Back in April, @SenMikeLee and I urged the Trump Administration not to move forward with this misguided proposal, which ran counter to our efforts to reform our broken criminal justice system. Because you joined us and others in speaking out, we were heard.https://t.co/DyygJESiZD — PolitiTweet.org

The Congressional Research Service—a nonpartisan, highly respected agency—released a report that totally rebuts Trump’s claim that his tax law is “rocket fuel” for our economy. It didn’t boost the wages of workers or pay for itself. But it did give billions to billionaires. — PolitiTweet.org

Amanda Eller from St. Mary’s County was rescued from a Maui forest last week after being stranded for 17 days. Amanda, we are so glad you're back home with your family and wish you a speedy recovery! https://t.co/yYVq1Wqs9a — PolitiTweet.org

Mueller's comments today were an effort to stop the misinformation. If he was confident that the President didn’t commit a crime, he would have said so. He didn’t. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump Administration’s assault on the science behind climate change reminds me of when the Inquisition put Galileo on trial. It’s clear they can’t argue against the facts, which is why they want to stop compiling evidence and attack all who want to act.https://t.co/yzdcYimHKK — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks one year since Ellicott City was hit with its second devastating flood. I will continue to work on the federal level to ensure the community has the resources it needs and work to implement a strategy to prevent future floods from having the same destructive impact. https://t.co/b5g53xuhXr — PolitiTweet.org

This #MemorialDay, we gather to remember the men and women who have given what President Lincoln described as "the last full measure of devotion" for our country and recommit ourselves to our veterans and those who currently serve our nation. https://t.co/0JI4rTZdDN — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Watching Kim Jong Un play Trump like a fiddle is scary and dangerous for our country. The Senate must pass the bipartisan #BRINKAct, which tightens sanctions against the regime, to let Kim know that the Senate is not equally fooled and deluded. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Voters have a right to know who is spending millions of dollars to influence our elections. The For the People Act has been sitting in the Senate for over 76 days. We were elected to help the American people, not sit in a legislative graveyard for months on end. https://t.co/jlmVKXZRM4 — PolitiTweet.org

This is such an inspiring story about two twin sisters who graduated as co-valedictorians at Bowie High School. Good luck at the University of Maryland, Alexis and Mikaila! Can’t wait to see what you both do next. https://t.co/cTArwZByZC — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

After Attorney General misled the American people and proved that he was a puppet of the President, it makes zero sense to allow him to unilaterally declassify the CIA’s documents—a move which would allow Barr to impose his own will over the intelligence community. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

The Trump Administration’s decision to bypass Congress and sell arms to Saudi Arabia is a misapplication of this provision and an abuse of power. Will work to close this loophole in the appropriations process and use every available tool to prevent Trump from taking this action. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

A healthy Metro system is vital to the success of Maryland commuters and our federal workforce. That’s why @SenatorCardin, @MarkWarner, @TimKaine and I are unveiling legislation to reauthorize federal funding while also enacting critical safety reforms. https://t.co/C6XdhDqjy9 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

I spoke with the @CFR_org about the role Congress plays in the conduct of foreign policy and national security during the Trump presidency. While we’ve had some success, Trump and McConnell have blocked many bipartisan initiatives. A key example? Election security. https://t.co/HHcBXuZGSf — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

For years, I’ve been pushing Secretary Mnuchin to move forward with putting Harriet Tubman on the $20, but he refused to make a commitment. His further delay may not be a surprise, but it is no less shameful. Now seems like a good time to re-up this thread with @RepCummings. — PolitiTweet.org

It has been 65 years since the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in #BrownvBoard, but we have not achieved the goal of equal education for all. Outside of the Supreme Court today, I stood with activists to demand that Congress fulfill its promise by passing the #KeepOurPACTAct. https://t.co/kmChCKw99Y — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of confirming anti-choice judges that fuel bad state laws, the Senate should vote on House-passed bills to protect those with pre-existing conditions and strengthen our democracy. Tell McConnell that the Senate shouldn’t be a legislative graveyard. https://t.co/KdfpiL7p5v — PolitiTweet.org

It's gross negligence if FinCEN has not been in touch with the whistleblower who exposed Deutsche Bank’s failure to report suspicious activities on Trump's account. Congress must also talk to her. I'm pushing for a Banking Committee investigation to get to the bottom of this. https://t.co/4yJbTeHHpm — PolitiTweet.org

Verso was sure to take care of its former CEO—they must do the same for 675 workers now being laid off at the Luke paper mill. I teamed up with my colleagues in Maryland and West Virginia to push for a meeting with their current CEO. We will keep fighting for the community. https://t.co/t459tEapVb — PolitiTweet.org

Such a powerful photo of 3-year-old Lovie Hope Duncan at the Harriet Tubman mural in Cambridge. Can’t wait to visit and see Maryland artist, Michael Rosato’s artwork. Now, let’s make sure we also honor this great American hero by putting Tubman’s image on the $20 bill. https://t.co/FP1OjreZAH — PolitiTweet.org

I stand with the Marylanders who are organizing and taking action to stop the assault on women’s reproductive rights. We cannot afford to go back to a time when women risked their lives because they were unable to access safe, legal abortions. #StoptheBans https://t.co/Yfc7d11KOM — PolitiTweet.org

In 2017, Deutsche Bank told me that they had procedures to insulate them from conflicts of interest with the Trump family. If the @nytimes reporting is true—then Deutsche Bank misled me in their letter. I will be demanding answers at tomorrow's Banking Committee hearing. https://t.co/79qTHg8IWw — PolitiTweet.org

My son Alex and I are enjoying a great Maryland tradition at the 144th @PreaknessStakes today! We’re both rooting for Alwaysmining to be the first Maryland-bred house to win this race since 1983. #Preakness144 https://t.co/dUqbJS4aYE — PolitiTweet.org

I often sought the advice of my friend, Dr. Rivlin, on budget issues and was at a Budget Committee hearing when I heard the news of her passing. As the first CBO Director and the first woman to serve as OMB Director—she was a trailblazer. Her brilliance and warmth will be missed. https://t.co/Cuv4iQjkTA — PolitiTweet.org
