Today is Clean the Bay Day! We volunteered at Virginia’s Mason Neck State Park to help pick up trash — We were lucky to see some pretty cool wildlife, reminding us of the many reasons why it’s important to preserve the Chesapeake Bay! @chesapeakebayfdn.bsky.social

US business interests have been conspicuously silent in the face of threats to democracy and the rule of law. In this piece, I discuss how business has politically fractured over time, pursuing narrow, particular policy wins over long term collective interests.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

I spent the past week in DC after speaking on a panel with a group of State AGs at a global summit for the Centre for Information Policy Leadership. I filled the remainder of the week catching up with and learning from experts on data privacy and AI. I am incredibly thankful for everyone’s time.

The #Fulbright Program changed my life. It is a bridge for fostering understanding between Americans and people beyond our borders and deserves our support. On a human level, leaving American scholars abroad and their foreign counterparts in the U.S. in limbo is deeply callous. wapo.st/4kHfEOe
