Democrat or Republican, Alex could have been any of our kids. It’s time for the Senate to act. https://t.co/oKilklhOIe — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

Last year, the House passed my legislation requiring the SEC to engage in investor testing to ensure retail investors are informed and do more for investors—not weaken their protections. https://t.co/oLuPcQNix5 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

The SEC can claim to be a “disclosure driven entity,” but these disclosures clearly weren’t enough to inform investors like Alex. If investors can’t understand, in plain English, the disclosures, then disclosures don’t work. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

Yesterday, @FSCDems held a hearing on Investor Protection and I questioned SEC Chairman Jay Clayton on what he’s doing to protect inexperienced investors like Alex on these platforms. https://t.co/aLl1UeIq3J — PolitiTweet.org

Like many of you, I was shocked and devastated by the recent passing of Naperville native, Alexander Kearns, a college student who took up trading during the COVID lockdown and took his own life when faced with an apparent negative balance of $730,000 on his Robinhood account. — PolitiTweet.org

From tearing up #TitleIX protections for survivors of sexual assault to funelling money out of our public schools at a moment when our students are most vulnerable, @BetsyDeVosED has failed our nation’s children. https://t.co/EurrUxY2F8 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

The DeVos Rule—now set to take effect July 1st—will not only rob defrauded students of their day in court, but it will rob veterans of the GI benefits they’ve sacrificed so much to earn, and it will pass the costs of fraud committed by predatory colleges onto taxpayers. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

But because too few of my Republican colleagues voted to overturn the President’s veto this time around, our young people, our veterans, and our taxpayers will suffer. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

Protecting students and families cheated out of thousands of dollars doesn’t need to be partisan. The House & Senate’s bipartisan vote against the SAME @BetsyDeVosED rule earlier this year proved that we could come together to #StandwithStudents. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

Today, I voted to #StandwithStudents and reject @BetsyDeVosED’s rule denying relief to borrowers defrauded by predatory colleges. https://t.co/32wvkYzqcm — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time for Americans who live & pay taxes in D.C. to have the same stake in our democracy as the rest of us. The House just voted to make DC a state w/ two senators & full representation in the House. The Senate should take @VPPence’s advice & pass #DCStatehood immediately. https://t.co/KoJkEylF7Z — PolitiTweet.org

While recent weeks have brought to light many things our history books left out, one thing we ALL learned was Taxation Without Representation. Yet D.C. residents pay the highest per capita federal income tax & contribute more in fed. income tax than residents of 22 states. https://t.co/qggGMXJOXZ — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

5 years ago, our nation took a historic step toward fulfilling the promise of equality & justice for all when SCOTUS declared that marriage is right of ALL people, no matter whom you love. Today, we remember that #LoveStillWins & remind ourselves of the hard work that remains. https://t.co/NrUVMEteZ2 — PolitiTweet.org

Another shameless attempt to sabotage healthcare for the 130 million Americans with pre-existing conditions on the same day as the U.S saw a record number of new #coronavirus cases in a single day. This timing is no mistake—the cruelty is the point. https://t.co/PWtDcKnVB4 — PolitiTweet.org

#EricGarner and #GeorgeFloyd were strangled to death—Garner lay motionless and handcuffed on the ground for 7 minutes and Floyd with a knee on his neck for 8:46. Tonight, I voted for the #JusticeInPolicing Act to ban chokeholds as a policing tactic once and for all. https://t.co/MDAqduY8Ol — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

#BreonnaTaylor was killed by police who broke into her home in the middle of the night without a knock, warning or justification. I just voted for the #JusticeInPolicing Act to end the no-knock warrants that allowed Breonna to be murdered in her own home. https://t.co/NQiAbrgjJz — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten

Today would have been Tamir Rice’s 18th birthday. But because he was murdered by police in a park, he never made it past 12. When I vote for the #JusticeInPolicing Act later today, I’ll think of Tamir,his family & all the Black children we’ve failed by not taking action sooner https://t.co/iaGLPTSqCC — PolitiTweet.org
