We need to consider justice, safety, and the need for these facilities within a green energy economy everywhere, especially in environmental justice communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The EFSB ignored the process and substance concerns of hundreds of community members and advocates, in yet another example of the injustices that continue to plague these communities and a dereliction of our responsibility to correct these historic wrongs. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I am extremely disappointed to hear that the EFSB is moving forward with construction plans of the East Boston electric substation, which poses a threat to the safety and wellbeing of East Boston and Chelsea residents. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

There is no one better to lead the Department of the Interior than @DebHaalandNM. She knows that justice must be at the center of our environmental, natural resource, and Native policy and will be a historic leader in building a livable future for all children. #DebForInterior — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Weymouth compressor station is an environmental justice issue. The communities affected by the project are already subjected to high levels of pollution and new emissions will only make things worse. FERC should hear these concerns fully and fairly. https://t.co/6eZ4lvCekI — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden is bringing diplomacy back to Washington. All sides returning to full compliance with their commitments under the Iran Nuclear Deal, as I have called for, will verifiably prevent an Iranian nuclear weapon and reduce the threat of a catastrophic war. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Pleased to see initial commitments by @POTUS and @G7 allies to combat this global pandemic cooperatively. We need to be bolder together. COVID-19 will continue to disproportionately impact the world’s poor and plague all without a robust global strategy. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I strongly condemn this violence against peaceful protesters in Burma. The military must restore communications and access to information, release political prisoners, and return rule to the elected, civilian government. https://t.co/O8GSKtjmHu — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

If you read the quote tweets to our livestream, you will find conservatives decrying racial justice and addressing COVID-19 disparities. They're wrong and it's a shameful demonstration of ignorance and bigotry. Never mind them. We need racial justice in vaccine distribution. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Racial justice must be our number one priority as we distribute the COVID-19 vaccine. Join me live with @SenWarren, @RepPressley, @NikaElugardo, @macurry01, and Rev. Culpepper as we discuss the need for greater equity and accessibility in vaccinations. https://t.co/2phfS58LUa — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I am confident that with @Gina_McCarthy and @JohnKerry at the helm of US climate policy, that will be our priority. But it will take a mass movement of people, young and old and in every state, to get elected leaders to embrace the Green New Deal and our call for climate justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The United States has rejoined the Paris Climate Agreement and will reassert itself as a global climate leader. That is excellent news, but it is not enough. We must go further than Paris and put justice at the very top of our priorities in responding to the climate crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Vaccine distribution is a racial justice issue. Join me tomorrow 2/20 as I host @senwarren, @reppressley, @nikaelugardo, @macurry01, and Rev. Culpepper at noon to discuss the need for equitable vaccine distribution. https://t.co/AVDkQpdlwx — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to the health care workers at @GLFHC who have protected and cared for their community throughout this pandemic and today are helping to administer life-saving vaccines. Please know that I will always be at your service. https://t.co/pkAryt4KcP — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We must put communities like Lawrence at the front of the line for bold climate action, dismantle decades of environmental racism, and give decision making power to advocates and activists like @GndwkLawrence, an organization which I am always proud to stand with, snow or shine. https://t.co/tefxGhPd9a — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Environmental justice is racial justice. I'm in Lawrence today to meet with the environmental justice leaders of @GndwkLawrence, hear about the climate resiliency work they're doing, listen to their needs, and walk the Spicket River Greenway. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Please join me in telling @APIenergy that climate change is only an "unforseen factor" if you spend millions of dollars every year denying it exists. https://t.co/Mu4UR4ufK3 — PolitiTweet.org

The nurses at St. Vincent Hospital in Worcester put their patients first, but the Tenet health care corporation only cares about its profits. That’s why I joined the @MassNurses picket today and rallied against the corporate greed standing in the way of safe working conditions. https://t.co/b6fOWDzlN5 — PolitiTweet.org

Today in Springfield I stood with activists and elected leaders to say loudly and clearly that we don't need a polluting biomass plant in this community, the asthma capital of the United States. We won't stop fighting until the proposed plant is cancelled. https://t.co/zpqYM1AFb9 — PolitiTweet.org

I am walking the picket line with @MassNurses at St. Vincent Hospital in Worcester and demanding that the Tenet Healthcare Corporation give them the better staffing and working conditions which they deserve. https://t.co/mKC1yPGl3l — PolitiTweet.org

The Cape and Islands are home to nearly 250,000 people, but only accessible by two bridges spanning the Cape Cod Canal. This funding will ensure that evacuation routes like the bridges can handle a mass of individuals fleeing disaster and help critical aid get to those in need. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Again and again, damage to critical transportation arteries have blocked first responders from reaching areas of need in the aftermath of extreme weather events and natural disasters, which are only growing in severity as a result of climate change. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Just reintroduced with @SenWarren and @USRepKeating: the ESCAPE Act which dedicates $1 billion annually to enhance the strength and capacity of America’s primary evacuation routes. https://t.co/1Ib0lY0Bsb — PolitiTweet.org
