I am honored to receive the Internet Association’s 2019 Internet Freedom Award.

Today Jared, Ambassador Lighthizer and I visited the battlefields of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. July 1–3, 1863 marked a turning point in the Civil War as the Union army halted the northern advancement of Confederate troops. The largest number of casualties of the entire war were sustained during these 3 days in 1863. The battlefields are meticulously preserved so visitors can experience a visual history of one of the most significant battles in American history.

#ICYMI: On my first trip to Africa to advance our Women’s Global Development and Prosperity Initiative, we visited 2 countries in 4 days carrying out 8 W-GDP deliverables. From productive meetings with leadership to hearing firsthand from local women entrepreneurs and coffee and cocoa farmers, the trip was deeply impactful and we learned a great deal. Our mission to empower 50 million women globally to achieve their full economic potential is just getting started! #WGDP

Incredibly proud of my husband Jared and grateful for his service to our nation. #Time100 ? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Mma8iMRXv84
