Our country has an historic opportunity in this moment to fix broken systems, rewrite unjust laws, and remake our culture for the better. We have to seize this moment and demand with our words and votes that real change finally happens. — PolitiTweet.org

As several more protests are scheduled to take place this weekend, I urge Delawareans to make their voices heard forcefully and loudly, safely and peacefully. — PolitiTweet.org

50 years later, Bobby Kennedy’s hope hasn’t yet been fulfilled, but we have another opportunity, right now, to come together and make progress. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

To all Delawareans, I want to hear your voice. As my colleagues & I examine options at the federal level to reform law enforcement in our country, it’s critical to hear from you. I am listening to each & every video that you submit & sharing some on my pages. #DelawareSpeaksUp. https://t.co/13PuQrbdRp — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

101 years ago today, the Senate passed the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote. Through protest, civil disobedience, & determination, activists were able to pass the Amendment & change American history. Let their success be an inspiration for the change needed today. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

This week, I’m using my account to promote Delaware voices. We’re calling it #DelawareSpeaksUp. I hope you take the time to listen & reflect on Faith’s message. Are you a Delawarean? Send in a video! Talk about what you’re feeling and thinking and what change you want to see. https://t.co/dv1ZqnWRka — PolitiTweet.org

Thirty-one years ago, pro-democracy protests drew hundreds of thousands of Chinese citizens to Tiananmen Square. These protesters risked their lives in the pursuit of freedom. Today, we honor their bravery and remember the lives lost. — PolitiTweet.org

As our nation awaits an important Supreme Court ruling that could affect DACA availability, I encourage Dreamers to consider renewing their DACA status now. See more details from #HomeIsHere: https://t.co/CC6p66LsWC — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

When the House passed the #DreamAndPromise Act one year ago today, they recognized that #HomeIsHere for Dreamers and TPS holders. Leaving millions of youth without clarity and stability harms their future and our country’s future. It’s time for the Senate to bring #HR6 to a vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The bill we passed last night extends the time window to 24 weeks and allows businesses to spend up to 40% on rent, mortgage and utilities, instead of just 25%. https://t.co/tV3w3bHjof — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

One of the main problems was the requirement for borrowers to spend funds over just 8 weeks – which wasn’t realistic for many – especially those subject to closures. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The PPP loan program has quickly delivered liquidity to struggling businesses and nonprofits. But because the crisis has proven worse than anticipated, PPP didn’t provide many employers in Delaware with the help they needed. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

One of the most consistent things I’ve heard from Delaware business owners is that they need more flexibility with PPP loans – that’s why I’m so glad to announce that the Senate has finally passed a bill to give business owners more flexibility with this important loan program. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

8 minutes and 46 seconds of silence. We remember George Floyd. We remember Ahmaud Arbery. We remember Breo… https://t.co/2bXMcSqpMD — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Right now our country faces three crises: a public health epidemic, an economic downturn, and the injustice of George Floyd's death. @senjudiciary should be performing important bipartisan work to address these challenges, but today’s hearing was an unneeded diversion. https://t.co/XKljfvFizK — PolitiTweet.org

Me: Do you believe the whole Russia investigation was a fraud and a witch-hunt? Rod Rosenstein: No. https://t.co/3ouoeqL8Lw — PolitiTweet.org

This week I’m using my social media accounts to promote Delaware voices - we’re calling it #DelawareSpeaksUp. Thanks to Evelyn for this heartfelt, moving message. Are you a Delawarean? Send in a video! Talk about what you’re feeling and thinking and what change you want to see. https://t.co/tz1ldmNEL3 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Today, I want to encourage all Delawareans to keep in mind the challenges faced by our health heroes and to express our gratitude and support. Thank you for all that you do! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

All across our state, we are so grateful to have devoted medical professionals and other staff that have stepped up to deliver excellent care every day despite intense work hours and a heavy emotional toll. We are all so grateful. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Earlier today, I was glad to briefly join a call with the staff at @SaintFrancisHC in Wilmington. From nurses and doctors to security professionals and administrators, their tireless work has kept Delawareans safe and healthy amid this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Please read this remarkable denunciation of Pres. Trump and his reckless efforts to divide us. This forceful statement from one of the most respected military leaders I have ever met is a clear signal of how urgent he thinks this moment is for our nation. https://t.co/iat0iMP5dh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

But, there’s still so much more we need to do to help vulnerable businesses & nonprofits. That’s why I’m introducing another bill w/ @SenatorCardin & @SenatorShaheen to allow the smallest businesses to take out a second PPP loan if they’ve experienced severe revenue loss. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I heard about how this program has helped minority-owned businesses like @MountainConInc in Dover & hospitality-oriented small businesses like Autumn Arch Beer Project in Newark. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Hundreds of businesses in Delaware have been able to benefit from this debt relief program, & I was able to hear about its success from small businesses firsthand today. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I worked hard to include a provision in the CARES Act to provide $17 billion to @SBAgov for it to make loan payments for small businesses with an SBA-backed loan for six months. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We need to do everything we can to ensure small businesses across the U.S. can survive this recession. Today, I held a roundtable with DE small businesses to listen to their experiences with federal small business relief programs & learn what more I can do to help. https://t.co/Waj7wuXgdv — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Amid all of the challenges our country faces now – from a health & economic crisis to national outrage at the unjust killing of George Floyd – why are Republicans using @senjudiciary to promote conspiracy theories? We have bipartisan work ahead to deliver for the American people. https://t.co/5GqY2gv3Kl — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s what we know: ✅ Russia attacked our elections ✅ the Trump campaign invited Russia’s help ✅ Trump associates obstructed the investigation ✅Michael Flynn pled guilty, a jury convicted Roger Stone, and several other Trump associates have been sentenced for crimes https://t.co/28hombq8BI — PolitiTweet.org
