Today, I introduced the Less Traffic with Smart Stop Lights Act. This bipartisan bill creates a new grant program that would go to modernizing stoplight signals &, in turn, would reduce traffic, improve safety, reduce fuel costs, and lessen air pollution. https://t.co/fRczxHNemc — PolitiTweet.org

Everyone, regardless of political ideology, should find what Trump said disturbing. The President must obey the law and show respect for the people he serves. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

What President Trump said is fundamentally un-American. For a sitting United States president to openly admit and essentially invite foreign governments to interfere in our election is appalling. Trump has clearly learned nothing from the 2016 attacks on our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

I introduced the Safe Sleep for Babies Act because I believe we need to put the American people first, not profits. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Today, during #PrideMonth and on this unfortunate anniversary of the shooting, as I remember the victims, I remain committed to #EndGunViolence in America and to working towards a country that is free of hatred and bigotry.” #pulse #HonorThemWithAction — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

We were able to pass the Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2019, of which I am a proud cosponsor, yet we cannot move forward on this because Republicans in the Senate refuse to act. Enough is enough. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

The way we honor the victims of this horrific incident isn’t with prayers and empty gestures – it’s by doing our jobs as legislators and getting real things done. And under Democratic leadership in the House, we have made progress. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

But I’m also reminded of a sobering fact; it’s been three years since that tragedy and we have yet pass common-sense gun safety legislation. Gun violence in America is an epidemic and we need to start treating it as such. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Today marks the 3rd anniversary of the #PulseNightclubShooting in Orlando that killed 49 people and left 53 injured, most of whom were LGBTQ Americans. I am reminded that even though marriage equality is the law of the land, bigotry and hate are still present. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Parents deserve the peace of mind that comes with knowing that the sleep products they purchase are safe. As a grandfather, this is very concerning to me which is why I introduced Safe Sleep for Babies Act which would ban these life-threatening products from store shelves. https://t.co/4rEFmalKhl — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

This week, I introduced the Safe Sleep for Babies Act of 2019 which prohibits the sale of dangerous inclined sleepers following reports of 37 infant deaths linked to these products. I believe that we need to put American babies first, not profits. https://t.co/xJRXpCYfBo — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Equal pay is fundamental to our values as Americans and gender-based pay discrimination hurts families and our economy. That’s why I am proud to be a cosponsor of the #PaycheckFairnessAct. It’s well past time that women are paid equally for equal work. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Today, women are still not compensated fairly making only 80 cents to every dollar her male counterpart earns. The pay gap is even wider for Latina women, who earn 53 cents to every dollar. This is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

56 years ago today, President John F. Kennedy signed the #EqualPayAct into law. On this day, we recognize the trailblazers who led the fight to ensure that all Americans, regardless of gender, are paid equally. And although we’ve made progress, there’s still much work to be done. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Honored to speak to R2L NextGen participants that will be joining latino high school students from across the country in our nation’s capital. They’ll be spending a week learning about their government, meeting Latino leaders, CHCI alumni, and building lasting connections #chci https://t.co/qDn1E5FKtT — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

I will be hosting a FREE grant workshop on June 14th to share opportunities, grant writing tips & techniques to make grant processes easier for non-profit organizations within and/or serving the 29th District.

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

I am glad that today we move towards celebrating the accomplishments of these exemplary young people rather than standing in their way. I am committed to continuing that work, and I welcome the next step on this journey. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Until we nurture and celebrate those young people who have made mistakes and turned their lives around in order to make the world a better place. To make America a better place. Dreamers represent the best in us and the best of us. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

The Dream Act is long overdue, but it is not the end of our work. Our work will not be complete until we eradicate the false narrative that to be a young immigrant is to be dangerous until proven otherwise. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

By providing certainty and opportunity to DACA recipients – 96 percent of whom are currently in school or employed and who contribute $42 billion to the American economy and $2 billion in state and local taxes annually – we are strengthening the American economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Today is a great day not just for Dreamers, but for all American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Today, I had the honor of taking part in the unveiling of the Andrés & Maria Cárdenas Family Legacy Mural. My immigrant parents raised 11 children in Pacoima to be dedicated & disciplined professionals in the fields of education, psychology, engineering, and even government. https://t.co/XhrcHz3N9T — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

There is a reason that we are called “the People’s House”. We have a responsibility to all Americans to perform our duty, and no amount of stonewalling or lies will deter us from that duty. https://t.co/hFmF8R8Inp — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

Today, we honor all of our fallen American heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect and defend the Constitution and our great nation. Here are some Memorial Day Events around the Valley and Los Angeles. https://t.co/DBlRHBraqm — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

I am proud to introduce legislation aimed at revitalizing our infrastructure. With the Clean Commute for Kids Act and the LIFT America Act, our communities have the tools to combat climate change and provide a safer, cleaner future for our children. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas

I support the #LIFTAmerica Act because I want public infrastructure that protects our health, our environment, and our children. Our nation’s infrastructure is in desperate need of repair, and this is the fix. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Tony Cárdenas @RepCardenas
