After every mass shooting, the Administration promises action only to stall long enough for people to forget. We will never forget about the lives senselessly lost to gun violence. It’s beyond time for the White House and Senate to #DoSomething. https://t.co/a6KF8rtFGA — PolitiTweet.org

Education is the great equalizer, yet far too many Americans lack access to an affordable, quality college education.

Nearly 1 million students could lose automatic access to free school lunches under the Administration’s proposed SNAP changes. It is unconscionable that children should have to worry about their next meal instead of focusing on their education, #HandsOffSNAP — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to @SenBobCasey & @SenBillCassidy for introducing a companion bill to the End All Hazing Act, which I introduced in the House in June. Legislation that prevents hazing on college campuses by increasing accountability for student organizations is long overdue. — PolitiTweet.org

The President’s comparison of congressional oversight to the history of heinous acts of racial terrorism inflicted on African Americans is racist, insensitive, reprehensible, and yet another reason why he is unfit for office. His shameful language continues to know no bottom. — PolitiTweet.org
