The ADA was supposed to consign ableism to the history books. But 31 years later, some Americans still can’t get to work, school or the grocery store easily. Or get paid a fair wage. And now, the over 400 voter suppression bills are threating our access to the voting booth. https://t.co/pdnb6f1y9j — PolitiTweet.org

I owe so much to the more than 1,000 activists who gathered in front of our Capitol, and the dozens who got out of their wheelchairs and crawled up the 83 steps of the Capitol 31 years ago. Because of them, the logjam in Congress was broken, and the ADA was signed into law. — PolitiTweet.org

If you don't live with a disability, you might not think of the 31st anniversary of the ADA as significant at first glance—but I assure you it is for the 61 million of us who do live with a disability—and it should be important for you, too. A thread 👇 — PolitiTweet.org

What @POTUS said. 12 years is far too long for American workers to go without a raise. Every worker deserves a living wage. https://t.co/2BGX20FfDU — PolitiTweet.org

The truth is that everyone is just one moment away from needing accessible transportation options to get around. It's been decades since the ADA was signed into law and yet we still have work to do to ensure every transit and rail station meets or exceeds ADA standards. — PolitiTweet.org

Congress must send a clear message that we stand behind our troops as they defend our country and our Constitution, which is why I’ll keep working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to continue improving this bill and ensure its swift passage. https://t.co/t2Hdt5e7jz — PolitiTweet.org

Our troops deployed across the globe deserve to know that our country has their backs as they sacrifice for all of us here at home. Though I do not support every provision in the FY2022 NDAA, I’m proud that it includes a well-deserved pay raise and several of my provisions🧵 — PolitiTweet.org

On #BumpDay and always, all hopeful parents deserve healthy pregnancies, safe births and the best healthcare possible. By passing my Support Through Loss Act & the MOMMA Act, we can send a message that we're here for them through every high and every low. https://t.co/jQndW4DFKf — PolitiTweet.org

It's unacceptable that more than 100 of our military's child care facilities are in "poor" or "failing" condition. I'm calling for a $5 billion investment to support military families and ensure their kids are cared for in the best facilities possible. #InvestInChildCare https://t.co/1lMITzllZP — PolitiTweet.org

The current GOP plan falls way short. We must make sure the Capitol is protected and that the @NationalGuard isn't forced to cut necessary training efforts. This should be above political games. https://t.co/Umt6ntkQJF — PolitiTweet.org

We've made much progress since Seneca Falls. But with women holding just 143 seats in Congress—despite women making up 51% of the population—we have more work to do. Let's work to make sure our government is as diverse as the people it represents. — PolitiTweet.org

“Get in good trouble, necessary trouble.” One year ago we lost John Lewis and today, his words still ring true as we watch Jim Crow 2.0 be ushered in across the country. We must honor his life's work and pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. https://t.co/pFA0lDflLe — PolitiTweet.org
