This should send a powerful message to those who think they are above the law. The mission of the @January6thCmte is to find the truth & prevent future attacks on our democracy. Donald Trump must be held to account. https://t.co/i1k2yWgLGO — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This is an important step – but much work remains to ensure Putin can no longer use food as a weapon of war and to resolve the current global hunger crisis. And above all, Putin must stop his unprovoked, brutal invasion of Ukraine. https://t.co/j6GlaeeatD — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Asim Ghafoor deserves due process, access to his lawyer, and the opportunity for bail. The U.S. must stand up for the rights of this American & all U.S. citizens detained abroad. https://t.co/Jd2pdk3luq — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Rioters overrunning & attacking Capitol Police. Secret Service agents assigned to the VP calling their loved ones to say goodbye. Tonight’s @January6thCmte hearing confirms Trump did nothing to stop this violence. Instead, he poured gasoline on the fire. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This isn’t just a heat wave – it’s another warning sign in the midst of a public health crisis. Inaction is not an option. We need to implement bold policies to combat the climate emergency now before more lives are put at risk. https://t.co/aguTO37FSt — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Not only is the GOP attacking reproductive health care … they’re refusing to invest in programs that ensure access to everything from cancer screenings to birth control. If they actually want to “protect” families they shouldn’t have blocked our Title X bill today. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

For years the NRA & GOP have said that protecting communities from gun violence starts by enforcing laws on the books. What they don’t say? They’ve hampered ATF’s ability to do that. But with the ATF Improvement & Modernization Act @RepDonBeyer & I just intro’d, we can fix that. https://t.co/nzN181PFi3 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

We’ve already seen how far Republicans are willing to go to keep Americans from accessing reproductive health care. We cannot let them go after contraceptives next. Now that the House has passed the Right to Contraception Act, we need to vote on it quickly in the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Wishing @POTUS a speedy recovery! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Russia isn’t just using tanks & missiles in their assault on Ukraine–they're also using food as a weapon of war, impacting hunger globally. We must work together to overcome their shameless tactics to deprive the world of grain & call out their actions heightening the food crisis https://t.co/DqHFbrUr7v — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

With rapid technological change, standing still means falling behind in the global economy. That’s why I’m working to pass the bill to boost innovation & sharpen America’s competitive edge as we reduce supply chain vulnerability & create more homegrown jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Maybe it's just me, but I think protecting basic Constitutional rights is exactly how Senators should be spending their time ... — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Senate cafeteria workers – many of whom are MDers – have been fighting for job security & a fair union contract. I stood with @UniteHere in April to stop layoffs then, & I stand with you today. Our frontline workers shouldn’t be jeopardized, & I’ll keep fighting for a solution. https://t.co/nasjY9e3Jl — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Putting more guns on our streets does NOT make us safer.   In Maryland & nationally, we’ve got to strengthen common-sense gun safety laws, not weaken them. More lives will be senselessly lost. https://t.co/hD29uFPexO — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This week MD lost a great public servant & friend with the passing of Vernon Simms. Whenever I had the chance to work with Vernon I was struck by his caring & kindness – ready to serve Marylanders wherever he was needed. Katherine & I are keeping his family in our prayers. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

When the Court overturned #RoevWade, Justice Thomas made it clear that the far-right could use this as a roadmap to go after marriage equality next. But w/ the Respect for Marriage Act that the House just passed, we can protect this fundamental right. The Senate must follow suit. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Campaigns should be competitions based on values & ideas. The tsunami of dark $$ enables outside billionaires & Super PACS to hijack the message. The DISCLOSE Act would expose these groups, their donors, & their agenda. It's a vital first step to empowering We the People! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Putin didn’t just fail to break the NATO alliance, it’s now even stronger. Today I voted alongside my Foreign Relations Committee colleagues to advance the addition of Sweden & Finland to NATO. We’re sending a message loud & clear that democracy & freedom will prevail. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Hundreds of people dying. Airport runways melting & train tracks buckling. Wildfires raging. The consequences of climate change aren’t far off in the future – they’re here & now. We must act. https://t.co/gucDZaLEdq — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

With SCOTUS’ overturning of Roe v Wade & far-right lawmakers dead set on passing anti-choice laws, we’ve got to expand access to #TitleX family planning. That’s why I joined @SenTinaSmith & @PattyMurray to introduce this bill. Let’s vote! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Millions of secret $ are being dumped into elections by SuperPACs funded by billionaires & big corps. It doesn't have to be that way. Senate Rules is holding a hearing tmrw on the DISCLOSE Act. We must end the filibuster & pass it to return power to the people – where it belongs! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

No surprise. Betsy DeVos led the Department of Education as if she had dismantled it. https://t.co/D6YK9r6Lj6 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This photo — with my friend John Lewis — marks the 1st of 3 trips I took with him to Alabama to focus on the struggle for civil & voting rights. It hangs in my office as a constant reminder of his example and of the unfinished work ahead. Let’s make #GoodTrouble. https://t.co/0olmR05thM — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

If you or someone you love is experiencing a mental health crisis: #ThereIsHelp. Starting today you can call or text 9-8-8 to speak with a trained crisis counselor 24/7. You are not alone. https://t.co/rwGVP4r3jr — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

The House has done its part to pass legislation that protects reproductive health care. But the anti-democratic filibuster all but guarantees this legislation won’t pass in the Senate. Enough is enough. We must abolish the filibuster so we can codify Roe v Wade NOW. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Lynching is a dark stain on MD’s history, but we should confront it honestly & not look away. Programs like these, made possible largely by the @MDLynchingProj, offer MD students an opportunity to learn from our past so we can create a more just future. https://t.co/yhQIL3CQBM — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Congratulations to the Baltimore Museum of Art workers who just voted to unionize with @AFSCME67. Strong unions give workers a seat at the table to bargain for the pay, benefits, & working conditions they deserve. https://t.co/viuR0Cf7vE — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Important recognition by @POTUS that the failure to date to have a full, transparent investigation and full accountability in the shooting death of American citizen and journalist, Shireen Abu Akleh, MUST be addressed. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

For Republicans & far-right states, banning reproductive care within their borders isn’t enough. Today Republicans blocked our bill to protect Americans’ right to travel across state lines for reproductive care & prevent this unconstitutional overreach. But this fight isn't over. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

.@morethanmySLE has turned his tragedy into a mission to ensure access to health care for millions of Americans, & preserving Social Security is a key part of that equation. As I told Peter, I’m 100% committed to protecting Social Security & fighting Republican plans to cut it. https://t.co/JkYPrRj3AM — PolitiTweet.org
