During my post match press conference at Roland Garros I was asked about my summer calendar and since then I have been practicing on clay. It was announced yesterday that I will play at the summer Olympics in Paris, my last Olympics.

We are committed to expanding access to affordable high-quality pre-k across Massachusetts.
In partnership w/ the Legislature, we delivered $16 million already this year & w/ $1.7 million more now, we’re making the necessary investments to reach more kids in more communities.

We've all had a teacher that made an impact on us, like Mrs. Sessions. As a teacher himself, Secretary @PatrickTutwiler knows that they deserve our appreciation all year - but especially this week. #ThankATeacher

Child care is infrastructure. It’s what lets people get back to jobs they put on pause, or enter the workforce for the first time.
This morning, I joined the @WhiteHouse team and fellow Governors to talk about how we're making child care work in Massachusetts.
Abby Fee retweeted
In MA we know that child care plays an essential role in driving the state’s economy and competitiveness forward. That’s why @MassGovernor tasked her administration with taking a whole-of-government approach to make high-quality child care more affordable and accessible.
Abby Fee retweeted
“If states—and the federal government, for that matter—want to see what a comprehensive approach to child care reform looks like, they could hardly do better than to look to Massachusetts.”
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves!

In the wake of affirmative action being overturned, we released guidance with @MassAGO so K-12 schools and colleges can keep pursuing programs that support historically underrepresented students in achieving their higher education.

I am delighted the Senate confirmed Julia Kobick to the US District Court for Massachusetts where she'll serve with intellect, integrity and sound judgment. Ms. Kobick is now the 150th judge and 100th woman nominated by @POTUS to be confirmed!

Creating jobs means we need workers to fill them. That's why on the campaign trail, I proposed MassReconnect, a policy to make community college free for those 25 and up without a degree.
We've now launched that program, expanding opportunity for students across the state.

Sec @PatrickTutwiler is thrilled @MASchoolsK12 Board just unanimously approved a new Health and Physical Ed Curriculum Framework, allowing ALL of our students to access comprehensive, LGBTQ+ inclusive, and medically accurate guidelines for achieving mental and physical health!

By investing in our students, we are investing in the future of our Commonwealth and strengthening our workforce and communities. That’s why the FY24 budget signed by @MassGovernor expands access to in-state tuition to undocumented students in MA - because their success is ours.
Abby Fee retweeted
Our budget makes a historic investment in education because when our students reach their potential, Massachusetts does too.

Freedom isn’t using the First Amendment as a license to slam the door on LGBTQ+ customers.
Freedom is the ability to live and love openly without fearing discrimination.
We’ll always stand up for freedom and equality because it’s never been about a cake or a website.
Breaking News: The Supreme Court said a designer in Colorado had a First Amendment right to refuse to create websites for same-sex weddings despite a state law that forbids discrimination against gay people.
