I worked with @saalevine at the FTC. He was one of the most thoughtful, creative, and smart people in the room. And he's right. We don't have to live like this. Glad he's on duty for NYC workers and consumers!

No one has worked harder than @LinaKhanFTC to tackle the indignities of everyday life. She has made so many lives materially better, and it was such a privilege to be a part of it.

In perhaps the most on-brand victory ever, our resident UK expert @thepatrickross won this award at the U.K. Speechwriter's Conference in Oxford. We can't say we're surprised—but we're very proud. 🇬🇧🏆
