One of the most reliably motivating things in my life [besides my wonderful and amazing kids and my strong sense of fairness and justice and my stubborn+eternal optimism] is how red and angry the Duolingo app icon looks near the end of the day if I haven't done Duolingo yet. Sorry, Duo!! I'm on it!

It’s been 6 months since Donald Trump started a war because Benjamin Netanyahu asked him to. This war has raised our gas prices, cost us up to $2B PER DAY, killed American soldiers, and has no end in sight. Shame.

President Trump is desperate to pass the SAVE America Act ahead of the midterm elections to install onerous show-your-papers requirements to register to vote and prevent millions from casting our ballots. Demand that your members of Congress hold the line and defend our democracy.

The SAVE Act, the SAVE America Act, and MEGA Act could keep millions of eligible U.S. citizens from being able to vote. Urge Congress to reject these bills.
