I'm thrilled today to announce @DemDataExchange as the newest partner of @onwardtogether.
DDx works to revolutionize the use of data within the Democratic and progressive space by radically expanding access to actionable information.
An example: By using data points that DDx gathered from more than 500 participating organizations, canvassers were able to reduce redundant voter contact attempts in 2022 by 50%-80%.
More efficient campaigns means more winning campaigns, and more progress on the values we share.
As @onwardtogether partners, DDx will be part of our network of mentorship, training, and other support.

Today, I was honored to return to the @StateDept and join @SecBlinken in unveiling my official portrait as 67th Secretary of State.
We're delighted to share it with the American public right here, in case you don't make it in person to headquarters in Foggy Bottom anytime soon.
Thank you to artist Steven Polson for his phenomenal work.
When I walked into the State Department as Secretary fourteen years ago, I knew that having the honor to lead the State Department and USAID would be a singular challenge and a unique chance to do good in the world. It was that and so much more.
Of all the trips we took to film Gutsy for @AppleTVPlus, one of the most meaningful was the trip back home to Arkansas. We traveled to the house we first lived in there and talked to women from around the state who took leaps to leave behind the familiar. tv.apple.com/us/episode/gut…
.@canopynwa became part of a national effort to resettle more than 75,000 Afghans who sought refuge when the Taliban took over last year.
In one month, they welcomed 56 new neighbors into 13 homes in Northwest Arkansas.
Carlotta Walls LaNier and Minnijean Brown Trickey are two of the Little Rock Nine—the first Black students to desegregate Central High. They had to walk through threatening crowds simply to get an education.
They are a testament to the power of young people to ignite change.
These are women who surf the seas, rappel down cliffs, and overcome immense obstacles to forge ahead and share their journeys to inspire others. tv.apple.com/us/episode/gut…
Born to immigrant parents, Giselle Carrillo was taught at a young age that the ocean was dangerous. Her determination to conquer her fear led her to learn to surf.
She started Los Courage Camps to encourage the next generation of girls to find their passion too.
Dr. Jane Goodall is indefatigable.
A leader in chimpanzee research and climate change action for over 60 years, breaking glass ceilings along the way, she continues to teach us about our precious planet and the wildlife we share it with.
.@ChelseaClinton and I took a self-defense class, told stories at @TheMoth, worked wood at @Refoundry, and learned how to make acorn soup—all with women fighting for justice.
While starring on @lawandordertv, @Mariska heard from thousands of survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence and child abuse.
She realized that having someone bear witness to your story is the start of justice. It's why she founded @TheJHF.
Katrina Brownlee’s abusive ex-fiancé almost killed her.
She survived and sought healing and justice by creating Young Ladies of Our Future. A mentorship program for young, at-risk women, it focuses on self-esteem, self-awareness, and anti-violence.
.@amyschumer has dealt with endometriosis and an extremely tough pregnancy the way she deals with everything—with comedy aplomb.
She shared how she uses comedy to talk about hard things and, in talking about them, lighten the load for herself and her audiences.
What do you call a card shark in bowling? I call her @iamwandasykes. We should have known we were in trouble when she showed up at the alley with her own ball and shoes.
When she’s not trouncing us on the lanes, Wanda calls out hypocrisy and makes honest truths hilarious.
