Cory Booker Instagram - I am forever inspired by André De Shields. Not only for his unbelievable catalogue of work, but by the resilience of spirit, the depth of his wisdom and the kindness he exudes. Here is a throwback to the time I saw Hadestown and had the honor of meeting him and hearing his sage advice. His words and entire presence really had an affect on me. 1. Surround yourself with people whose eyes light up when they see you coming. 2. Slowly, is the fastest way to get to where you want to be 3. The top of one mountain, is the bottom of the next. So keep climbing.
Cory Booker Instagram - “Ain’t nothing to it but to do it”
Cory Booker Instagram - We are not defined by what happens to us, but rather how we respond to it
Cory Booker Instagram - 6 Words. 
This story may be apocryphal but I’ve always enjoyed it. May we be kind to one another even and especially amidst the awful, stress and hassle of air travel (or life in general).
Cory Booker Instagram - There is no one better to be than yourself!
Cory Booker Instagram - This International Women’s Day I remember Phillis Wheatley. May her story continue to inspire; may her light continue to illuminate the path we still must walk.
Cory Booker Instagram - For those who have ever felt different... Thank you @simply_madisonjade for the advice
Cory Booker Instagram - I am a sci fi nerd. I grew up consuming so much science fiction. But the first for me was Star Trek. My dad made me watch. He loved the show because it was a boldly hopeful view of what humanity’s future could be, who we could be for each other and to each other. I know Nichelle Nichols was a part of his faith and hope in the future. As MLK told her, for people like my father and myself, she fueled a sense of the possibilities; a sense of exciting future frontiers. Thank you Nichelle. Your light still shines amidst the stars.
Cory Booker Instagram - Know: You are beautiful You are worthy You are capable You are loved
Cory Booker Instagram - I’m not crying 👀 Besides…there’s no crying in baseball
Cory Booker Instagram - This is spot on. Thank you @jamestalarico for your leadership and truth telling. And thank you @joyannreid for amplifying this!
Cory Booker Instagram - Thank you @sallymcmullin for your history lessons and for teaching us the impact of Black Americans throughout our history whose stories are often untold. I am so grateful for you!
Cory Booker Instagram - This video moved me. What a beautiful display of sportsmanship, grace and human goodness.
Cory Booker Instagram - No one, not even Presidents, are above the law.
Cory Booker Instagram - Roland Martin. Thank you @nowweknownews
Cory Booker Instagram - This experience was a welcome reminder and lesson for myself…We are all too quick to judge and too slow to extend grace; to be unconditional in our kindness; or to simply extend some latitude to a person who we have no idea what they are going through or struggling with.
Cory Booker Instagram - An eclipse is rare. Human kindness and service are not.
Cory Booker Instagram - Joe Biden did check in on me, more than once over those days - as he was managing multiple international crises; interviewing for hours with the special counsel; and governing our country. Regardless of your politics, Joe Biden is an exceptional human being. Just some of his super powers are: Empathy; Deep Caring For Others; and Profound Decency. I am graced by his friendship and leadership amidst a crisis.

Cory Booker Instagram - My dad was such a force in life, shaping a world of love and opportunity alongside my mother. He radiated a contagious joy and sense of mischievousness that made life fun. Watching as Parkinson’s related dementia slowly would steal away from his mind… despite the pain and hardship of the disease there were many moments to cherish. And in many ways I saw the best of my father as he grappled with this wretched disease. I also saw the strength of my mother, his primary caregiver. Seeing my mother meet the significant difficulties of being a caregiver opened me up to the enormous challenges faced by millions of people in our country who care for parents, children or other family amidst serious health challenges. We as a country must do more to support them. I am proud to lead legislation to do so. Dementia affects countless American families, there are organizations dedicated to awareness and research. For more information on how to help spread awareness you can visit the Alzheimer’s Association at alz.org
Cory Booker Instagram - Happy Presidents Day!
Cory Booker Instagram - The best revenge…
Cory Booker Instagram - Something *light*hearted for your feed.
Cory Booker Instagram - A powerful reflection from CBS’ Major Garrett on the workers killed when the Key Bridge collapsed in Baltimore that everyone should watch.
Cory Booker Instagram - Sen. @corybooker believes Trump’s felony conviction is a “moment of justice” for the American people. #Colbert
Cory Booker Instagram - #flashbackfriday I love you Cousin!
Cory Booker Instagram - Chlorpyrifos is an incredibly harmful chemical that we spray on foods in the United States. In fact, it’s so harmful that the EU, Canada, and other countries have banned it because it has been definitively proven to harm children’s brains, even in trace amounts. A few months ago the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a ban on this chemical, allowing the its use in the U.S. We have an urgency here, to fight for a permanent ban on the use of this chemical in our country. As a U.S. Senator it is my duty to protect American children and families, and I promise to be a leader in this fight.
Cory Booker Instagram - Sometimes the smallest of acts can have the biggest of impacts. All these years later and I still think about this simple act of kindness from my now friend Nancy Pelosi.
Cory Booker Instagram - “Don’t believe in kings, believe in the Kingdom” Believe in America. Not an individual. Not a single leader. Believe in the idea. Believe in the promise. Believe in our possibility. And then be willing to work for Her. This is truly our greatest hope. As another great lyricist, Langston Hughes wrote: O, yes, I say it plain, America never was America to me, And yet I swear this oath— America will be!
Cory Booker Instagram - A beautiful example of generosity, kindness and grace. These forces are more powerful than selfishness, meanness, and spite. Everyday we have a choice on how to show up. In a world with so many irrational indiscriminate acts of hate; may we choose irrational indiscriminate acts of love.
Cory Booker Instagram - Here is to the many everyday heroes in this world that don’t get attention…but are DOING the work, overcoming challenges and inspiring others to do the same.
Cory Booker Instagram - This is one of my favorite memories from one of my Presidential Primary Debates with Joe Biden. And ultimately I do indeed agree with my mom’s general point: There is so much mocking, meanness and hate; too many who resort to demeaning, debasing and degrading others. What I will always love about Joe Biden is his deep sense of humility and generosity of spirit; his true caring for others; his willingness to listen and try to understand. He has shown me over and over that he is just a truly good human being I’m proud of the things that President Biden has done for the American people. I will be honored to campaign and stand up for him between now and November. I will have much to discuss about his accomplishments. But I know I will inevitably talk about his true heart. Despite difficulties and challenges, despite the inevitable imperfections in all who step forward to lead, he has show a master class in human decency.

Cory Booker Instagram - These extraordinary men are courage personified. On the first day of February in 1960 they went to Woolworth’s in Greensboro, North Carolina and staged a sit in at the segregated lunch counter. At the time their refusal to leave when asked was a radical act of civil disobedience and a further inspiration for the growing Civil Rights movement. Theirs was a triumph of creative activism and brave sacrifice. They helped further inspire millions and further energize a movement. Today may we confront the ugly parts of our history and honor those extraordinary Americans that helped us overcome giving us now a towering testimony to hope hewn from despair and freedom secured through struggle. Our great story Our great struggle Our great nation Black History Month
Cory Booker Instagram - June is Alzheimers Awareness month. This disease hits close to home for my family as it does for so many Americans. Dementia can take away so much, and yet there are also many beautiful moments to treasure nonetheless. For more information on how to get involved in spreading awareness about Alzheimer’s research, you can visit the Alzheimer’s Association at alz.org
Cory Booker Instagram - We cannot forget that our real power is not necessarily to change the world, but to make a world of change to the people we encounter every day. Thank you @bccoralsurgery for uplifting
Cory Booker Instagram - Experiences like this are personal for so many people across our country. May this man’s story of invincible, unyielding and triumphant love inspire you today.
Cory Booker Instagram - Enough. “It may well be that we will have to repent in this generation, not merely for the vitriolic words and the violent actions of the bad people who would bomb a church in Birmingham, Alabama but for the appalling silence and indifference of the good people who sit around and say wait on time.” -MLK
Cory Booker Instagram - Do our words pass 3 filters? It’s hard not to peddle in gossip or spread rumors. And yet when done to us it can feel awful. I found this 3 filter test helpful for me as I work to improve myself. I so admire those in my life who are meticulous with their speech and consistently honorable with their words. Speak thoughtfully and speak with kindness for our language resounds - echoing out and back – as do our deeds.
Cory Booker Instagram - This video of Willie Spence came across my feed and brightened my day…then I learned his story. While his time on this earth was tragically cut short, his journey through music was incredibly inspiring. His gift of song has continued to touch and reach so many, including myself. 

I hope that hearing his voice reminds us not to wait to do what brings us joy. Not to wait to Shine Bright Like A Diamond.
Cory Booker Instagram - I remain against the death penalty in our nation. It is flawed, biased and unjust and on many occasions innocent people have been given a death sentence. This particular execution is a flagrant example of cruel and unusual punishment. It is not the carrying out of justice but the ushering in of more injustice. Again, from Bryan Stevenson: “Proximity has taught me some basic and humbling truths, including this vital lesson: Each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done. My work with the poor and the incarcerated has persuaded me that the opposite of poverty is not wealth; the opposite of poverty is justice. Finally, I’ve come to believe that the true measure of our commitment to justice, the character of our society, our commitment to the rule of law, fairness, and equality cannot be measured by how we treat the rich, the powerful, the privileged, and the respected among us. The true measure of our character is how we treat the poor, the disfavored, the accused, the incarcerated, and the condemned.”
Cory Booker Instagram - May we ask constructive questions and challenge the status quo in order to help bring about an even better tomorrow. Happy Easter to all who celebrate.
Cory Booker Instagram - The lines that divide us are nowhere near as strong as the ties that bind us; despite our very real differences, we share common interests, a common cause, and, incontrovertibly, a common destiny.
Cory Booker Instagram - Studies show that here in America, 80% of Black women feel the need to change their hair in order to ‘fit in’ at their places of work, and the truth is, implicit and explicit biases against natural hair are all too prevalent. This is why I’m proud to have introduced the CROWN Act in the Senate, a bill aimed at ending historical discriminatory practices surrounding natural hairstyles. It’s incredibly heartening to see young girls like Leila Denai not only embrace their natural hair but stand up for herself and inspire others to do the same.
Cory Booker Instagram - Surprise someone with a small act of kindness today. I’d love to hear your story. Comment below or tag me when you do. In a world with too much division, may we never forget that our kindness can multiply. Thanks for the inspiration @mdmotivator
Cory Booker Instagram - Live Love Out Loud
Cory Booker Instagram - It’s my birthday, so please forgive me as I indulge in a dad joke.
Cory Booker Instagram - It’s become abundantly clear reproductive rights are relentlessly under attack by radical right wing politicians who want to ban essential health care services with no exceptions. If these politicians won’t stand up for your health care rights, it’s time to send people to Washington who will.
Cory Booker Instagram - There’s a case before the Supreme Court that will have huge implications not just for reproductive rights but for Americans’ access to healthcare in general. The case has to do with mifepristone, a medication that doctors prescribe to induce an abortion. It’s how most abortions happen. It’s saved the lives of countless women facing pregnancy-related health complications. The FDA first approved Mifepristone 24 years ago after a rigorous four-year process of scientific trials and analysis. The medicine has been used safely and effectively by countless women for more than two decades. Then, last April, a one time anti-abortion activist who became a Trump-appointed federal judge cast aside decades of precedent and issued a ruling imposing a nationwide ban on Mifepristone, declaring that the FDA had improperly approved the drug almost a quarter century ago. It’s not right that one unelected lower court judge with no scientific or medical background can be dictating health care policy for the entire nation. This case is about way more than one drug. If this ban is allowed to stand, any judge anywhere in America can unilaterally decide to ban any medication of any kind they want.
Cory Booker Instagram - Perhaps one of the greatest acts of defiance, despite all that might be going on, is to get up…breathe, and be yourself
Cory Booker Instagram - This Black History Month I think of great Black musicians like Miles Davis who affected us not just with their artistry but also with their genius, their process, their ability to over come challenges and literally transform their reality and ours.
Cory Booker Instagram - On January 21st, 2017 after President Trumps inauguration…500,000 women marched on Washington, and over 5 Million women marched nationwide. Prompted by what a Trump administration threatened to the rights of women, they showed up…and have continued showing up seven years later after their rights were indeed stripped. Today we continue to march until women’s rights are fully restored and Roe is codified.
Cory Booker Instagram - One of my favorite questions to ask young people is ‘if you were the leader of America, and you could make ANY change you want, what would the change be?’ The answers from students from Far Brook School in New Jersey who visited me last year did not disappoint. In fact, they left me with a profound sense of hope. I know that future generations are striving to be the best stewards of this nation.
Cory Booker Instagram - Here’s to those who seek to learn from wise people who are grounded, thoughtful, generous of spirit and relentlessly kind.
Cory Booker Instagram - A gentle reminder…
Cory Booker Instagram - The United States — the land of the free — is home to 1 in 3 women incarcerated worldwide. We are also home to the highest maternal mortality rates among high-income nations, and the risk is even greater for incarcerated pregnant women. That’s why Lauren Underwood, Alma Adams, Ayanna Pressley, and I are championing a bill to end the inhumane practice of shackling pregnant people in prison. It’s time for federal action to protect lives and uphold people’s dignity.
Cory Booker Instagram - Happy Pride Month!
Cory Booker Instagram - No right is ever fully secure, every generation must do the work to secure them, defend them and advance them for the next generation. 154 years ago the 15th amendment of the constitution was ratified. It stated: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.” And now, in the last 10 years, at least 29 states have passed nearly 100 restrictive voting rights laws. We have work to do to ensure that every voting aged American has EQUAL access to vote.
Cory Booker Instagram - A lesson on leadership. “Poor leaders want you to see how powerful they are. But great leaders want you to see how powerful YOU are.”
Cory Booker Instagram - Me (a vegan): *immediately calls therapist*
Cory Booker Instagram - We deserve a food system that works for our health, and not against it. Right now, large multinational factory farms and meatpackers are putting our food system at risk due to their immense buying power and size. The losers are consumers, the environment, independent family farmers, animals and our climate. We need to fix the broken system. We can have a system that promotes health, empowers farmers, protects the environment and treats animals more humanely.
Cory Booker Instagram - They said I was buried. They did not realize, I was a seed. They said to be afraid of the wind and the rain. They didn’t realize, I would become the storm. They told me I would never walk. They did not realize, that I was born to fly. Here is to the spirit of Wilma Rudolph
Cory Booker Instagram - Happy birthday to my brother Cary. I often call him “The Better Booker.” He is a prince of a man and has been often in my life like a third parent, a source of wisdom and guidance and unconditional love. And, very importantly, we have had a lot of fun over the years. Thank you for this particular hard hitting lesson: Fall down 7 times; get up 8.

Cory Booker Instagram - Subsidizing more for ultra processed foods over healthy foods simply must stop. I refuse to give up in this fight until every American has access to affordable and healthy food options, and the farmers growing those healthy options are supported.
Cory Booker Instagram - Wisdom from Mr. Rogers that was so meaningful to me. I hope it is to you also. Take Care. Take Heart. Don’t give up. Don’t give up on yourself. Heal, grow, forgive, forgive yourself. Love thy neighbor as you love yourself. Love yourself better.
Cory Booker Instagram - To the great women, who can be the hardest on themselves, who doubt themselves, harshly judge themselves or sometimes just don’t fully believe in themself — remember you are loved, you are appreciated, you are making a world of a difference even when you might not know it. Thank you for everything you do. Thank you for your perseverant love; your undefeated love; for your loving the best way you know how love; Happy Mother’s Day.
Cory Booker Instagram - Here in Black History Month I give tribute to those great black comedians who restored spirits; exposed absurdities and hypocrisy; reminded us of the depth human condition and power our common humanity; called out injustice; helped us to find healing in humor and laughter amidst the pain; who ultimately advanced our nation through their artistry.
Cory Booker Instagram - “In a world where it means so much to take a man by the hand and sit beside him, to look frankly into his eyes and feel his heart beating with red blood; in a world where a social cigar or a cup of tea together means more than legislative halls and magazine articles and speeches,—one can imagine the consequences of the almost utter absence of such social amenities between estranged races, whose separation extends even to parks and streetcars.” -W.E.B. Du Bois, The Souls of Black Folk
Cory Booker Instagram - Don’t quit. 
Because if you quit, you’ll go back to where you first began. And when you first began…you were desperate to get to where you are right now. 
 Keep going.
Cory Booker Instagram - Take us to church Jennifer Hudson!
Cory Booker Instagram - Freedom? On July 4th we celebrated our independence and freedom but for many, fireworks bring forth memories of gun violence triggering trauma or echoing horrific moments of past pain and fear. It’s a tragic truth that guns are the leading cause of death for children in America. And that a majority of Americans have felt the long reach of the nation’s gun violence epidemic in one way or another. Gun violence is preventable. America is unique in the pervasive level of gun violence that has shattered the lives of too many. When kids are worried whether they’re hearing fireworks or gunshots—we have to ask, what will it take to free our communities from the epidemic of gun violence and death? The answer? We are the answer. Our relentless activism, tireless work, and constant demand. May we celebrate a 4th of July soon where we are free from fear and the epidemic of gun violence is history.
Cory Booker Instagram - Celebrating The Divine Nine
Cory Booker Instagram - From the drafts. ❄️ “Everyone is born an original, but sadly too many die copies” -Abraham Lincoln
Cory Booker Instagram - I so wish you well on your journey today and everyday.
Cory Booker Instagram - Thank you @blackmenaces for always asking the important questions and teaching so many along the way.
Cory Booker Instagram - Excited to join @vp Harris this week and all the great people working to protect our environment, address climate change and advance environmental justice at the League of Conservation Voters. President Biden and VP Harris have done more than any other administration in history for the environment.
Cory Booker Instagram - Watch to the end!
Cory Booker Instagram - Sen. @corybooker and other members introduced legislation to make IVF treatments more accessible, but can it pass the GOP? #Colbert
Cory Booker Instagram - Happy Pi Day!
Cory Booker Instagram - My dad loved Zig Ziglar and would listen to his tape cassettes in his car. This is a Ziglar quote he loved. Today, no matter what we face, may we be resilient, may we persevere, may we rise.
Cory Booker Instagram - May the Fourth be with you.

Cory Booker Instagram - When I came to the U.S. Senate, 10 years ago, I noticed there were too few women staffers in high level positions…stunningly so. I partnered with Senator Schatz, and we worked with Senator Schumer to get every Senate Democratic office to post their staff diversity numbers. With this added transparency and accountability the diversity of our Senate staffs have improved significantly. Diversity in our representative body a strength and better enables our Congress to truly represent all of America and serve our collective interests and common cause. Over half our population in this country is women, and it’s about time the higher echelons of congress better reflect that strength.
Cory Booker Instagram - 51 years ago today the Supreme Court issued the landmark Roe v Wade decision, enshrining abortion rights across the nation. This 7-2 decision quickly turned into a decades-long push on the federal level and across the country to overturn Roe and criminalize and dehumanize all people who can give birth. This nearly 40-year-old effort ultimately led to the overturn of Roe v. Wade by the court’s conservative majority on June 24th, 2022. Thirteen states already had laws on the books that immediately banned abortions, anticipating such a decision, and just one year after the ruling, hundreds of pieces of legislation were introduced across the country to restrict or ban abortion — even in the case of rape, incest, or if someone’s life is endangered by continuing a pregnancy — including a nation abortion ban still being pushed by many Republicans in Congress. Let’s be clear: abortion is health care, and it’s the federal government’s mandate to protect people’s most fundamental rights. As we reflect today on the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, let this be a reminder for all of us that we must redouble our efforts and put in the work so that everyone has the constitutional right to control their medical decisions, health care, and their own body.
Cory Booker Instagram - Such a beautiful moment of representation
Cory Booker Instagram - In 2021 the IRS reported that wealthy tax cheats failed to pay $688 BILLION dollars. This is money that could have made a difference in everything from closing our deficit, to funding public schools. After this report, in 2022 the Biden Administration passed the Inflation Reduction Act that expanded funding to the IRS. In hopes that the incredibly under-resourced function of government could recoup the cheated money...and its working. To this date, the IRS has recouped $520 million. But truthfully this is still only a drop in the bucket. And now that better funding the IRS has proven to work, Republicans are doing everything in their power to stop this progress. Going as far as proposing a $20 billion budget cut to the IRS. It doesn’t take a budget expert to know that allowing the wealthiest taxpayers to get away with cheating actually increases the burden on hardworking American families who play by the rules and pay their fair share.
Cory Booker Instagram - Historically Black Colleges and Universities are pivotal. They provide vital opportunities to so many Black Americans. HBCU’s are the top producers of Black teachers, doctors, engineers, and more. The legacy within the HBCU pipeline is personal for me. My family is a part of that legacy, I am a part of that legacy. That’s why I proudly display memorabilia from these schools in my Senate office, not only as a reminder to myself of where I came from, but as a lesson for others on the impact these schools have made in our society and will continue to make. More Americans should recognize, champion and celebrate our HBCUs. There probably isn’t an American who hasn’t been touched, influenced, benefited or uplifted by an HBCU grad.
Cory Booker Instagram - You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, we’ll rise. Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still we’ll rise.
Cory Booker Instagram - We face some big and growing problems, and we must meet them with big and bold ideas. Together we can make the American dream real for so many more people, especially children. Honored to be featured along some truly inspiring people who are taking action to reduce the racial wealth gap in @time’s The Closers.
Cory Booker Instagram - I’ve seen countless heartwarming videos celebrating teachers this week, and while we continue showing them appreciation I want to be clear the best way to uplift our educators is by paying them what they deserve. 
That’s why I’m pushing to pass a bill called the RAISE Act—Respect, Advancement, and Increasing Support for Educators.  This bill would effectively raise the compensation for educators by up to $15,000. 
It would also double the educator tax deduction to help offset teachers’ purchases of school supplies…create and fund a federal grant program to support and incentivize local educational agencies to increase teacher salaries…and provide labor protections to prevent the tax credit from being used unfairly in labor negotiations—plus more. 
 A bill like this should be a no brainer. By investing in teachers, we’re investing in the future generations of this country.
Cory Booker Instagram - 59 years ago today thousands of brave Americans began a long march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama. It was the activists’ second attempt; a few weeks earlier, the marchers, led by the late John Lewis, were met at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma by a blockade of state troopers who attacked them with billy clubs and tear gas when they refused to disperse. On March 21, 1965, the marchers set out again. They would walk for five days before reaching the state capitol. For all of those who might be feeling discouraged, I hope that the words of Martin Luther King Jr. fortify your spirit.
Cory Booker Instagram - The Senate will soon vote on legislation that provides $95 billion in funding for urgent security needs and to meet the dire need for humanitarian assistance across the world. I will support this bill, even with its flaws, because it’s critical that the United States stand up to address global and democratic security issues and the immense and growing humanitarian needs around the world. One of this bill’s flaws is a provision that would force a sale of TikTok. As written, I don’t support this provision, not because I don’t have concerns about TikTok or its ownership structure — I do — but because I worry that Congress is missing an opportunity to address larger issues with social media in general, from screen addiction, to social media’s negative effects on mental health, to the alarming impact it can have on the well-being of American children, to privacy, to the stunning proliferation of hate speech online, to its use for bullying and intimidation, to its toxic spread of misinformation, and more. Congress should work to address these broader issues in a separate bill and have a separate, full debate of these issues — not stick piecemeal riders onto a must-pass bill. I worry now that the urgency to address the ills of these platforms will be diffused and our ability to come up with real, lasting solutions — while also protecting the benefits of these platforms — will be lost for some time. I know people are frustrated. I am too. We must continue the work though. This is not the last word on these issues.
Cory Booker Instagram - Today, the first day of Women’s History Month, we honor Alice Paul.
Cory Booker Instagram - I am heartbroken by the loss of my friend, Donald Payne, Jr. It was an honor to serve Newark and our nation alongside him for nearly 20 years. His dedication to serving others, his deep human decency, and his love of people is a legacy that will last well beyond his passing.
Cory Booker Instagram - Food Inc. 2, out now, showcases how the odds are stacked against Americans. Together we can build a fair and just food system for all.
Cory Booker Instagram - To all the women who have never stopped believing in and working for freedom.
Cory Booker Instagram - It’s simply not right how major chemical companies are actively trying to overturn the will of the people in so many local cities, towns, and states by lobbying Washington to turn a blind eye on the harms these chemicals threat to our health. Join me and others in this fight. Together we can stop the chemical companies efforts to preempt communities from doing what they know is right for the health and wellness of their towns and states.
Cory Booker Instagram - If we lose bees, we lose humans. It’s as simple as that. And right now the leading cause for the decline in pollinator populations is the use of herbicides and pesticides. We must be vigilant in our fight to keep unnecessary chemicals out of our fields and off of our foods.
Cory Booker Instagram - Thank you @eji_org

So keep climbing.

He loved the show because it was a boldly hopeful view of what humanity’s future could be, who we could be for each other and to each other. I know Nichelle Nichols was a part of his faith and hope in the future. As MLK told her, for people like my father and myself, she fueled a sense of the possibilities; a sense of exciting future frontiers. Thank you Nichelle. Your light still shines amidst the stars.

He radiated a contagious joy and sense of mischievousness that made life fun. Watching as Parkinson’s related dementia slowly would steal away from his mind… despite the pain and hardship of the disease there were many moments to cherish. And in many ways I saw the best of my father as he grappled with this wretched disease. I also saw the strength of my mother, his primary caregiver. Seeing my mother meet the significant difficulties of being a caregiver opened me up to the enormous challenges faced by millions of people in our country who care for parents, children or other family amidst serious health challenges. We as a country must do more to support them. I am proud to lead legislation to do so. Dementia affects countless American families, there are organizations dedicated to awareness and research.

A few months ago the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a ban on this chemical, allowing the its use in the U.S. We have an urgency here, to fight for a permanent ban on the use of this chemical in our country.

He has shown me over and over that he is just a truly good human being I’m proud of the things that President Biden has done for the American people. I will be honored to campaign and stand up for him between now and November. I will have much to discuss about his accomplishments. But I know I will inevitably talk about his true heart.

This particular execution is a flagrant example of cruel and unusual punishment. It is not the carrying out of justice but the ushering in of more injustice. Again, from Bryan Stevenson: “Proximity has taught me some basic and humbling truths, including this vital lesson: Each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done. My work with the poor and the incarcerated has persuaded me that the opposite of poverty is not wealth; the opposite of poverty is justice. Finally, I’ve come to believe that the true measure of our commitment to justice, the character of our society, our commitment to the rule of law, fairness, and equality cannot be measured by how we treat the rich, the powerful, the privileged, and the respected among us. The true measure of our character is how we treat the poor, the disfavored, the accused, the incarcerated, and the condemned.”

Likes : 14114Cory Booker - 13.5K Likes - There’s a case before the Supreme Court that will have huge implications not just for reproductive rights but for Americans’ access to healthcare in general. The case has to do with mifepristone, a medication that doctors prescribe to induce an abortion. It’s how most abortions happen. It’s saved the lives of countless women facing pregnancy-related health complications. The FDA first approved Mifepristone 24 years ago after a rigorous four-year process of scientific trials and analysis. The medicine has been used safely and effectively by countless women for more than two decades. Then, last April, a one time anti-abortion activist who became a Trump-appointed federal judge cast aside decades of precedent and issued a ruling imposing a nationwide ban on Mifepristone, declaring that the FDA had improperly approved the drug almost a quarter century ago. It’s not right that one unelected lower court judge with no scientific or medical background can be dictating health care policy for the entire nation. This case is about way more than one drug. If this ban is allowed to stand, any judge anywhere in America can unilaterally decide to ban any medication of any kind they want.

Prompted by what a Trump administration threatened to the rights of women, they showed up…and have continued showing up seven years later after their rights were indeed stripped. Today we continue to march until women’s rights are fully restored and Roe is codified.

In fact, they left me with a profound sense of hope. I know that future generations are striving to be the best stewards of this nation.

We are also home to the highest maternal mortality rates among high-income nations, and the risk is even greater for incarcerated pregnant women. That’s why Lauren Underwood, Alma Adams, Ayanna Pressley, and I are championing a bill to end the inhumane practice of shackling pregnant people in prison. It’s time for federal action to protect lives and uphold people’s dignity.

America is unique in the pervasive level of gun violence that has shattered the lives of too many. When kids are worried whether they’re hearing fireworks or gunshots—we have to ask, what will it take to free our communities from the epidemic of gun violence and death? The answer?

This 7-2 decision quickly turned into a decades-long push on the federal level and across the country to overturn Roe and criminalize and dehumanize all people who can give birth. This nearly 40-year-old effort ultimately led to the overturn of Roe v. Wade by the court’s conservative majority on June 24th, 2022. Thirteen states already had laws on the books that immediately banned abortions, anticipating such a decision, and just one year after the ruling, hundreds of pieces of legislation were introduced across the country to restrict or ban abortion — even in the case of rape, incest, or if someone’s life is endangered by continuing a pregnancy — including a nation abortion ban still being pushed by many Republicans in Congress. Let’s be clear: abortion is health care, and it’s the federal government’s mandate to protect people’s most fundamental rights. As we reflect today on the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, let this be a reminder for all of us that we must redouble our efforts and put in the work so that everyone has the constitutional right to control their medical decisions, health care, and their own body.

This is money that could have made a difference in everything from closing our deficit, to funding public schools. After this report, in 2022 the Biden Administration passed the Inflation Reduction Act that expanded funding to the IRS. In hopes that the incredibly under-resourced function of government could recoup the cheated money...and its working. To this date, the IRS has recouped $520 million. But truthfully this is still only a drop in the bucket. And now that better funding the IRS has proven to work, Republicans are doing everything in their power to stop this progress. Going as far as proposing a $20 billion budget cut to the IRS. It doesn’t take a budget expert to know that allowing the wealthiest taxpayers to get away with cheating actually increases the burden on hardworking American families who play by the rules and pay their fair share.

That’s why I’m pushing to pass a bill called the RAISE Act—Respect, Advancement, and Increasing Support for Educators.  This bill would effectively raise the compensation for educators by up to $15,000. 
It would also double the educator tax deduction to help offset teachers’ purchases of school supplies…create and fund a federal grant program to support and incentivize local educational agencies to increase teacher salaries…and provide labor protections to prevent the tax credit from being used unfairly in labor negotiations—plus more. 
 A bill like this should be a no brainer. By investing in teachers, we’re investing in the future generations of this country.

It was the activists’ second attempt; a few weeks earlier, the marchers, led by the late John Lewis, were met at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma by a blockade of state troopers who attacked them with billy clubs and tear gas when they refused to disperse. On March 21, 1965, the marchers set out again. They would walk for five days before reaching the state capitol. For all of those who might be feeling discouraged, I hope that the words of Martin Luther King Jr. fortify your spirit.

It was the activists’ second attempt; a few weeks earlier, the marchers, led by the late John Lewis, were met at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma by a blockade of state troopers who attacked them with billy clubs and tear gas when they refused to disperse. On March 21, 1965, the marchers set out again. They would walk for five days before reaching the state capitol. For all of those who might be feeling discouraged, I hope that the words of Martin Luther King Jr. fortify your spirit.
Likes : 6897Cory Booker - 6.8K Likes - The Senate will soon vote on legislation that provides $95 billion in funding for urgent security needs and to meet the dire need for humanitarian assistance across the world. I will support this bill, even with its flaws, because it’s critical that the United States stand up to address global and democratic security issues and the immense and growing humanitarian needs around the world. One of this bill’s flaws is a provision that would force a sale of TikTok. As written, I don’t support this provision, not because I don’t have concerns about TikTok or its ownership structure — I do — but because I worry that Congress is missing an opportunity to address larger issues with social media in general, from screen addiction, to social media’s negative effects on mental health, to the alarming impact it can have on the well-being of American children, to privacy, to the stunning proliferation of hate speech online, to its use for bullying and intimidation, to its toxic spread of misinformation, and more. Congress should work to address these broader issues in a separate bill and have a separate, full debate of these issues — not stick piecemeal riders onto a must-pass bill. I worry now that the urgency to address the ills of these platforms will be diffused and our ability to come up with real, lasting solutions — while also protecting the benefits of these platforms — will be lost for some time. I know people are frustrated. I am too. We must continue the work though. This is not the last word on these issues.

His dedication to serving others, his deep human decency, and his love of people is a legacy that will last well beyond his passing.

Join me and others in this fight. Together we can stop the chemical companies efforts to preempt communities from doing what they know is right for the health and wellness of their towns and states.

And right now the leading cause for the decline in pollinator populations is the use of herbicides and pesticides. We must be vigilant in our fight to keep unnecessary chemicals out of our fields and off of our foods.
