Jill Biden brought tears to my eyes. what an amazing woman

she gave voice to the grief and determination we've all been experiencing. Truly, I've been grieving and anxious forour country since November 2016. That grief has been compounded since our horrific COVID pandemic and horribly inept federal response.

It has been hard for me to imagine an end to this madness.

Tonight she gave me hope.
