19 years ago, the world watched in horror as we were attacked by terrorists. We were tested as a country, but we showed the world the resilience and strength of America. Today, we call on that resilience as we honor the nearly 3000 Americans killed that day. #NeverForget911 https://t.co/wGBRKXHHTy — PolitiTweet.org

We cannot allow the Senate GOP to once again leave out mixed-status families from receiving much needed #COVID19 relief. This virus is affecting everyone and does not care about immigration status. Thus, Congress must help everyone! — PolitiTweet.org

As Congress weighs a new coronavirus aid bill, will U.S. citizens from mixed-status families get left out again?… https://t.co/2uiFgcBsbt

5/ The City of Houston has 5300 police officers, and the vast majority of them do an excellent job in keeping our community safe. I thank them for their service, but holding officers accountable for wrongdoing does not take away from this. — PolitiTweet.org

4/ In the final seconds of this encounter, the question is whether or not Nicolas Chavez was an imminent threat to any of the officers or the general public. And, in this case, it appears there was no imminent threat. He should’ve lived to receive the help he needed that day. — PolitiTweet.org

3/ It’s made us question what the HPD can do differently to deescalate situations and avoid excessive force when at all possible. And unfortunately, I agree with Mayor Sylvester Turner and Police Chief Art Acevedo in their decision to fire the four officers in this case. — PolitiTweet.org

4/ It's clear there's something wrong happening at Fort Hood, and we must ensure that not one more soldier is put in harm’s way. That's why later this month, I'll be joining @RepSpeier on a congressional delegation trip to Fort Hood as part of our ongoing investigative efforts. — PolitiTweet.org

3/ This LULAC chapter was one of the most active in the 1940’s-1960’s fighting for Mexican American rights in Texas and beyond. It’s the same LULAC chapter that eventually brought the Hernandez v. Texas case to the Supreme Court. https://t.co/76f9RkYxbh — PolitiTweet.org
