By passing this bipartisan NDAA—and by finally ensuring a debate + a vote to prevent a misguided war with Iran—the Senate is sending a message that we have our troops’ backs. I’m proud to have worked w/both sides of the aisle to advance this legislation. https://t.co/99ICgWrGR9 — PolitiTweet.org

The brave men and women in uniform who are deployed across the globe deserve to know that our country stands behind them as they risk their lives to defend our country and our Constitution. — PolitiTweet.org

Undermining the ability of *any* Americans to vote and have equal representation in Congress undermines our democracy itself. That’s why I’ve worked to expand voting rights & introduced the PROVE Act to help young people preregister to vote. https://t.co/fVonl7t813 — PolitiTweet.org

Six years ago, 5 #SCOTUS Justices gutted the #VotingRightsAct of 1965, leaving voters vulnerable to discrimination nationwide. Today, 5 #SCOTUS Justices gave states a green light to dilute Americans’ votes when drawing electoral maps, delivering another big blow to our democracy — PolitiTweet.org

Despite these alarming trends, VA does not currently offer any targeted outreach to LGBT Veterans. That’s why I introduced legislation with @RepChrisPappas that would help identify these barriers, address gaps in care & give these Veterans a voice within VA’s Central Office. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
LGBT Veterans face unique challenges and barriers to accessing the care & benefits we promised them. Because of this, they are experiencing unacceptable health disparities such as far higher rates of mental illness, depression, suicidal ideation & certain cancers. — PolitiTweet.org

The more we lift up more women in Congress, in our boardrooms, on our school boards – everywhere – the closer we’ll be to that more equal, more female world where our leaders reflect the populations they represent. So glad I could meet with @IGNITE_National earlier this week. https://t.co/9ZCUGj8hcg — PolitiTweet.org

It's disgraceful to ask our troops to sacrifice overseas while threatening to deport their families. This is a direct threat to our military readiness and our national security. Trump is harming our troops by pursuing this needlessly cruel policy. — PolitiTweet.org

This father & his 2-yr-old daughter washed up dead after being denied a *chance* to claim asylum. Meanwhile, Trump lied about how his admin treats migrants "much better" than Obama.

I’m proud to announce @SenToddYoung & I are introducing bipartisan legislation to make TSA Pre✓® available at no cost to Veterans with disabilities, which will make flying + passing through airports a little easier and less intrusive. Read more here⬇️https://t.co/2owwXRdrvz — PolitiTweet.org

Many Veterans have sacrificed a great deal in service to our nation and returned home with service-connected disabilities, which can make air travel and passing through airport security a challenge – especially for those of us who rely on prosthetics and wheelchairs for mobility. — PolitiTweet.org

The Iranian government has been our adversary long before Trump took office. But what we’re facing now is a manufactured crisis. The Trump Admin is stoking tensions & using our troops as bait, manufacturing a crisis to justify war – a reckless strategy with severe consequences. https://t.co/tP2ahrRdp1 — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
I ran for office so that when the drums of war are sounded, I'd be there to ensure our elected officials consider the full costs of war. That's why I spoke out, as Trump thumps his chest, to remind him he does NOT have legal authority to start a war w Iran w/o Congress' approval. https://t.co/mLmBLYLft3 — PolitiTweet.org
