In April I wrote requesting CMS to issue guidance to all acute care settings to permit DSPs for all patients receiving Medicaid. Guidance from CMS will ensure compliance with the CARES Act while addressing the health care needs of older adults and people with disabilities. https://t.co/huBom0RGOQ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Pleased to see OCR rule in support of disability rights. It is critical that family members, who have essential knowledge regarding the health background and communication needs of relatives, be considered as DSPs while their relative is in acute care or other medical settings. — PolitiTweet.org

We all saw it on video with our own eyes. Do not let him gaslight you. — PolitiTweet.org

This is an important step to expand delivery, but we need to do even more, including expanding retailers that can offer delivery, expanding options for farmers and direct to consumer options, supporting mobile device capacity & ensuring ordering options are not limited to online. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

In May, I wrote to @USDA to ask about what steps they are taking to ensure SNAP participants can receive home food delivery and curbside pickup during #COVID19, and introduced legislation to expand delivery support. https://t.co/8x22fZWD8j — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

SNAP recipients will begin with access to a few grocers online, and I encourage more retailers to join this initiative and create a more inclusive food market for all Pennsylvanians. No one should have to go hungry to keep themselves and their family safe. https://t.co/wxu95NFE5T — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

UPDATE: online grocery purchasing for PA #SNAP recipients is now active at approved retailers. Pennsylvanians across the Commonwealth all deserve equal and safe access to food, especially amidst the #COVID19 pandemic, and this is a step in the right direction. — PolitiTweet.org

Breonna Taylor should be alive today. I’m calling for a ban on no-knock warrants in drug cases. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

I’ve signed, @PGNewsGuild, and encourage others to do the same. #IStandWithAlexis #IStandWithMichael — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Hate is not a value of the Pennsylvania I know. Examples like this demonstrate why it’s so crucial we pass protections like the Equality Act and my Disarm HATE Act to keep guns out of the hands of those who have committed criminal acts motivated by hate. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The LGBTQ+ community is part of what makes our Nation great, and Pride is about celebrating their contributions to society and history of resilience. The divisive fliers left at @LGBTReading by the group Patriot Front are an insult to our Commonwealth and our Nation. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

We must put a stop to police brutality and systematic racism in policing. This legislation led by @SenKamalaHarris @SenBooker and @TheBlackCaucus will bring critical reform to our systems. Read more here: https://t.co/2HAj3Qgtc9 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

I'm here in Lancaster, PA with @MayorSorace, @NAACP, residents and community leaders in solidarity against systemic racism and police brutality in America. Black Lives Matter. https://t.co/4hKb9mpJy4 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Pleased to see the important federal funding I helped secure in the CARES Act allocated to the Main Street businesses that need it most. We need to provide assistance for those who were hurt by the pandemic and the resulting economic downturn. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

We must end police brutality, hold police accountable, improve transparency in policing and create structural change that safeguards every American’s right to safety and equal justice. Proud to be an original cosponsor on Democrats’ Justice in Policing Act of 2020. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

On Saturday, I made my second plasma donation in Taylor, PA to help in the fight against COVID. #TheFightIsInUS -- if you’ve recovered from #COVID19, you have antibodies that could be used as a treatment. See if you can help others by donating plasma: https://t.co/5SycO8CGr0 https://t.co/XxywIG9Dal — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

More than 200,000 dreamers—including 41,700 health care workers—are on the front lines of the #COVID19 pandemic. If #SCOTUS upholds President Trump’s repeal of #DACA, these essential workers would be sidelined and deported to countries they barely remember. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Over 80% of Americans support DACA and Dreamers. I am one of them. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

I stand in solidarity with the Black journalists who have been barred by Pittsburgh Post-Gazette from covering protests. Silencing Black voices is never okay, but especially during such an critical time for civil rights in our Nation. #IStandWithAlexis — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Yesterday, I attended a listening session in Philadelphia with Reverend Dr. Waller & young Black leaders. We must reform our systems & try to right injustice wherever we see it. I’m committed to being the best ally I can be in this fight. I see you. I hear you. I am listening. https://t.co/qjuGGmog4Y — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Breonna Taylor should be celebrating her birthday today. As a Louisville EMT, she was one of the early heroes of this pandemic. No-knock warrants disproportionately endanger Black lives. We need reform before more tragedies occur. #SayHerName — PolitiTweet.org

After Sandy Hook, we said never again. Almost 8 years later, we’re still burying our children. I joined @CeaseFirePA @AMarch4OurLives & others to hear from those who experienced the impact of gun violence firsthand & call for urgent action. #WearOrange #GunViolenceAwarenessDay https://t.co/BCxnqWTotF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

I am proud to cosponsor @SenBooker's Breaking the Cycle of Violence Act to provide vital funding for life-saving & data-driven gun violence intervention programs—but I know this is just one of many steps we need to take. We need urgent action to combat this public health crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Today I #WearOrange in honor of those lost to gun violence. This year I'm thinking not only of the 2900 kids & teens lost every year, but of all the parents raising Black children who live in fear that their kids will be the next victim simply because of the color of their skin. https://t.co/VpG3Xbw6O2 — PolitiTweet.org
