Happy birthday to two great Americans—Aunt Bobbi and President Truman 💙
May 8 was the birthday of my late wife Barbara. She proudly shared it with Harry Truman. Last night I was at the Os/Nats game with my niece Shannon Ross, great granddaughter of Truman’s Press Secretary Charlie Ross. Her father John wrote a wonderful book Truman’s Trusted Friend.

Dad’s book gaining special fans this Christmas 💚📕🎄
Such a terrific book that the entire family gets it for Christmas. “Harry Truman’s Trusted Friend” profiles his beloved childhood friend and press secretary Charlie Ross. A labor of love by his grandson John Ross who finished the manuscript just before passing away last May.

On this day in 1972 we hired Coach Thompson to lead our Hoyas. 49 years later our team, led by his protege, has won the Big East Championship and will head to the NCAA Tournament. Congratulations Coach Ewing. Hoya Saxa!

Conference panels look a little different in 2020 but it is always good to be able to talk with friends about the federal agenda for affordable housing and how we can work together to improve our communities. Many thanks to @illinoishousing and @FifthThird for having us!

We've been advocating for a minimum 4% Housing Credit rate because the rate was already too low to make many critically-needed affordable housing developments feasible. Now it just dropped even more - to 3.08 percent for May. It's time for Congress to set a 4% floor.
