Climate change is the greatest threat to our planet. We must fight it every chance we get. I worked with @SenatorCarper & @EPWDems to ensure the highway bill that passed the Committee on Environment and Public Works includes $10B for climate programs. https://t.co/HgkbyI5hoU https://t.co/BEn2cfXBuA — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

I took to the floor with @SenatorDurbin & @SenatorMenendez to demand we pass the bipartisan, House-passed Venezuela TPS Act. But Senate Republicans blocked it. We can't ignore the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela. We have to act. Now. https://t.co/o3N5fSvt0U — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Mueller called Putin’s interference one of the greatest threats to democracy he has seen in his career, a threat that continues 'as we sit here.' This is about protecting free and fair elections, and we will not let up until the appropriate election safeguards are in place. https://t.co/p9RyfyhPKr — PolitiTweet.org

#Throwback to the moment when a room full of CEOs shocked President @realDonaldTrump’s top economic advisor Gary Cohn when they refused to raise their hands to confirm that they would share their tax breaks with workers and reinvest in the American economy. https://t.co/N9FAZ4k2IH — PolitiTweet.org

The Fed’s decision to cut interest rates today undercuts the Trump-Republican argument that their tax cut for the biggest corporations and wealthiest few would spur business investment and be a ‘middle-class miracle.’ — PolitiTweet.org

If China is unwilling to make significant reforms, President @realDonaldTrump must be prepared to walk away. The way to achieve a successful trade agreement is by keeping the pressure on: on Huawei, on China’s economic model, on human rights. https://t.co/G0iJLjitrH — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

A big roadblock to progress on climate change has been the influence of dark money from Big Oil & Gas And the @USChamber & @ShopFloorNAM have been their accomplices, mouthpieces We need to expose dark money and hold these groups accountable #ChamberOfCarbon #ManufacturedFacts — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

After exploding the deficit by cutting taxes for the wealthiest few—what‘s GOP's next move? Demanding the President sneak ANOTHER tax cut for the wealthiest few & corporations Tax code needs to be more progressive for working people—not more tax giveaways to the wealthiest few — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Republicans claim to support pre-existing condition protections, but every GOP healthcare plan has failed to do so. We’re forcing a Senate vote to undo the Trump admin’s junk insurance rule that would erode pre-existing condition protections. What will Senate Republicans do? https://t.co/nBIuxieZw0 — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

It's a moral obligation to fight climate change every chance we get. I worked with @SenatorCarper & @EPWDems to ensure the highway bill that passed the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐝 $𝟏𝟎 𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐬. https://t.co/TWZz7uKJpO — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

President @realDonaldTrump’s Department of Justice just admitted to a federal court they are continuing to separate families. Nearly 1000 in the last year alone. That is horrifying. Democrats have legislation to ban this, and it’s time to pass it. Now. https://t.co/CwYAfVczZM — PolitiTweet.org

I’m happy to welcome Ulster County’s newest resident, Theo, into the world. Congrats to @UlsterExec Pat Ryan and his family! https://t.co/GVATuzNI1y https://t.co/MeVPntfflH — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

From protecting our elections from foreign interference to protecting Americans living with pre-existing conditions Bill after bill after bill after bill Republican leaders have turned the Senate into a legislative graveyard for priorities of the American people. https://t.co/KWmGGC0EIU — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

“Drain the swamp” was little more than a campaign slogan for President @realDonaldTrump. Because if he cared really about draining the swamp, he’d be adamant about overturning Citizens United. That’s why today we're unveiling a constitutional amendment to overturn it. https://t.co/NlrV9410hp — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

I just went to the Senate floor with @SenatorDurbin & @SenatorMenendez to demand the Senate take action on temporary protected status for Venezuelans in the U.S. Because the situation in Venezuela is too dire and dangerous for Venezuelans to return home But @SenMikeLee objected https://t.co/qg8uFmRNaw — PolitiTweet.org

Why is President @realDonaldTrump more critical of Baltimore than he is of Putin and Moscow? It’s time for him to stop working to divide Americans, and start working to protect democracy and human rights in America and around the world. https://t.co/HWJ0ZnvxsJ — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

We want to secure our elections. There’s nothing partisan about that. This is about national security and our democracy. So long as @SenateMajLdr Mitch McConnell prevents election security legislation from reaching the floor, everyone is right to say he's blocking it. https://t.co/j2kreLY8x4 — PolitiTweet.org

I’m saddened by the tragic passing of Brother Ed. I’m praying for @SienaCollege and for everyone who knew and loved him. — PolitiTweet.org

It has been a long struggle for our 9/11 first responders. But because of the courage of the many who joined the cause, the memory of people like James Zadroga, Ray Pfeifer, Luis Alvarez, and so many others will live on in this law. https://t.co/nmoXZEiIZk — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

I am concerned about the possibility that @realDonaldTrump and his administration will sell out on China. The way to achieve a successful trade agreement is by keeping the pressure on: on Huawei, on human rights, on China’s foreign policy. https://t.co/IRAEIfct33 — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

The Director of National Intelligence is supposed to be the one of the least partisan members of the president’s cabinet. It would be a grave mistake for the Senate to elevate this partisan warrior, Rep. Ratcliffe, to that position. https://t.co/BABnniGi0A — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

My heart is filled with sadness & anger after reports of deadly shootings at festivals on opposite coastlines, one in my hometown of Brooklyn and one across the country in California But still, @SenateMajLdr McConnell refuses to even allow a debate on commonsense gun safety laws https://t.co/lAEEjMHxX1 — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

.@SenateMajLdr Mitch McConnell gave a speech earlier today on the Senate floor to express his frustration at being accused of blocking election security legislation. Here’s an easy way to stop being accused of blocking election security: Stop blocking it. https://t.co/jLrE2xDujn — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, nothing can get in the way of our first responders getting the help they are due and they very much need with the bill to permanently reauthorize the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund becoming law today. — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

Protections for Americans with pre-existing conditions are already law. A law you voted against AND have voted to repeal. Believe what they do. Not what they say. — PolitiTweet.org

Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer

It’s been two years in the Senate since we blocked @realDonaldTrump from repealing our health care law & ending protections for Americans with pre-existing conditions. 👎 But they just keep trying to take away those protections anyway. Believe what they do. Not what they say. https://t.co/M2C5qykkrp — PolitiTweet.org
