Sickle Cell disease affects 100,000 Americans. Having worked w/ patients who have sickle cell disease while at @Parkland, I've seen the real consequences this disease can have. I'll continue to advocate for research for treatments & ultimately a cure. #SickleCellAwarenessMonth — PolitiTweet.org

Judge Amy Coney Barrett is a brilliant legal mind. I hope the Senate will give her a fair & swift confirmation hearing.
