This figure underscores what we already know: the opioid epidemic is having a devastating effect on our workforce & economy. To save lives & stop the adverse economic impact, we need a comprehensive strategy. My bill, the Turn the Tide Act, does just that. https://t.co/M4MoWZvXeL — PolitiTweet.org

.@LindseyGrahamSC, @ChrisVanHollen and I led a bipartisan group of Senators to introduce a sanctions bill to deliver an unequivocal message to Presidents Erdogan and Trump: Congress will not sit by as terror flourishes and our partners are slaughtered. https://t.co/4tEqJDBTXG — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

I’m introducing a new sanctions bill w/@LindseyGrahamSC, @ChrisVanHollen and a bipartisan group of Senators to put an end to Turkey’s incursion in Northeast Syria and hold both Presidents Erdogan and Trump accountable. Watch live here: — PolitiTweet.org

Deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Congressman Elijah Cummings. During his life and career, he was a powerful advocate for his constituents. He was a champion of integrity, justice and our democratic ideals. My thoughts are with his family and the people of Maryland. — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to carry on this effort in his memory with my co-chair @SenatorWicker and to celebrate @USNavy’s 244th birthday. Thank you to our sailors – past, present and future – for your service and sacrifice. https://t.co/XRFBuhiG12 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator McCain and I founded the Senate Navy Caucus to better understand the challenges our sailors face and to improve engagement between Congress and Navy leadership. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

President Trump’s reckless and dangerous decision to pullback troops from Northeast Syria has empowered bad actors in the region, including ISIS, Assad, Russia and Iran. There was no need for President Trump to go down this path to disaster. https://t.co/cdo3l8kOZz — PolitiTweet.org

I was at @NashuaPolice yesterday to discuss the importance of talking about this crisis publicly so we can begin to address it. I’m fighting for resources to provide support to all of our first responders. We owe it to these public servants who risk everything to keep us safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Law enforcement officers are under enormous pressures as they protect our communities and it’s taking a tragic toll. Nationally, we now lose more officers to suicide than in the line of duty. Sadly, NH is not exempt. We have lost far too many officers in the past several years. https://t.co/fzuzwEUsRT — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

That’s why we must recommit to raising awareness, standing with survivors & ensuring they receive the help & support they need to heal & seek justice. That includes immediately reauthorizing #VAWA, a law critical to helping survivors & their children. #ItsOnUs to break the cycle. — PolitiTweet.org

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. According to the CDC, 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men will experience physical violence by their intimate partners during their lives. These are sobering statistics that underscore how domestic violence is far too common in our society. https://t.co/5NKYsMPYQZ — PolitiTweet.org

NH’s Seacoast is especially vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, which include rising sea levels, extreme storms & flooding that can cause severe harm to lives & property in coastal communities. Failing to act further puts our communities at risk. https://t.co/jWjv4kS4WK — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

That’s why @SenCapito and I are urging @HHSgov and @CMSGov to reform Medicare payment policies that create disincentives for providers to utilize these non-opioid options for pain after surgery. https://t.co/hO0n5jNpAB — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Prevention is key in turning the tide of the substance use disorder epidemic and the use of non-opioid alternatives for pain management is critical to that end. — PolitiTweet.org

Turkey’s incursion into Northeastern Syria--which President Trump allowed to happen--has led to a worst case scenario in the region that I have long feared. President Erdogan needs to hear an unequivocal message of opposition to his incursion. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

.@realDonaldTrump must publicly revoke his invitation to Pres. Erdogan to visit the U.S. until Turkey pulls back from its current course. It makes no sense to be extending hospitality & niceties while Erdogan refuses to heed international calls for a ceasefire. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Whether they’re first on the scene to an active shooter or drug overdose – first responders need tools & resources to process the challenges they face on duty. Grateful for the insight shared at today’s meeting – first responders' safety & wellness will always be a top priority. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Our law enforcement community experiences enormous stress and trauma as they protect and serve their communities. They shouldn’t bear this burden alone. That’s why today I sat down with officers from across NH to talk about resiliency and how to better support first responders. https://t.co/unzaa0rrle — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Very concerned regarding these reports and hoping there are no fatalities. My thoughts are with the victims, the Pelham community and first responders at the scene. — PolitiTweet.org

On #InternationalDayoftheGirl we must reaffirm our commitment to making this a top U.S. foreign policy priority until every girl has the rights and opportunities she deserves throughout her life. — PolitiTweet.org

Breaking down barriers that prevent girls from accessing education and health care, participating in their societies & leading in their communities is a moral obligation the U.S. and international community shares. But it must be more than that. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Yes. There’s nothing wrong with diversifying retirement funds, but this shouldn’t undermine U.S. foreign policy. That’s why @marcorubio and I are calling on @tsp4gov to reverse its decision to invest millions of federal workers’ retirement in problematic Chinese companies. — PolitiTweet.org

Efficiency standards slash energy bills for American families and businesses—all while improving public health and combating climate change. Glad to see this ruling by the 9th Circuit directing the Administration to promptly publish these delayed rules. https://t.co/0fGZxnHts3 — PolitiTweet.org

No American should worry about the safety of their drinking water when they turn on the tap. I appreciate the continued advocacy by our local groups and I’ll continue to be a partner in this effort to demand accountability and action to combat PFAS exposure. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

This issue crosses party and state lines, which is why there has been broad bipartisan support in Congress to prevent exposure, remediate polluted sites and get to the bottom of health implications that are associated with PFAS contamination. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Granite Staters and Americans in communities across the country that have been impacted by PFAS contamination are relying on the results of this study to understand their health risks, so I’m very pleased it’s moving forward as planned. — PolitiTweet.org
