@senatemajldr As I traveled throughout the district last month, I talked with many of you who said you feel both helpless and hopeless. It’s clear we need to pass commonsense gun safety reforms and I'm taking this anger back to Washington. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Today, I delivered over 700 letters from San Diegans, who wrote to me about how gun violence has affected them, to @senatemajldr. https://t.co/4YCBrpCdGA — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Men and women who put their lives on the line to defend our country earned the right to apply for citizenship. We’re asking @DeptofDefense and @USCIS to clarify the application process and explain the drop in service members applying for naturalization. https://t.co/HY3B3CL9DI — PolitiTweet.org

#TeamPeters joined @SDAirportAuth to celebrate the 4,000th home renovated through the Quieter Home Program, which provides sounds insulation treatments to mitigate aircraft noise. https://t.co/IWR2wFoIm7 — PolitiTweet.org

#TeamPeters joined @SDRegionalEDC as they announced the Advancing San Diego initiative, a plan to increase economic inclusiveness and opportunity for all San Diegans, which our region needs to remain competitive. #AdvancingSD #InclusiveSD https://t.co/yqAx9xTqMz — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Today, I supported a historic bill to protect the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and defend one of the crown jewels of our public lands. This sacred landscape is no place for oil and gas drilling. #ProtectTheArctic https://t.co/pNFSllfU6x — PolitiTweet.org

27 years ago, Dr. Mae Jemison became the first black women to travel to space. Following her historic mission, she was an advocate for diversity in STEM and equal opportunity for women and minorities. https://t.co/aXa5M60tpE — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Thank you @RepRooney for speaking out on the urgency of climate change. He's right—We can't ignore the science and tangible effects of climate change and we can't afford to be ideological in the face of this enormous challenge. It's time to get to work. https://t.co/cJRuyzOT1J — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Our bill will enable federal investment in transit to increase housing options for families across the country. It will also curb climate change through increased transit ridership, which takes cars off the road. https://t.co/Rj03cGmuyn — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

I introduced the bipartisan Build More Housing Near Transit Act to require applicants to @FTA_DOT New Starts —which funds commuter rail, light rail, and bus rapid transit—to evaluate the feasibility of affordable and market-rate housing near proposed projects. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

We have a housing crisis in San Diego and the federal government has done little to address the problem. Many San Diegans struggle to find affordable housing and are often forced to live far from work, or they can’t find housing near transit-served areas. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

There are about 3,400 chemical facilities in the U.S.—350 in California and 3 in San Diego. We must reauthorize and strengthen the Chemical Facility Antiterrorism Standards program to lessen the chances of an attack on these facilities. https://t.co/FhCkaJpefU — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Punishing people experiencing homelessness is not going to solve the crisis. If Trump is serious about addressing homelessness, he should work with CA and Congress to boost homelessness funding. https://t.co/vPWyBhyxhH — PolitiTweet.org

Next step: On to the House floor. The House continues to do our part to save lives. @SenateMajLdr: It's your turn. #DoSomething — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to my fellow @NewDemCoalition members for supporting the State Healthcare Premium Reduction Act. Our bill encourages states to create their own state-based marketplaces, which is estimated to reduce premiums by as much as 10 percent. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

San Diego is defined by our relationship with the ocean and we can't risk the threat offshore drilling poses to our environment, economy, and way of life. Today, I'm voting to #ProtectOurCoast from offshore drilling. https://t.co/K3NKpgMdM9 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

The horrific events of 9/11 forever changed the lives of millions. Today, we honor the thousands of innocent lives lost and thank the heroes who kept us safe at home and abroad. During one of our darkest hours, our nation showed unity and resiliency. #UnitedWeStand #NeverForget https://t.co/jZnsYjTRRG — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Today, my colleagues and I heard from experts at a gun violence prevention forum, who explained why it's so urgent to pass gun safety measures. The House acted. The experts agree. So, why won’t Leader McConnell act to save lives? #DoSomething https://t.co/f3U2SDCBz3 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

There are critical steps we can toward a clean energy economy, but real progress requires bipartisanship. I joined @POLITICOLive to talk about the #ClimatePlaybook, which offers proposals from both sides of the aisle that Congress can act on now to curb climate change. 📺⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

Slavery officially lasted 246 years in United States after the first captured Africans arrived in the colony of Virginia. #400YearsLater, we must work toward a country with freedom and equality for all. https://t.co/iyNUExxrP3 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

This a result of the Trump Administration's attempts to cut essential health benefits, eliminate open enrollment advertising, and more. We'll continue fighting for quality, affordable care. #ProtectOurCare https://t.co/shAST568M0 — PolitiTweet.org

You are not alone. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (Lifeline) at 1-800-273-TALK (8255), or text the Crisis Text Line (text HELLO to 741741). #WorldSuicidePreventionDay https://t.co/EQmE9huPj2 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

@VetAffairsDems I also spoke about the troubling report that a doctor at @VASanDiego allegedly conducted unapproved human research. I asked the Committee to work with our office to get answers and ensure the VA does its job to ensure patient safety at every medical center across the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Spoke at @VetAffairsDems' Member Day about our bills to expand eligibility for HUD-VASH vouchers to veterans with other-than-honorable discharges and to find solutions for veterans experiencing homelessness in high-cost areas, like San Diego. https://t.co/4cmMAJ9nKp — PolitiTweet.org

Tomorrow, I'm joining @politico for a conversation on clean energy and how the policies and politics are changing in Congress. #PoliticoEnergy — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

@GvpSd4 @SDBradyCampaign @MomsDemand While I continue to urge all my Republican colleagues to act, I want to hear from you. Gun violence takes a toll on all of us. How has the scourge of gun violence affected you and your family? https://t.co/K6LYnY0iPZ — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

@GvpSd4 @SDBradyCampaign @MomsDemand I want you to know that I am with you. It’s clear we need to pass commonsense gun safety reforms, and most of Congress agrees. We've passed bills to strengthen background checks, but McConnell has not scheduled a vote on them in the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

This weekend, I joined @GvpSd4, @SDBradyCampaign, and @MomsDemand, who-like many San Diegans I've heard from, are angry and tired of Republican inaction on gun violence. https://t.co/8HGlb4a0uI — PolitiTweet.org
