Senator McBride Addresses Graduates

A huge "thank you" to Delaware State Senator Sarah McBride for her inspirational remarks to the WFS Class of 2021 at commencement!
Senator McBride told the class, "...the very idea that someone like me could have the privilege of one day serving my community in elected office, the image of someone like me finding love, living in this community that I love, and doing work that I love -- heck, even the notion that I could stand before you today as myself -- it all seemed so impossible that it was almost incomprehensible.

"I’m sure, today, there are those of you who are out there who fear - for whatever reason - that your dreams are impossible. Some of you may worry, like I did, that who you are and what you want to do with your life are mutually exclusive. I’m sure there are some who wonder, despite our progress, whether the heart of our community is big enough to love you too.

"And I am here today to say: nothing is impossible."
