Thanks to @JulianCastro for providing context to the #Census data released today. What’s clear is that our diversity is our strength, America is changing and we need to make sure every community has the resources to thrive and to participate in the democratic process. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Yes. Demolitions and human rights abuses must end in Silwan, Sheikh Jarrah and all the other neighborhoods facing violent crackdowns by Israeli forces on a regular basis. — PolitiTweet.org

Felicito a Ken Salazar por su confirmación como embajador de EUA en México. Su experiencia de vida me da la confianza de que dará prioridad a asuntos de migración humanitaria, comercio e intercambios culturales y educativos en ambos lados de la frontera. https://t.co/ybVBlD8noE — PolitiTweet.org

I congratulate Ken Salazar on his confirmation to be U.S. Ambassador to Mexico. His life experience gives me confidence he will will prioritize humane migration, fair trade, and cultural & educational exchanges for people across both sides of the border. https://t.co/Nq8ivStGkQ — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Police foot pursuits are inherently dangerous—they put bystanders, suspects & officers at risk. I met w/ @ILAttyGeneral & community leaders to discuss improving CPD’s proposed foot pursuit policy & to make sure the consent decree is applied not just in word, but in action. https://t.co/aUVWiE1FS8 — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

We need bold change, not the status quo. The Senate infrastructure bill falls short in addressing the role of transportation in the climate crisis. The House must now push for changes so we have a truly transformative infrastructure bill. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

The continued operation of the Guantanamo detention facility is a stain on our international reputation and undermines our ability to advocate for human rights and the rule of law. Proud to join colleagues in this letter to @POTUS supporting his stated goal of closing it. — PolitiTweet.org

.@POTUS called for a national Clean Energy Standard in the #AmericanJobsPlan.  @USProgressives agree the American Renewable Energy Act is the bold vision we need to achieve this goal.   #NoClimateNoDeal https://t.co/7em1MsSm32 — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

The UN IPCC report released today makes clear that we must act NOW to avoid the worst consequences of the Climate Crisis. The Senate bipartisan infrastructure deal doesn't address transportation carbon emissions in a meaningful way. We must do better before its too late. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

I stand with @MechLocal701 and the 800+ service technicians striving for fair wages and better working conditions. I urge the NCDC to strike a deal that respects workers and ensures they are treated with the dignity they deserve. #UnionStrong — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

We must work together—society and elected officials— to address the root causes of violence and prevent more senseless deaths. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

The loss of a member of society at the hands of violence is always a tragedy. My heart goes out to the family of the female officer who died in the line of duty. I also stand with the officers fighting for their life right now. https://t.co/pT4pkPZ7SB — PolitiTweet.org

Raúl Montes Sr. fue superintendente en Chicago por 20 años, y este año murió de COVID. Siempre será recordado por su amor y servicio a sus vecinos. Me alegra que desde hoy, la calle 2600 S Kolin en La Villita honra su nombre y por siempre será: Raul R. Montes, Sr. Way. https://t.co/X0gAhXDSuY — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Extension is good, but not enough. @POTUS has the authority to cancel student debt, so why not relieve millions of individuals and families from crushing debt while boosting our economy at the same time? Use your power, Mr. President! 🖊 https://t.co/Ns55879fAk — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Our economy added over 900,000 jobs for the second month in a row. ⬆️Jobs are up ⬆️Personal income is up ⬆️Consumer confidence is up ⬇️Unemployment is down That’s the #AmericanRescuePlan at work helping families get back on track. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Today, @HouseAdm_Dems are releasing a report on voter suppression and their conclusion is clear: minority voters face ongoing discrimination in voting and barriers to the ballot box.   On the 56th anniversary of the #VotingRightsAct, this is essential to #RestoreTheVote. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

“Your vote matters. If it didn’t, why would some people keep trying to take it away.”—Rep. John Lewis. 5️⃣6️⃣ years ago, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the #VotingRightsAct. @HouseDemocrats are working every day to protect every American’s right to vote. https://t.co/5G80RNG5bF — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

A giant of the labor movement, Richard Trumka fought until his last day for all the working people in the US and abroad. Beyond inspiration, his legacy represents a call to action to always stand up for workers and protect their fundamental right to unionize. Rest in peace. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Indeed—our work isn’t done. We need to make sure a pathway to citizenship for immigrants is included in the reconciliation package. In the meantime, I’m happy Illinois is leading the way! — PolitiTweet.org

This is a big step. I'm proud to keep fighting in the House for a major issuance of Special Drawing Rights to jump-start an equitable global recovery from COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org
