Women are on the front lines of the fight against #COVID19. According to NYT, women make up: 52% of all essential workers 77% of health care workers 73% of COVID infections among health workers Yet if R's get their way, GONE are key #ACA protections for women. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

Racial injustice is both an urban and rural issue, and for us to have long lasting change, we need a coalition of urban, suburban and rural Americans to confront bias and hate crimes. — PolitiTweet.org

In the middle of a global pandemic, Senate Republicans are rushing to confirm anti-ACA Trump-pick Cory Wilson to a lifetime seat on the 5th Circuit. We can’t afford another judge who doesn't believe health care is a right. #StopWilson — PolitiTweet.org

Report: President Trump and Congressional Republicans’ efforts to destroy, dismantle and defund the ACA and Medicaid expansion WILL lead to rural hospital closures, more illness and higher costs associated with the coronavirus. https://t.co/BM8xb4zEAi — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The American people should never worry their President will sabotage their health care, especially during a pandemic. But by pushing his obscene lawsuit, the President is threatening the health care of the 17 million Americans covered through Medicaid expansion. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

NASCAR met a painful moment with unity, empathy and solidarity. Hate has no place in our Nation. We must act to address this open wound and move forward, as @BubbaWallace said, together. #IStandWithBubba https://t.co/gJpgNyq5AS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

No, Mr. President. The real presidential harassment is the anti-Asian, racist rhetoric which you continue to spew. Hate has no place in our White House nor our Nation. — PolitiTweet.org

Last week’s #SCOTUS ruling rejecting President Trump’s attack on #DACA was only the beginning. I’m joining @SenatorDurbin & the entire @SenateDems caucus in calling on Leader McConnell to immediately take up the bipartisan House-passed American Dream and Promise Act. #HomeIsHere — PolitiTweet.org

Olmstead v. LC is one of the most important civil rights decision for people with disabilities in our Nation's history. Today and every day, I'm proud to be an ally for the disability community in the United States Senate and speak with them as we fight for #DisabilityRights — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

#OTD 21 years ago, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg announced the #Olmstead decision, a landmark #SCOTUS case and a crucial part of the disability community’s history which affirmed that people with disabilities have the right to live and receive services in their communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Voting by mail is a safe, secure and legal way for Americans to practice their constitutional right to vote. Don't fall for President Trump’s lies. — PolitiTweet.org

We must continue to fight for a better, fairer world where Black parents do not have to give their children The Talk: https://t.co/0a3iI9CqSk — PolitiTweet.org

George Floyd should be alive to celebrate Father’s Day today. So should Rayshard Brooks and countless other Black fathers who have died at the hands of police violence. I am thinking of their families today and I am committed to change a failed system. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

What are the President and Attorney General Barr trying to hide? This is the same kind of corruption that led to the impeachment proceeding. President Trump didn’t learn his lesson, and Barr must testify immediately. This isn't a political stunt, this is an assault on democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

I'm proud to cosponsor legislation including the Refugee Protection Act, No Ban Act and the Central American Women and Children Protection Act. The U.S. must remain a safe haven for those fleeing persecution, and recognize the contributions of refugees to American life. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

On September 26, 2019, President Trump announced plans to restrict admission of refugees to the U.S. to 18,000 for FY 2020--a historic low limit on the number of refugees. Any efforts to deny asylum to the world’s most vulnerable are antithetical to American values. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The world is witnessing the highest levels of displacement on record. According to the UN, an unprecedented 70.8 million people were displaced at the end of 2018. Among them were nearly 30 million refugees, over half of whom are under the age of 18. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Today I’m thinking of the remarkable courage displayed by the millions of refugees who flee persecution, violence and war. On #WorldRefugeeDay and every day, we must protect America’s role as a beacon of freedom and welcome the world’s most vulnerable. #RefugeesWelcome — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

As we commemorate emancipation & celebrate freedom this #Juneteenth, I’m also thinking of all the Black lives senselessly lost to police violence. Today marks 2 years since unarmed, 17-yr old Antwon Rose was killed by police in East Pittsburgh. Antwon should be alive today. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

It is past time for our federal government to formally recognize #Juneteenth as a federal holiday. My full statement: https://t.co/bxV3i93wwr — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

As we celebrate #Juneteenth in the midst of cries for justice, we are called to listen, learn and take action to create change. It is not enough to recognize one important date in history. We must propel our Nation forward toward progress. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

I’m proud PA is one of 47 states which recognize Juneteenth as a state holiday, and I believe our Nation should recognize this important day in American history as a federal holiday. But this is not a substitute for taking decisive action to protect the lives of Black Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

This day came two months after the end of the Civil War & more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, a gap which represents a delay in justice that persists to this day. Recent events in our Nation highlight that we have yet to overcome all the vestiges of slavery. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Juneteenth is a day to celebrate Black culture and history across our Nation. It is an inspiration for this generation & generations to come. And it is a day for allies like myself to pledge to lift up Black Americans year-round and reaffirm our commitment that #BlackLivesMatter — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Praying for my friend @RobbHanrahanCBS after suffering a heart attack. Robb is one of the best in the business, and his influence in PA media makes our Commonwealth stronger. Terese and I are thinking of Robb, @StaceyHanrahan and the whole family. — PolitiTweet.org

Mr. President, since you seem confused, here’s a list of President Obama’s police reforms that your Administration rolled back: https://t.co/dRWTk2e7cl — PolitiTweet.org

Medicaid expansion has provided coverage for millions during #COVID19, especially in rural communities. Any future COVID relief legislation must include strong provisions to protect Medicaid & ensure Americans have access to quality, affordable health care coverage. #FundMedicaid https://t.co/fSXs94dnx8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

This decision, though significant, doesn’t provide permanent protections for #Dreamers & TPS recipients. USCIS must immediately begin accepting DACA renewals, and Congress must pass bills to permanently protect their legal status, starting with the American Dream and Promise Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

As we celebrate today's #SCOTUS decision, I want to thank the many #DACA organizers--many undocumented themselves--who fought boldly and fiercely for this, working through unfathomable personal trauma while building a movement. Next up: a path to citizenship. #HereToStay — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Today SCOTUS stood with the American people and sent a clear message to the President: immigrant youth and families make America great. — PolitiTweet.org
