I had the honor to join Tyre Nichols’s parents this morning with @TheBlackCaucus. No parent should ever have to suffer the loss of their child at the hands of law enforcement. I am in awe of their courage. Congress must pass legislation to prevent these abuses and save lives. https://t.co/1837JVAzMV — PolitiTweet.org

America lost over a million precious lives to COVID-19. We must prevent even more devastating lost by strengthening our health care system and funding prevention efforts to ensure nothing like this happens again. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

Millions of moms can’t enter the workforce or spend more time with their children because the United States does not have paid family leave. I’m proud that President Biden is fighting to make our workforce stronger by giving parents the time they need with their children. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

Medicare and Social Security should not be on the table. Congress should pay our debts responsibly without cutting the critical programs Americans rely on the most. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

Robin Kelly @RepRobinKelly

The tax system is rigged for the wealthy and well-connected. I look forward to working with President Biden to level the economic playing so working people can thrive. Let’s reward work not wealth. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

We lowered health care costs by an average of $800 for Americans. Let’s finish the job and make sure these prices never climb so high again. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

Robin Kelly @RepRobinKelly

I was proud to vote to lower insulin costs for those on Medicare to $35 per month. Let’s finish the job and expand this to everyone who needs it. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

No child should have to drink water poisoned by lead. Thank you, President Biden, for committing to solve this crisis. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

The state of our union is strong. I’m proud to watch President Biden address our nation, uplifting the progress we have made and the work that’s left to do. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

Annette Nance-Holt is extraordinary champion for gun violence prevention. After losing her son, she turned her pain into action. I’m proud to host her as my SOTU guest tonight. https://t.co/h4Qkyg3778 — PolitiTweet.org

On National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, we acknowledge the impact of HIV/AIDS on Black communities. African Americans have been historically marginalized by the medical system and treatment of HIV/AIDS is no different. We have made strides, but there is more work ahead. #NBHAAD — PolitiTweet.org

When Carol was living in Illinois at age 17, she worked at her family’s mini-mart after school. One day, she was robbed at gunpoint, and she still remembers it vividly. She wants to fight so no one else has to live with such a memory #GVSurvivorsWeek https://t.co/ODKMaw3UkO — PolitiTweet.org

Robin Kelly @RepRobinKelly

Annette is a gun violence survivor, an advocate, an educator and an important leader to Chicago and the country. I am proud to have her by my side at the State of the Union to put the gun violence epidemic front and center. We must solve this crisis. https://t.co/MqMdJ8HHj9 — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to President Biden and Democrats in Congress, our economy is strong. Job growth is at historic highs while unemployment is at historic lows. I'm thrilled to continue to deliver for the American people and build an economy that works for everyone. — PolitiTweet.org

153 years ago, the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution made it clear that voting is a right, not a privilege. As voting rights continue to be attacked, especially for Black Americans, I will continue to work to protect the voting rights of all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

National Gun Violence Survivors Week is the first week of February because this marks the time that gun deaths in the United States surpass those experienced by peer countries over an entire calendar year. Our gun violence epidemic is unique, and preventable. #GVSurvivorsWeek — PolitiTweet.org

Robin Kelly @RepRobinKelly

I was thrilled to join the @nbnaorg to thank the nurses that make our health care system work. Equity is imperative to improving our health outcomes and Black nurses are committed to make this a reality. https://t.co/5w6KHXVUc4 — PolitiTweet.org

I just introduced new legislation to strengthen our supply chains with @RepLBR, @RepDebDingell, and @RepSusanWild. Preserving the integrity of American supply chains is vital to the health of our national economy & the maintenance of national security. https://t.co/Up29NRlhO9 — PolitiTweet.org

On April 1, 2020, Lyons lost their brother Lazlo to a random shooting in Chicago. Lazlo was an incredible brother and friend, once working two jobs at 15 to support his family. No family should have to endure such a loss. #GVSurvivorsWeek https://t.co/aFE2oefVfl — PolitiTweet.org

Robin Kelly @RepRobinKelly

I stood with my colleagues today to support the Assault Weapons Ban, a common sense measure to prevent these weapons of war from continuing to terrorize our communities. Congress must act now to save lives. https://t.co/NudXdbEWT9 — PolitiTweet.org

This Black History Month, I'm reflecting on the achievements and contributions of Black Americans that have moved our country forward. I’m proud to be a part of this history, and I am thankful to stand on the shoulders of those who fought for equality and justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks the start of National Gun Violence Survivors Week. Addressing gun violence is one of my top priorities, and I’ll spend this week bringing attention to the gun violence epidemic as a public health crisis and the powerful stories of survivors. #GVSurvivorsWeek — PolitiTweet.org

Ten years ago today, Hadiya Pendleton lost her life due to senseless gun violence. Just days after performing at President Obama’s inauguration, a bright, wonderful, smart 15 year old was taken from us. We must do better by our children to end the epidemic of gun violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Robin Kelly @RepRobinKelly

Tyre Nichols should still be alive today. My heart goes out to his family and all who loved him. I remain committed to finding meaningful solutions to ensure that officers who use excessive force are held accountable and that further senseless loss of life is prevented. — PolitiTweet.org

Robin Kelly @RepRobinKelly

I called the leaders of Markham and Riverdale to congratulate them on receiving grants from the Assistance to Firefighters program. These funds allow our communities to grow and thrive. — PolitiTweet.org

Pandemic-related continuous eligibility is set to end on March 31st, putting the health care coverage for millions at risk. I joined my House colleagues in asking @POTUS to consider an ACA special enrollment period for those who could lose coverage. https://t.co/0E77EfewiS — PolitiTweet.org
