Meet Johnny
Taylor, Jr.
Last February, President Donald J.
Trump signed an Executive Order announcing the President’s
Board of Advisors on Historically Black Colleges and
Universities (HBCUs)—the earliest any American President has
signed an Order on HBCUs during his term.
President Trump shared
yesterday that Johnny Taylor, Jr., former seven-year president
of the Thurgood Marshall College fund, will take over as
Chairman of the Board. “I’ve been a CEO in both nonprofit
and for-profit organizations,” Mr. Taylor said. “By working
together across all sectors—the HR profession, HBCUs, and
this Advisory Board—we can strengthen the relationship
between education and employers.”
“I know he will
advance the cause of HBCUs, a major priority of our
Administration,” the President said.

“Studies have shown that children who are
involved in sports have greater self-discipline, higher
self-esteem and are better at working with others,” Ivanka
Trump wrote yesterday in an op-ed for NBC News.
Ms. Trump had a
firsthand look at the height of American athletic excellence
during her visit to the 2018 Olympic Games. “Our Olympic
athletes had the opportunity to engage in sport at a young age,
which allowed them to develop their talents,” she writes.
“But to ensure that every American child has that same
chance, we must break down barriers to youth sports
participation.”
President Trump signed
an Executive Order yesterday to accomplish just that. His
directive addresses the issue from several angles, such as by:
Establishing
the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition
Partnering
with groups in the public and private sectors to address the
decline in youth sports participation
- Asking the
Secretary of Health and Human Services to develop a national
strategy to boost involvement in sports among children
Ivanka
Trump: The Olympics prove America is stronger when kids from
all backgrounds play sports.
Tribute to a
Hoosier Vice President and Second Lady
“Well
hello, Indiana,” Vice President Mike Pence opened Monday
night at a dinner with the Indiana Society of Washington, D.C.
The Society gave the event an appropriate name: “Tribute to a
Hoosier Vice President and Second Lady.”
“In the last year,
we’ve made incredible progress all across this country,”
the Vice President said. “We’ve reformed our tax code,
we’ve rebuilt our military, and we’ve rolled back
regulations. And confidence across Indiana and across America
is booming.”
The dinner hit a
particularly high note when Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb awarded
Vice President Pence, his predecessor, with Indiana’s high
civilian honor: the Sagamore of the Wabash. Previous recipients
include Adam Vinatieri of the Indianapolis Colts and former
Late Show host David Letterman.
