Every day, I hold calls with small business owners, nonprofit leaders, and organizations supporting families in Delaware. They need more help. They feel the urgency of acting immediately. Why doesn’t Leader McConnell? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The Senate should be solely focused on helping our communities – but instead Leader McConnell has the Senate doing little more than voting on nominees. That’s unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

How can Leader McConnell tell state and local government employees who are preparing to be laid off that he hasn’t “felt the urgency” to pass additional aid to keep them on payroll? https://t.co/f6uwAsIpvg — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve said it before, but it needs to be said again: @TheJusticeDept decision to drop the criminal case against Michael Flynn is a new low point for the rule of law. DOJ prosecutors from every administration from Eisenhower to Trump have sounded the alarm. https://t.co/0kOOZ8vBvn — PolitiTweet.org

ATTN Delawareans - @DelawareLabor has released new guidelines for registering for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) for the self-employed and independent contractors in our state. Read their website for more details: https://t.co/Mnp97LFCKr? — PolitiTweet.org

We cannot remain silent as Black lives like Ahmaud’s are impacted & even taken because of hatred, fear, & racism. We cannot ignore the unacceptable realities & trauma that communities of color endure every single day in this country. We have to demand better. #JusticeForAhmaud. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Last Friday, Ahmaud Arbery would have turned 26, but on Feb. 23 Ahmaud was tragically & senselessly killed while he was on a run. This weekend, I went on a 2.23 mile #RunWithMaud to honor his life & reflect on the unacceptable discrimination that Black Americans still face today. https://t.co/9gETAjzCoQ — PolitiTweet.org

There will be more voters who choose to #votebymail in November, and the federal government needs to step up to provide funding. — PolitiTweet.org

I agree with the Iowa County Auditors. Making sure state and local officials have the resources to run elections isn’t a red state issue or a blue state issue. https://t.co/OK5eQMx8R4 — PolitiTweet.org

@SenBillCassidy @AmeriCorps If we make it possible for more citizens to serve their communities and help our country recover from this crisis—regardless of their financial circumstances—we know that hundreds of thousands will raise their hands, roll up their sleeves, and get to work. #Stand4Service — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

.@SenBillCassidy and I believe the answer is to rapidly expand our existing national service programs like @AmeriCorps and build on our country's proud history of citizen-led response to times of national crisis. #Stand4Service https://t.co/Jwl6Ym5caJ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

To safely reopen and recover, we will need hundreds of thousands of people to trace the contacts of those who were infected, help students catch up from months out of school, & assist those who may have to continue distancing. The question is: Where will these people come from? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

@buckeye_201 You better believe there’s a Senate Chicken Caucus! I started it with former Georgia @SenatorIsakson. Read more about it below. Also we’ll look into the Egg and Chicken Caucus origin timelines, @SarahGamard https://t.co/AGv3C04Fbs — PolitiTweet.org

My casework team has done impressive work these past few months, including by helping to bring home over 40 Delawareans from overseas in coordination with the @StateDept.

The Chinese government should release Ekpar immediately. Those responsible must be held accountable for the gross abuse of human rights against him and all innocent Uighur Muslims being targeted for no other reason but their religion. https://t.co/8CCujZGCVA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Three weeks after returning to China after participating in a prestigious State Department program in the US, Ekpar Asat was detained by the Chinese government—one of the more than one million Uighur Muslims who have been unjustly repressed, imprisoned, & forced into labor camps — PolitiTweet.org

I’m joining @SenBooker, @SenDougJones, and @SenKamalaHarris to call for support to students on financial aid – including Pell grant recipients – and for relief to HBCUs and MSIs to help maintain access to education amid this health crisis. https://t.co/5nrPfVwdbm — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I’m urging Leaders McConnell and Schumer to invest in those who have had their education disrupted by COVID-19 – especially for the countless students who’ve had their semesters interrupted and for the campuses across our country facing budget shortfalls. — PolitiTweet.org

ALS is a terrible disease still waiting for a cure. As ALS Caucus Co-chair with @SenatorBraun, I advocate for expanding research and treatment options for those with ALS.

This cannot become the new normal, and it’s on us to hold Attorney General Barr and President Trump accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

This is not the American system of justice. As long as Republicans refuse to check the President, his behavior will only get worse, and the integrity and independence of the Justice Department will be permanently damaged. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

For years, men & women of honor at the Justice Department said no. They refused to put the President & his associates above the law. Not so for Attorney General Barr. This decision sends a clear message that the law applies only to the President’s enemies & not to his friends. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The history is important with this case. Before the President fired FBI Director Jim Comey, he asked Comey to drop the Flynn case because President Trump wanted Flynn to be let off the hook for lying about his conversations with the Russian Ambassador. — PolitiTweet.org
