I saw the horrific and unjust conditions at the border earlier this summer firsthand. That is why I was proud to join a bipartisan group of my colleagues to pass the U.S. Border Patrol Medical Screening Standards Act (HR 3525). — PolitiTweet.org

Today’s action by this administration is part of their continued assault on those that are most vulnerable. This is utterly shameful and goes against our American values. https://t.co/EeScYyYGVu — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

Hate has no place in our community. My prayers are with the victim of this heinous act of violence. The person that committed this crime must brought to justice. https://t.co/X2K3x0QQAW — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

Today, I am proud to lead my TX Democratic colleagues in demanding answers from the @TXsecofstate on how our state officials are strengthening our election security and ensuring all Texans have the resources they need to vote. Read our letter here: https://t.co/aslRG7MYeS — PolitiTweet.org

I stand with @SpeakerPelosi. No one is above the law and we must hold the President of the United States accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

Today is #NationalVoterRegistrationDay! I encourage everyone who is eligible to vote and hasn’t done so already, to register today! Our democracy is strongest when all of our citizens are engaged and making their voices heard by voting. https://t.co/hTcUhWWxBe — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

We deserve a government that is by the people and for the people, and the best way we can do that is by ensuring our President is held accountable when he abuses power for his own personal gain. That is why we must move forward with an impeachment inquiry. Read my full statement: https://t.co/0cvFrQVFC5 — PolitiTweet.org

Today's #ClimateStrike highlights the urgency of the matter. I'm proud to work on bipartisan solutions to our climate crisis that will help develop the technology we need to tackle the problem. https://t.co/Qe5cF44ezt — PolitiTweet.org

Doctor? Cashier? Waitress? Engineer? It doesn’t matter – the #WageGap persists across occupations for Native women & actually widens with higher educational attainment. #NativeWomensEqualPay https://t.co/hJhMMtfAEF — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

This is a step in the right direction, but still not good enough. We must continue our work to ensure that foreign adversaries do not interfere with our free and fair elections— upholding American democracy depends on it. https://t.co/0Cgspesglr — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

Keeping my colleague @WhipClyburn in my thoughts as he mourns the passing of his dear wife, Emily. She will be missed in the hearts of many. Her kind heart, philanthropic spirit, and commitment to equality are examples for us all. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

My thoughts are with my fellow Texans as they deal with the flash flooding from Tropical Depression #Imelda. Please stay vigilant and help your neighbors as this dangerous weather passes through. https://t.co/08VjUOPh5L — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to join my colleagues as we continue to work #ForThePeople to ensure that prescription drugs are affordable and accessible for all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we lost a legend. We thank Cokie for her countless contributions that helped pave the way for so many women in journalism and beyond. Rest in peace, Cokie. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

Today marks the beginning of #HispanicHeritageMonth. I’d like to take this opportunity to recognize the extraordinary contributions that the Hispanic community has made to our country, and to stand with them in this challenging time. A la comunidad hispana: estoy con ustedes. https://t.co/sQ6NSCYgQ8 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

We are still gathering the facts, but one thing is clear—changing our laws so that irresponsible people like the person that committed this shooting can never legally obtain a gun is needed and long overdue. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

My heart goes out to those that were injured and the brave first responders that were involved in yesterday’s shooting that occurred in Fort Worth. https://t.co/2UeBuvQGGC — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

For 25 years the Violence Against Women Act has kept women alive & made our communities safer. It's time for @senatemajldr to put politics aside and honor the legacy of #VAWA25 by passing HR1585 the VAWA Reauthorization! Survivors deserve nothing less. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

For the 2nd year in a row, the number of Texans without health insurance grew. Texas is once again the most uninsured state in the nation. This is the unacceptable result of the President’s sabotage of the ACA. https://t.co/N4EK5Yc2i2 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

If you are serving in America’s military, you have earned the right to be an American. Proud to join @RepGilCisneros, @RepEscobar, @RepCarbajal, and over 40 other colleagues in calling out @USCIS’ unacceptably high rate of denying citizenship to military servicemembers. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

American freedom is defined by the right to vote. That’s why I’m reintroducing a resolution alongside Senator @RonWyden to designate a National Voting Rights Month, to educate all Americans on their voting rights.

Honored to serve on the @HelsinkiComm. Today, we are addressing the challenge of racism and inclusion in Europe. Democracies on both sides of the Atlantic have much to learn from each other as we all work to make our societies and governments fairer and more diverse. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

18 years ago, our nation was attacked. Today, we remember all those who lost their lives and express our gratitude for our nation’s heroic first responders. We will #NeverForget. https://t.co/Eqe8KGetXU — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

Grateful to the @NewDemCoalition for endorsing my legislation to allow states like Texas to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act. This legislation gives Texas another chance to take full advantage of the Affordable Care Act and improve the lives of millions of Texans. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

More than 90% of the American people agree: it’s time for the Senate to pass the bipartisan #HR8 and expand background checks. @HouseDemocrats have acted. Time for @SenateMajLdr McConnell to act as well. #EndGunViolence #DoSomething — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

We've come a long way since 1619. But disparities created by slavery persist today. All Americans must grapple with this history, confront honestly where our country went wrong, and reflect upon what it will take to fully heal. #400YearsLater — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

2019 marks 400 years since the first African slaves were brought to what is now American soil in 1619. Slavery would last another 246 years – 3 years longer than the United States has been a country. #400YearsLater — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Marc Veasey @RepVeasey

In Congress, I’ll keep working to ensure that those who serve have the support they need in times of crisis. — PolitiTweet.org
