Against all odds, the Washington Nationals are #WorldSeries champions for the first time in franchise history! A well deserved victory for the @Nationals. Congratulations to the entire Nationals organization. #STAYINTHEFIGHT — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

To coerce Ukraine to interfere in our elections on his behalf, Trump withheld critical aid. Trump knew what he was doing was illegal, so he failed to notify Congress in violation of the Impoundment Control Act. More from my exchange with the @GAO: https://t.co/Ejeg1pSLwA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Last night's overwhelming vote in the House of Representatives—405 to 11—to recognize the genocide of 1.5 million Armenians by the Ottoman Empire is long overdue. It's time for the Senate to do the same. Acknowledging history is the first step towards not repeating it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

The House passed a sanctions bill 403 to 16, sending a signal that Congress will not stand by while Turkey and its proxies slaughter our Syrian Kurdish allies and fuel the revival of ISIS. Senate must stop dithering and act—the lives of our allies and our security are at risk. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Following National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, I’m urging @CMSGov to do more to prevent, screen, and treat children in Baltimore and the rest of the country who've been affected by lead exposure. We must take additional steps to address this serious public health issue. https://t.co/N0FINVgBSl — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Pay attention to how Republicans vote on our resolution to block Trump's junk plan rule, which allows health plans to discriminate against people with pre-existing conditions. Will they be co-conspirators in Trump's campaign to undermine our health care system for political gain? https://t.co/l8vNyfLB39 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Every senator should stand up against the vicious character assassination that is being launched against patriotic Americans who are testifying under oath and penalty of perjury in the House. We can disagree on a whole lot of things, but this shouldn't be one of them. https://t.co/w86eA1Cbo6 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

We have the chance to compensate federal contract workers for the wages they lost during the Trump Shutdown. We helped civil servants, let's do the same for contract workers—like janitors and cafeteria workers. The House did its job, let's do ours. https://t.co/KfJgRXOHhF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Last week, we met with the @EPA to discuss efforts to protect the Bay. Despite Trump’s attempt to cut funding, I secured a funding increase in a bill that just passed the Appropriations Committee. We must keep that boost in the final bill. Save the Bay! https://t.co/lhnoCC8gVY — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

After Kushner Companies refused to respond to inquiries from the Baltimore area federal delegation, I’m glad to see @BrianFrosh is now holding them accountable in court. https://t.co/vHifWsLtjk — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This speaks volumes about President Trump’s world view. It's crystal clear who he trusts, who he feels comfortable with, and who he listens to. And they are not leaders who have America's best interests at heart! https://t.co/PETZPl3mRj — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Trump should have stopped after reading his statement. He went on to spew nonsense that 1000s of Turks had been killed in the “safe zone” in NE Syria. Truth is that he is enabling Turkey’s proxies—many who share al-Baghdadi’s ideology—to ethnically cleanse our Kurdish allies. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

It is good news for America and for the world that al-Baghdadi, the founder and leader of ISIS, has been eliminated. I salute the American military for executing this important mission. Also thanks to our Syrian Kurdish allies who supplied key information. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

As this aid worker's frontline report attests, Turkey is attacking Kurds outside the designated “zone”–a gross violation of the agreement, which the State Dept told me would trigger U.S. sanctions. Time to act! Inaction enables Erdogan’s ethnic cleansing. https://t.co/EyY1ZjTZRT — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

More than a goodbye, today’s service at the New Psalmist Baptist Church was a celebration of the life of the great Elijah Cummings. As Deaconess Margaret Ann Howie told us at the ceremony this morning, “We will carry him as we speak truth to power." Elijah, we love you. https://t.co/V24VC6QAmF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Thank you, @MayaRockeymoore, for your moving eulogy in remembrance of a great man, father, and your husband, Elijah Cummings, at the service today in Baltimore. https://t.co/Zs1H0RN3wX — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Thumbs up to the court for holding Secretary DeVos accountable for denying debt relief to thousands of college students, including hundreds of Marylanders, who were defrauded by Corinthian Colleges. Now Congress must act to address the student loan crisis. https://t.co/J0rtCPMBqh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Congressman Elijah Cummings became the first African American lawmaker to lay in honor in the Statuary Hall today, his unwavering spirit radiating through the halls of the Capitol. As I often used to think when I would watch him speak, thank God for the gift of Elijah Cummings. https://t.co/zdwiSNYuAo — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

I met with @tmcf_hbcu and they asked me why, when there’s so much bipartisan consensus, the Senate can’t pass the FUTURE Act. There was no good answer. It’s disgraceful that this bill is in the Senate legislative graveyard after funding expired for HBCUs. https://t.co/PpASM6IMKy — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Mike has dedicated his life to serving Marylanders and set the gold standard for leadership in the State Senate. I was proud to serve under him, and to this day appreciate his mentorship. His guiding hand will be missed, but I'm confident @SenBillFerg will serve our state well. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

I saw my dear friend Mike Miller last night at the Morgan State tribute to Elijah Cummings. Mike insisted that the doctors let him out of the hospital to eulogize Elijah. That’s Mike. Always there for friends; always there for Maryland. https://t.co/wQPbnFbHyA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

My final question to Trump's special envoy for Syria: Is it your view that the Putin-Erdogan deal serves American national security interests? His answer? "I am personally skeptical.” My full questioning: https://t.co/iPXc6ygPJ0 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Trump’s celebration of the Putin-Erdogan deal represents his total surrender of American leadership and the treacherous betrayal of our Syrian Kurdish allies. It is also a recipe for the resurgence of ISIS. Congress must fill the leadership void. https://t.co/hm9PkTn7hr — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

There has been little discussion of how 5G can contribute to fighting climate change. ↓ @GeoffreyStarks and I layout how networks can: ✓ save Americans money ✓ protect our national security ✓ maintain our energy independence ✓ cut carbon emissions https://t.co/NfRM6tsHuo — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Russia got caught red-handed using social media platforms to manipulate the 2020 elections—just like 2016. The DETER Act can prevent this. It’s a bill that would let Putin know that he will pay a huge penalty if he gets caught again. Why won’t McConnell hold a vote? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

As predicted, Trump has ceded our position of influence to Putin and Erdogan, who are now conspiring to cripple our loyal allies, the Syrian Kurds. Trump has lost any claim to American leadership. Congress must adopt the bipartisan sanctions bill now. https://t.co/v1eKY5H7im — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

New confirmation of Mulvaney’s confession from someone testifying under oath. https://t.co/mkfVJyrXur — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

We heard from the top political official of the Syrian Democratic Council that Turkish-backed jihadi forces are seeking to wipe out the Syrian Kurds and that hundreds of ISIS fighters are escaping. McConnell must stop stalling and allow a vote on the bipartisan sanctions bill. — PolitiTweet.org
