I just got off the Senate floor where I joined Senator Booker who has been speaking since last night. His words remind us: this is not a left or right moment—it’s a right or wrong moment. We must stand up and fight back.

Can’t stop listening to @booker.senate.gov! He is on fire with “plenty of fuel in the tank!” 🔥 THIS is the energy we need in times like these.

So inspiring! Thank you, Senator Booker!
