Fat Cat President should not be “using coronavirus as the excuse“ for eliminating capital gains taxes on himself and his family. — PolitiTweet.org

Teachers have always played a consequential role in shaping our hearts and minds, but this year more than ever, it is clear how much we as a nation benefit from their dedication and creativity. Let’s all remember to #ThankATeacher for their tireless work! — PolitiTweet.org

Powerful and tragic stories of hospital workers and their families during this health emergency. Bless all who care for us. https://t.co/W34f2bf4rq — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t care who counts him out. Southern civil rights lawyers stick together. All in for Doug Jones! https://t.co/ePKZZOXbVC — PolitiTweet.org

We have to provide ample—and flexible—funds for state and local governments so we don’t see cuts to education and layoffs of teachers and first responders. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Senator McConnell bringing Senate back next week—but doesn’t want to take up COVID-19 legislation. We’ve got to focus on aid to families and individuals and provide resources to state and local governments so they don’t have to lay off first responders during a health emergency. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

The worst thing Congress could do right now is force local governments to lay off firefighters, police, and EMT. We need to provide more relief through direct funding for both individuals and state and local governments. — PolitiTweet.org

As millions of Muslims across Virginia and the globe begin the holy month of Ramadan, I wish all who are observing… https://t.co/fLIoZl4AQ7 — PolitiTweet.org

We're in the fourth month of this pandemic, and the Administration still doesn't have a national testing strategy. They *must* set a metric of success for testing and give Congress and the American public a daily report about how we’re doing against that metric. This is basic. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Our economic crisis is driven by a public health crisis. No matter how much money we put into economic recovery, it won’t be sufficient until we better address the health crisis—that starts with testing. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

A great story about how an important pillar of the Virginia arts community is creatively dealing with the COVID-19 challenge. https://t.co/6ZNleIWIOE — PolitiTweet.org

On the 50th anniversary of #EarthDay let’s celebrate this planet we’ve been given—and remember that with that gift comes a duty to protect it for future generations. We’ve got to keep fighting for a clean environment and lead the world on solutions to our climate crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve learned a lot of things from my senior senator, but I’m proud to say cooking isn’t one of them. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

The Trump Administration’s deployment of tests has been an abysmal failure. Congress is taking action where the President failed to so we can finally start establishing a national testing strategy that helps save lives and paves the way to reopen businesses. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

During Yom Hashoah, people around the world come together to remember the 6 million Jews killed during the Holocaust. #WeRemember in order to ensure the horror of systemic persecution is not repeated—and we recommit ourselves in the fight against hate. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Pathetic attempt to shift blame from his Visible Incompetence to an Invisible Enemy. The President needs to reread the Declaration of Independence, criticizing King George for restricting immigration to America. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @SenAngusKing: As coronavirus creates economic uncertainty and forces more Americans to self-isolate, reports show increases in stress,… — PolitiTweet.org

Black Maternal Health Week serves as a critical reminder to listen to and trust Black women. From disproportionate maternal mortality rates that Black women face to the systemic bias they experience in the health care system, we must address this inequity. #BMHW20 — PolitiTweet.org

I think about Liviu Librescu every year on this day. His story breaks my heart. He knew better than most the danger of being bystanders. In his memory, let us resolve not to stand by as the scourge of gun violence continues to ravage our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

13 years ago, we lost 32 precious souls, and 23 others were hurt in the tragic shooting at Virginia Tech. It was the worst day of my life and the lives of so many in the Hokie community. Today and all days, we remember and honor those lives. #VTWeRemember — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

The coronavirus is disproportionately impacting communities of color. That should be deeply troubling to all of us. If we're going to take action to reduce this disparity—and we must—step one is getting data. @HHSGov needs to collect racial and demographic data on COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Of course President Trump wants to defund the WHO in a pandemic. All of his budgets propose slashing WHO, NIH, CDC, HHS. And his main focus—eliminating the ACA so he can take health care away from millions. President Grim Reaper. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

We know that people who experience domestic violence are at increased risk right now, and requests for sexual assault and domestic violence-related services have sharply increased. The CARES Act helps, but it's not enough—we must provide additional funding to support these needs. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

My heart sinks as I learn this morning that Bishop Gerald Glenn, pastor of New Deliverance Evangelistic Church, died yesterday from COVID-19. He was a friend and pillar of Richmond faith community. May all do as much for so many. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Happy Easter! While we can’t worship together in person today, we are together in spirit — and on this holiday marking new life and beginnings, let’s remember to look for signs of hope. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

These commonsense reforms are an enormous achievement that will make Virginia communities safer. I'm proud of the Virginia General Assembly's work to pass comprehensive legislation to reduce gun violence—we must build on it at the federal level. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

In the 4th month of this global pandemic, the most powerful nation in the world still lacks testing capacity sufficient to test our armed forces. Shocking. https://t.co/YyTFw5DHGM — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Kaine @timkaine

Despite large figures being touted by Trump’s team, I haven’t heard from any Virginia businesses that have actually received funds. Banks have money ready to lend. Applications have been approved. The Trump Administration needs to get it together and get funding out ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org
