Grateful to finally see action on repealing these outdated AUMFs. So much has changed since 1991 and 2002—this movement on our AUMF repeal bill represents a bipartisan recognition of this evolution and a widespread desire to not keep old war authorizations on the books. — PolitiTweet.org

Pleased that the Senate has unanimously passed a bill establishing Juneteenth as a national holiday—and glad that hundreds of thousands of federal workers, so many of whom call Virginia home, will be able to mark this meaningful day. — PolitiTweet.org

On the 9th anniversary of DACA, I'm committed to working with my Senate colleagues to provide protections for Dreamers and secure their path to citizenship. Dreamers who call Virginia and America home are a part of the fabric of our nation—let's honor and protect them. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Great to see the Biden Administration support repeal of the 2002 AUMF—an important first step in working together on war power issues. I look forward to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee acting on the Kaine-Young bill to repeal the 2002 and 1991 AUMFs soon. — PolitiTweet.org

Today I'm holding in my heart the loved ones of the 49 people who were killed at Pulse Nightclub five years ago. On this tragic anniversary, let us recommit to keeping our LGBTQ brothers and sisters safe and battling the scourge of gun violence that takes too many lives too soon. — PolitiTweet.org

I have known Carlos Del Toro for 20 years and cannot imagine a better pick to be Secretary of the Navy. His patriotic Navy service and his successful entrepreneurial career make him the right choice to take the helm of the Navy at such a critical time. — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @RTDMPW of the @RTDNEWS! You have made Richmonders think about the important issues for years. — PolitiTweet.org

Darnella Frazier is an incredible and brave example of the power each of us can have in propelling America towards justice. Congratulations on this much deserved award. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2013 I wrote an op-ed opposing Keystone XL, saying: “Someday when I am long retired from the Senate and kids ask me what I did for energy and the environment, I want to tell them a story about how the United States led the way.” This is a critical step on that path! — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @HalaAyala and @MarkHerringVA! Ready to re-elect Mark to his third term as Attorney General and elect Hala as Virginia's first woman Lieutenant Governor and first woman of color to serve in a statewide office. We're lucky to have so many strong Dems here in VA! — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Honored to endorse my good friend, the incredible 72nd and 74th Governor of Virginia @TerryMcAuliffe! He's going to need a grassroots army to win this thing, so chip in today: https://t.co/LcvVqTvtIY — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Congratulations to my friend @TerryMcAuliffe! Excited to work with you to keep Virginia blue in November. We were lucky to have many great leaders on the ballot today—congratulations to every one of our Democrats on their hard-fought campaigns. On to November! — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Virginians, there's still time to go vote in today's primary elections! As long as you're in line by 7:00 PM, you can vote—so double check your polling place and head over (and bring a friend, while you're at it). https://t.co/B21QKpeiSj has all the details you need. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Women deserve to be paid fairly for their work. It's common sense. The Paycheck Fairness Act is a step to ensure that happens—and that our economy builds back stronger from COVID-19. Proud to cosponsor this legislation and I urge my colleagues to join me in voting for it. — PolitiTweet.org

Praying for the swift recovery of our National Guard soldiers who have been injured in this crash. — PolitiTweet.org

Polls are open in Virginia! No matter which of our great Democrats you're supporting, head to https://t.co/B21QKpeiSj to confirm your polling place, then make time to go cast your ballot. Make your voice heard—and let's get ready to keep our Commonwealth blue! — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Today I’m thinking of the 32 lives lost at Virginia Tech in 2007, the 12 lives lost in Virginia Beach in 2019, and the countless lives impacted by gun violence everywhere. Thankful for the commitment of @MomsDemand and more to ending this scourge. #WearOrange — PolitiTweet.org

Iron Gate to Lynchburg on the James River this week. Otter, mink, bald eagles, common mergansers, Baltimore orioles, scarlet tanagers. Virginia is for nature lovers! #GreatOutdoorsMonth https://t.co/OUTpmdzAPP — PolitiTweet.org

As we mark #ImmigrantHeritageMonth I am so pleased to celebrate the remarkable contributions of Virginia's immigrant communities. We are a better, stronger, more innovative Commonwealth because of immigrants, and this month is an opportunity to recognize and appreciate that! — PolitiTweet.org

The first day of #PrideMonth is a great time to remind ourselves that #LoveisLove! I proudly stand with and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community in Virginia and across the globe. (Selfie from VA Pride Fest 2018...I'll keep practicing.) https://t.co/FpfFLktFn2 — PolitiTweet.org

This #MemorialDay I hope you'll join me in taking a moment to honor the patriots who have sacrificed for our country. I'm also thinking of our military families whose loved ones have bravely served, and whose courage and support are exceptional. — PolitiTweet.org

The purpose of a commission to uncover what led to the January 6th insurrection is to prevent such an attack from ever happening again. How in the world can any member of Congress be against that? — PolitiTweet.org

I am stunned at the loss of John Warner. Virginia has lost an unmatched leader, and my family has lost a dear friend. My condolences go out to Jeanne and the entire Warner family. https://t.co/j3GQj29Fkm — PolitiTweet.org
