The human suffering caused by Putin’s unjustified and unjustifiable attack on Ukraine’s sovereign territory demands our continued attention, and that’s why I’m so proud the Senate passed this important bill to help the Ukrainian people today. https://t.co/3I7ftgE3cb — PolitiTweet.org

Making our nation's infant formula shortage a top priority is an important move by @POTUS. We must do everything we can to make sure there is enough formula available in our stores ASAP for families who depend on it—and make sure a shortage like this never happens again. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Let’s be clear: nationwide infant formula shortages like the one we’re seeing now can have serious consequences on a child’s growth and development—and it’s unacceptable. Proud to help intro new legislation with @SenBobCasey and my colleagues to ensure this never happens again. — PolitiTweet.org

That moment crystalized the power of America for me. Just the fact that our guys were taking orders from a woman—an Asian American woman—shows the power of America and our diversity. We're all American, we respect each other and it’s important the rest of the world sees that. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

At the time, I was the only woman officer in the unit—and the only Asian American in a command position. Someone asked one of my guys if they could look at our aircraft, and he said “you gotta go talk to her.” They asked “who? The little Asian girl?” "Yeah, she’s the boss.” — PolitiTweet.org

For me, the pivotal realization that the strength of our nation lies in our diversity happened when I was a young platoon leader and First Lieutenant, participating in Operation Brightstar, a NATO training exercise, in Egypt. — PolitiTweet.org

Vincent Chin would have turned 67 today. But his life— and too many others—were tragically cut short by anti-Asian hate. On this AAPI Day Against Bullying and Hate, we must build on our work to end the cycle of violence against our fellow Americans. We are not the "other." https://t.co/N6Wby9QvbT — PolitiTweet.org

This year's committee-passed WRDA will boost our economy, protect public health and create jobs through investments in water infrastructure.

Today marks the 68th anniversary of the Supreme Court's unanimous Brown v. Board decision to dismantle racial segregation in schools. It's one of the most important precedents in our legal system—and should always be treated as such. — PolitiTweet.org

From our struggles to our triumphs and everything in between, the Asian American story is part of our nation’s story—and I'm proud to join the @WhiteHouse today to celebrate every one of us this #APAHM. https://t.co/wW2dsPjSvQ — PolitiTweet.org

This International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, we're seeing hundreds of hateful anti-LGBTQ+ bills sweep across the nation in an attempt to intimidate kids. It must stop. To every student and child: no matter who you are or who you love, I am with you. — PolitiTweet.org
