Enough. Gun violence is killing over 100 people every day. We can all agree we don't want our loved ones to get hurt. So let's agree to pass bipartisan gun reform to protect them. WATCH @SenatorDurbin lead today's Judiciary hearing to #EndGunViolence. https://t.co/jJUqW6gTwS — PolitiTweet.org

Heartbroken for the victims, their families and the community of Boulder, Colorado. Everyone should be able to grocery shop, go to a movie or go to church without fear of gun violence. This can’t be our new normal. We must act. — PolitiTweet.org

Every American deserves to drink clean water, yet for many Illinoisans that's not their reality.   IL has more lead service lines than any other state—it's critical and long overdue we modernize & upgrade our water infrastructure. https://t.co/h6EckVkRgt — PolitiTweet.org

It doesn't get talked about enough, but this week is Water Week! A week devoted to helping every American—regardless of zip code, skin color or income—receive the basic right to drink clean, safe water.   And as Water Subcommittee Chair, @EPWCmte and I have a lot planned👀 — PolitiTweet.org

Words have consequences.   Offensive names such as the "China virus" have led to innocent people getting hurt solely because of the color of their skin and it has to stop.   I'm proud to join my colleagues in introducing the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act. — PolitiTweet.org

When you see racism happening, you have a moral responsibility to your fellow Americans to stand up and speak out. Every individual can make a difference to #StopAsianHate. https://t.co/sjo6IbxlPZ — PolitiTweet.org

Remembering the march from Selma to Montgomery is to remember the power of peaceful protest, the cost paid by MLK Jr., John Lewis and countless other heroes for the right to vote as well as our moral responsibility to pick up the torch and push on — no matter how long it takes. https://t.co/xzTsm9XbtB — PolitiTweet.org

We often talk about health equity without thinking about how the racial disparities in our health system got so bad in the first place. Higher exposure to pollution has meant higher rates of asthma, cancer and COVID-19. 🗣 Environmental justice now. https://t.co/NVW6vwX60W — PolitiTweet.org

Our servicemembers deserve to know they have the moral support and legal backing of this nation.   It's past time we have an honest reckoning about responsibly exercising congressional war powers, which includes repealing outdated authorities like the 1991 and 2002 AUMFs. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks the 18th anniversary of the Iraq War—a war that changed my life and countless others. Tour after tour, our troops redefine bravery. But many weren't even alive when the AUMF that's keeping them overseas was last debated. — PolitiTweet.org

Despite them seeing me in our nation’s uniform, wearing the American flag on my arm and going into combat, people would stop me and say, "Well, yeah, you're an American, but where are you from, really?" And this experience—being seen as the “other” is universal across AAPIs. https://t.co/l5Z0YJzZA7 — PolitiTweet.org

Manifesting the leadership we were starved of for four years, President Biden promised 100 million shots in arms in his first 100 days.   At day 58, he's already met that goal.   THIS is what promises made, promises kept looks like. — PolitiTweet.org

Too often, Asian Americans are attacked because of their race—but these crimes are severely underreported, if reported at all. I’m calling on the @FBI and @TheJusticeDept to take action and conduct formal investigations into these hate crimes. https://t.co/TLotnShYlx — PolitiTweet.org

Every survivor of domestic abuse deserves to feel safe and protected. It’s unacceptable that abusers with temporary restraining orders can legally access firearms. I’m joining @SenBlumenthal to introduce legislation to close the senseless loophole that allows this to happen. — PolitiTweet.org
