Lin and Jinks have been the key inspiration for my wife Anne’s public service career. Lin was also a magnificent grandfather. I will always be thankful for his role in my life. — PolitiTweet.org

I mourn the loss of my father-in-law Linwood Holton. He was my friend and public service role model. His courageous efforts to end racial discrimination in Virginia—born out of deep religious conviction about the equality of all God’s children—made him a moral pillar for so many. — PolitiTweet.org

The combination of the child tax credit, universal pre-K, and affordable access to both child and senior care makes the Build Back Better framework a truly historic investment in our families and our future. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

The Build Back Better framework will do enormous good for families and workers in Virginia and across the nation. By investing in job training, pre-K, and child care, it will help kids get a stronger start in life—and get their parents back to work, boosting our economy. — PolitiTweet.org

This afternoon I'll speak on the Senate floor to call for the swift passage of the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. It's time to restore the full protections of the landmark Voting Rights Act and stop the spread of voter suppression. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @HalaAyala: Ran in to a few friends backstage! Arlington, are you ready for @JoeBiden? https://t.co/w8ja4YMYhI — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

OK folks, you heard it straight from @JoeBiden—and @KamalaHarris and @BarackObama—we've gotta go win this for Terry! Vote, volunteer, donate, tell your neighbors, tell your friends, and don't wake up next week wishing you'd done more. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Virginia is for voters, and we're one week out! But remember, Election Day isn't your first chance to vote, it's your last. Find out where to vote early in person (through Saturday, October 30!) or drop off your completed absentee ballot: https://t.co/NCvxcUdtZV — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

More evidence for the urgent need to pass a Build Back Better plan that includes robust support for job training and helps people get back to work in good-paying jobs. https://t.co/ySH7q13pg1 — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Shocked to hear about Sidney Gunst’s death. One of the most active people—and active minds—I’ve ever known. https://t.co/ft7Hmj5XQN — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Great news for Virginia as we bring good-paying jobs to the Commonwealth and work towards the clean energy economy our planet needs! — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

When @BarackObama was running for President, I told him: "If you believe in Virginia, Virginia will believe in you." Well, he believed, and we did too. Glad to have him back in RVA today on the trail for @TerryMcAuliffe—the nation is watching Virginia, so let's go win this thing. https://t.co/djYcnPxjPP — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

This way to victory. (Thanks for coming out to the Commonwealth, @KamalaHarris!) https://t.co/068J7exFjh — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

With my friend @HalaAyala about to head on stage in Prince William County and talk to some fired up Virginians about this important election (and we've got the high honor of warming up the crowd for @KamalaHarris, too)! 12 days to go—let's get it done: https://t.co/5VQPvHxlGJ https://t.co/mJN04BHsUx — PolitiTweet.org

Today Americans have plainly seen that Democrats are unified in wanting to protect their right to vote—and Republicans are unified in opposition. The fight doesn’t end here. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

I just voted to proceed to debate on the Freedom to Vote Act. I’ll fight for real progress on this issue like our democracy depends on it—because it does. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Today the Senate will vote on whether we should proceed to debate on the Freedom to Vote Act. Democrat, Republican, or Independent—we should all agree that people’s right to vote is important enough to at least debate this bill. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

I will do everything in my power to get the Freedom to Vote Act passed—because making progress on everything from climate to gun violence prevention starts with getting special interests and dark money out of our elections. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Two weeks from right now, polls will be closing across Virginia. Folks, we can't afford complacency—and we can't afford to roll back our progress. Vote: https://t.co/B21QKpeiSj Donate: https://t.co/jENHOg5xEA Volunteer: https://t.co/XKyw4Z9BPf — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks Governor Northam for using our American Rescue Plan to connect hundreds of thousands of Virginians to high-speed internet! — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

GOP-led states are shamelessly using Trump's Big Lie to restrict voting access. Tomorrow, when the Freedom to Vote Act comes to the Senate floor, we have an opportunity to prevent that kind of election sabotage and interference. We owe it to American voters to get this done. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

These derailments were unacceptable, and yet another reminder of how critical it is to get our bipartisan infrastructure legislation—which includes WMATA funding—across the finish line. It's time to upgrade our public transit systems so folks can get where they need to go safely. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @vademocrats: 🚨🚨 15 days until Election Day, Virginia!🚨🚨 @TerryMcAuliffe, @HalaAyala, @MarkHerringVA and Democrats up and down the ball… — PolitiTweet.org

General Colin Powell was an admirable public servant and a great Virginian. My thoughts are with his loved ones. — PolitiTweet.org

There is a way through this pandemic: getting vaccinated. If you've got friends or family who are still on the fence, I encourage you to have open conversations with them about the safety, efficacy, and importance of vaccination. https://t.co/oaA8MpQbah has helpful info to share. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Our child poverty rate is unacceptable—and so is saying we can't do anything about it. We can and we will—the impact of the child tax credit, child care funding, universal pre-K, and paid leave in the Build Back Better plan can do for kids what Social Security has for seniors. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

We’ve got to do everything we can to make sure folks turn out to elect Virginia Democrats—if you’ve already voted or have your plan to vote, now is the time to get your friends and family on board, or knock on doors in your neighborhood. https://t.co/iiMlaIRvJx has resources! — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Next week, the Senate will take up the Freedom to Vote Act. This is not about Democratic votes or Republican votes, but about every single American vote being cast without obstacles. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

It's within our power to cut child poverty nearly in half—we've just got to pass the Build Back Better plan. From the child tax credit to other policies that help young families like paid leave and universal pre-K, this legislation would be transformative for our kids. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Earlier this month I spoke on the Senate floor about the Build Back Better plan. The bottom line: This legislation is without question the key to creating jobs that will build our nation's infrastructure. The time has come to get this thing passed—let's get it done. — PolitiTweet.org
