Non-partisan CBO says 750,000 jobs will be lost if sequester hits. Not a 'scare tactic' - just reality. #StopTheSequester — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Spkr B., bills from last Congress cannot be taken up in this Congress. Leg. Process 101. Enough w/the posterior politics. #StopTheSequester — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

I have offered the Dem plan to #StopTheSequester 3x so far this Congress. GOP has offered nothing. T-3 days til sequester. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Tweaking how sequester cuts are implemented is like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. 750K jobs will be lost either way (per CBO). — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Just submitted (for 3rd time) Dem plan to #StopTheSequester. The American ppl want a balanced approach - they deserve a vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

4 days til sequester. Will GOP come to the table or will they continue fighting to protect tax loopholes? — PolitiTweet.org

If the sequester goes through, gun background checks may suffer - http://t.co/3vX0PSTet0 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

FACT: Republicans haven't offered a plan to replace the sequester in this Congress. @HouseDemocrats have. http://t.co/ROHfr1Yo3t — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Republicans want the sequester. Democrats want a solution. @SpeakerBoehner, keep the House in session so we can avert this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

As POTUS said in his #SOTU address, the time is now for Congress to move #forwardonclimate. http://t.co/pWUR6LzU — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Agree w/@RepJustinAmash - GOP should spend less time thinking up lame hashtags & more time coming up with solutions. http://t.co/e4ue4BAE — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Just intro'd Dem plan to replace sequester w/mix of cuts + revenues from Buffett Rule & by ending big oil/ag subsidies http://t.co/TrMjmi1e — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

If the automatic spending cuts hit on March 1, CBO est. 750K jobs will be lost this year. Americans deserve better - http://t.co/DTPnj9a0 — PolitiTweet.org

GOP must stop scapegoating federal employees. They've already contributed more than their fair share to reducing the deficit. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Yesterday, for the 4th time, the GOP refused to allow a vote on the Dem plan (http://t.co/H6rcBWm8) to avert the #SequesterCrisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Pres. Obama made one thing perfectly clear tonight: an economy is grown from the middle out, not from the top down. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Agree w/ POTUS re: need to invest in middle class. Goal of deficit reduction must be to grow econ, not European-style austerity. #SOTU — PolitiTweet.org
