Honored to have spent 11 years at @NBCNews and 7 covering Capitol Hill. I’ve had a front row seat to history and will miss working with all of the colleagues - now friends - I’ve made along the way. Thank you for teaching me so much! I’m excited for my next chapter: Mama.
Absolutely speechless by my amazing Hill Team colleagues with this video. The best in the biz @kasie @LACaldwellDC @GarrettHaake @frankthorp @haleytalbotnbc @JulieNBCNews Don't worry, I'll be checking in on ya :)
Today is @AlexNBCNews’s last day at the 🦚
She became like family to me during our years covering Congress together
And our whole Capitol Hill team agreed: She’s irreplaceable
Our tribute to her aired @Morning_Joe this morning
Alex: We love you
Just completely in awe of my friends @kwelkernbc + John! They’re having a baby after years of struggle and will be the absolute best parents. Their strength is unparalleled. Cannot wait to meet baby girl Welker Hughes soon💗💗💗💗

.@SpeakerPelosi speaking at presser with CBC: Thank you George Floyd for sacrificing your life for justice...Because of you and because of thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice, your name will always be synonymous for justice.
CBC Chair @JoyceBeatty on Chauvin trial: Guilty on all charges. This is just the first step. We know clearly that justice has been delayed
Guilty on all three counts.
BREAKING: NBC News Special Report: Jury announces verdict in trial of Derek Chauvin, charged in the death of George Floyd. nbcnews.to/2QhR11n nitter.gq/i/broadcasts/1RDxlPWyy…
House @GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy now introducing his resolution to censure @RepMaxineWaters after this weekend she suggested that protesters should get "more confrontational" if Officer Derek Chauvin is not convicted for the death of George Floyd
House Majority @LeaderHoyer on House floor now calling it "disappointing" that House @GOPLeader McCarthy going to offer privileged resolution to censure @RepMaxineWaters for her comments in MN
Despite @SpeakerPelosi saying she wants the bulk of the infrastructure bill done in the House by July 4th, Majority @LeaderHoyer said is “not a deadline, it’s not a target even” but they will move as fast as they can
House Majority @LeaderHoyer says Maxine Waters' comments "does not imply violence" and Republicans attacking her is a "phony effort" to distract from the rhetoric coming from some of their GOP members
House Majority @LeaderHoyer says he is hopeful when House comes back in May will have a bill on the floor dealing with resources to make capitol secure and safe. @SpeakerPelosi had said she hoped security supplemental would be on floor in April.
Asked if comments by Rep Waters are on par w/ comments by Trump re Jan 6th, GOP Whip @SteveScalise says no "President Trump used the word peaceful" and he hasn't "heard Maxine say anything about peacefully protesting. She has talked about violence" + supports censuring her
