America lost a wonderful writer last week - Norton Juster. His classic children’s story, The Phantom Tollbooth, inspired generations of children to love words and to delight in the power of knowledge. And his warnings about the “Mountains of Ignorance” rings true as ever today.

Big news - school meals will be available this summer! Great that the Department of Agriculture is extending universal meals through the summer - no child should go hungry in America!

Huge thanks to our gun safety heroes in Congress and across America! With your help the House passed two bipartisan background check bills. Now it’s time for the Senate to act to save lives! abcnews.go.com/Politics/house…

Background checks will make sure that we can continue to protect our communities and that guns do not fall into the wrong hands. npr.org/2021/03/02/972…

We need to honor the tragic loss of so many loved ones to COVID-19. One of the best ways to mark the over 500,000 Americans who have died is to pass a new COVID-19 relief package now!
Secretary Pete Buttigieg@SecretaryPete

The CARES Act provided much-needed relief to keep transit running. But transit agencies are not out of the woods and neither are the essential workers who depend on transit. We need an American Rescue Plan, and we need it now.

America lost two great giants in the last year with the passing of Reps John Lewis and Elijah Cummings, champions for equal rights and an even more perfect America. Let’s honor their memory by continuing the fight for justice for all! #BlackHistoryMonth

Heartbreaking that 500,000 Americans have died from COVID - with vaccines rolling out we need to keep wearing masks and social distancing for a little bit longer to keep everyone’s loved ones safe!
