With this move, the President is destroying the long & productive working relationship on arms sales between Congress & the Executive. The possible consequences of this decision will threaten the U.S. defense industry ability to export arms in an expeditious & responsible manner. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

Rather than stand up against those who murdered #JamalKhashoggi and are working against U.S. interests, the Trump Administration decided to do an end run around the Congress and possibly the law to sell them weapons. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

I am disappointed, but not surprised, that the Trump Administration has failed once again to prioritize our long term national security interests or stand up for human rights, and instead is granting favors to authoritarian countries like Saudi Arabia. https://t.co/0mATY1teK4 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

BREAKING: The Trump Admin formally informed Congress that it is invoking an obscure provision of the Arms Export Control Act to eliminate the statutorily-required Congressional review of the sales of precision-guided munitions to Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and others. — PolitiTweet.org

Shareholders, not corporate execs, should be making the call about whether or not they want their 💰 spent on political activity. It’s time to get dark money out of politics and bring sunlight to corporate political spending with the #ShareholderProtectionAct. https://t.co/B8J673keds — PolitiTweet.org

The end is near for abusive robocalls that flood our phone lines. Happy that the #TRACEDAct has passed the Senate and we’re one step closer to fighting these unwanted calls harassing Americans everywhere. https://t.co/2upDg6UuCC — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

Finally! After calling on McConnell to let us vote on legislation to hang up on scammers swamping our phone lines, we just passed the #TRACEDAct—the most significant crackdown on illegal, unwanted #robocalls since “Do Not Call.” Time is now to stop the calls and the disruptions. https://t.co/tL7cmeGCGB — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

Shareholders deserve a say in how corporate 💰 is spent in politics. For too long, corporate execs and powerful special interests have funneled dark money into our democracy with no transparency. We’re going to fix it with the #ShareholderProtectionAct. https://t.co/qEFFZH2j5w — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

134M scam #robocalls were made in NJ in March using increasingly sophisticated technology. But we don’t have laws designed to catch these scam artists. Let’s fix this with the TRACED Act and give law enforcement a better shot at catching fraudsters flooding our phone lines. https://t.co/q3R3zgYFU5 — PolitiTweet.org

A fifth child died in the custody of the Trump Admin this week. This needs to stop—it’s heartbreaking and infuriating. I’m calling for an immediate investigation into CBP detention facilities on the Southern border. Read our full letter: https://t.co/yMnI0bEC7x — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll also be voting NO on Kenneth Bell’s nomination. His ideologies regarding abortion embolden the current attack on #womensrights. We must defend women and their right to make decisions about their own bodies. His views aren’t welcome in our courts. #ProtectOurCourts — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

One nominee, Stephen Clark, has extreme views regarding women’s health. Not only does he pose a threat to #RoevWade, but to other issues concerning women’s health—like contraceptive coverage. I’ll be voting NO on his nomination. #ProtectOurCourts — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

The cruel, anti-choice laws being pushed through Republican-controlled legislatures are frightening enough. But Trump’s judicial nominees with extreme views on abortion are the ones fueling this fire, and setting up a battle over #RoevWade. #ProtectOurCourts — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: Senate Foreign Relations passes my Ebola Eradication Act. The WH’s aid restrictions have inhibited our assistance to combat the #Ebola outbreak in the #DRC.

It would be downright cruel to deport our American #Dreamers to a foreign land. And it would be downright foolish to throw out the economic, social, and cultural benefits Dreamers contribute to our nation. #DreamAndPromiseNow — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

Today’s @HouseJudiciary markup of the #DreamAndPromiseAct is a step in the right direction. #Dreamers have built their lives in America—and they deserve to live free from fear and legal uncertainty. It’s time to give them a REAL path to citizenship. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

Let’s be clear. This isn’t about oversight. Infrastructure was never a priority for Trump. He had 2 years w/ a GOP majority that asked NO questions. He chose to spend that time exploding our deficit with trillion-dollar corporate tax cuts instead of investing in our future. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

1 in 4 women & 1 in 9 men experience domestic violence in their lifetimes. But clearly @senatemajldr is in no rush to reauthorize #VAWA. If he lets this bill die, McConnell & the GOP are failing women & domestic violence survivors across the country. Bring this to a vote. https://t.co/HeKVPU1LXZ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

Talked to @nickschifrin on @NewsHour after Admin officials briefed us on #Iran. My conclusion? I don’t think they have a real strategy to turn the maximum pressure campaign into a diplomatic opportunity that avoids war & constrains Iran’s nuclear capabilities. That’s concerning. https://t.co/prIFuv8uw1 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Menendez @SenatorMenendez

All the financial planning in the world can’t prepare a family for a sudden medical emergency—and the bills that come with it.
