It's so empowering for students who are AAC users to see @RepWexton use an AAC device to speak on the House floor! #RepresentationMatters #DEIA #CommunicationIsAHumanRight @fcpsnews @frc_fcps @ATS_FCPS @fccpta @VirginiaPTA @NationalPTA @Communica1st @FCPS_ACSD

Today, with the assistance of voice to text tech due to my PSP, I spoke on the House floor in favor of my bill to rename the Purcellville post office in honor of Madeleine Albright. Sec. Albright was a trailblazer & inspiration to countless women in public service, including me.
