Why is it that when it comes to confirming right-wing judges, Senate Republicans always make the time. But when it comes to making real changes to police departments, Senate Republicans are already making excuses? We won't stop fighting for action on the #JusticeInPolicing Act! — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Americans are taking to the streets demanding change. But Senate Republicans want to wait another month or more before even just considering police reform?! By delaying action, Republicans are playing the same dangerous games they played after mass shootings last summer. — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Congress needs to quickly pass strong and bold legislation with provisions that makes it easier to hold police officers accountable for abuses, and President Trump must commit to signing it into law. https://t.co/B9VjPKfZi1 — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

While Pres. Trump's finally acknowledged the need for policing reform—one modest executive order will not make up for his years of inflammatory rhetoric & policies designed to roll back progress Unfortunately, this executive order will not deliver comprehensive meaningful change https://t.co/JgcjHudgdp — PolitiTweet.org

The Supreme Court decision prohibiting employment discrimination for LGBTQ+ Americans is a step forward, but reminds us that we have so much more work to do The next step is to pass the Equality Act Sen. McConnell: Join the rest of the country. Put the bill on the Senate floor — PolitiTweet.org

It’s been a month since the House passed the #HeroesAct that provides urgent and necessary help for Americans fighting the COVID-19 health and economic crisis. A month in Senator McConnell's legislative graveyard. Senator McConnell: Americans can't wait. We must act NOW! — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

It’s been 30 days since the House passed the #HeroesAct that provides urgent and necessary help for Americans fighting the COVID-19 health and economic crisis. 30 days in Senator McConnell's legislative graveyard. Senator McConnell: Americans can't wait. We must act NOW! — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Police reform, racial injustice, voting rights, a pandemic, and massive levels of unemployment: These are huge issues that demand the Senate's attention But instead, Senator McConnell’s pushing two right-wing judges onto the nation’s circuit courts: Justin Walker & Cory Wilson — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Cory Wilson has supported restrictive voter ID laws and expressed strong opposition to parts of the Voting Rights Act. That’s right. During a national movement on racial justice, Senate Republicans are trying to confirm a judge with a hostile record on voting rights! — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

The emergency unemployment insurance we passed in the CARES Act is soon going to run out The ban on evictions in the CARES Act is going to expire But reports say Sen. McConnell has told Senate Republicans not to expect another COVID-relief bill until late July. We must act! — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

This headline sums it up And the trends are extremely concerning I’ve asked for Dr. Fauci, Dr. Birx, members of the Coronavirus Task Force to brief @SenateDems on recent spikes But the Trump White House continues to muzzle the most knowledgeable people https://t.co/ZzJYq2VryF — PolitiTweet.org

Being killed by police is now the sixth-leading cause of death for young men in America Young Black men are 2.5 times more likely than their white peers to be killed by police Senate Democrats are demanding bold and broad-scale change with the #JusticeInPolicing Act — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

The Supreme Court did the right thing & ruled that federal employment discrimination protections do extend to LGBTQ+ Americans Sen McConnell—Now you need to let the Senate vote on the Equality Act! NO American should face discrimination because of who they are or who they love — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Senator McConnell: Americans are in the middle of fighting this COVID-19 public health crisis. So why are you focusing on confirming your former intern, Justin Walker, who has made it very clear that he personally opposes our health care law?! — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. McConnell: The House passed a bill to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act over a year ago COVID-19 is fueling a surge in domestic violence cases It is long past time to act Put the bill up for a vote NOW It will save lives & help survivors https://t.co/r34YirGhDu — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

A Trump ally & GOP donor—Louis DeJoy is the 1st Postmaster General in decades without direct Postal Service experience! Americans who rely on the Postal Service—to communicate, vote, conduct business—deserve to know if he was selected because of politics https://t.co/JG2aitavmo — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

For Don Zarda and Aimee Stephens who did not live to see this day. For Gerald Bostock. Thank you for all you’ve done to fight for equality. And we'll keep fighting for the Equality Act and progress. Because LGBTQ+ rights are human rights. #PrideMonth — PolitiTweet.org

America: Do not listen to President Trump on any medical advice. His own FDA is rejecting his advice on hydroxychloroquine. On medical issues like on so much else, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. https://t.co/9CXZWnyV5f — PolitiTweet.org

The long march for equality takes a step forward. The real answer is to pass the Equality Act, but we all breathe a sigh of relief that the Supreme Court did the right thing. — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump and Senator Mitch McConnell: Joining with the @RidersAlliance, I’m standing with those on the frontlines of COVID-19 and so many others who are relying right now on public transit like our New York subways. We need to fight for more $$ to #RescueRiders now. https://t.co/keTBdoOHLg — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

So proud to join Long Island Pride! Because even if we can’t march and dance together this year in person, the LGBTQ+ community will never stop being proud, showing pride, making your voices heard, and holding power accountable so that America lives up to our ideals. #PrideMonth — PolitiTweet.org

We cannot simply sit by as this pandemic fuels a surge in domestic violence cases. Senator McConnell: The House passed a bill to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act more than a year ago. Put it on the Senate floor immediately. It will save lives and help survivors. — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

With COVID-19, there has a been a rise in domestic violence cases. New York has seen a 33% surge. Senator McConnell: Hold a vote on the House-passed bill to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act NOW. What are you waiting for?! It will save lives and help survivors. — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Senator Mitch McConnell: Americans need more support to fight the COVID-19 health and economic crisis. Americans are demanding policing reform. What are you waiting for?! We must act. https://t.co/89G3pMi1IQ — PolitiTweet.org

Sec. @BetsyDeVosED's latest attempt to block COVID-relief for DACA students is cruel & unlawful So many Dreamers have been on the frontlines of COVID, and many desperately need this aid We will keep fighting for them & all students struggling to recover https://t.co/YkROKC8u8u — PolitiTweet.org
