I agree with Senator Grassley. The President's firing of another Inspector General adds to the mounting case for the need of a Select Committee to provide oversight. — PolitiTweet.org

As our nation continues to battle this pandemic, we must acknowledge that the economic impact will disproportionately affect Black communities. @TheBlackCaucus has put together this guide with resources to help address the financial burden. https://t.co/MOm9pJqzj2 — PolitiTweet.org

This is nothing but a brazen attempt to suppress the vote, and the American people cannot stand for it. Congress must make sure all states allow all eligible voters to vote by mail in November. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Moving the election was an unprecedented decision for @GovEvers to make, but it was the right one. I am appalled that the U.S. and Wisconsin Supreme Courts refused to allow any modification in the interests of public health and democracy alike. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Our democracy only works when people can show up. When it is not safe for people to cast their votes, they must not be forced to choose between their lives and their civic duty. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Wisconsin Republicans have used the worst public health crisis of our lifetime as an opportunity to deprive Wisconsin residents of their right to vote. SCOTUS gave a green light to this voter suppression. — PolitiTweet.org

Not only is lack of internet a barrier to learning, so are slow speeds. When families have to compete for bandwidth, everyone suffers. Americans not only need access to internet, they need affordable access to high speeds. https://t.co/diquNZKuUr — PolitiTweet.org

As we recognize #WorldHealthDay today amidst a global pandemic, we must recommit ourselves to providing accessible & affordable health care to all. That includes creating more community health centers in rural areas & increasing internet access so people have telehealth options. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Join me, @NAACP and @BET at 8 PM ET tomorrow for a virtual town hall on how COVID-19 is affecting the African American community and what future legislation will do to address the effects of this pandemic. You can participate live via phone or online at https://t.co/IaNeM1Crkk. https://t.co/gjaWQO8p0A — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

This pandemic is illustrating exactly why we must expand access to affordable internet. Without the internet, our students are unable to participate in virtual learning & will struggle when schools re-open. We must close the digital divide. https://t.co/Ogm7rFJ2KT — PolitiTweet.org

This is why we need a Select Committee to ensure that there is robust oversight of how taxpayer money is spent and to protect against fraud, abuse, and profiteering. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

The objective of this Inspector General is to ensure this recovery is transparent, fair, and equitable. The appointment of a current White House lawyer to this role calls that objective into question. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

This appointment is especially troubling given the President’s signing statement indicating that he plans to resist the oversight procedures in the CARES Act, which were overwhelmingly agreed to on a bipartisan basis to prevent corporate misconduct and abuse. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

The President’s decision to name one of his own staff lawyers to serve as the independent Inspector General overseeing the disbursement of hundreds of billions of federal dollars in coronavirus crisis emergency aid smacks of the proverbial ‘fox guarding the henhouse.’ — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Last year, the House reauthorized #VAWA in order to protect victims and survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. It’s still sitting on Mitch McConnell’s desk. It’s time for the Senate to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. — PolitiTweet.org

52 years ago I got the news of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination. I went home, numb, sat in my house, turned on the radio and just listened. I sat there, the rest of the night. The sun came up with me sitting there. https://t.co/kkej4on6SX — PolitiTweet.org
