On #InternationalWomensDay and every day, it's up to all of us—especially men—to speak up about women's equality, challenge gender assumptions and stereotypes, and honor women's accomplishments. Proud to celebrate #IWD2021 today and recommit to fighting for full equality. — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to be with @rbrexperience today for #MobileSoulSunday—especially knowing that our great restaurants will soon have needed support thanks to the American Rescue Plan. More than $28 billion for restaurants, prioritizing those owned by people of color, veterans, and women! https://t.co/1jp5Bv42Vw — PolitiTweet.org

The past year has been dark, but with this much-needed relief and the acceleration of vaccinations, a brighter, healthier, more prosperous America is on the horizon. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

24 hours and 12 cups of coffee later—we are pushing on and very close to getting $1.9 trillion in relief to the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

The American Rescue Plan is packed with critical relief for families, workers, and businesses—from a national vaccination plan and support for schools to safely reopen, to extended unemployment insurance and direct aid in workers' pockets. I'll proudly vote YES on COVID relief. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Let’s take a moment today during this reading to acknowledge all of the relief that this package will provide American families, workers, and businesses. Follow along at @SenateDems for highlights—then let’s get this passed. https://t.co/I8NnUCMWpt — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

While I preside over the Senate today, one of my GOP colleagues is insisting the entire COVID package be read aloud on the floor—an effort to delay relief. But I’m confident that Americans will enjoy hearing all the ways D’s are working with @POTUS to offer meaningful relief. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

The Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act is just one piece of the work we need to do to support our frontline workers throughout this pandemic—but it's an absolutely critical piece. It's my hope that this bill will be included in our next COVID relief package. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

And not only will the impact of trauma be ongoing, but too often health care professionals face stigma in accessing treatment. It's important to change how our health care system approaches mental health and set up a more reliable infrastructure and culture for those workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

In my conversations with health workers, it's clear that this crisis is going to have a significant impact on their lives for a long time. Even as we start to see a light at the end of the tunnel, the healers who’ve been caring for everyone else will continue to feel its effects. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

In April 2020 Dr. Lorna Breen, a physician from Charlottesville, Virginia, working on the frontlines of the pandemic in New York, died by suicide—bringing this issue to the forefront of our national attention. The issue of keeping our healers healthy cannot be ignored. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Today I'm reintroducing the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act—legislation to reduce and prevent suicide, burnout, and mental health conditions among health care professionals. This is so important—now more than ever before. I hope you'll read more about it: — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

I call on Congress to promptly take up our bill to repeal these outdated and unnecessary war authorities, and for the Biden Administration to support it. It’s time to show the American people that the Article I and II branches can work together on issues as serious as war. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Last week’s airstrikes in Syria show that the Executive Branch—regardless of party—will continue to stretch its war powers. The 1991 and 2002 authorizations for use of military force serve no operational purpose, keep us on permanent war footing, and could allow future misuse. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

If we want to reduce police misconduct, we need true transparency first. That's why @RepDonBeyer and I are introducing the Cost of Police Misconduct Act today, which will give the public powerful information that will spur reform. — PolitiTweet.org

Saudi Arabia also must immediately release wrongfully held peaceful activists—including Virginian Salah Al-Haidar—and stop using travel bans and assets freezes to stifle dissent and trap U.S. citizens and residents inside its borders. These egregious human rights abuses must end. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

I'm relieved this Administration did what the Trump Administration refused to do: publicly acknowledge that MBS was responsible for the horrific killing of Virginia resident and journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Saudi Arabia must be held accountable for this heinous crime. — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher Marlowe, Levi Strauss, Buffalo Bill, Johnny Cash, Natalia Lafourcade, Corinne Bailey Rae + TK. A great day to be born. — PolitiTweet.org

Being discriminated against for who you are—or who you love—is a burden on the soul that absolutely no one deserves. I'm so glad the House has passed the Equality Act and I'm deeply proud to be a cosponsor in the Senate. Today we're one step closer to ensuring equality for all. — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago today. The Big Lie. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Great news, and more important than ever for Congress to get COVID relief passed that will help speed up the vaccine rollout. There's a light at the end of the tunnel—but we've got to keep up the masking and distancing while we push towards it. — PolitiTweet.org

A shocking story. US should be playing a leadership role in ensuring that entire countries are not shut out of vaccine deployment. https://t.co/QaXtoL0rql — PolitiTweet.org
