I feel like I have had the most amazing life in my public service.

I want to imagine a country where people's wages reflect their hard work, where we have healthcare for everyone, and where every child gets to live up to his or her potential.

People are working hard in the USA to make things. And I want to help them do it even more.

There is one lesson from the past, in particular, that we cannot afford to ignore: You cannot make progress on gender equality or broader human development, without safeguarding women's reproductive health and rights.

True transformation only comes from sustainable strategies.

You know, everybody has setbacks in their life, and everybody falls short of whatever goals they might set for themselves. That's part of living and coming to terms with who you are as a person.

I am determined that we're going to get the economy really moving again, building on the progress, but never going back to what got us in trouble in the first place.
