As someone who grew up in poverty, relying on food stamps to survive, I’m appalled by the Trump Administration’s cruel, heartless and un-American "public charge" rule. #NoToPublicCharge https://t.co/LU19bh4ybl — PolitiTweet.org

As tensions rise across the Middle East, we need an honest and thorough debate about replacing the #AUMF so our troops downrange know they have the moral and legal backing of their country. https://t.co/rYZKOxFELu — PolitiTweet.org

*18 years ago today* Congress approved an #AUMF authorizing military actions in response to 9/11. For nearly two decades, it's been stretched and skewed to keep us in an #EndlessWar. https://t.co/8aJXfMdact — PolitiTweet.org

Congress hasn’t given them that and—especially with Donald Trump thumping his chest about attacking Iran if Saudi Arabia directs him to—it’s past time we do so. https://t.co/TMcPSYC49T — PolitiTweet.org

As a nation, we are long over-due to have a thorough and honest debate about replacing the outdated 2001 #AUMF. U.S. troops downrange need to know they have the moral support and legal backing of their country. — PolitiTweet.org

On #ConstitutionDay, let's remember that one of Congress’s most solemn constitutional responsibilities is deciding when & how we send America’s sons & daughters into danger overseas. And tomorrow marks 18yrs since Congress approved the #AUMF that's keeping them in our longest war — PolitiTweet.org

Tomorrow marks 18 yrs since Congress approved the 2001 #AUMF, authorizing our military response to 9/11. There are adults serving who weren't alive when the AUMF that's keeping them overseas was last debated. Enough of the #EndlessWars. I won’t stay quiet - we need a new AUMF now https://t.co/b6vnuxG3vL — PolitiTweet.org

My earlier tweet is inaccurate. I should have said they had *tried* to do these four things, which is true. The language in the earlier tweet should have said “have sought to worsen our nation's homelessness crisis.” They have not yet succeeded, despite repeated efforts. — PolitiTweet.org

In times like these, our leaders should be acting in America’s best interests, not kowtowing to monarchs and dictators, as we work to coordinate a response to this attack that promotes stability in a region that desperately needs it. 3/3 — PolitiTweet.org

With his ‘locked and loaded’ language, Donald Trump seems to want to be viewed like some sort of John Wayne character, but in the same tweet proudly broadcasts that he’s awaiting further instructions from #Saudi Arabia, a kingdom that openly murders journalists. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

We know that Kavanaugh misled the Senate & worse, the American people. We now have confirmation that the so-called FBI investigation was a sham. But the harsh reality is that the majority of Senate Republicans knew all this and just didn’t care. — PolitiTweet.org

My concerns about #Kavanaugh didn’t go away after McConnell jammed his confirmation through & this story underscores an alarming history that deserves scrutiny. Why didn't the FBI fully investigate the serious allegations from Max Stier? Why wasn’t Ramirez allowed to testify? — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of helping Big Oil, we should encourage American-made renewable fuel & support rural communities–it's good for the economy & reduces reliance on foreign oil. That's why @SenAmyKlobuchar & I are urging the Admin to uphold the Renewable Fuel Standard https://t.co/uSB94n4U1f — PolitiTweet.org

Good to see that #NortoriousRBG visited @UChicago this week to receive the Harris School of Public Policy’s 2019 Dean’s Award. So many of us stand on the shoulders of #RBG’s substantial career and our nation is a more equal place because of her. https://t.co/3NWaqs3czo — PolitiTweet.org

Reducing wasteful duplication and improving program performance is one of my top priorities in the Senate, and enabling TSA to expand PreCheck eligibility to include transportation workers who have already passed TSA security screenings is simply common sense. — PolitiTweet.org
