Rise up!

#I'd like to share with you the journey I took to Hallasan Mountain on Jeju Island, South Korea,an experience that remains one of my most cherished memories to this day. 🥰

Last week, it was my honor to visit the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. As I stood on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel where Dr. King spent his final moments, I thought about what Dr. King would see if he looked at America now. What would he think? What would he say?
