In 1943, Willem led a daring operation to attack Amsterdam's public records office. Disguised as a German officer, he and his team destroyed around 800,000 identity documents, crucial for Nazi tracking. This act likely saved many by obstructing Nazi efforts to identify Jews and others. #WWII #Brave

At just eight years old, I opted for the name Alex over Kris. Alex felt strong, neutral, and maybe a little safer. This decision was influenced by teasing—Kris seemed too feminine, like Kristina. Though brief, this choice taught me that selecting a name can be an act of resilience. #Identity #Growth

An an 18-year-old #teen #youth was #shot to #death in her home in #Baltimore on #MothersDay weekend. Violence to and by girls and women is too often de-emphasized. Still too much multifaceted violence. Officials tout homicide reductions but do not forge lasting #holistic, #integrative solutions.

A fifth-grade class from Stafford wrote me about the importance of lowering costs and expanding access to healthy foods. They’re right — and that’s why I couldn’t support this Farm Bill. As the only Virginian on the Ag Committee, I’m working hard to address the concerns of the next generation.
