Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Over the past 50 years, SCOTUS has developed a doctrine that makes government officials, including police officers, immune from being sued in court when they violate people’s rights. I am proud to support this bill by @justinamash & @RepPressley to end qualified immunity. — PolitiTweet.org

Las vidas de los afroamericanos importan. La justicia importa. La solidaridad importa. Solo si nos unimos podremos marchar hacia un cambio duradero y hacia la equidad racial en Estados Unidos. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

En lugar de ser víctimas de una división instigada, debemos resistir y enfocar nuestra energía hacia el desmantelamiento de un sistema mantenido por la supremacía blanca que es nuestro enemigo común. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

En lugar de unificar a un país en pena y mostrar determinación para lograr justicia, Trump y sus simpatizantes están avivando intencionalmente la división y el odio. Están enfrentando estratégicamente a las comunidades afroamericanas y latinas, algo que hemos visto antes. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Sabemos por experiencia que hay fuerzas que buscan dividirnos por sus propios intereses. También sabemos que las comunidades afroamericanas y latinas han logrado avances significativos cuando hemos trabajado juntas. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Durante demasiado tiempo, los supremacistas blancos y han controlado nuestra cultura policial que trata a las personas afroamericanas y latinas como subhumanas. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

El asesinato de #GeorgeFloyd es el resultado de la historia racista de nuestro país: siglos de esclavitud y el sistema Jim Crow. Abro hilo👇 — PolitiTweet.org

Black lives matter. Justice matters. Solidarity matters. Only if we band together will we be able to march toward lasting change and racial equity in America. — PolitiTweet.org

When the Black community is killed, we are all killed. If they are not free, we are not free. Our stories are intertwined, and it is up to us to write our future legacy. — PolitiTweet.org

Now, more than ever, we must stay rooted in love and justice. That is where our power comes from. ✊ Now is the time to stand in solidarity with our Black sisters and brothers and realize that their struggle is our struggle. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Instead of falling victim to instigated division, we must focus our energy toward dismantling a system maintained by white supremacy. That system, built on the premise that Black & Brown communities should settle for the breadcrumbs of society is fueled by distrust & division. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Now, Trump is pulling a page from the old playbook of ‘law and order’ to pit Black and Brown people against one another. New decade, same playbook. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

When the KKK & police forces tried to discredit Dr. Martin Luther King, they used ‘law and order’ as an excuse for brutality. When they sent ICE into our streets to rip children from their mothers, they used ‘law and order’ to justify the dehumanization of immigrant families. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Instead of unifying a country in grief and resolve to achieve justice, President Trump and his sympathizers are intentionally stoking division and hate. They are strategically pitting Black and Latino communities against one another—a tactic we have seen before. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

Not all officers are to blame, but we must root out racism in our law enforcement agencies. We know from experience there are forces that seek to divide us. We also know Black & Brown communities have achieved significant advances when we've worked together. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia

A thread ⬇️ The murder of George Floyd is a result of our country’s racist history—centuries of slavery and Jim Crow. For too long white supremacists and racists have controlled our police culture that treats Black and Brown individuals as less than human. — PolitiTweet.org
