I commend the House and Senate Republicans who had the courage to put country before party. Though the Senate trial didn't end in conviction, it was the most bipartisan impeachment vote ever. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

The House impeachment managers navigated last week with skill and patriotism. Their case was clear and compelling, rooted in facts we saw with our own eyes and that my colleagues and I lived on Jan. 6. They have my deep gratitude. — PolitiTweet.org

Feb. 14, a day filled with love, is now a reminder of loss to many members of the Parkland, Florida community. We stand with the victims’ families and survivors. We are committed to making our schools and communities safer from the acts of gun violence. #NeverAgain #MSDStrong https://t.co/naMxUFNKhQ — PolitiTweet.org

@WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic one year ago. The outbreak has cost millions of lives and paralyzed economic & health systems. We've made progress, but we're still learning about the virus, how to fight it and how to better protect ourselves w/masks. ⬇️ https://t.co/xw3wead5Ua — PolitiTweet.org

Genome sequencing is crucial to detect & track #COVID19 variants. My bicameral bill with @RepBera & @SenatorBaldwin to improve our sequence-based surveillance is the current topic of conversation during @EnergyCommerce's markup. Watch my remarks, now: https://t.co/GdYtx6LAbg — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Americans know we need an immediate, aggressive plan that rescues our country from this crisis & revives our economy. In my experience, Congress works best when it is under pressure & on deadline. This process assures the delivery of a relief package now, no matter the politics. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

So what does this all mean for you? ‼️ The faster the government approves a COVID-19 package, the sooner you can receive economic relief & we can help bring an end to the pandemic. ‼️ — PolitiTweet.org

21 reconciliation bills have become law throughout history, most recently when Republican's enacted their antigrowth tax bill in 2017. Both parties have taken advantage of reconciliation over the years, and there's no reason a reconciliation bill cannot be bipartisan. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

➡️After committees report out their pieces, the Budget Committee compiles all the bills into a single package that will be considered by the House & Senate. ➡️If the House & Senate adopt different versions, they must resolve any differences before a final bill is sent to @POTUS. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

👉Committees develop legislation aligned w/ the reconciliation instructions, though all policy details are left up to committee discretion. (i.e. I'll join my @EnergyCommerce colleagues tomorrow to markup our section of the COVID-19 reconciliation bill: https://t.co/SO0wzk3XGc) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

✅These instructions are sent to committees of jurisdiction and outline (1) the amount of $$$ each committee can earmark for the budgetary changes to be made over a certain time frame, and (2) reporting deadlines. https://t.co/oilDf5s1X7 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

The current reconciliation timeline: ✅Congress creates & passes a budget resolution (a plan agreed upon by the House & Senate) for the upcoming Fiscal Year. The reconciliation process is triggered when specific instructions are included in the resolution. https://t.co/jlrNrz6TGf — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

Reconciliation is a special process that helps lawmakers change tax and mandatory spending policy. It's a tool often used to expedite time-sensitive legislation: a reconciliation bill only requires a simple majority (50 +1 votes) in the Senate instead of the traditional 60 votes. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters

The term 'budget reconciliation' has been used a lot during the last few weeks. But what does it really mean, and how will it help you? As a member of @HouseBudgetDems, I can help break it down... https://t.co/aoO1mxMREP — PolitiTweet.org
