- .@madeleine asked: “What do you want to accomplish with this speech?” @HillaryClinton answered: “I want to push the envelope as far as I can on behalf of women & girls.” Thoughtful, powerful reflection 25 years after @UN Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing cc @TheAtlanticTwenty-five years ago, I was in Beijing to give a speech about women's rights. Here's how it came together, what it meant, and why—a quarter-century on—I believe it's no longer enough to talk about women's rights. We need to expand women's power. theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…
- Congrats to @ReverendWarnock on his historic win. Well done friend! I know that he will bring to the Senate his life-long commitment to social justice and economic opportunity for all.
- Excited to have @CARE join forces w/@Ripple, global fintech & crypto leaders to launch #PayID, a simple user ID for open payments. Together we're committed to helping make sending money easier & unlocking access to formal financial services for millions worldwide. #PayIDTogether
- “In #Africa, which is 20 percent of the world’s population, only one percent of the population is vaccinated. The global community must do better getting shots in arms. No one is safe until everyone is safe.” #VaccineEquity #COVID19

- Congratulations to @KamalaHarris for this historic win. She is an inspiration for Black and Asian Americans and women everywhere.
- Terminating our relationship with @WHO in the very middle of a global pandemic is self-defeating, short-sighted & downright dangerous. What we need now is investment & cooperation to fight this virus & to work hand in hand w/ vulnerable communities as they try to stop the spread.
- Congratulations to Jon @ossoff on his election to the U.S. Senate. We look forward to his leadership for our state and our nation at a critical moment.
