I'm with you @POTUS! We need to⬇️costs for Americans & that’s what the #BuildBackBetterAct does. Here’s a contrast: in 2017 Rs added $2T to our debt w/ tax breaks to big corps #BBB provides tax cuts to middle-income families & is paid for by closing tax breaks for big corps. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Another bright idea from Congressional Republicans: as the omicron variant gains momentum they want to block Biden’s vaccine mandates by shutting down the government, including public health agencies. Seriously, this is what we are up against. https://t.co/PVpPZqogmI — PolitiTweet.org

Today the right to reproductive freedom is once again under attack as SCOTUS hears Mississippi’s case to overturn #RoeVWade, jeopardizing the health care of millions across the US. Now is the moment to stand up & speak out to protect a woman’s right to choose. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Climate deniers have held us back for too long, but nothing's holding back our rapidly changing climate. Failure to take real action now will result in enormous harm to communities here & worldwide. The #BBBAct includes vital provisions to address this head-on. We must pass it! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This is exactly why we passed the #AmericanRescuePlan – to invest in communities & to build them back better. Closing the digital divide is key to this effort. We’re on a mission to ensure every MD child, household, & business has internet access, & we won’t stop until it’s done. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

#OTD in 1975 IDEA became law, making big strides to ensure a quality education for those w/ disabilities. But Congress has fallen far short of its promised 40% cost share. Today it’s only at 16%. I’m fighting to pass our IDEA Full Funding Act to fix this. https://t.co/6X0Mj6YufV — PolitiTweet.org

Big news for Baltimore: work on the Howard St. Tunnel starts today! This critical infrastructure project will allow us to do more business out of the Port of Baltimore, expanding its capacity, & with it economic opportunity & jobs. We secured $125 M in fed $ to make this happen. https://t.co/M9IPeKI1a7 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Small businesses form the economic heartbeat of our communities. The federal emergency relief measures helped most survive COVID-19, but each of us must do our part by shopping at our local small businesses & eating at local restaurants. #SmallBusinessSaturday — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Important news from @NASA! The successful launch of the DART mission today is a key step forward in protecting Mother Earth from cosmic threats like asteroids. Proud to support Maryland’s @JHUAPL’s leadership & critical work on this mission.  https://t.co/dHSCZRQnR5 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This is a clear sign the #AmericanRescuePlan is working to get us back on our feet. And the new infra bill will further strengthen us. Now the Senate must pass the #BuildBackBetterAct to reduce the cost squeeze on families & secure cheaper, cleaner homegrown energy for the future — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Great to see @POTUS nominate Shalanda Young to serve as Budget Director at OMB. Her leadership is just what we need to implement a federal budget that prioritizes the American people. As a @SenateBudget member, I look forward to supporting her historic nomination. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Joined @secretarypete today to announce $22M for transit to serve MDers along the E-W corridor in Baltimore. 17k households on route don’t own cars. This will boost quality of life & get folks where they're going more quickly & safely. One of many new infra projects coming to MD! https://t.co/s5s6syNTd1 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Excited to welcome @SecretaryPete back to Baltimore to talk about the federal $ for infrastructure headed straight to MD! Today we’re highlighting the new infrastructure bill & a $22M investment going to Baltimore East-West Corridor transit. Watch live: https://t.co/g8ZM7XNDuT — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This is an important move by the Biden Admin. As COVID-19 continues to impact our supply chains & OPEC members manipulate the markets, many of us urged this action, and I’m glad to see @POTUS use the strategic petroleum reserve to bring down prices for American consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

The #BuildBackBetterAct will help lower the costs of healthcare, senior care, RX drugs, & childcare while giving working families w/ kids a big tax cut. And it's PAID FOR w/a surcharge on those making over $10M/yr & closing big corp tax breaks. Don't let the GOP spin fool you! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

It's been 304 days since Joe Biden became President: ✅COVID on the retreat ✅3 million children lifted out of poverty ✅our infrastructure will be modernized ✅help on the way for hardworking American families  ✅dignity restored to WH Job well done! Happy Birthday @POTUS! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

This is good news. USPS Director Louis DeJoy has wreaked havoc on our Postal Service and willfully undermined the critical mail services so many Americans rely on. Today's move by @POTUS will help block further damage. Removing DeJoy must come next. https://t.co/Uu4gCWqi7N — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

The Sudanese military’s lethal attack on peaceful protestors underscores the urgency of this moment. The world has seen the strength and resilience of the Sudanese people before, and we must demand a return to a coalition-led transition to democracy and full civilian rule. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

BREAKING: The House just took one BIG step forward in making our #BuildBackBetterAct law. Now it’s time for the Senate to get this historic bill over the finish line to deliver expanded job opportunities and daily cost savings straight to MDers & the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

If you tuned in to today’s Banking & Housing Committee hearing, at times you might’ve felt you were back in the days of the McCarthy hearings. Omarova is exceptionally qualified, and I condemn the smear campaign launched against her by some GOP senators & special interests. https://t.co/58ecksTFHF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

At the helm of the @NAACP_LDF, @Sifill_LDF has been a tenacious champion for a more just society in the tradition of fellow Baltimorean, Thurgood Marshall. While she's passing the torch, I know she’ll never stop working to ensure our country lives up to its full promise for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Glorification of violence and hate-mongering should have no place in our political discourse. It must be called out and denounced. For anyone that cares about this country, silence is not an option in the face of Rep. Gosar's disgraceful actions. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

The filibuster is blocking the ability of the majority to protect the most fundamental principle of our electoral democracy which is based on "1 person, 1 vote." Access to the ballot box is under direct attack & we must act decisively to protect it. Period. 📸: Shuran Huang https://t.co/gPxOjbOzP6 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Today, I’m hosting a discussion w/ Del. Lorig Charkoudian, Vinny DeMarco (@HealthyMaryland), & Marceline White (@mdconsumers) to discuss steps we’re taking to reduce MDers’ medical debt & ensure access to affordable health care. Watch LIVE on my Facebook, & drop your Qs here! https://t.co/yIEQULqanm — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Every child deserves a quality education. But for 45 years, Congress has failed to fund its promised share of support for special education. By fixing this – and finally fully funding IDEA – my bill with @RepHuffman will help meet our commitments to all our students. https://t.co/btcYowNT8N — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

For almost 30 yrs Maggie McIntosh has delivered for the people of her beloved Baltimore & MD w/ passion & purpose. MD is much stronger b/c of her work. I am lucky to have served w/ her & to call her a friend. Looking forward to all she’ll still do in her final year in Annapolis! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

It’s official! To borrow a G-rated version of a statement from former VP Biden: this is a big darn deal! This new law brings over $7 billion in investments straight to MD & will improve our infrastructure, fix our roads & bridges, increase transit, create jobs, and so much more. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Headed to the White House to join @POTUS for the signing of the new infrastructure modernization bill. This bill is a huge win for our state, our economy, & our workers. I was proud to fight for Maryland priorities within it and to vote to send it to the President’s desk! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

Every American should have confidence that they are drinking clean, safe water — at home, at work, in school, in child care centers…everywhere. That’s why we must modernize our water lines and pipes, and ensure that none contain lead or other toxins. https://t.co/tR6fivC7Gy — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen

For yrs, the Highway to Nowhere has divided W. Baltimore & serves as a stark example of the long history of inequity in the siting of infrastructure. To create opportunity & build stronger cities, we must right this wrong. Our Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill helps do just that. https://t.co/v2d814JFLI — PolitiTweet.org
