This is great news! I’ve advocated for these critical steps over three different administrations. It’s a win for our environment, our economy, and the taxpayer. https://t.co/PLEUJKjQhq — PolitiTweet.org

The American Rescue Plan brought $248 million to Vermont for rural broadband. That’s funding to help our kids learn, our businesses thrive, and our communities connect. On #RuralBroadbandDay and every day, we must keep working for Vermonters to get the service they need. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

For nearly 60 years, the Medicare and Medicaid programs have helped American seniors live healthier and happier lives. I’m committed to protecting and expanding these essential programs so that everyone, no matter their age, income, or health status, can get the care they need. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

The United States is experiencing the worst drought in over a thousand years. Today, I voted to pass the Wildfire Response & #DroughtResiliency Act to make our communities more prepared for these natural disasters. https://t.co/3tMC1QpbyO — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to Hasan for winning the April Dunn Start Your Journey Award. Your work on behalf of disabled Vermonters is inspiring and effective. Keep up the good work! https://t.co/URoUZ0ya2T — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you, Yana, for mobilizing so many of your fellow Vermonters and doing critical work to support Ukrainian families in the Green Mountain State. https://t.co/rSqDZp3fzj — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

We just passed the CHIPS Act. This bill will: ☑️Boost US manufacturing ☑️Create jobs across the country ☑️Help resolve the supply chain crisis that's driven high prices for working families When we strengthen US manufacturing, everybody wins. I voted YES on this critical bill. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

.@jonstewart is right – Senate Republicans are subjecting our veterans to cruelty. Their obstruction to the #PACTAct is outrageous and unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Gun violence has stolen the safety that families once took for granted. We know how to end this: invest in mental health care, expand background checks, and ban weapons commonly used in mass shootings like the AR-15. It's time to ban the mass shooter's weapon of choice. https://t.co/G6FKXCMXrQ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

I’m excited to see federal funds used to expand broadband deployment here in Vermont. Expanding access to high speed internet will boost our economy, help Vermonters stay connected to loved ones and excel in the classroom. That’s a win-win-win. https://t.co/WPfDNxAjJv — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

An @OversightDems investigation found not a single assault weapons manufacturer that tracks the use of its products in mass shootings. Their strategy has been to take the cash and turn a blind eye to violence. That can't continue. We need accountability https://t.co/J833BxfMfS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

100 years ago, Lucy Daniels was called a radical for demanding something very simple: voting rights for women. Let’s continue the fight that “Lou” and countless others have led to protect and expand women’s rights. https://t.co/CLVbPRXHoo https://t.co/X5WxGZ6CGp — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Staff Sgt. Wesley Black did so much for so many in Vermont. We can take a big step to honor his service by getting The Honoring Our PACT Act across the finish line to the President’s desk and making sure our veterans and their families get the benefits and care they need. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

With temperatures soaring across our region, we need to keep pushing in Congress to address the climate crisis. But we also need @POTUS to take additional steps. It's time to declare a national climate emergency. https://t.co/x9xtlcwHD5 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

The passage of the #ADA was driven by the determination of activists across the country, fighting for equality and respect for disabled folks. Today, we celebrate that work and pledge to keep fighting for equal rights for Americans with disabilities. https://t.co/01KsUkrN7f — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

James Obergefell was the plaintiff in the historic SCOTUS case, granting the right to same-sex marriage. He wanted his marriage to be respected and equal under the law. Every couple deserves that. The Senate must pass the Respect for Marriage Act and protect same-sex marriage. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

I was in the chamber on January 6th and saw rioters violently attack the Capitol to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The January 6th Committee is critical to protecting our democracy from future attacks. I'm glad my footage from that day could assist their work. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Recent executive actions on the climate crisis are a step in the right direction. But we can’t stop here. I joined @repblumenauer & @AOC to call on @POTUS to declare a National Climate Emergency & take action to fight climate change. Because climate action can't wait. https://t.co/H1vQmBE2xe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Climate change is a pressing threat to our environment and our economy — but it also has serious consequences for our health. I'll keep fighting for climate solutions that put the wellbeing of our communities first. https://t.co/c0ltZapXPG — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Get well soon @POTUS ! Wishing you a speedy recovery. — PolitiTweet.org

Your healthcare shouldn't be controlled by a billionaire space tycoon. We need #MedicareForAll — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

The facts are clear: abortion bans put women's health and safety at risk. I urge my Senate colleagues to put women’s health and safety first. It's time to abolish the filibuster and pass the Women's Health Protection Act now. https://t.co/rokcT9bRb8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Climate action can’t wait any longer. @POTUS should declare a climate emergency to unlock the full range of tools the federal government has to lower greenhouse gas emissions and protect our climate. https://t.co/z7ZyY6Yj9A — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

We have a lot of work ahead to build a future without gun violence, but a critical part of that work is getting assault weapons off our streets. To help keep our communities safe, we must reinstate the assault weapons ban. https://t.co/bi2jvblTry — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

For so many of us, marrying the person we love is enriching and beautiful. It's painful to think that someone would be denied that experience because of who they love. We must pass the Respect for Marriage Act to protect same sex marriage in America. https://t.co/F9xoged3wo — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Prescription drug reforms could save $297 billion over the next decade and curb Big Pharma's price gouging. These changes are long overdue. Let's pass drug pricing reforms and cut costs for working families. https://t.co/MijjIaVs1V https://t.co/fxSc02Ezkq — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Justice Thomas made it clear: he wants to overturn protections for same sex marriage and reverse your right to access contraception. That can't happen. I'm voting to: ☑️Pass the Respect for Marriage Act ☑️Pass the Right to Contraception Act Because we cannot go backwards. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

This is great news for Vermonters! ARPA funding will help more Vermont families weatherize their homes, keeping folks cool in summer and warm in winter and lowering costs for families struggling with higher prices. https://t.co/GRPZIU0lX8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Starting today, Vermonters will have access to a great new mental health resource. Anyone looking for resources, advice, or someone to talk to can call 988 to be connected to a counselor who can get them the help they need. https://t.co/hmSgCrd4iW — PolitiTweet.org
