With their third Super Bowl win in just five seasons, the Kansas City Chiefs aren’t just champions today – they’re a dynasty.
Congratulations, Chiefs Kingdom.
Ready to welcome this team back to the White House.

Fire fighters and other dedicated public servants deserve a dignified retirement. Let Congress know it’s time to repeal the Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset.

Sept. 11 is a testament to the true spirit of fire fighters and rescue workers. Today, we honor those who sacrificed everything to save others and stand with those suffering from WTC-related illnesses. Their resilience is a reminder of the lasting impact of that fateful day.
Today and every day, we remember. 🇺🇸🙏 #Sept11 #NeverForget

On January 6, 2021, Josh Hawley showed us he’s a fraud and a coward.
Missourians deserve a U.S. Senator who’s willing to stand and fight. That’s why I’ve decided to take him on.

There is a certain stillness at the center of the Christmas story: a silent night when all the world goes quiet.
And all the clamor, everything that divides us, fades away in the stillness of a winter’s evening.
I wish you that peace this Christmas Eve.

The IAFF will never forget the 343 FDNY members who lost their lives during the worst terrorist attack in American history. We will always remember the families of our fallen, including the members who have succumbed to World Trade Center related illnesses. #NeverForget #911

Today, we remember.
Today, we reflect.
Today, we hold our people closer.
Today, we teach our firefighters in the firehouses about duty, sacrifice and the mission.
Today, we weep.
Tomorrow, we will be stronger and wiser.

Everything we have (or don’t have) on the job is decided by elected officials. If we’re not at the table, we are going to be on the menu. Firefighters have a powerful voice in the halls of power, but only when we stand together. #forwardtogether #unionstrong @chulavistafire

I’ve proposed a minimum tax for billionaires.
Congressional Republicans have proposed increasing taxes on teachers and firefighters.

The middle class built America — and unions built the middle class. Everything that supports a middle-class life was made possible by unions. On Labor Day, we honor all those workers — and their enduring movement — that keep our economy moving and make our nation strong.
