The new #BivalentBooster, which protects against the original strain and BA.4 and BA.5 variants, is available if you: 1.Are 12+ years old 2.Had your last COVID vaccine 2+ months ago, and 3.Haven’t had COVID in the last 90 days. — PolitiTweet.org

Experts are predicting an upcoming “winter wave” of COVID-19 cases, but mitigation measures, like vaccines and boosters, can help. — PolitiTweet.org

@UofMaryland Graduate @FromCaliToMars used her Maryland public education to shoot for the moon and really stuck the landing. For #WorldSpaceWeek, I want to recognize my fellow-Terp for being the first Latina woman to serve as a NASA flight director. https://t.co/WyELBroqI2 — PolitiTweet.org

For Italian-American Heritage Month, let’s recognize the countless ways this blending of cultures has improved our lives and communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

It’s estimated that nearly 16 million Italian-Americans are living in the U.S., many of whom can trace their heritage back to Ellis Island, where their ancestors took their first steps on American soil. https://t.co/6cIRDAcuLI — PolitiTweet.org

One statistic that can’t be measured is hope, and that’s how we move forward, together. If you or someone you know needs extra support with a mental illness, there are resources. Call, text, or chat the 988 Lifeline. You are never alone. #MentalHealthMatters https://t.co/AZ20gF2cew — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

We know COVID-19 has made things even harder. More than half of Americans say the pandemic has negatively impacted their #mentalhealth. This impacts our neighbors, our friends, our family. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act also invests in mental health support through funding to expand certified community behavioral health clinics and school-based mental health services, among other initiatives. https://t.co/WBW939hAAC — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

This is why I have fought to expand access to telehealth, particularly for behavioral health care, to improve access to these essential health services, particularly in underserved communities. https://t.co/0m6WeW1hcJ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

It’s estimated that in 2021 there were 252,000 Marylanders who did not receive mental health care because of the cost. Our young people are especially impacted – one in six American children experience a mental disorder annually. https://t.co/PAal1bWeHh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

Talking about mental health saves lives. Every person should have timely access to affordable mental health care. In recognition of #MentalIllnessAwarenessWeek, I want to share some stats. @NAMIAdvocacy — PolitiTweet.org

We need to dredge for our ships to navigate to our ports. Our islands need dredged materials for a healthy ecosystem. It’s a win-win for Team Maryland today as we receive $4 billion in federal funds for Barren and James Islands in Dorchester County. https://t.co/Whprq71gYU — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

RT @portofbalt: “Now we have a win win situation,” said @SenatorCardin. “We want the dredged material sites because we’re restoring islands… — PolitiTweet.org

Congress has to act finally to provide some long-term security for Dreamers as well as TPS holders and other populations who call our nation home. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

It would strip DACA recipients of protections against deportation and work authorization that have allowed them to meaningfully contribute to their communities and only home that they have ever known. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

Melting pot no more? The 5th Circuit decision holding DACA unlawful runs directly counter to our nation’s legacy as a land of opportunity. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

I am fighting to extend the Limited Waiver so no Marylander who has earned loan forgiveness has to be saddled with lifelong debt. In the meantime, make sure you’ve applied for the program here: https://t.co/cV5unzDs2g — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

Congrats to @Official_BPI graduate, John Clauser, for winning a @NobelPrize in physics. He shares the title with two other scientists for quantum mechanics research. That’s what a Maryland public education can get you - even if it's my beloved @Citycollegian's rival. #cityforever https://t.co/exN4R541Ju — PolitiTweet.org

If these gloomy skies and rain have you down, just remember – @MrTrashWheel is full and happy. https://t.co/mKtamERNFp — PolitiTweet.org

Cpl. Ferrell should be here today. To prevent future tragedies, stronger penalties of Maryland’s “Move Over Law” went into effect this past Saturday, Oct. 1. Get familiar before getting behind the wheel. https://t.co/oTmMyUOtP9 — PolitiTweet.org

It has been just over seven years since US Marine Corps Corporal William 'Kyle' Ferrell was killed while helping another driver on Route 15 in Frederick County. At 21 years old he was serving presidential detail at Camp David. Police are still searching for that driver. https://t.co/tt6Okmbfff — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to see Baquer Namazi, an America unjustly held in Iran for >6 years, now has permission to leave for medical treatment abroad & his son, Siamak, has been furloughed from prison over the weekend. I hope to see their full family reunite in the US soon. https://t.co/oRpzFdw4rN — PolitiTweet.org

The companies and research institutions that partner with federal government on cutting edge research can now breathe a sigh of relief. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

Once again, we face the end of the fiscal year with a continuing resolution to keep the federal government from shutting down. Avoiding a wasteful shutdown is critical, but we need bipartisan cooperation. You can read my full statement below. ⬇️ https://t.co/AWOkVUT0XB — PolitiTweet.org

I have been an enthusiastic supporter of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson from day one. Today, we recognize her trailblazing journey that led her to becoming the first Black woman on the Supreme Court. Thank you for being a compassionate and fearless defender of the law. #SCOTUS https://t.co/gDNzuxG13v — PolitiTweet.org

The science is clear – these super storms are going to continue to happen as global temperatures rise. https://t.co/Hp3kftRCUC — PolitiTweet.org

We also keep in our thoughts the people of #PuertoRico. It’s been 11 days since Hurricane Fiona first made landfall on the island. The Biden administration continues to send relief supplies to ease the current burdens. Help is still urgently needed. https://t.co/xLbTkqtEnM — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

The images of destruction caused by #HurricaneIan are heart wrenching. Floridians are tough, and we’ll do all we can to help them get through this crisis. Thank you to the first responders who always answer the call. Their heroic actions will be remembered long after Ian passes. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

1 in 10 Maryland families struggle w/food insecurity. How can we ask more than 700,000 Marylanders to thrive in their community without a full belly? Today, @POTUS Biden held the first WH Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health in decades. Let’s make sure it’s not the last. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin

I strongly condemn the death of Mahsa Amini who died in Iranian morality police custody and I stand with the brave Iranian women protesting the Iranian regime. Iran must end its systemic abuse against women and allow freedom of expression. https://t.co/aE7a3oc4sp — PolitiTweet.org
