Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. sparked a revolution of values, ideas & actions. His commitment to do right drove imperative change & inspired generations. This #MLK day, we honor his legacy by working to secure his vision. We must be steadfast in our fight for equality & justice. https://t.co/wt9Lp3lzpx — PolitiTweet.org

In just six months, the expanded #ChildTaxCredit shored up family finances amidst the continuing pandemic, reduced child poverty and food insufficiency, and increased families’ ability to meet their basic needs. We cannot let this progress end here. https://t.co/QoU8eQcpng — PolitiTweet.org

I applaud @ENERGY's efforts and will continue my work in Congress to modernize and strengthen our national electric transmission system. Learn more: https://t.co/bEzvqNGJSx — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

This new federal program implements my POWER ON Act, which will speed up permitting processes and boost community input to help build transmission lines and deploy more renewable energy across the country. https://t.co/2BKCCfYgaP — PolitiTweet.org

Too many Americans have experienced the harsh consequences of power grid failures in the face of more extreme weather events due to climate change. The DOE's #BuildingABetterGrid initiative will build a more resilient, clean & efficient energy system that our nation can rely on. — PolitiTweet.org

3/ Ensuring free and fair elections must remain our top priority. It's critical to safeguard our #democracy for generations to come. — PolitiTweet.org

2/ The Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act... ✔️ Restores crucial protections of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. ✔️ Expands opportunities to vote. ✔️ Combats voter suppression. ✔️ Strengthens election security. ✔️ Ends partisan gerrymandering. ✔️ Forces disclosure of dark money. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

1/ Protecting Americans' right to vote shouldn't be partisan — it's time to break down barriers to the ballot box so every citizen can fully participate in democracy. That's why I voted again today in favor of the #FreedomToVote: John R. Lewis Act. https://t.co/QtBrhfl4vn — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

The past year has been challenging, but Mayor Gloria leads with resolve, strength & compassion. Our local-federal partnership has done so much for SD, from housing assistance to improving roads & bridges. I’m confident this address will reaffirm that our city is in good hands. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

I voted for the John Lewis #VotingRights Advancement Act and the #ForThePeople Act because nothing is more sacred to our democracy than the right to vote. Congress must act swiftly and energetically to secure our elections and protect Americans' access to the ballot box. 🇺🇸🗳️☑️ — PolitiTweet.org

As we begin the second session of the 117th Congress, I'm celebrating our accomplishments for CA-52 in the past year. The Shuttered Venues Operators Grant program established by #ARP supported 63 San Diego organizations with over $92M in grants! — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Thank you @MayorToddGloria for tending to this seaside icon! 🌊 I look forward, as many San Diegans do, to its full reopening in the coming months. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

With the Omicron surge, @WhiteHouse is working hard so more Americans can have access to COVID-19 tests. Requiring private insurers to cover costs removes a financial burden on many families so they stay safe. Moving these efforts forward is crucial. https://t.co/MknO5fnSlT — PolitiTweet.org

Over 150 officers were injured during the insurrection. Many more carry invisible scars caused by the trauma they were subjected to that day. On this difficult anniversary, I'm sending prayers and gratitude to these heroes and their families. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Today we remember US Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died in the line of duty, and Officers Jeffrey Smith, Howard Liebengood, Gunther Hashida, and Kyle DeFreytag, who died by suicide in the months following the attack. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

The service and sacrifices made by @CapitolPolice and @DCPoliceDept officers to defend the Capitol on Jan. 6 will never be forgotten. https://t.co/e9U6Az7oXi — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

The American people deserve answers and will not forget how their representatives responded in this moment. I remain committed to protecting the sacred cornerstones of America’s democracy and will not let up until all involved are brought to justice. (7/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

The only way to ensure our democratic institutions survive is to ensure accountability. Democrats and the handful of Republicans who have put aside partisan differences will continue investigating the details of January 6, 2021. (6/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

However, when it came time for them to take real action, each cowered to Trump. Even now, they push lies that the election was rigged, scoff at what should be a united effort to learn the truth & refuse to take steps to prevent such an act of terror from happening again. (5/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Many Republican leaders that day—VP Mike Pence, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, Minority Whip Steve Scalise & others—denounced the mob & correctly called it one of the darkest days in American history. (4/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

It was later, once safely evacuated, that I understood the true gravity of what was occurring: a violent, concerted effort to stop the certification ceremony that would affirm 2020’s electoral votes. It was an attack on the Constitution, our democratic systems & the nation. (3/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

I was in the House gallery when the first insurrectionists breached the Capitol. At the time, those of us in the chamber had no clue what was happening. I thought a few rogues pushed through the metal detector until I heard a bang that sounded like gunfire or tear gas. (2/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

On the anniversary of Jan. 6, we are reminded that our democracy requires both political parties' fearless participation & resolve. It saddens me to see how Republican leadership was too scared to stand up for America when we needed them most. (1/7) https://t.co/uyN1vJc47Q — PolitiTweet.org

Important notice for those planning on taking transit along our coast this weekend! ⚠️⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Serving in the House alongside such a dedicated public servant is the honor of a lifetime. @RepBobbyRush's legacy, from fighting for civil rights to his work on @EnergyCommerce & for the people of IL-1, embodies the best of our country. We wish you the best in this next chapter! — PolitiTweet.org
