Millions of Latinos are on the front lines of this pandemic—folks critical to our communities who have long faced barriers to the American dream. This Hispanic Heritage Month, we recognize the immense contributions of Hispanic and Latino Americans to our Nation. #HHM https://t.co/Jd0TiYC1Tz — PolitiTweet.org

As my colleague @SenStabenow said of Sec. Perdue, "he certainly put together a program that favored the crops in his state.” Don't let this report be buried. This is alarming for the equity and support our small businesses and working families deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Just one example: in Pennsylvania, the average payment rate in 2019 was $8,661 per farmer. The average payment rate nationally was nearly doubly that rate, and in Georgia, the average farmer received $42,545 per farmer, almost 5 times that rate in Pennsylvania. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

From the start, I’ve been concerned that the Trump Admin’s trade payments to farmers favor large farms in the South and cut out PA's small farms. This report speaks for itself: favoring certain crops & choosing large agricultural operations over small business & working families. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Proud to score a perfect 💯 on @cleanh2oaction's scorecard for this Congress. It's obscene that the GOP-controlled Senate has brushed aside critical health and climate legislation. Today and every day, I'm committed to building the just, sustainable future we all deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The Trump/Republican lawsuit against affordable health care & the botched pandemic response are inexcusable. I'm joining @ProtectOurCare @RepCartwright & others to call for an end to the GOP’s war on Pennsylvanians’ health care. Watch LIVE at 11:45 AM ET: https://t.co/huZ8A984Ux — PolitiTweet.org

This is about Antwon Rose. And it’s also about Breonna Taylor. George Floyd. Philando Castile. Michael Brown. Tamir Rice. It's about not looking away. It’s about reforming our systems and committing to try and right injustice wherever we see it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

It's been just over 2 years since unarmed, 17-yr old Antwon Rose was killed by police in East Pittsburgh. Antwon should be alive today. I commend the @steelers for honoring his memory and sharing his story on one of the biggest stages imaginable. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The USPS delays aren't just overwhelming statistics. They affect everyone. Our Veterans. People with disabilities. Seniors. Children. Families. It's Kathleen's rent check. Clara's bills. Lisa's daughter's critical medications. So I made a few calls. These are their stories. https://t.co/uh3ja6Qim8 — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing grandparents, including those who are primary caregivers, a wonderful #GrandparentsDay! As a recent GAO report highlighted, these grandparents provide stability and security for children when their parents are unable to care for them: https://t.co/aAp1WB1xNK — PolitiTweet.org

We remember. https://t.co/jjJI3hj7Q0 — PolitiTweet.org

The courage and bravery of these ordinary Americans saved countless lives when they thwarted terrorist efforts to attack the U.S. Capitol. I pray for these heroes, their families and all those who lost their lives as the result of the attacks that took place 19 years ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

This morning I have the honor of attending the remembrance ceremony at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, PA--the final resting place of the 40 heroes of Flight 93. Watch live: https://t.co/erH5UkmRbj — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Americans are hurting. Republicans need to come to the table to negotiate a bill that provides real relief to families and communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

...no additional federal funding for Medicaid to help states cover the cost of care for a growing number of those in need through no fault of their own, or for hospitals on the front lines of the pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The Republican bill doesn’t provide any additional money for nursing homes. And it has no investment to help seniors and people with disabilities receive the services they need to stay safe at home,... — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

It has no support for food assistance, no relief for renters facing eviction, no funding for state and local governments which are laying off employees because the federal government isn’t helping them. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Today’s vote was another bad faith effort by Republicans, who refused to engage in meaningful and bipartisan negotiations all summer. This proposal fails to meet the needs of workers and families who have been struggling for months. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

And we still don’t have a federally-directed testing strategy. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Pleased to be talking with Caroline at @NBCPhiladelphia about my new report with @SenWarren. We reveal mail-order pharmacies are facing unacceptable @USPS delays under Postmaster DeJoy that threaten the health of millions during this pandemic & may mean higher costs to taxpayers. https://t.co/kI2JR130zw — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Over the next few days you’re likely to hear a lot of Republicans in Washington offering excuses or flat out denying these reports. Don’t believe them. It’s literally on tape. — PolitiTweet.org

"Trump admitted to Woodward on March 19 that he deliberately minimized the danger. 'I wanted to always play it down.'" By publicly downplaying COVID-19, the President failed in his most basic, fundamental responsibility to keep us safe and now almost 200,000 Americans are dead. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The White House press sec, just today during a news briefing as reported by @washingtonpost: “The president has never lied to the American public on covid.” #FactCheck: https://t.co/kO6tqptXLh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

✅ support for state & local governments ✅ funding to help the unemployed ✅ food for hungry children These aren’t some ideological wish list. They’re essential responses to this public health crisis that the GOP has thus far cast aside in favor of corporate handouts. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

From the policies we write to the conversations we have with our kids at the kitchen table, there is still much work to do to help achieve equal rights and justice under the law for all. #BlackLivesMatter — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Ruby Bridges, one of the first Black children to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South, turned 66 years old today. It’s a reminder that the fight for civil rights isn't ancient history. And it’s not over. https://t.co/SJVP6md0Mn — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Of course it didn't. President Trump and the GOP are using the courts, Congress and regulatory sabotage to rip away health care from millions with no plan whatsoever to replace or improve it—except to use the courts to overturn protections for those with pre-existing conditions. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Day after day, our essential workers work in harm's way in order to keep us safe and healthy. This #LaborDay2020 is especially significant as we #HonorEssentialWorkers and all those who have kept our communities running during these difficult times. We owe a debt of gratitude. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Unions and working families built the middle class and secured fair wages, a 40 hr work week & safe working conditions. This #LaborDay2020 and every day, I’m proud to be a strong union ally. I will never stop fighting to make sure your rights, retirements & futures are protected. https://t.co/c09M5DfjRD — PolitiTweet.org
