Yesterday, I joined President Biden for the signing of the Postal Service Reform Act. This bill is a big deal: it reshapes the postal service to be faster, more transparent, and financially stable. Vermonters need a good USPS. I was glad to be a part of getting this bill done. https://t.co/v2oL9tYn9c — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson! She is amazing - an accomplished jurist, an inspirational figure, and now a history maker. I look forward to witnessing her brilliant mind at work as a member of the Supreme Court. https://t.co/clOmhes8W5 — PolitiTweet.org

The science on climate change is clear, and it's frightening. But we have the tools we need to lower emissions and turn the tide. We know what needs to be done. We just need to act. I'll keep pushing for the clean energy future we need. https://t.co/I2FLNEeS1j — PolitiTweet.org

The loss of more than 200 Vermonters to opioid overdoses is devastating. It is a hole in the heart of our communities. For the safety of our loved ones, we must increase access to effective treatment and harm reduction tools for substance use disorder. https://t.co/sI42DaFxJO — PolitiTweet.org

I applaud @POTUS's decision here. Extending this pause is critical for folks' financial security. But we need long-term solutions too. It's time to get rid of federal student loan debt. — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing all who celebrate a happy Ramadan. I hope that this month brings you and your loved ones peace and prosperity. #RamadanMubarak https://t.co/3gibsAtAtH — PolitiTweet.org

The Restaurant Revitalization Fund helped hundreds of VT restaurants survive the toughest parts of the pandemic. But funds ran out before all eligible businesses could benefit. This week, I'll vote YES to replenish the Restaurant Revitalization Fund and help more restaurants. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

The cost of acting on climate change is far less than the costs we'll face if we let emissions go unchecked. It's time to deploy clean energy, invest in research and development, and build more resilient communities to ensure a safe and healthy future. https://t.co/AJzSLms4iG — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

45 million Americans have student debt, and it's holding families back. To rebuild the middle class, we need to help borrowers break free from crushing debt and build financial security. I'm asking @POTUS to do just that and invest in the financial health of our communities. https://t.co/bmLzf0JKIN — PolitiTweet.org

This is wonderful news for our small, family-owned organic farms. — PolitiTweet.org

We’re highlighting 10 Vermont community projects that I worked to include in the 2022 government funding bill. Up first: the Vermont Farmers Food Center’s Heart of Vermont Agriculture Program, which supports local farmers and expands access to locally grown food around Rutland. https://t.co/E7TqL0NZwn — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Last year, I worked with local VT groups to apply for Congressional community funding projects to address critical issues like food insecurity and opioid use disorder. We secured more than $10M for these efforts. To see if your project qualifies, visit: https://t.co/OE1XTTfVYU — PolitiTweet.org

Today is the Trans Day of Visibility, an opportunity to reflect on the accomplishments of the trans community and to reaffirm our commitment to protecting their right to live safely and happily. I'll keep fighting for the protection and support trans folks need and deserve. https://t.co/OegDGKOlxz — PolitiTweet.org

Farmworkers keep our communities fed and our farms running. Let’s celebrate #CesarChavezDay by thanking farmworkers for their hard work and continuing the fight for fair pay and safe working conditions for these essential members of our community. — PolitiTweet.org

We are all in it together to go green! Keep it up @GreenMtnPower! — PolitiTweet.org

Happy birthday to my good friend @SenatorLeahy. He’s a Vermont treasure. Enjoy the day! https://t.co/BdeGfBP9X5 — PolitiTweet.org

Big Oil is keeping prices high to pad the pockets of executives on the backs of working families. I joined @RepRoKhanna, @SenWhitehouse, and others to call for passage of the Big Oil Windfall Tax, so we put a stop to Big Oil's profiteering and give back to working families. https://t.co/zcEziBU8eH — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

I appreciate @POTUS's commitment to sustainability and emissions reductions across the federal government — but we must do more. I led a letter to President Biden, urging him to create concrete targets and leverage performance contracting to meet our climate goals. https://t.co/ha2B3kFUTN — PolitiTweet.org

In this country, we pay the most for health care and get the least. Americans deserve better. We need #MedicareForAll. https://t.co/URlHYQ4YPx — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

More than 27 million adults in the US are uninsured. Most of these folks aren't eligible for public insurance, and can't get insured through work or individual insurance. The result? Millions of Americans who can't get the health care they need. We need #MedicareForAll. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

The wealthiest Americans have avoided paying their fair share of taxes for far too long. @POTUS 's plan to create a minimum tax on billionaires will make our tax code fairer and generate hundreds of billions in new revenue in the process. Let's do this. https://t.co/0d59zIBdpa — PolitiTweet.org

The Sheldon Museum showcases so much fascinating VT history and plays a key role in VT’s cultural life. I'm happy to have secured federal funds to help with much-needed infrastructure improvements, so this historic institution can thrive for years to come. https://t.co/2e6o2dGA20 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

It's time to get dark money from special interest groups out of our elections. I support @RepAdamSchiff's constitutional amendment to overturn the disastrous Citizens United ruling and make sure elections are only decided by the voters, not dark money special interest groups. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

While Vermont families struggle to pay at the pump, Big Oil keeps gas prices high to pad executives' pockets. With oil prices down 30%, it's clear: we need a windfall profits tax. I support legislation to do just that. https://t.co/kEMF0w2hj9 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Today we’re celebrating the #AffordableCareAct and 12 years of expanded access to quality, affordable healthcare for ALL Americans. Everyone should have easy access to the health care they need. I’ll keep fighting to make this a reality for all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org
