Legislation to enhance background checks has already passed through the House of Representatives with bipartisan support. It would save lives. But Senator McConnell simply refuses to call a Senate vote. A shameful abdication of responsibility amidst a national crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

40 people were shot in Chicago this weekend, and Washington barely seems to notice. It’s unacceptable that reducing gun violence seems to have fallen off the Senate’s agenda. This cannot wait. The Senate must act - we have the power to enact change, but first we have to vote. — PolitiTweet.org

At least 40 people were shot — five of them fatally — over the weekend in Chicago. https://t.co/plVww8wrkM

It's time for Cuba to release activist José Daniel Ferrer & finally account for the suspicious death of his heroic colleague Oswaldo Paya. Cuba will only be ready to join the community of democracies when it stops jailing peaceful opposition voices. https://t.co/maR8bV9UzF — PolitiTweet.org
