Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Excellent piece in @TIME by @RepJimmyPanetta, @RepDonBacon, @RepHoulahan, & @RepMichaelWaltz— all military veterans—about the unifying power of national service, particularly in this time of crisis. Thank you for your support of the #CORPSAct! https://t.co/ML6ejOvaz4 — PolitiTweet.org

Since it went into effect more than three years ago, this senseless ban has separated Americans from their family members and done nothing to make us safer. In fact, it’s put our national security further at risk. https://t.co/UvnIwKzdpE — PolitiTweet.org

NEWS: On Wednesday, Congress will vote on the #NoBanAct, my bill with @RepJudyChu to end the President’s Muslim ban and prevent a future baseless, discriminatory ban from taking place in this country. https://t.co/GX62Rb9lZl — PolitiTweet.org

Red tape keeps American families from accessing relief. I’m working with @SenSherrodBrown, @SenBooker, @SenSanders, and others to pass the #ASSETAct, which will eliminate harmful barriers and help families qualify for programs like SNAP, TANF, and LIHEAP. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The SNAP program is a literal lifeline for millions of families, especially amid the COVID-19 crisis. Congress expanded SNAP benefits this March, but we need to extend & protect those benefits and Republicans are standing in the way. We must protect SNAP. https://t.co/X4U8JBpuNe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Grateful to former chairman of the Joint Chiefs Adm. Mike Mullen and civilian and veteran service organizations across the country for their strong support of the #CORPSAct. This is a defining moment. Let's help Americans get out and rebuild our country. https://t.co/1Vzw1DpgtX — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Our COVID-19 response requires reliable data. The recent move to shift control away from @CDCgov reduces transparency and undermines public trust in the data. My colleagues and I are urging the administration to reverse this reporting guidance immediately. https://t.co/F1tdGTH1Th — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

So far, only 59.8% of Delawareans have self-responded to the 2020 Census. We need everyone to #GetCounted. See more here: https://t.co/nO6EXwyN5t — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

During the COVID-19 outbreak, it is important to stay safe and healthy. That’s why the #Census2020 can be filled out at home, online, over the phone, or by mail. It is important that everyone is counted to ensure accurate representation. #GetCounted at https://t.co/rOf4sqLBIz. — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to Dr. Brintha Vasagar of @BayhealthDE and my friend, Rafael Zahralddin from @ElliottAttys, for being named as Minority Business Leaders in our region! Thank you for all your work for Delawareans. https://t.co/W5JryfvLBo — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

On both sides of the aisle, my colleagues and I are calling for at least $5.6 billion to support the rapid deployment of any future vaccine for COVID-19. This is a critical investment that we must include in the next relief package. https://t.co/ge32DFh0R5 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Congress has invested funds in research to develop a COVID-19 vaccine, but we must also ensure rapid deployment of a vaccine nationwide. Any future COVID-19 vaccine will only be successful if it can be accessed & trusted by the American people, especially vulnerable populations. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We simply cannot afford to invest too little in testing and contact tracing. People’s lives are at stake if Congress doesn’t get this right. https://t.co/tjQwCk7DSe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We can honor John by following his example, demanding justice and dignity for every American, and starting what John liked to call ‘Good Trouble.’ We can remember him by never giving up on our pursuit of a more fair, more equal America. https://t.co/hqUdBN7YO0 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Everyone who saw him that day - and every day - could not help but be inspired by the grace, decency and humor of a man whose fierce commitment to justice fundamentally changed our country for the better. https://t.co/4P82jx79Sy — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Most of all, I will cherish the memory of hosting John in Delaware in 2015, when we visited an elementary school together, spoke with young community leaders, and held a town hall discussion on civil rights. https://t.co/fQ2it0UEtD — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

John was one of my heroes, and I have been blessed to call him a friend. Always humble and generous, we traveled together on pilgrimages to Selma and Birmingham, to Charleston and Cape Town, to Memphis and to Montgomery. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Congressman John Lewis, true to his faith, gave of himself completely to fight for the dignity of every human being. He not only fought to end racism and oppression, but to build a new future where our nation would equally embrace all of our people. https://t.co/FXjlQXkDpA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The president’s attacks on vote-by-mail are not only unfounded, but dangerous. Absentee ballots are not new. Election officials of both parties agree: #votebymail and #earlyvoting allow registered voters to securely cast their ballots amid a pandemic. https://t.co/qJrmoDQNFe https://t.co/48UnEsHpzH — PolitiTweet.org

ICYMI — @PostOpinions endorses our bipartisan #DrivingForOpportunity Act, explaining debt-based driver's license suspensions “set a poverty trap while doing nothing to enhance public safety." Let's end this counterproductive policy. #FreeToDrive https://t.co/WTtkbXmCX1 — PolitiTweet.org

In addition to being the First State, Delaware is also home to the #1 botanical garden in North America. Congrats, @MtCubaCenter! https://t.co/jAt46JvCJo https://t.co/JxW8fPJ36X — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The administration’s actions to narrow the definition of human rights is a dangerous attempt to undo decades of advocacy and progress on LGBTQ rights, reproductive rights, and the rights of other marginalized communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The State Department’s new Commission on Unalienable Rights report seemingly prioritizes some human rights over others; this concerns me deeply. The U.S. must uphold human rights at home and protect them abroad. https://t.co/w2aqdTckBz — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

@SenatorWicker The Driving for Opportunity Act now has support from law enforcement associations, civil rights groups, mayors, progressives, conservatives, and the @USChamber. The #FreeToDrive campaign has broad support because, frankly, it’s good policy. Read more here: https://t.co/dwwYcpzVFA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Millions of Americans have had their driver’s license suspended because they cannot pay fines – not for safety concerns. That’s unacceptable. That’s why @SenatorWicker and I introduced the Driving for Opportunity Act to create incentives to end debt-based license suspensions. — PolitiTweet.org
