Millions of Afghans are at risk of starvation. @POTUS —their lives are not bargaining chips. “Using aid or releasing funds as a carrot to influence Taliban behavior is the epitome of shooting the hostage in order to punish the hostage taker.”
The problem with writing is that if you don’t know what you’re trying to say, no one else will, either.
Roosevelteers! We are happy to announce our first meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 10th in HUB 260 at 3:30pm. The meeting is open to all new, returning, and interested members. We will also provide free donuts for attendees as a sweet start to the year 🤩🍩
*** new job posting *** The @GoldmanSchool is searching for someone in international development policy. Apply now!!!
Anyone else think it's problematic that members of Congress can freely own defense contractor stocks that see massive returns when we engage in endless, unwinnable wars?
Just impossible to see why our decades-long presence in Afghanistan didn't lead to more popular support.
The faith experts and pundits have in our nation’s covert military drone program is so worrying. The strike in Kabul wasn’t an anomaly. The only leaked data set on drone efficiency suggests we hit the wrong target over 80% of the time. I won’t stop speaking out about this.

So profoundly moved by communities on the front lines of climate change and how they are leading us to a cleaner future, if we actually listen.
Had a great visit to New Mexico last month with @MartinHeinrich and local climate leaders to talk about ways to boost renewable energy development in the Land of Enchantment and across our great nation. @POTUS' #BuildBackBetter agenda is all about JOBS, JOBS, JOBS. 🇺🇸
