Saddened to learn of the passing of Madeleine Albright, our first female US Secretary of State. Albright was a trailblazer, pushing for NATO expansion and steering western foreign policy. May she Rest In Peace and may her family find comfort during this difficult time — PolitiTweet.org

I mourn the loss of my friend and colleague, @repdonyoung. Rep. Young was the longest serving member of the Republican Party in the House of Reps. He served Alaskan constituents for 49 years. I pray for his family, his friends, and the Alaskan people. May he Rest In Peace. — PolitiTweet.org

DID YOU KNOW: Last year we saw the greatest single year of job creation in American history: 6.6 million jobs created in the President’s first year – 7.4 million over the course of the Biden Administration – & the fastest economic growth in almost 40 years! https://t.co/cjvIUeFRqV — PolitiTweet.org

I am heartbroken to learn of the passing of 19-year-old Pleasanton resident, Travis Garcia. I extend my condolences to his family and the entire @USW_HobbsNM community. May Travis Rest In Peace with his golf teammates — all taken way too soon. https://t.co/TPMWIV7NCw — PolitiTweet.org

Today, the House and Senate had the great honor of attending a Virtual Address to the U.S. Congress delivered by President Volodymyr @ZelenskyyUa of Ukraine.   We convey our support to the people of Ukraine as they bravely defend democracy. https://t.co/uCoeS5my1v — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to secure funding for mental health services, tuition assistance, and childcare to @CBP. Additionally, the funding allows CBP to hire nearly 800 officers and 725 processing coordinators to ease strain of border agents working to control the influx of migrants at the border. https://t.co/uMXxHMsV4F — PolitiTweet.org

Today, @POTUS will sign into law the historic funding legislation passed by @HouseDemocrats last week, which will help create jobs and lower costs for families and meet the challenges of our time #ForThePeople. https://t.co/CPbnEVWb2t — PolitiTweet.org

I am a cosponsor of H.R. 1861, the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act, which allows the @USDAgov school lunch program to cover flavored whole milk. Milk is the #1 source of 9 essential nutrients—We must provide children these nutrients so they stay healthy in school and beyond. https://t.co/jXO4b0yDpI — PolitiTweet.org

In the year since passing the #AmericanRescuePlan to address the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve created over 7 MILLION jobs and unemployment is down to 3.8% across the United States. Private sector job growth is strong! https://t.co/SkimgXcrrG — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Henry Cuellar @RepCuellar

I just voted for a brighter tomorrow. Our children in South Texas deserve it. The government funding package will help working families with the cost of living, create American jobs, and support the vulnerable who work hard. https://t.co/hFYaJ55cId — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Henry Cuellar @RepCuellar

Through government funding legislation that I am voting for this evening, @HouseDemocrats are providing a lifeline to people working hard to support their families. I’m so proud of our investments to create an inclusive economy that leaves no Texan behind. https://t.co/B8D3ymw8XK — PolitiTweet.org

My bill with @RepJohnKatko, the Shadow Wolves Enhancement Act, just passed the House. @DHSgov will now be able to increase border personnel and bolster security against illegal activity on federal, privately owned, state and tribal lands. For more info: https://t.co/GFcePIHfM0 — PolitiTweet.org

I joined a letter to @POTUS calling for an increase in production of domestic energy and applauding the ban on Russian oil. I support Ukraine against the unprovoked assault by Russia. Russia is to blame for the war in Ukraine and the rising gas prices at the American pump. https://t.co/A0E3f4AWk3 — PolitiTweet.org

For too long, veterans who have been exposed to toxic burn pits overseas have suffered with little care from the VA. I voted for the PACT Act to get the VA moving on treating these veterans quickly. We cannot pinch pennies when it comes to caring for veterans. #PACTAct https://t.co/jzQYbxFznu — PolitiTweet.org

From Jovita Idar, born in Laredo in 1885, who advocated fearlessly for equity and civil rights, to Alyssa Cigarroa our city councilwoman working every day to better our neighborhoods—I will continue to advocate for women's equity, civil rights, and healthcare in Congress. (2/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to welcome Dr. Ricardo Cigarroa as my guest for the State of the Union tomorrow. Dr. Cigarroa has been an instrumental part of the fight against COVID in South Texas, conducting  free house calls and interviews.  Thank you for your leadership and being our hometown hero. https://t.co/gzH1nybQoq — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Henry Cuellar @RepCuellar

The Emmett Till #AntilynchingAct will ensure that the full force of the United States federal government is ALWAYS brought to bear on individuals who commit the monstrous act of lynching. I'm proud to support this legislation to finally make lynching a federal hate crime. https://t.co/Wb07kjGVEL — PolitiTweet.org

I send my deepest condolences to @SenFeinstein on the loss of her husband, Dick Blum, who passed away last evening. May Senator Feinstein, her children, grandchildren, and close friends find comfort in the coming days. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Henry Cuellar @RepCuellar

I am proud to support @POTUS pick, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, to the Supreme Court. Judge Jackson was raised by two public school teachers. She then worked her way to @Harvard. I appreciate Judge Jackson’s dedication to education and know she will be an excellent justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Henry Cuellar @RepCuellar

I voted for the American Rescue Plan to provide funding for schools as they navigate the COVID-19 pandemic.  In Webb County alone, I helped secure over $1.5 MILLION to help schools bring children safely back to the classroom. #PublicSchoolProud #PublicSchoolsWeek https://t.co/vvWkiv6uuG — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Henry Cuellar @RepCuellar

My team is helping distribute water to residents. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, a bill that I voted for, is bringing crucial investments to communities—like ours—that need improvements to water pipes and systems. Contact my office if you are in need of assistance. https://t.co/fviVG7MPZ3 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Henry Cuellar @RepCuellar

Happy to hear that @MySAWS is willing and ready to help @cityoflaredo restore water to our residents. I have been in communication with @MySAWS CEO, Robert Puente, and thank him for his cooperation. We will not rest until @cityoflaredo has clean drinking water. — PolitiTweet.org
