Today we remember the 23 lives taken and many more impacted by the senseless tragedy in El Paso, Texas 2 years ago. Thoughts and prayers aren’t enough. We must protect our communities by taking serious, common sense action to #DisarmHate and #EndGunViolence. — PolitiTweet.org

My prayers are with the families and loved ones of D.C. Metro Police Officers Gunther Hashida and Kyle DeFreytag. They risked their lives to defend our democracy on our nation’s darkest day, and for that they will be remembered as heroes. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Today, Republicans at every level of government are leading the assault on the right to vote. We can’t wait on bipartisan support to protect it. @RepMondaire and I agree: we need a constitutional rights exception to the filibuster. https://t.co/20wJEFcgQ4 — PolitiTweet.org

Without affordable, high-speed internet, children can't attend their online learning classes, their parents can't apply for jobs online & families can't access telehealth.   We must bridge the digital divide & bring our rural communities into the 21st century. #RuralBroadbandDay — PolitiTweet.org

I'm disappointed that House and Senate Republicans refused to join with us to protect those facing eviction. We weren't asking for any additional money. Our state and local governments just need more time to get these critical funds in the hands of those who need them most. https://t.co/nQu18F8MKa — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Over 200,000 people in South Carolina are uninsured because our state refuses to expand Medicaid — in the middle of a deadly pandemic. @SecBecerra joined me to discuss how access to quality, affordable health care saves lives. #ExpandMedicaid https://t.co/bbiLd9pFva https://t.co/F4a8rewwvf — PolitiTweet.org

The Delta variant is sweeping through our community, and many lives will be lost unless we use the tools at hand to stop the spread. It’s simple: the vaccines are free. They’re effective. They save lives. Get vaccinated today. https://t.co/HuNb3op0To — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Millions of Americans do not have health care because their state refuses to expand Medicaid.   That's why, on the 56th anniversary of Medicaid and Medicare, I sat down with @SecBecerra to discuss how to make health care accessible and affordable for all. https://t.co/vsvA3Flbel — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

I am proud to announce that 9 of my requested community funding projects were passed by the House today as part of the appropriations package. That's over $40 million dollars for our community in SC-06. I hope the Senate follows our lead and passes this critical funding. https://t.co/Uf5wARZm5j — PolitiTweet.org

Happy #NationalInternDay! In Congress, interns are often the unsung heroes whose hard work supports staff, members, and keeps our offices running. I enjoyed chatting with a few of them during the Committee on House Administration Summer Intern Lecture Series today. https://t.co/5qtawivRe2 — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

I am pleased the House passed the FY2022 Legislative Branch appropriations bill today which will remove symbols of white supremacy and hate throughout the Capitol and ensure our Congressional workforce reflects our great, diverse nation. https://t.co/o9AfKzYPsV — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

It's troubling that only 50% of those eligible for the COVID-19 vaccines in South Carolina have received at least one dose. The vaccines are safe and effective. Do your part and get vaccinated to protect yourself, your loved ones, and your community. https://t.co/HkimcyA2IR — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Today we saw four patriots and public servants who have taken to heart their duty to protect this bastion of liberty. I hope my Republican colleagues take heed and do what is necessary to join in our pursuit of the truth. https://t.co/984jJVxN0B — PolitiTweet.org

I am deeply troubled by reports that many corporate landlords have been aggressively evicting thousands from their homes during the pandemic, particularly in minority communities. We must ensure the law is followed and rental assistance is available for those who need it. https://t.co/VIoU1LJbtL — PolitiTweet.org

I commend the CDC for updating their guidance on mask wearing to curb the highly infectious Delta variant. This underscores that we have the tools to protect Americans against COVID-19: safe & effective vaccines. Get vaccinated to reduce the threat & move our country forward. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Jan. 6th was a dark day for our democracy. To the brave & thoughtful officers who testified today before the @January6thCmte, thank you for sharing your stories & leading the crusade for the truth. They made it clear, there is no closure until we get to the root of what happened. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

Republicans are introducing discriminatory voting legislation across the country. To date, 48 states have enacted or proposed restrictive voting rights laws. It's time for everyone to turn their attention to preclearance and fight for it to be applied to all 50 states. https://t.co/RHm3l2Zq6q — PolitiTweet.org

We've lost another brilliant and courageous civil rights organizer. When faced with voter intimidation tactics, violence, and arrest in Mississippi in the 1960s, Bob Moses didn't back down. My prayers are with his family and loved ones. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks the 31st anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act — landmark legislation that expanded protections for those with disabilities. As we recognize #ADA31, we must reaffirm our commitment to treat everyone with the dignity and respect they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn

The history is very clear. Voter suppression tactics may disproportionately impact the Black community today, but it will impact others going forward. This is everyone's fight, and we ought to unite to protect the vote. https://t.co/Kj9AHdqY8o — PolitiTweet.org

Accessible, safe, and affordable child care is a critical part of infrastructure. Without proper child care, parents can't go back to work and children run the risk of missing valuable learning opportunities.   Our COVID-19 recovery must include a plan to #SolveChildCare. — PolitiTweet.org

It has been more than a decade since the last minimum wage increase in 2009. No one can live on $7.25 an hour in today’s economy.   We ought to build an economy that respects and rewards the dignity of work. #RaiseTheWage — PolitiTweet.org
