    When the 1st openly gay @PressSec and the 1st openly trans @HHS_ASH & four-star admiral meet at the @WhiteHouse during #Pride. Proud to be a part of an administration where everyone can see themselves reflected in leadership. We've come so far. Here's to shattering more ceilings.

    It’s always so great to meet with @PressSec — she’s a truly great communicator and understands how to reach people. I’m proud to serve with her in the Biden-Harris administration. It’s always an honor to be in the West Wing to discuss our work together.
