I am confident that @LisaMonaco will approach her new role as Deputy Attorney General with the same courage, integrity, and fearlessness that she has brought to the table throughout her distinguished career. I am proud to support her nomination today. https://t.co/yEcHENmPF5 — PolitiTweet.org

I applaud President Biden’s decision to grant TPS to Venezuelans fleeing a humanitarian crisis and am encouraged to see the administration supporting those seeking refuge. This move will protect nearly 200,000 Venezuelans from deportation and allow them to thrive in the US. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm grateful that President Biden is reestablishing the Gender Policy Council in the White House, restoring protections against sex and gender discrimination and violence, and directing our government to prioritize women's equality at all levels. https://t.co/q7i1PbBG3V — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This International Women’s Day we celebrate the victories in the fight for gender equality and recognize the work ahead to achieve true equity. Let's move urgently to reinstate the Violence Against Women Act, pass the Equal Rights Amendment, and close the gender pay gap forever. https://t.co/MyvUAcmshH — PolitiTweet.org

We are not done fighting for a $15 minimum wage. And we need to make sure that the minimum wage keeps up with inflation so workers don't have to keep coming to Congress for the raise they are owed. https://t.co/X9WoWjLJ3j — PolitiTweet.org

Tar sands oil is one of the dirtiest forms of fossil fuel, but it is currently exempt from taxes used to fund the clean up of oil spills. @RepBlumenauer and I are introducing legislation to close this loophole and make sure every Big Oil company pays for their clean-up costs. https://t.co/MRuqGlK9jE — PolitiTweet.org

Under President Biden, America’s alliances are back. I’m pleased the U.S. and South Korea reached an agreement on cost sharing measures. @POTUS is building back a better foreign policy to advance our values and interests. https://t.co/VuneR8BopL — PolitiTweet.org

Tenet Healthcare needs to listen to and act on the concerns of St. Vincent nurses. I stand unequivocally with them in their fight for patient safety and fairness. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Yesterday the United States Senate passed the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan. We are finally telling the American people that their government is here to work for them and we won't stop until we pass a bold and intersectional recovery and jobs package. https://t.co/YpwAx9T8fu — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The American Rescue Plan will help millions of people survive this pandemic. Please join me live Sunday at 12PM EST for a livestreamed media availability on this bill and our path forward to a bold and intersectional jobs creation package. https://t.co/JhAIb37h20 — PolitiTweet.org

A $1400 check is a vital down payment to help families. But our direct cash assistance shouldn’t be limited to just this latest payment. We need recurring payments and to expand the number of Americans who are able to obtain this relief. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

My legislation for more than $7 billion in E-Rate funding is included in the rescue package. It provides the Wi-Fi hotspots and devices needed to help all students connect to classrooms from home, especially those in communities of color, low-income households, and rural areas. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Despite Republican opposition, Democrats delivered on our promise to the American people with the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan. This bill is a life raft for millions of people and will help prevent a disastrous wave of foreclosures, hunger, unemployment, and death. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Senate is on the verge of voting to put desperately needed cash directly into Americans’ pockets. They have waited far too long. Let’s get this across the finish line. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We are still up and fighting for a bold relief package that meets the scale of this crisis and will do whatever it takes to deliver for the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We need a whole-of-government response to the climate crisis. It's encouraging news that the SEC will be "integrating climate and [environment, social and governance] considerations into the agency’s broader regulatory framework" with this new task force. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We are not done fighting for a $15 minimum wage. American workers need and deserve a raise. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you @yanisatech, the @sunrisemvmt, and all of the advocates and activists who joined us last week to discuss the vision for a green and equitable transportation system. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

America cannot continue funding its addiction to fossil fuel infrastructure and instead must invest in public transit, electric vehicles, and the needs of bicyclists and pedestrians. That is how we build a clean, accessible, and equitable transportation future. https://t.co/bfrrJ3ifWJ — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

People of color have been hit the hardest by COVID, yet they are receiving a smaller share of vaccines than white people. This is the result of systemic racism. I'll say it again. Racial justice must be our number one priority as we distribute vaccines. https://t.co/E727qtLXPO — PolitiTweet.org

The greatest health and economic crisis of our lives and not a single Republican votes for COVID relief. Do we let them stand in the way of delivering for the American people? No. We voted to proceed with the bill and got them out of our way. — PolitiTweet.org

Amazon delivery drivers shouldn't be subjected to constant surveillance by AI-enabled cameras. My Senate colleagues and I demand answers from Jeff Bezos about reports that Amazon drivers' safety and privacy are being threatened by surveillance cameras installed in their trucks. https://t.co/XMDqi22Lky — PolitiTweet.org

There is no such thing as a winnable nuclear war. After 4 years of aggressive posturing, reckless policy, and failed leadership from Trump, @RepRoKhanna and I are calling on the Biden admin to reimagine our nuclear posture and reestablish global non-proliferation efforts. https://t.co/uayRykGeyn — PolitiTweet.org
