Thanks to @gracepotter for a wonderful night of music and for your support of the Save Our Stages bill, which provides billions in support for performance venues impacted by the pandemic. Here's to more concerts like this one in the future! https://t.co/OkbLfqxete — PolitiTweet.org

To honor the memory of those we lost, we must continue to strive for a peaceful future, both at home and abroad. https://t.co/rwjV50j44s — PolitiTweet.org

The top 1 percent are evading $163 billion a year in taxes. Through budget reconciliation, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to unrig our economy and make critical investments in America’s future. To #BuildBackBetter, we must #TaxUltraWealthy. https://t.co/kEzjPltPXB — PolitiTweet.org

Everyone deserves the freedom to make reproductive health decisions with their families and their doctors - free of political interference. I support the DoJ challenge to Texas' S.B. 8. — PolitiTweet.org

L’shanah Tovah to all those celebrating! A sweet and joyful new year to all. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy #LaborDay! Let’s celebrate by acknowledging and respecting the dignity of work. I support the #PROAct because strong unions improve the lives of workers. https://t.co/R5eL35n7VD — PolitiTweet.org

Join Congressman Welch and Senator Sanders for two town hall meetings in Middlebury and Springfield over Labor Day weekend. We’d love to see you there! — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to Putney’s Alicia Dana, who has now won two medals at the Tokyo Paralympic Games! You make Vermont proud. https://t.co/KPHmD6T79L — PolitiTweet.org

I’m a cosponsor of @RepJudyChu‘s bill. We must act to protect a person's constitutional right to seek an abortion and for health care providers to provide abortion services. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

This is an unprecedented blow to reproductive rights in America. Now more than ever, we must do everything we can to protect the right to safe and accessible reproductive care for everyone. 2/2 https://t.co/zIxIWTY31b — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

The Supreme Court has allowed SB8 to take effect in Texas. This bill prevents abortions after 6 weeks & allows individuals to sue abortion providers & those who help patients get an abortion. By refusing to act on SB8, the court has paved the way for future bans on abortion. 1/2 — PolitiTweet.org

From Hurricane Ida to wildfires in the West, we are witnessing the devastating reality of the climate crisis and must end our reliance on fossil fuels. I'm joining with other members to call for an immediate end to fossil fuel subsidies. #BuildBackBetter — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Vermont has long embraced open access to the ballot box as the cornerstone of democracy. Unfortunately, this is not true everywhere in America. 58 years after the #MarchOnWashington, we must honor those who marched, fought and bled for fair #VotingRights by passing #HR1 and #HR4. https://t.co/PvFziynBIz — PolitiTweet.org

We now have a unique opportunity to move transformational climate legislation. Extreme weather is here to stay, but there is so much we can do to prevent the worst consequences and build back equitably. I am proud to lead the fight for a greener future for all of us. 8/8 — PolitiTweet.org

All of these programs -from energy efficiency programs to incentives for electric vehicles- will cut our emissions, expand innovation, and save consumers money. 7/8 https://t.co/fiOU2ebDzY — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

I will keep pushing for programs like Hope for Homes that modernize our housing stock and incentivize home electrification. I am also fighting for the Main Street Efficiency Act which helps small businesses participate in energy efficiency programs offered by their utility. 6/8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

I will continue to fight for a robust Clean Electricity Payment Program centering renewable energy deployment. The deployment of clean energy across the US will reduce carbon emissions, improve air quality, and ensure a safer planet. 5/8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

That's why it's critically important to support climate action during budget reconciliation. I will continue to fight for programs that promote renewable energy, energy efficiency, and building and vehicle electrification. The time is now. 4/8 https://t.co/L90KKG7yBn — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Climate change makes storms like Irene more likely. As the planet warms, Vermont will experience more frequent & more intense storms, heat waves, and droughts. As the IPCC reported, to mitigate climate change we must end our reliance on fossil fuels. 3/8 https://t.co/3znkPoFQeW — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

Ten years later, thanks to the hard work of our communities, Vermont is stronger than we were before Irene. But Irene won't be the last extreme storm to hit Vermont. 2/8 https://t.co/wqfVH84Jqj — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Peter Welch @PeterWelch

This week marks ten years since Tropical Storm Irene hit Vermont. This devastating storm took the lives of seven Vermonters and destroyed homes and businesses. In the face of catastrophic conditions, Vermonters came together, working hard to rebuild the state we love. 1/8 🧵 — PolitiTweet.org

This devastating loss of our brave service members saddens me, as I know it does all Americans. I join in extending our deepest condolences to their families and loved ones. — PolitiTweet.org

We are all rightly and fiercely proud of our men and women in uniform, including the dedicated members of the Vermont National Guard, who respond to the call of duty, no matter the danger, no matter the peril. — PolitiTweet.org

The cowardly, terrorist attack also took the lives of innocent citizens. — PolitiTweet.org

Our nation grieves at the devastating loss of 12 brave service members, 11 Marines and one Navy Medic, while engaged in a noble and extremely dangerous mission — rescuing American citizens and Afghan allies from Kabul. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy 105th birthday to the National Park Service! #NPS is celebrating by waiving entry fees for all 423 sites across the country. Today, let’s recommit ourselves to protecting these amazing places for generations to come. Pictured: me & Margaret at the Grand Canyon. https://t.co/RG2cWdA6TZ — PolitiTweet.org

The #AmericanRescuePlan delivered a historic, $285 million investment to Vermont K-12 schools to reopen safely, stay open safely, and make up for lost time in the classroom. Wishing Vermont students and teachers a great year as they head back to school! #vtpoli https://t.co/uJ4Jnq1lBr — PolitiTweet.org
