Had the pleasure in Mozambique of meeting with PM Adriano Maleiane and FM Veronica Macamo to discuss how we can strengthen our partnership on economic development, climate and security as they face a growing humanitarian crisis in the country’s north. https://t.co/XKw35hJ0cE — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Discussed successful efforts at Bazaruto Archipelago to convert marine debris into building materials with @AfricanParks. In the Senate, I’ve secured 10s of millions of dollars to halt ocean pollution—but we can’t solve global problems without help from partners like Mozambique. https://t.co/OBRwjxBhUy — PolitiTweet.org

This week’s ribbon cutting at Imani Village is a testament to the transformative work of @ReachRiverside and CEO Logan Herring. This crucial new development will help dozens of Wilmington families develop the security and stability they need to create a brighter future. https://t.co/lEN8HFZh7v — PolitiTweet.org

A better funded IRS is a win for our country: fewer audits for you, more money to ensure that everyone plays by the same rules, and billions of dollars to reduce the deficit. It’s one more way that the Democrats' new law is a win for Delaware. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

FACT: Roughly half the new IRS funds will be spent on operations, tech modernization, and taxpayer services. Why? Because Americans expect them to be better at reducing backlogs, paying refunds, and correctly dispatching auditors. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

FACT: The IRS is not planning on hiring “87,000 new auditors.” What is true? The IRS has lost a third of its employees since 2010. Hiring more staff is intended to fill that gap and create a more efficient team that should be more responsive to taxpayers’ concerns. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

FACT: New audits will focus on high-end tax evasion: big corporations and the wealthiest Americans who use loopholes and armies of accountants to avoid paying their fair share. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

FACT: The Trump-appointed IRS Commissioner has said that families under that threshold are LESS likely to be audited—‘better technology and customer service would also make it less likely that compliant taxpayers would be audited.' — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

FACT: The @USTreasury – including the Trump-appointed IRS Commissioner – has made clear that new funding should not increase audit rates on families earning under $400K each year. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I’ve heard from Delawareans concerned about new IRS funding in the Inflation Reduction Act. Here’s the truth: for families earning under $400K and small businesses, the chances of getting audited shouldn't increase. You may even get your refund faster. Let's lay out some facts: — PolitiTweet.org

I'm leading a congressional trip that started in Cabo Verde this week, where we met with US Green Berets training their forces as part of our partnership on maritime security. I’m looking forward to strengthening ties with Cabo Verde and other African nations during this visit. https://t.co/ZqRaDUjpdm — PolitiTweet.org

Recently had a great visit with DE Space Grant program students to hear about RockSat-C experiments from @NASA_Wallops. Thank you for showing Delawareans can reach the stars, and to @NASA’s Space Grant, Bill Nelson, EPSCor, & @SolarGirl2018 / Heliophysics Div. for their support! https://t.co/v0G4ITQ5fe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

This is one of the most important bills Congress has passed in years—and now, it’s law. Thank you to @POTUS and to House and @SenateDems for making this a reality! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

It’s our biggest investment in combating climate change ever, and our largest deficit-reduction bill in over a decade—all without raising taxes on Delaware families earning under $400,000. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The Inflation Reduction Act brings down inflation by tackling some of the largest costs that keep families up at night: prescription drug costs, health care premiums, and energy bills. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

This afternoon, @potus signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law! The IRA will ✅Lower Rx Drug Costs ✅Expand Medicare benefits ✅Bring down health care premiums ✅Cut the deficit ✅Lower energy bills ✅Fund climate solutions — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

It can be tough to swallow a championship game loss in extra innings, but the entire @DelmarSports @LittleLeague softball team should return home with heads held high. We are all incredibly proud of your amazing season, and look forward to seeing you back in action next year. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Wishing @FLOTUS a swift and easy recovery. I’m glad to hear her symptoms are mild, and I hope she’ll be back to full health in no time. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Welcome, @PGATour, to Wilmington. We can’t wait to show off this wonderful course to all of the @BMWchamps pros and visitors during the tournament, and then show off the First State’s beautiful @cityofwilmde when there’s a pause on the green. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The Inflation Reduction Act will bring down costs for prescription drugs, pay down the deficit, and make our largest ever investment in combatting climate change—and now it’s headed to President Biden’s desk. Thanks to @RepLBR and every House Democrat who passed the IRA today. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

So incredibly proud of our Naamans Little League team. Falling just a game short of a trip to Williamsport this year, the grit, determination, and skill you all displayed in this tournament should have you holding your heads high until we see you back here next year. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The honor was all mine, Sibo. Your insight and perspective was invaluable. Thanks to @WashFellowship for making this possible, and for their great work connecting #YALI fellows with offices like mine. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

The Goggin Manor House—part of the Underground Railroad—reminds us of our past while we work to secure justice for all today. I'm glad that the grant I helped secure as a Senate Appropriations Committee member will help Star Hill AME and Kent County preserve this historic home. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Spread the word: it was great to tell Delawareans about our major new bill that will reduce inflation and lower drug costs for the more than 200,000 Delawareans on Medicare. I look forward to seeing @POTUS sign this landmark bill into law. https://t.co/2h4VklluMu — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

70,000 Afghans who came to the US in the last year are stuck in legal limbo. Congress needs to join me and pass the Afghan Adjustment Act, my bipartisan bill that will offer stability and certainty as they begin their lives here in America. https://t.co/ne7lQbJL87 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I’ve been a staunch advocate for approving Sweden’s and Finland’s entry into NATO—two nations that will strengthen our alliance. After we ratified their admission to NATO in the Senate last week, I was honored to attend the ceremony yesterday where @POTUS signed this treaty. https://t.co/GLlFWbYAI2 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We'll all be watching and cheering Friday! Good luck! https://t.co/BvT3T8zqZM | #NetDE — PolitiTweet.org
