This is great leadership from @NBA. Hope you will take a moment to make sure you are registered to vote: https://t.co/XbWzfrLIHY. Never to early to make a voting (or basketball) plan! https://t.co/6u9nsH7R7j
I'm proud of the @NBA for encouraging fans to vote by not scheduling any games on Election Day. Organizations throughout the country, both big and small, should take similar common sense steps in order to make it easier for people to vote.
SCOOP: The 2022 @NBA schedule will show NO Election Day games.
Instead, all 30 teams will play the Monday before on a themed “civic engagement night,” to encourage fans, players and staff to vote in this year’s midterm elections.

Salman Rushdie has lived his life courageously and refused to let intimidation silence him, his art, and what he stands for. I am keeping him in my thoughts and praying for his recovery.
We called the @ClintonGlobal community back together this year because we face an urgent and historic moment. I’m ready to work alongside these incredible leaders and take action together.

NEW: President @BillClinton, Secretary @HillaryClinton, and @ChelseaClinton just announced the initial #CGI2022 lineup of participants.
Details on this year’s program to drive action on climate, health equity, economic growth, the refugee crisis, & more: https://t.co/CqaKjpjKeB
We know the effects of a nuclear disaster are profound. Operations in and around the Zaporizhzhia plant continue to escalate. I urge Russia to suspend its operations immediately—for the sake of Ukrainians, their neighbors including Russians, and the future of all our people. 2/2
We cannot let Zaporizhzhia become the next Chernobyl.
In 1986, Chernobyl's calamitous nuclear meltdown contaminated 100,000 sq km in three countries, forced the evacuation of 350,000 people, and left a zone around the plant that will remain uninhabitable for 20,000 years. 1/2
I’m deeply concerned of reports of military activity in and around the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in Ukraine. The recklessness of these attacks endangers the people and risks instability in the region. IAEA inspectors need access to the plant in order to avoid a real calamity.

David McCullough told America’s stories like no one else. I join his millions of readers and admirers in giving thanks for his life and work.
This week @POTUS struck a serious deal to cut drug prices for people on Medicare and fight climate change, received a stellar July jobs report, shrank the unemployment rate to 3.5%, eliminated bin-Laden’s successor, & gas prices fell to a 50+ day low. Great week, Mr. President!
Action is on the agenda for this year’s @ClintonGlobal—for climate, economic inclusion, reproductive health and equity, and so much more.
Join us this September. https://t.co/FZpqVmgqp0
Bill Russell was a legendary player and coach, and an even better person. He approached everything he did with determination, principle, and wisdom. I will always be grateful for the chance to call him my friend.
I urge the Senate to take up this legislation quickly, and to come together across party lines to pass it. We owe it to our children, grandchildren, and to each other. 4/4
In fact, a recent study found that Americans were 70 percent less likely to die in a mass shooting during the decade the Assault Weapons Ban was in effect. 3/4
We know this law will work, because it has worked before. After I signed the same ban into law in 1994, there was a decline in mass shooting deaths, and they rose sharply after it was allowed to lapse in 2004. 2/4
The House’s passage yesterday of the Assault Weapons Ban Act of 2022 is an important step to reduce mass shootings and make America safer for all. 1/4
Our ask for @ClintonGlobal is simple — take action together on the most pressing threats we face today. If you’re in the business of how to get things done, we’ll see you in September.
“This year’s meeting is focused not only on the most important challenges we face but more critically on how all of us can take action.”

Too many people who are suffering do so in silence or without the support or care they need. If you or someone you know needs help dealing with a suicidal, mental health, or substance-use crisis -- call tel:988 (@988Lifeline) right away.
On International Rock N Roll Day, I'm listening to and remembering one of the greatest of all time, Ronnie Hawkins. There will never be anyone else quite like The Hawk!
Jerry McEntee was an outstanding labor leader who spent his life fighting for America’s workers. His early support in 1992 gave a big boost to my campaign when I needed it most. I'll always be grateful to him.
AFSCME, the labor movement and the nation have lost a legend with ‘the heart of a lion,’ as President Bill Clinton described him. #1u https://t.co/j10vZY5yYD
