In addition to unemployment aid, stimulus checks, rental assistance & support for vaccine distribution, this bill provides a second round of forgivable loans for hard-hit businesses & extends the SBA debt relief program I authored, which has helped nearly 900 Delaware businesses. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Congress has finally reached an agreement to provide desperately needed relief to people in Delaware and across the country. I am grateful to my colleagues—Republicans and Democrats—who worked for weeks to deliver compromise legislation after too many months of inaction. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

We should have had this relief bill done months ago. I’m committed – as are many of my colleagues – to not leaving until we get this deal done. https://t.co/ijU8BsHiDs — PolitiTweet.org

Our country's come a long way to reach this moment: We have two COVID vaccines critical to beating this pandemic. At the direction of Congress' physician, @SenatorCarper, @RepLBR and I received the first dose today—underscoring our confidence in our scientists and health experts. https://t.co/zck7J2edpx — PolitiTweet.org

My heart goes out to the family of Warner Timmons—his wife Mickie, his son @JayTimmonsNAM, and all those who loved him. Jay’s moving statement on his father’s death and legacy is a reminder of the responsibility we have to each other. Let’s take care of one another. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

From rebuilding confidence in American leadership to restoring our alliances around the world, Tony and the State Department have critical work to do, and I plan to do everything I can to support those efforts in the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

I just finished a productive conversation with @ABlinken, President-elect Biden’s nominee for Secretary of State, about the difficult challenges and exciting opportunities that lie ahead for the United States and the Biden Administration. https://t.co/aX1JLc843B — PolitiTweet.org

Tehran’s continued violations of the human rights of foreigners, dual nationals & its own citizens must stop. As co-chairs of the Senate Human Rights Caucus, @SenThomTillis & I condemn such abuses & insist human rights be respected around the world. https://t.co/ByEWiR9lIT — PolitiTweet.org

Sudan’s removal from the State Sponsors of Terrorism list is an historic step forward in the U.S.-Sudan relationship. Congratulations to @SudanPMHamdok and the Sudanese people on this achievement. I look forward to working with Sudan to build on this progress. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

By expanding civics education in K-12 and beyond, my new bipartisan bill w/ @JohnCornyn, the Educating for Democracy Act, will equip generations of Americans with better knowledge of their rights and how to exercise them. Learn more about our bill here: https://t.co/wPXinq4qB5 — PolitiTweet.org

Bill of Rights Day is a national recognition of the first 10 Amendments to our Constitution—securing some of our most sacred rights as Americans. For this year’s commemoration, I’m working to improve civics & history education to promote engagement in our communities. https://t.co/WbhdRVzoIp — PolitiTweet.org

This should not be Congress’ last COVID relief bill, but it is a strong compromise that deserves support from both Republicans and Democrats in the Senate. We cannot leave for the holidays without getting relief to those Americans who need it. https://t.co/WFhv2PUzeR — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Just now, a strong, balanced proposal for bipartisan COVID-19 relief – including unemployment aid, housing support, small business relief, and vaccine distribution funds – was announced in the Senate. Congress cannot wait any longer to act. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

A bipartisan group of senators has put forward a strong, balanced framework to deliver unemployment aid, housing support, help for small businesses, funding for vaccine distribution & more. Congress should not leave for the holidays until we pass relief for millions of Americans. https://t.co/Upf6J9r8sB — PolitiTweet.org

We know too little about hiring tech—including whether applicant screening programs could worsen racial disparities in the hiring process. @SenatorBennet and I asked the @USEEOC how much they’re tracking discrimination concerns raised by this technology 👇👇 https://t.co/49X6wsVdqm — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, the Iranian government once again demonstrated its ruthlessness & disregard for human rights by hanging dissident & journalist Ruhollah Zam. We must condemn such brutality & do more to protect freedom of speech, of the press, and of protest. #ruhollahzam — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

And while Delaware may be a small state, news like this is a big deal – and a reminder that we are all affected by climate change and the action (or inaction) of all other countries to combat it. https://t.co/CSnWGMC2JX — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

I’m committed to working across the aisle to build support for these efforts because that is the most durable path forward for #ClimateAction and protecting my home state of Delaware, the nation’s lowest-lying state. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

Countries are convening today to renew their climate commitments, and I’m hopeful because President-elect Biden will make addressing climate change a top priority. He has promised to rejoin the Paris Agreement and help lead us towards a more sustainable future. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons

But instead of joining our international partners in taking steps to reach net-zero emissions by 2050, President Trump spent the last four years rolling back environmental protections and abdicating U.S. leadership on what must be a global effort to combat climate change. — PolitiTweet.org
