Leslie, Carter, and I tightened bolts and got ankle-deep in mulch with @kaboom, @Delta, and the @gpconservancy today to help build a brand-new playground in Grant Park in the #FightingFifth. Thank you to the organizers and every volunteer who made this possible!

Honored to host @RepStricklandWA at our SEA hub last week! Thank you for your leadership and support of @Delta People! We were thrilled to showcase our commitment to the Seattle Tacoma community and great state of Washington as we celebrate our Centennial!

100 years and @Delta continues to soar! In honor of Delta's centennial celebration, I am proud to work with @RepBrianJack to introduce a Congressional Resolution celebrating Delta's continued leadership--in the skies and in our communities. Read more: nikemawilliams.house.gov/posts/congress…

This week, I held a town hall meeting in the #FightingFifth where I heard from dozens of constituents on their concerns. It’s these conversations that I carry with me to Washington and into the work I do. Read more in #NikemasNotes!

Delta Connection flight 4819, operated by Endeavor Air using a CRJ-900 aircraft, was involved in a single-aircraft accident at Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) at around 2:15 p.m. ET* on Monday. The flight originated from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP). Initial reports indicate there are no fatalities and 18 customers with injuries have been transported to area hospitals. Our primary focus is taking care of those impacted. Delta has activated its Passenger Inquiry Center for family and loved ones of customers involved in today’s accident so they can connect with Delta for more information. In Canada, these individuals may reach out via 1-866-629-4775. In the United States, they may connect using 1-800-997-5454. “The hearts of the entire global Delta family are with those affected by today’s incident at Toronto-Pearson International Airport,” said Delta CEO Ed Bastian. “I want to express my thanks to the many Delta and Endeavor team members and the first responders on site. We are working to confirm the details and will share the most current information on news.delta.com as soon as it becomes available. In the meantime, please take care and stay safe.” The flight was carrying a total of 80 people – 76 passengers and four crew. Delta has cancelled its flights to and from YYZ for the remainder of the evening and has issued a travel waiver. Details of the waiver can be found on Delta.com. Delta is working to connect with customers whose flights have been impacted. Customers should also monitor the status of their flight via the Fly Delta app. Endeavor Air is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Delta Air Lines headquartered in Minneapolis. Delta will provide updates at news.delta.com. *Editor’s note: The time of the incident was updated from previous statements.

ICYMI: Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts's latest op-ed in @kansasdotcom highlights the economic benefits of scaling up domestic SAF production. “Besides the environmental impact, scaling SAF would be a windfall for the American economy.” Read his piece here: kansas.com/opinion/guest-…

Check out the graphic below to learn more about clean aviation fuels (CAFs), the economically viable alternative to traditional jet fuel:

Growing America’s clean aviation fuels market is a tremendous economic opportunity that will drive the creation of hundreds of thousands of American jobs while making our nation more energy secure. We look forward to working with members in both parties to build momentum for policies that will make American aviation more sustainable.

@RepDanKildee You will get through this! Sending prayers for strength and healing, Rep Kildee!

I wanted to give my constituents a quick update on my health. A few weeks ago, after consulting with my doctors, I scheduled what I thought was a preventive scan for a swollen lymph node. The results, it turns out, were more significant. 🧵[1/5]

At the Nat'l UNCF #AMIGala, we were delighted to present the Keeper of the Flame Award to a longtime corporate partner—Delta Air Lines. Thank you, @Delta for making possible numerous scholarship awards for our students & sponsorship support for UNCF activities across the country.

More aviators help more people reunite with loved ones, celebrate birthdays or travel the world. Excited to see @Delta creating more opportunities for training and employment. news.delta.com/delta-launches…

I want you to see what I saw today as I was inaugurated as the 63rd governor of Maryland. This is our state in all its beauty. And this is who I’ll fight for every single day that I have the honor of being your governor.

When my kids were younger, I spent so much time with them in the doctor’s office that someone asked me what department I worked in. Now, I spend so much time in the airport, someone asked me if I was a flight attendant. ☺️
