Today, Saudi women’s rights defender @LoujainHathloul will mark her 31st birthday behind bars. Saudi authorities must end the unjust detention and inhumane treatment of Loujain and other peaceful human rights activists and release them immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

The Senate can act now to ensure that NO American has to make that untenable choice by including funding in the next relief package for states to expand #votebymail. Our democracy is at stake – and it’s on us to protect it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

.@SecPompeo is right: expanding #votebymail is a difficult task. But it’s not too difficult for the most powerful & advanced country in the history of the world. If we don’t do it, millions of Americans will have to choose between their health & their right to vote this November. https://t.co/294ND7ZlyV — PolitiTweet.org

I’m proud to support Medicare & Medicaid in the Senate because I know that they provide essential health care to hundreds of thousands of Delawareans & more than a hundred million Americans. I’ll continue to defend these programs & the millions of Americans that rely on them. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

On this day, 55 years ago, President Johnson signed into law the bill that created Medicare and Medicaid. These critical programs improved access to care for millions of Americans. https://t.co/Umzvm6AlnP — PolitiTweet.org

Building & maintaining trust between law enforcement and their communities is at the cornerstone of safety & crime reduction. Today’s discussion helped build mutual understanding & promote dialogue, & I was glad to hear from Delaware voices as part of this national conversation. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Bringing together voices from every part of our communities is essential to charting a productive path forward on policing reform. That’s why @RoyBlunt & I hosted a Senate Law Enforcement Caucus event to bring together law enforcement, community leaders, & civil rights groups. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

@JamesHamblin, great to join you to discuss something we’re both passionate about: creating opportunities for more Americans to serve our country and make it better. #CORPSAct — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

If #votebymail is good enough for @POTUS and @SecPompeo, it’s good enough for every eligible American voter, period. https://t.co/NybyBOjpU5 — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s pass the CORE Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Let’s #StopCOVIDCorruption in our next recovery bill and pass the CORE Act. https://t.co/LSxKabvSSj — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

CORE will empower and protect inspectors general, the government’s internal watchdogs that President Trump has aggressively sidelined. It will increase transparency of relief funds, strengthen Congress’s oversight of these funds, and up the penalties for those who abuse them. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We’ve also seen some of the wrong people benefit from relief programs and must do better to ensure they only reach the families & businesses that really need them. I’m proud to lead the CORE Act to #StopCOVIDCorruption with @SenWarren, @SenBlumenthal, @RepJayapal, & @RepSarbanes. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Federal relief to families and businesses is working. Without it, we’d be in another Great Depression. We have to continue that relief to get our economy through this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

My career in public service started with internships – first for Senator Bill Roth, and then for Senator Joe Biden. I learned so much working in both offices, and I’m so thankful for my hard-working interns in Dover, Wilmington, and Washington. #NationalInternDay https://t.co/p2o1emAKaH — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Nearly one-third of Delaware renters are facing eviction, millions of families across the country are relying on unemployment benefits, and President Trump and Republicans can’t even agree on a proposal to BEGIN negotiating with Democrats. https://t.co/WEZX8fXOIY — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Because of this pandemic, tens of millions of American families are facing serious financial challenges. Congress *must step up and help families get through this crisis*. We need to help families stay in their homes, put food on the table, care for their children, and stay safe. https://t.co/IDEIKAF1MO — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I raised my concerns about the striking lack of diversity at the @StateDept with @SecPompeo and asked what he’s going to do about it. We must do better. Watch our exchange: https://t.co/o8vb4noJYB — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Out of 189 ambassadors representing the United States abroad, only 3 are African American and only 4 are Hispanic. That’s unacceptable. That does not reflect America’s rich diversity. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

This is simply not true, and it’s dangerous for our democracy. The President cannot delay the election. My Republican colleagues should publicly and forcefully refute the President’s alarming suggestion that he can. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I’m concerned by the ongoing interrogations and recent arrest of Omar Radi, a Moroccan journalist reportedly targeted because of his work. Press freedom is fundamental to prosperous societies and responsible government, and I urge Rabat to respect that freedom and release Radi. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Across the country, we’ve been witnessing the challenges of conducting safe and secure elections amid the COVID-19 pandemic. That’s why we must provide states with the resources to expand #votebymail and #earlyvoting. Our COVID-19 response must include this support. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

John Lewis – a friend, colleague, and national hero – spent his life fighting to expand access to the ballot. To honor his memory, we should be working to ensure every American can vote, especially during this public health crisis. https://t.co/OmINeQ3VdW — PolitiTweet.org
