HOLY SH*T!!! President Biden is unveiling a new Office of Gun Violence Prevention, which will be headed by Vice President Kamala Harris!
In the face of constant MAGA Republican obstruction on gun violence, I'm glad to see our elected leaders have not given up the fight!
Thank you for doing everything you can to save lives, President Biden! 🙏💪

GOOD NEWS: The Department of Justice has rescinded former Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ charging and sentencing memo, which mandated that federal prosecutors almost always pursue the harshest charges and stiffest penalties.
This is critically important. huffpost.com/entry/doj-biden…

This is exactly right.
It was @JoeBiden's biggest day. Yet he made it about a young poet, a historic vice president, a grieving nation, teachers, healthcare workers; he made it about all of us.
Truly the exact opposite of the past 4 years.

President Trump’s press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, gave us a heavy book that she described as the president’s health care plan. It was filled with executive orders and congressional initiatives, but no comprehensive healthcare plan. cbsn.ws/34qeB0b
