As our nation reopens, we cannot allow #COVID19 to continue to devastate elders and staff in nursing homes. Proud to join my colleagues in a call for more federal resources to nursing and long-term care facilities during this crisis: https://t.co/Ubx6DfC1fq — PolitiTweet.org

New federal data shows how COVID-19 is ripping through understaffed Illinois nursing homes. https://t.co/85B2adKB3X

It’s 2020. We cannot let ourselves accept that in the US, black men & women are still being publicly executed w/o judge or jury in preventable police-involved deaths. It’s past time our country acts to ensure accountability & justice. https://t.co/eWnseAtDoQ — PolitiTweet.org

The #JusticeInPolicing includes provisions of my bill to strengthen accountability & transparency over law enforcement use of lethal force by rewarding states that enact laws requiring independent reviews, criminal investigations and, when necessary, prosecutions. — PolitiTweet.org

The 2nd bill I ever introduced in the Senate was the Police Training and Independent Review Act. Last week, Sen. Graham objected when I brought this bill up for unanimous consent. Today, I’m proud that Democrats' #JusticeInPolicing Act includes provisions from my bill. — PolitiTweet.org

The right to peaceful protest is a bedrock principle of our democracy & Americans across the country should be safe to exercise that right. My colleagues & I are demanding answers from @ICEgov & @CBP about reported involvement in violating those rights. https://t.co/IfLJxDDURy — PolitiTweet.org

Last Monday night, military helicopters went against military policy and FAA regulations to threaten and intimidate peaceful protesters exercising their First Amendment rights. Somebody gave those pilots permission to do that and I want to know who. https://t.co/TAdc7pi03M — PolitiTweet.org

Our healthcare heroes are our front line of defense against the #COVID19 pandemic.

At a time when our nation is reckoning w/ generations of racial injustice & inequality, Trump’s executive order to waive public health laws amid #COVID19 pandemic will worsen health outcomes among low-income communities & people of color.

2 things: 1) If Barr is telling the truth, it means Donald “I don’t take responsibility at all” Trump & Bill “Yes Sir” Barr have delegated “violence against American citizens” authority to the *PARK POLICE*. 2) He’s not saying “this was wrong.” Both should terrify all of us. — PolitiTweet.org

Our military—and its equipment—exist to protect American citizens, not threaten & put Americans at risk on American soil as we saw Monday night. I’m demanding @DeptofDefense & @FAANews investigate this. The American people need to know how this happened. https://t.co/xmIUG7FKIN — PolitiTweet.org

On National Gun Violence Awareness Day, I’m thinking of Hadiya Pendleton of Chicago, whose life was cut short by a firearm on January 29, 2013. She should’ve turned 23 this year. She, and all victims of gun violence, should be in the arms of their families & loved ones. — PolitiTweet.org

Breonna Taylor should be celebrating her 27th birthday today. Nearly 3 months after she was murdered in her home, the officers involved have *still* not been held accountable. This cannot stand. Breonna & her family deserve justice. #SayHerName — PolitiTweet.org

Sadly, I’m not shocked or surprised. Trump is unfit to lead. That is why I voted to remove him from office for abuse of power. It is now up to the American people to make your voice heard in November and cast your vote on what kind of country we wish to be. — PolitiTweet.org

A good jobs report. That's what Trump is talking about when he says "George would say it's great." This man lacks empathy and any basic human understanding about pain Americans are feeling right now & the injustice that rages across our nation. He's a disgrace & a coward. — PolitiTweet.org

Our military is stronger b/c of the diversity of those who serve&right now, minority servicemembers are disproportionately underrepresented across our elite forces. Those willing to wear the uniform of our nation should be able to serve in ways that accomplish their goals&dreams. — PolitiTweet.org
