Vladimir Putin has launched an unprovoked and immoral invasion of Ukraine. No one should fall for Putin’s lies. This is a reckless war of choice, and the choice was made by Putin and Putin only. We stand with the people of Ukraine and our NATO allies and partners. — PolitiTweet.org

It was an honor to stand with Nurse Coretta Killikelly and so many people fighting diabetes in Albany. It’s preposterous and dangerous that a 40-day supply of insulin can cost over $600. This is a crisis, and @SenateDems will move forward on a bill to fix it. — PolitiTweet.org

This Senate has confirmed 46 federal judges under President Biden. 3/4 have been women. 2/3 have been people of color. And they’ve all been highly qualified. Public defenders. Civil rights and election lawyers. People with public-service experience. We’re going to keep going. — PolitiTweet.org
