I applaud @POTUS for taking executive action to protect LGBTQ kids from bigoted legal attacks from legislatures and far-right governors across the Nation. Now, Congress must act to codify equal protections nationwide for LGBTQ children and adults. We must pass the Equality Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

2 years ago, the Supreme Court ruled that no one can be fired for their sexual orientation or gender identity. The Bostock ruling was groundbreaking, but LGBTQ people still face discrimination in housing, education & more. We must do more, starting with passing the Equality Act. — PolitiTweet.org

ICYMI: The Senate HELP Committee passed a bill that incorporates key parts of my Protect Infants from Formula Shortages Act. https://t.co/d1GHCxAgQF — PolitiTweet.org

On the 10 year anniversary of #DACA & every day, I stand with the 20,000 Dreamers who call Pennsylvania home. They are a critical part of our communities & economy. It's long past time for Congress to pass the #DREAMAct & give Dreamers security & a future they can count on. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Last week, I met with several Philadelphia students to discuss the Nation’s epidemic of gun violence. I left inspired and more determined than ever because here's the thing: We can act to #ProtectOurKids while still respecting the rights of responsible gun owners. We CAN do both. — PolitiTweet.org

With dedicated federal investment, strong local coordination and the hardworking spirit of NEPA, I believe Scranton-New York rail service can move from a legacy of the past to a reality for the future. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Restoring service to Scranton has long been a priority of mine. Thanks to @POTUS's infrastructure law, we have the opportunity to compete for funding to get it done. This historic funding will help rebuild and revitalize American rail infrastructure while also expanding service. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Direct rail service between Scranton and NYC would generate $87 million annually and cut the travel time between cities. That's why I've been pushing the @USDOTFRA to invest in reestablishing passenger rail service along this important corridor. https://t.co/ReV8cVXVNd — PolitiTweet.org

No parent should ever be unable to identify their children’s bodies because the power of the weapon used against them made them unrecognizable. https://t.co/rW0F7bJmFD — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: In response to the infant formula crisis, the Senate HELP Committee just passed legislation to protect families and babies from future shortages. By empowering the FDA with the tools they need, we can stop future shortages before they start. — PolitiTweet.org

The Lehigh Valley International Airport has received more than $11.5 million in federal funding to make tarmac and runway improvements and further its TSA checkpoint relocation project. #PAMapSpotlight https://t.co/69Ay5Z8KA0 https://t.co/CIGSyh6sOd — PolitiTweet.org

820,000 seniors and people with disabilities are waiting to receive home care. Millions more rely on it as a lifeline. My #BetterCareBetterJobs Act would connect them to health care and create good-paying jobs in the process. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Nearly 9 miles of track, including 14 rail bridges, between Boyertown and Pottstown will be repaired or replaced thanks to federal funding. It’s a meaningful investment in the people and infrastructure of Berks County. https://t.co/nCwGLDw6cN — PolitiTweet.org

My Five Freedoms for America’s Children initiative is about ensuring that every child in America has the freedom to reach their full potential, from health to setting them on a path to career success. https://t.co/ev6utM5XU8 https://t.co/Y9ASj1CeKX — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Investing in our children—our future leaders and innovators—is the most important investment we can make. Our kids aren’t only facing a pandemic and gun violence. In the wealthiest, most powerful Nation in the world, too many kids lack basic necessities. #ChildrensWeek — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Civil rights activist and pioneer Medgar Evers was assassinated outside his Mississippi home on this day in 1963. His life was taken in an act of white supremacist violence but his courage and legacy continue to inspire us to keep fighting for racial justice & for our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

On the 6th anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub shooting, we must do more than simply remember a horrific attack on the LGBTQ community and the loss of 49 lives. America’s epidemic of gun violence requires action from Congress. I’m beyond ready to pass commonsense gun legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

I’m encouraged by the emerging bipartisan deal on gun legislation. While we need to do more to close loopholes and keep weapons of war off our streets, this deal is an important first step. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

55 years ago, the Supreme Court decision “Loving v. Virginia” struck down state-level interracial marriage bans. It was one of the most significant steps forward in the march for equality, a march we remain on to this day. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Quality, affordable home care allows families to thrive. Daughters caring for ailing mothers can go back to work. Parents caring for a child with a disability don’t have to worry about how they’ll get by. Passing my #BetterCareBetterJobs would allow them to rejoin the workforce. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The right to vote is the most fundamental. Every Republican-led effort to restrict access to the ballot or purge active voters from the rolls is an attack on our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

This Medicare Fraud Prevention Week, learn more about what to watch out for when it comes to health care-related scams. @PennsylvaniaSMP is a great resource for seniors and families who rely on such a critical program. https://t.co/t5BGYA8wwJ #MFPW — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

No one should be discriminated against for who they are or whom they love. LGBTQ Pennsylvanians are our friends, siblings, cousins, parents, nurses, engineers, veterans and more. They deserve nothing less than full equality. — PolitiTweet.org

Calling all Pennsylvania college students and grads looking for an introduction to public service: You can now apply for a paid internship in my offices in Pennsylvania and D.C. https://t.co/8ZhaFzENxI — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Last night's January 6 hearing made clear how far some were willing to go at President Trump's behest to overturn the will of the voters two years ago. We need accountability to ensure this never happens again. Our democracy is only as strong as those willing to defend it. — PolitiTweet.org

.@POTUS’s infrastructure law is delivering $1.15 million to Conemaugh River Lake in Indiana County for dredging & surveys, an improvement to the dam that will allow aquatic life to pass through safely & upgrades to their Visitor Center. #PAMapSpotlight https://t.co/nSMQ6GV8OS https://t.co/qkl9433CFl — PolitiTweet.org

Right now, companies can institute anti-union campaigns and mandatory staff meetings… and write them off on their taxes. My #NoTaxBreaksForUnionBusting buts an end to that. — PolitiTweet.org
