No American should go hungry or struggle to afford healthy food. @POTUS’ commitment today at the White House Conference is a big step forward in eradicating hunger in the U.S. Proud of the MDers attending to speak on the work they do to keep our communities fed. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Earlier today I had a good discussion with Pakistan’s Foreign Minister, @BBhuttoZardari, about how our countries can work together to address pressing regional challenges & how the U.S. can continue to assist efforts to help those devastated by recent severe floods in Pakistan. https://t.co/zsLZ8WTzT4 — PolitiTweet.org

Enforcing limits on women's freedom & choice has long been a favored form of control of tyrants & extremists on the right. Mahsa Amini's death at hands of Iranian regime has triggered a deep pent-up anger that force can't erase. All people deserve freedom, dignity & respect. https://t.co/ymTeScqEw6 — PolitiTweet.org

Americans are sick & tired of booking an airline ticket only to find out they’ll have to pay a bunch of hidden fees & charges. This new rule from the Biden Administration will add much-needed transparency for consumers & accountability for airlines. https://t.co/pjYvjdl6Hi — PolitiTweet.org

Whew! Glad this dress rehearsal to prevent an asteroid from smashing into Mother Earth went according to plan. Thanks to the scientists at @JHUAPL & @NASA for everything you did to make this mission a success! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Here in Maryland, we’re taking steps to save humanity from the possible future catastrophe of an asteroid crashing into Earth. Tonight, I’m heading to @JHUAPL to watch its #DARTMission. Let’s hope it’s a big success! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

The extremism of Republicans’ bans on reproductive health care knows no bounds – just look at the 2 near-total bans that were enacted in AZ & WV. We must codify Roe V Wade to protect a woman’s right to choose no matter their zip code. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

From hiking the Appalachian Trail to enjoying the shores of Assateague Island, my family & I love to spend time in our parks. Today, on #NationalPublicLandsDay, I’m grateful for these treasures in our state & I’ll do everything I can to protect these public open spaces. https://t.co/tbNuHwXgny — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Oil & gas companies have made nearly $3B/day from the burning of fossil fuels. It’s time they help pay the clean-up bill.   With the Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act I released with my Senate Dem colleagues that's exactly what they will have to do. https://t.co/cagHoryEWG — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This disgraceful GOP wish list will strip away reproductive rights in all 50 states & play political games with Medicare & Social Security which millions of hardworking Americans depend on. We cannot let this become reality. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Far-right Republicans are stopping at nothing to push their extreme bans on reproductive health care – even if it means ignoring doctors & putting women’s lives at risk. We cannot allow these politicians to interfere with the health care decisions of American women. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

When push comes to shove, @SenWhitehouse, Republicans would rather reap the benefits of dark money than do anything to stop it. Even if it means letting big special interest groups destroy our democracy. #DISCLOSE — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Every child deserves a secure, loving family. For 30+ yrs, Janice & her team at @AdoptTogether have done an extraordinary job making that possible for children in MD. I was honored to nominate them as a 2022 @CCAInstitute Angels in Adoption nominee. https://t.co/xqSbnnAM22 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

I applaud this action. We stand with the Iranian people and all those protesting the abominable actions of the Iranian regime’s “Morality Police.”  State-sanctioned violence against non-violent protestors should be denounced wherever it takes place. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Agree. This is a welcome statement from @yairlapid. Vital to develop a political track to move the parties toward this goal and, in the meantime, all parties should refrain from actions that make this goal more difficult to achieve. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Make no mistake: the billions of dollars gushing into our elections pose a grave threat to our democracy. This cannot continue. But earlier today, Republicans chose to side with special interests over the American people. #DISCLOSE https://t.co/zTGrANNoG8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

#OTD in 1961 President John F. Kennedy signed the Peace Corps Act into law. For the past 60+ years, @PeaceCorps volunteers have done extraordinary work around the world that reflects our values. They are true people-to-people ambassadors for America. https://t.co/4Ipmfn6PVl — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

If you don’t look closely you might miss that this is the same Mitch McConnell who just filibustered to kill #DISCLOSE. Maybe his flip-flop has to do with the gush of $ that flowed to Republican campaigns after Citizens United & not wanting you to know who is bankrolling them? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Republicans just gave the go-ahead for big special interest groups to keep dumping billions in dark $ into our elections. #DISCLOSE was our chance to end this secret $ and ensure transparency. While Republicans blocked it today, our fight continues. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

It’s common-sense: people should be able to immediately access the $$ that’s in their bank account.     With our Payments Modernization Act that we just reintroduced with @SenWarren & @RepChuyGarcia, banks will have to offer consumers access to funds in real time. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

MD is home to 4 of our nation’s most-esteemed HBCUs. Their critical programs, research, entrepreneurship & activism make our country stronger. It's imperative that they receive the support they need to continue their work & I'll keep fighting to make sure that happens. #HBCUWeek https://t.co/QEB4HalJkm — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Whatever challenge David took on–from MD state senate to serving as Bladensburg‘s mayor & a small business champion–he did it in service to MDers. His passing is a hard loss for MD & the Prince George’s County community. His loved ones are in my prayers. https://t.co/UapxABRegs — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Was great to meet with the @FarmBureauMD today! MD's farmers keep our communities fed & are a major economic driver in our state. I'm committed to partnering with them to expand access to high-speed internet, support their conservation efforts and work on the next Farm Bill. https://t.co/KezvMEuVDU — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

A big step forward in addressing the climate crisis! On the heels of the Inflation Reduction Act, our ratification of the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol is another critical step in reducing planet choking greenhouse gas pollution while creating thousands of jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Whatever excuse Republicans try to come up with for why they’re working to block the DISCLOSE Act – the American people aren’t buying it. Hiding $ spent by foreign entities and big donors to win elections is hardly a winning argument. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

It’s time to choose: either we keep letting big $ special interest groups flood our elections with dark $ OR we pass our DISCLOSE Act to prevent them from hijacking our democracy. I'm speaking LIVE on the Senate floor now about why I'll be voting YES. https://t.co/jjS27V9yMU — PolitiTweet.org

Millions of formerly incarcerated Americans are held back from obtaining jobs, housing & opportunity. Glad to see @HouseJudiciary pass @RepDavidTrone bill that I have introduced in the Senate to remove barriers for these Americans toward successful reentry. Now Senate must act! — PolitiTweet.org
