Proud to reintroduce my Medicare-X plan with @MichaelBennet. The past year has laid bare just how critical achieving universal health coverage is—and our plan to create a public option built on Medicare will help make coverage more accessible and more affordable. — PolitiTweet.org

Grateful for all the volunteers and the @VaNationalGuard who are supporting the administration of vaccines today at the Salem Civic Center. Mask up, get vaccinated when you’re eligible, and stay safe! https://t.co/krGe1WJ82w — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Valentine’s Day! I am an Earth Dog Pisces married to a Fire Rooster Aquarius. Apparently, this is supposed to be a disaster. But—keeps getting better! — PolitiTweet.org

I will vote to convict because seven people needlessly died and hundreds were injured by a former President’s egregious lies. So many risked all to protect us. The least we can do is protect them by voting to condemn and thus prevent behavior that should never be repeated. — PolitiTweet.org

And make no mistake: The events of January 6th—seven dead, the first siege of our Capitol in over 200 years, the disruption of the peaceful transfer of power—are the direct result of that first acquittal. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

I will vote to convict President Trump in his second impeachment trial. A year ago—upon the conclusion of President Trump’s first impeachment trial—I said “Unchallenged evil spreads like a virus,” and that an acquittal would lead to worse behavior. — PolitiTweet.org

Question for my Senate colleagues: Rioters shouted “hang Mike Pence” and called him a traitor. Where did they get the idea that Pence did anything wrong? — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Trump saw Congress under siege as an opportunity to stop the peaceful transfer of power! And hours later, when Capitol police were still fighting for their lives, he had Giuliani call Tuberville to beg again. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Most shocking revelation from trial thus far: Pence taken from chamber to protect his life at 2:13 pm. Trump sends tweet trashing Pence to millions, then calls Tuberville while Senate is under lockdown. He asks Tuberville for help to delay—or stop—calling the election. — PolitiTweet.org

Officer Eugene Goodman’s heroic actions on January 6th saved lives. I was proud to sponsor this resolution to award him the Congressional Gold Medal. I offer my deepest gratitude to Officer Goodman. — PolitiTweet.org

I strongly support ending the death penalty—a policy that has been applied in a manifestly racist way throughout our history. I applaud our Virginia legislators for sending a powerful message around the country and world today, and am working to do the same at the federal level. — PolitiTweet.org

This is why I am fighting so hard for the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act. https://t.co/X6ugh35mtX — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

As @POTUS has said, we are not at risk of going too big with this package. When you look at this crisis—the death rates, the shock to our economy, the mental health tolls—the scale is staggering, and the impacts are going to be longterm. We can't go small, and we can't delay. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

The fact is, lifting up these stories and naming these people is not the best way to honor them. The way to honor them is through compassionate, prompt, and significant action to ease the suffering of Americans during unprecedented times. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Today I spoke on the Senate floor about COVID. I shared stories from nurses whose experiences will break your heart. I talked about housing. And for the second time, I read the names of the people I know who have died—nine as of this week. I don't want to do this a third time. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

My heart goes out to the family and loved ones of Officer Brian Sicknick today—his death was a tragedy, and together we mourn this unnecessary loss of life. — PolitiTweet.org

And as we celebrate #BHM we also must acknowledge that we've got real work to do to reach our founding principle of equality and to change the systems that protect and promote injustice. — PolitiTweet.org

On the first day of #BlackHistoryMonth I'm thinking of Virginians like Mildred Loving, Arthur Ashe, Barbara Johns, Maggie Walker, Doug Wilder. The contributions of Black Americans to our Commonwealth and country are invaluable, and this month is an opportunity to celebrate them. — PolitiTweet.org

For far too long, Virginia’s neighbors in D.C. have been denied their civil rights and subject to taxation without proper representation. Statehood is common sense—pleased to join @MarkWarner and @SenatorCarper to make it happen. — PolitiTweet.org
