Just last year we passed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the American Rescue Plan, historic investments to rebuild our economy and our nation's infrastructure. We're already rebuilding roads and bridges throughout New York and the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Need some good news? In just the last few months, the Senate passed the most significant gun legislation in 30 years; one of the largest investments in science, tech, & manufacturing in decades; our largest climate change package ever; and the #PACTAct for veterans' health care. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

.@JoeBiden just signed the #PACTAct into law. Veterans exposed to burn pits and other toxins during their service will get the health care they have earned, and their families will get the benefits they deserve. We are finally honoring our promise to all those who have served. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

After @johnfeal2, @jonstewart, and I secured health care for 9/11 first responders, @ROSIETO59994621 and @trooper1999 came to us with a new but very familiar fight: Health care for veterans exposed to the same toxic fumes by burn pits. Last week, we finally passed the #PACTAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, we're finally allowing Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices and capping older Americans' out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs at $2,000 a year. Older Americans are getting the relief they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, we're capping the price of insulin at $35 a month for Medicare beneficiaries. It's a good start — one that will save lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

The #InflationReductionAct is the biggest climate change package that the Senate has ever passed. We're investing $60 billion in clean energy, creating 1.5 million new jobs, and reducing carbon emissions 40% by 2030. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

We finally passed the Inflation Reduction Act! It may have taken all night, but it was worth it to pass Congress' biggest climate change package ever, slash prescription drug prices, and bring down costs for families. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Republicans just blocked us from capping the price of insulin for all Americans at $35 a month. We've already seen far too many people risk their lives and health by rationing insulin they can't afford. It's unconscionable that we're letting this tragedy continue. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

The Inflation Reduction Act will slash prescription drug prices, bring down costs for families — and it will be the biggest climate change package ever passed by the Senate. I'm heading to the Senate now to vote YES on the bill. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

It shouldn't have taken this long or been nearly this difficult to get veterans the health care they deserved. But when we passed the #PACTAct, we finally fulfilled our promise to always care for those who served our country. https://t.co/lDwf5htFxT — PolitiTweet.org

Albany is and always will be a union town. I support @AlbUnited — and I will be watching this closely. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Kansans just decisively voted to defend their reproductive freedom. Despite what the Supreme Court or Republicans in Congress say, Americans believe in the fundamental right to make their own decisions about their own bodies, and they're ready to fight for it. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

After camping outside the Capitol for more than five days, I figured these veterans and families deserved a round on me to celebrate passing the #PACTAct. https://t.co/pqEhMmqBbh — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

The Senate just passed the #PACTAct, finally guaranteeing that veterans exposed to toxic burn pits will get the health care they deserve. Veterans and their families sat on the steps of the Capitol for nearly six days, holding us accountable. This victory belongs to them. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Veterans and their families have been outside the Capitol for five days, seven hours, thirty eight minutes and counting. Day or night, rain or shine, they aren't moving until we make this right. I urge my fellow Senators to finally pass the #PACTAct tonight. #HelpBurnPitVets — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Veterans answered the call of duty and were exposed to toxic burn pits while serving our country. We can't run from our responsibility to get them the health care they need now. This is the cost of war. It's time to pass the #PACTAct. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the exact same bill that passed 84-14 just last month. The only thing that changed was 25 Republican votes. It's time for them to do the right thing and stop blocking the #PACTAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Every minute that Senate Republicans block the #PACTAct is another minute lost to the diseases that are killing our veterans. 25 Senate Republicans voted to pass the #PACTAct last month — ask them why they switched their votes last night. Ask them to make the right choice now. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Last night, Republicans blocked the #PACTAct, our bill to guarantee health care to veterans exposed to toxic burn pits. 25 of them voted JUST LAST MONTH to pass the bill. Let's call this what it is: Total BS. Don't put politics before our veterans' lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

I am absolutely APPALLED. The first time we passed the #PACTAct, it passed the Senate 84-14! Nothing about the bill has changed. Why, just one month later, have some senators changed their votes on guaranteeing lifesaving care to veterans? — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Democrats tried to pass a bill to protect the right to birth control today — but Republicans blocked the vote. They want to take away your basic right to decide if and when you'll have children. The fundamental right to control your body should belong to you, not the government. — PolitiTweet.org

I was supposed to fly from NY to DC for votes tonight. Instead, my flight was rerouted through Indianapolis. Now I'm delayed and stuck in the airport. If you've tried to fly this summer, you've probably been through something similar—or worse. Tell me your airport horror stories. https://t.co/XY5u4GdD1S — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Delays. Lost luggage. Canceled flights — even flights that airlines allegedly knew all along they'd never be able to staff. It's time for airlines to stop putting profit margins before passengers. I'm calling for an investigation into the major airlines. https://t.co/lyR8QMR42Q — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Clarence Thomas said we should overturn your constitutional right to birth control. So Democrats introduced a bill to protect that right — and 195 House Republicans voted against it. The right to decide when and if you have children should belong to you, not the government. — PolitiTweet.org

Extreme right-wing legislators aren't going to be satisfied with controlling women in their own states. Until we pass our bill protecting the freedom to travel & create a Data Protection Agency to safeguard our data privacy, women won't be treated as equal citizens under the law. — PolitiTweet.org
