In honor of #PrideMonth, I’m sharing the story of why a pair of blue rubber gloves serve as a reminder of the progress #LGBTQ Americans have made, as well as the work that still needs to be done. WATCH THE STORY HERE ⬇️ https://t.co/sFLc0ZWvXf — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mark Pocan @RepMarkPocan

When visitors stop by my office on Capitol Hill, they often ask why I have a framed pair of blue rubber gloves. As an #LGBTQ elected official, these gloves serve as a reminder of the progress we’ve made & the work that still needs to be done. #PrideMonth WATCH THE STORY HERE ⬇️ https://t.co/CdnXf0Agpc — PolitiTweet.org

Ensuring that #LGBTQ Americans are treated equally is paramount to our democracy. I’m proud to cosponsor @RepDelBene’s resolution marking every June 26th as #LGBTQEqualityDay. #PrideInProgress https://t.co/7jFKp084Xd — PolitiTweet.org

People of color are less likely to work for employers who offer pensions & less likely to receive pension benefits in retirement. As a result, reliance on #SocialSecurity is especially high for many seniors of color – one of many reasons why we must strengthen it with #Secure2100 https://t.co/TQEInDA72Y — PolitiTweet.org

The President’s actions continue to escalate the humanitarian disaster on the southern border and we must ALL demand a change in government policy. — PolitiTweet.org

As @realDonaldTrump cracks down on legal ways for immigrants to come to the United States, many turn to dangerous and deadly routes to cross the border, including swimming across the Rio Grande and employing human traffickers. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mark Pocan @RepMarkPocan

Last year, I traveled to the southern border. While there, migrants told me how the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol kept them waiting for hours – and sometimes days – in the sweltering heat, only to then turn them away as they presented themselves legally to request asylum. — PolitiTweet.org

Families are struggling to keep up with the rising cost of prescription drugs with no end in sight. We invited 6 CEOs of major pharmaceutical companies to talk about how we can bring some relief to the millions of Americans suffering.
