I went to the floor tonight to talk about one of my political heroes - Edith Prague. "When she believed a cause was just, nothing could stop her. She was relentless, a force of nature." https://t.co/5ryNxMqn7S — PolitiTweet.org

FYI Cruz is asking for his vote to happen “next month” bc 20 Republican Senators have left town with dozens of votes still pending. The current rules allow the minority party to retain their veto power even if 49 of them aren’t in DC. — PolitiTweet.org

NEWS: I got Republicans to release their holds and allow votes on three critical national security nominees – including our Amb. to China. Progress. But a handful of Rs are still blocking an absurd number of national security nominees just to spite @POTUS. That has to change. — PolitiTweet.org

Edith Prague was the most impressive legislator I’ve ever served with - hands down. Fearless. Determined. Always a happy warrior. Her true north was whatever helped the poor and elderly. I learned so much from her and I miss her already. https://t.co/MkYCz1N0pl — PolitiTweet.org

I appreciate Israeli Interior Minister Bar-Lev's even-handed approach to de-escalating violence around settlements. This is something I heard a lot about during my recent trip to Israel. https://t.co/t7ImvScH3X — PolitiTweet.org

I did “reserve the right to object”, but that’s just the words you need to say in order to ask for a modification. As @alaynatreene reported earlier, my effort was to help my colleague help himself. — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

FYI this is mistaken. I didn’t object to this bill. To the contrary, I am a strong supporter. I simply asked Senator Rubio to add to the bill the passage of three nominees who will implement it, including Nick Burns to be China Amb. Rubio agreed. — PolitiTweet.org

Nowhere else in the world do this many parents have do endure a day like today, mourning the anniversary of their child's shooting death. Our nation's leaders have chosen to allow this carnage, this perpetual cycle of unfathomable grief. Why? Why? — PolitiTweet.org
