My father was a farmer, and from him I learned the value of hard work. He was also a volunteer firefighter who showed me what it means to serve others. Most of all, he was my greatest cheerleader. I’m forever grateful for his love, support, and guidance.

Happy Father’s Day.

This should alarm all of us who care about democratic norms and the respect our elected officials deserve.

I had the opportunity to work alongside Senator Padilla during his tenure as California’s Secretary of State and know him to be a dedicated public servant. To see a sitting U.S. Senator treated this way is not only unacceptable β€” it’s infuriating.

I was deeply disturbed to learn that Senator Alex Padilla was forcibly removed and handcuffed at a Department of Homeland Security press conference while trying to ask a question.

I am keeping President Biden in my prayers - for strength, healing, and the unwavering support of those around him. May he feel the love and encouragement of a grateful nation.

Today, we celebrate every woman whose love knows no bounds. Your strength, selflessness, and endless care light the way for others. You give freely, lift others up, and love with a heart so full it transforms everyone you touch. Happy Mother's Day 🩷

A huge congratulations to Justice Allison Riggs.

U.S. District Judge Richard Myers II ordered the North Carolina State Board of Elections to certify the Justice Riggs’ victory from the November election.

Six months after the election, we can finally close this chapter.

More Democratsβ€”nationwideβ€”need to embrace this.

Voters want leaders who hear them, fight for them, and deliver results. We should all follow her lead.

In these uncertain times, Democrats should take notes from leaders who know how to winβ€”and win consistently. I have done just that since 1997.

My approach? Listening to rural voters, addressing their concerns, and cutting through the noise of misinformation.

This quote is quite fitting considering the circumstances.

β€œWe need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity."

It’s sunny β˜€οΈ today in Raleigh. The birds are chirping and the temperature is mild - almost feels like Spring which symbolizes renewal and rebirth. Makes me wonder if 2025 will be a year of new beginnings and growth.

Happy New Year my friends πŸŽ‰

The nation came together in the face of adversity. Let us take a moment to honor their memory, thank our veterans, and reaffirm our commitment to peace and unity.

On December 7, 1941, the attack on Pearl Harbor changed the course of history, claiming the lives of 2,403 service members and civilians and propelling the United States into World War II. We reflect on the courage and sacrifice of the men and women who faced unimaginable challenges that day.

One of my priorities as Secretary of State is to bridge the rural-urban divide, and our Rural RISE initiative aims to begin building that bridge.
