In 2017, we had a Republican President who denied the reality of climate change, a Congress that refused to act, and I spoke to COP13 as a virtual avatar. Now, I'm heading to COP27 in person, with a President ready to tackle the climate crisis and a freshly passed climate bill. https://t.co/5JdnpPP9Zh — PolitiTweet.org

It's time for the federal government to stand up and protect trans healthcare. Testosterone care isn't a crime. It's essential. Let's make it easier, not harder, for trans people to access T. https://t.co/UqW0loRhTd — PolitiTweet.org

I love free public transit and I love the @MVRTA. They are a leader in the fight for transit justice and their expanded fare-free system and good-paying jobs are a model for how we can make public transit accessible, sustainable, and equitable for workers and riders. — PolitiTweet.org

We should all be working to keep the plant safe, not using it as a nuclear cudgel. I support the UN's call for Russian and Ukrainian forces to commit not to engage in any military activity around the nuclear plant. https://t.co/RbqXPyH0bX — PolitiTweet.org

The Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant is a nuclear threat we ignore at our peril. I am deeply concerned about the allegation in yesterday's @IAEA report that the plant’s power supply was deliberately targeted https://t.co/Wke1p8pqC3 — PolitiTweet.org

Social Security is turning 79 years old and President Biden is right. It’s ridiculous that Republicans want to gut a program that keeps millions of seniors afloat. — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S.-South Korea alliance is based on shared values and interests—from nuclear disarmament to the fight against climate change. Through my meetings with senior government officials like Representative Tae Yong-ho, it was evident that we are prepared to meet these challenges. https://t.co/IJkeObqr84 — PolitiTweet.org

I can’t wait for the House to pass the Inflation Reduction Act and bring a greener, cleaner economy to people in Massachusetts and all across the country. https://t.co/Ex15w6lSmX — PolitiTweet.org

Only when we end the NRA's stranglehold on Republicans and act bravely in defense of our children and communities will we deliver a future free from the gun violence. I am inspired by activists and organizers who got us here, and as you continue this fight, I am with you. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Tonight's passage of the first bipartisan gun safety agreement in decades is the start of negotiations, not the end. We need more than just this moment. Tomorrow, we get back to work on a gun safety agenda that takes weapons of war off our streets and out of schools. — PolitiTweet.org

Gig workers are organizing for the protections they deserve and I will be by their side every step of the way. Thank you @GigWorkersRising for making your voices heard outside of Lyft's headquarters today. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you @therealopallee for your courage, your leadership, and your indomitable spirit. Because of you, Juneteenth is recognized as a federal holiday and people everywhere are recommitting themselves to the fight for racial justice. https://t.co/DIxxVZwCOv — PolitiTweet.org

We are celebrating with the community in East Boston the $2 million in funding secured for Piers Park III. Projects like this, which build climate resiliency and center the needs of environmental justice communities, are long overdue. https://t.co/COf9fMQtiW — PolitiTweet.org

The United States has a moral responsibility to open our doors to Afghan refugees and ensure they have all the support they need. I am in Worcester to meet with and welcome people who fled Afghanistan and thank all those dedicated to helping them. https://t.co/Who74jJno6 — PolitiTweet.org

I am proud to have voted to confirm Alvaro Bedoya to serve as Commissioner to the @FTC. With a full slate of commissioners, the FTC must now use its full authority to protect consumers, particularly those in marginalized communities who experience disproportionate harm online. — PolitiTweet.org

Too often, travelers struggle to get a refund after a flight cancellation or significant delay. That is why I led my colleagues in calling on DOT to strengthen consumer protections and make the refund process more transparent and efficient. https://t.co/VC1OXo325d — PolitiTweet.org

.@UMassLowell is a pinnacle of our state's flagship public university system.

The privacy threats are chilling and the potential harms disproportionately fall on individuals of color. Today’s announcement is a welcome one, but what we really need is for Congress to pass a law that halts this type of invasive practice across the government. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm pleased that the IRS will be transitioning away from its use of the facial recognition tool https://t.co/9JlhePzlJo. Biometric information like facial rec data is highly sensitive, and I have introduced legislation to put a moratorium on government use of these technologies. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I support President Biden in his effort to pass a Build Back Better package that can get 50 votes. The climate and clean energy provisions have been largely worked through and financed. Let’s start there. https://t.co/Xeu0YLz1NN — PolitiTweet.org

TECRA would ensure that existing sanctions under the Global Magnitsky program also cover corruption that results in climate-damaging projects as well as human rights abuses of environment defenders and climate-displaced persons. https://t.co/udguSM2Nj4 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We must use every tool we possess to hold companies and individuals responsible for climate destruction. We're urging State and Treasury to use their sanctioning authorities to penalize those responsible for contributing to the worst effects of climate change. https://t.co/UTTF3Y5gfv — PolitiTweet.org

In an emergency like a climate-fueled extreme weather event, radio is critical to keeping the public safe and informed. WBZ's state-of-the-art facility in Hull is what emergency preparedness looks like. Thank you WBZ, FEMA, and all of the dedicated people who made today possible. https://t.co/QvxNxU1oci — PolitiTweet.org
