Obergefell v. Hodges made marriage equality the law of the land; however, we still have a long way to go to ensure full equality for #LGBTQ+ individuals. That’s why we can’t wait any longer to pass the #EqualityAct. https://t.co/8ShgND0zXV — PolitiTweet.org

Protecting voting rights is not a partisan issue. I’m glad to see @TheJusticeDept's efforts to defend the sacred right to vote of all Georgians despite race, zip code or party. — PolitiTweet.org

COVID-19 shut down nearly all large-scale blood drives at schools, work places, and hospitals that helped sustain blood supplies, and we still haven’t recovered. As things start to reopen, if you’re able to give blood, please do. You can save a life. https://t.co/FnmlmgPDW7 — PolitiTweet.org

The government would later go on to use data from their cases to develop safety standards for workers, medical personnel, and scientists, including those who worked on the Manhattan Project. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

When some of them sued, they were among the first to successfully hold an employer responsible for the safety of its workers. The Radium Girls’ struggle marked an inflection point in the labor movement and the fight to protect workers’ safety. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

As young women, they worked in WWI-era factories—one of which was right here in Orange, NJ—painting watch dials using glow-in-the-dark, radium-infused paint. The companies never warned them about the dangers of radium, and many later developed terrible and often fatal illnesses. — PolitiTweet.org

THREAD: If you've never heard of the Radium Girls—many of whom worked right here in New Jersey— please take a moment to read their incredible story, and see why I've introduced a resolution in the Senate to honor their struggle for justice. https://t.co/gEYgQ3dtMb — PolitiTweet.org

It’s embarrassing that protecting the right to vote—the very core of our democracy—couldn’t get 60 votes in the Senate. But that’s the reality Senate Republicans have given us. If they won't come to the table, we should consider a democracy exception to the filibuster. https://t.co/Q8DAOFlhvC — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

#WWOR has failed at every turn to deliver for NJ at a time when people are starved for local news. Our bill gives @FCC more tools to force stations to live up to their obligations, and hold them accountable to the communities they are licensed to serve. https://t.co/os3dTn5ne4 — PolitiTweet.org

This bill will help communities impacted by lead contamination replace their lead water infrastructure. https://t.co/d8f8oQvnpk — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

Towns and cities across NJ are sitting on some of the nation’s oldest water infrastructure, but for many, the cost of replacing lead pipes is simply too high. That's why today I introduced the Lead-Free America Bonds Act. https://t.co/GMalBBTKHh — PolitiTweet.org

Asking borrowers to resume $200-300/ month in student loan payments before many families are fully back on their feet would devastate our recovery. @POTUS must #CancelStudentDebt. In the meantime, he should extend the pause on payments until March 2022. https://t.co/xL5sqPDsKQ — PolitiTweet.org

49 years ago today, #TitleIX was signed into law. After four long years of Betsy DeVos, it’s such a relief to once again have a @POTUS and @USEdGov that are committed to protecting all Americans from gender discriminatiton. https://t.co/MOI4JnCqLK — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

The Restaurant Revitalization Fund was a lifeline to NJ's struggling restaurants, bars and diners. But we're still a long way from full recovery, so today I'm pushing for more relief for our mom and pop businesses. https://t.co/DFDO5G98cA — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s a rough list of ideals @SenateDems just tried to bring up for debate with the #ForThePeopleAct. You can see why it’s supported by: ✅ 67% of Americans ✅ 56% of Republicans ✅ 68% of Independents   Every single Republican Senator opposed it... https://t.co/F9cLvURsKL — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

How could such a staggering loss of life happen here in the most powerful nation on earth? How can we ensure that it never happens again? The families of #COVID19 victims deserve answers to these and so many more questions, and a non-partisan commission can help find them. https://t.co/x1BFyK3HGc — PolitiTweet.org
