All day today, I’ve been speaking with community leaders from up and down the state Delaware about the work we have ahead. I’m on the way to another community listening session, but I wanted to share some brief thoughts on the day.
Most importantly, I am committed to listening. Right now, all elected officials need to listen more than we speak and make sure we don’t just listen, but truly hear what our communities are saying.
We’ve been in moments like this before and failed to make the major, structural changes that are required. This time must be different. It must be different.
It’s clear that our institutions that are supposed to provide justice for every American have failed. We must do more than repair them - we must remake them stronger than ever before.
This weekend, congregations around the country are mourning the deaths of more than 100,000 Americans to the COVID-19 pandemic, and tomorrow at noon, I invite you to join me in a brief moment of silence to remember, reflect or pray for those we’ve lost. #WeRemember https://t.co/HGCED4d2s5
In place of our annual Memorial Day ceremony, this morning, hundreds of veterans and many service organizations gathered at the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery. I was honored to be there with General Berry and General Vavala of the DE National Guard & many others. https://t.co/r9XiQgqgkB

My bill called the ASSET Act would also support the delivery of nutrition services by lowering bureaucratic barriers for the SNAP program. This is critical for the many families in need of emergency food.
The @FoodBankofDE will set up mobile pantries in New Castle, Kent, and Sussex Counties to meet increased need for food assistance. Pre-register for your nearest event: 4/20 - https://t.co/ExfxJgfriY 4/22 - https://t.co/J9F03Dr1r4 4/24 - https://t.co/hFAidJyXKw

That’s why I joined my Senate colleagues on a brief with the Supreme Court to explain the ACA's key objective: preventing discrimination against women and reproductive health care.
On this #WorldHealthDay, I’m so thankful for the frontline workers keeping us safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. To the doctors, nurses, paramedics, custodians, pharmacy clerks, and so many others: thank you so much. https://t.co/rPnJZgUivg
