It’s also critical that we address the high cost of prescription drugs. I’ve supported several proposals this year that would allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices and cap out-of-pocket spending for Medicare seniors. Let’s start with these improvements and keep moving forward! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Make no mistake: In the coming years, we’re going to have to fight hard to protect Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. It’s up to us to ensure that these programs remain strong for our children and our grandchildren. https://t.co/TbDf6eNuUz — PolitiTweet.org

This week marks the 51st anniversary of President Lyndon B. Johnson signing into law the bill that led to the Medicare and Medicaid programs we rely on today. — PolitiTweet.org

Diplomats of @StateDept, both at home and abroad, have demonstrated tremendous integrity and commitment to improving the lives of our citizens and allies and supporting our security and prosperity. Thank you, and congratulations on 230 years! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Today marks the 230th anniversary of the @StateDept, our first federal agency. Serving as America’s voice to the world, our diplomats work tirelessly to advance U.S. interests and values abroad and embody our core ideals. https://t.co/g8fS18YRGf — PolitiTweet.org

We need Saudi Arabia to be our partner in our work against Iran, but not at any price. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The President has failed to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for its conduct in the war in Yemen, its human rights violations, & for the murder of American-resident journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Today the Senate has an opportunity to send a clear message that this is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Our values are equally – if not more important – than our interests. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

President Trump talks about our strategic relationship with Saudi Arabia as if all we care about is selling weapons, stabilizing energy markets, and having a close ally in a potential conflict with Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We cannot let our foreign policy be dictated solely by narrow economic and security concerns. — PolitiTweet.org

Attended @FHLBankPgh’s groundbreaking in the Flats neighborhood; I'm grateful to celebrate their next phase of redevelopment and the push for affordable & safe housing in Delaware. #NetDE https://t.co/SaA98GcKXZ — PolitiTweet.org

Thoughts and prayers aren’t enough to stop horrific shootings like the one that took place in California yesterday. We need to take action and change our laws, period. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I’m clear-eyed about the dangers posed by the Iranian regime, but I’m also concerned about President Trump stumbling into a war with Iran. If he wants to send the brave men & women of the US military into harm’s way he needs to explain to Congress why & seek our authorization. https://t.co/TrEGscCKbA — PolitiTweet.org

Just finished a great day at the #DelStateFair! Had the opportunity to spend time with so many Delawareans, work with my staff at our fair booth, and meet with @DelawareFFA. Thanks to all organizers and volunteers who came together to make 2019 another great year for the fair! https://t.co/hpv5UNqPY1 — PolitiTweet.org

RT @MarkWarner: Election security is national security. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We have a responsibility to ensure that all people in the custody of the United States are treated humanely. That means access to drinkable water, basic hygiene, food, ability to contact their families, and more. The conditions that I witnessed are unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Following my visit to the U.S. southern border, my colleagues and I sent a letter to the Trump Administration outlining what we witnessed & what basic humanitarian issues need to be addressed immediately. Read our letter: https://t.co/MfUfufGEJ5 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We know our elections were attacked in 2016 and 2018. We know it will happen again in 2020. I’m at the Delaware State Fair today checking out Delaware’s new voting machines, which are a big improvement, but there’s more work we need to do to protect our voting system https://t.co/8dojyRw6ra — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I’ve long supported the US Export-Import Bank because it helps Delaware’s manufacturers sell abroad and create more jobs at home. That’s why I’m proud to join @SenatorSinema and @SenKevinCramer to introduce a bill that expands Ex-Im’s impact and extends its authority for a decade — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Just talked with @DelawareFFA about the future of Delaware and American agriculture. These young men and women are already making a difference through their hard work and leadership. Delaware is lucky to have such a dedicated group of young people to call our own! https://t.co/vUbK76ZwK9 — PolitiTweet.org

Every day, 100 Americans die from gun violence, yet Congress hasn’t funded research into it for 20 years. Gun violence is a public health crisis in this country, and it’s time Congress recognizes that. #WeNeedToKnow #FundGVPResearch #ResearchSavesLives https://t.co/sieOoJbbwu — PolitiTweet.org

Today and every day, I’m so grateful for my own interns in my Washington, Wilmington, and Dover offices. Be sure to visit our website to learn about our programs: https://t.co/fsXBwtLPee #NationalInternDay — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I first came to the Senate as an intern – first for Delaware Republican Senator William Roth in 1981 and then for Senator Joe Biden in 1991. I learned so much through those experiences, and they instilled in me a lifelong passion for public service. #NationalInternDay https://t.co/5JKOSfpDKY — PolitiTweet.org

This bicameral bill takes a commonsense, market-based approach to reducing emissions, powering innovation, and creating jobs. Read more via @Reuters https://t.co/DgeU9uvb5n — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I’m glad to work with @SenFeinstein and @RepJimmyPanetta to introduce the #ClimateAction Rebate Act. Leading economists agree that the most effective way to address climate change is putting a price on carbon. Our bill does that, while investing in American workers and families. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Great to spend time with Delaware high schoolers participating in @ALBoysNation and @ALAGirlsNation , a week-long crash course American civics. Their enthusiasm for public service, passion for policy, and eagerness to work together inspires me! https://t.co/LDBLpxvqN4 — PolitiTweet.org

Excited to spend the day tomorrow at the Delaware State Fair! https://t.co/1Zx1TrUTlj — PolitiTweet.org
