I was proud to receive a perfect score on @HSLegFund's #HumaneScorecard for standing up for animal protection. We must take every step necessary to prioritize the care and safety of animals. — PolitiTweet.org

.@cta's Red Line Extension will help create transit equity on Chicago's South Side. This would be the first rail transit extension the City has seen in 30 years and it's much needed. — PolitiTweet.org

Joining my colleagues to urge the @WhiteHouse to provide the max fed funding for Chicago's Red Line Extension project. The project will provide access to transpo for low-income residents, create more than 25k jobs, & set standard for equitable transit investments across America. https://t.co/MNJ8diVVrs — PolitiTweet.org

Tobacco farms are no place for children to be, let alone work. Minors not old enough to legally buy the product face the risk of harmful exposure to nicotine and gaps in U.S. labor law lead to children of color being disproportionately affected. https://t.co/FUYGVjT5AL — PolitiTweet.org

My colleagues & I are urging @USDOL to stand up for the rights and dignity of children working in tobacco fields by updating regulations to protect their safety. This is not just a matter of protecting children from exploitative work, but of defending racial justice and equity. https://t.co/rcRMv8Aoev — PolitiTweet.org

The Dutch are to be commended for their pursuit of justice and accountability for the 2014 downing of a Malaysian Airlines plane by Russian backed separatists in eastern Ukraine. It’s not surprising that culpability for this crime also points to Putin. — PolitiTweet.org

It's time to tackle the leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S.: smoking. I was 14 when my dad died of lung cancer, and his suffering motivated my efforts to take on Big Tobacco. We must continue the progress we've made to protect the next generation from addiction. — PolitiTweet.org
