Republicans are more interested in funding defense than the defenseless. We need to give American workers $2,000. — PolitiTweet.org

No vote, no new year's break for Senators. — PolitiTweet.org

We are able to afford spending nearly a trillion dollars on a defense budget but we can’t give hungry and suffering Americans $2,000? That is a moral failure. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

$600 is not enough. @SenSanders and I are demanding that the Senate not adjourn until we get a simple up-or-down vote on giving Americans $2,000. https://t.co/rmkTD5f4EA — PolitiTweet.org

Our courts should be protecting the civil rights of LGBTQ+ individuals, not excusing violent homophobia and transphobia. Good news D.C. will ban gay and trans panic defense, but it is still permitted in most states. We must extend this ban nationwide. https://t.co/1Cl5ExL3ld — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This is a key pledge from President-elect Biden. Trump never fully utilized the DPA despite my early pleas and countless people died as a result of his malfeasance. Let's utilize this powerful tool to ensure we manufacture the life-saving vaccines we need. https://t.co/39miYm1DFx — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump’s failure to sign the #COVID19 relief package means that he’s essentially stealing that $300 from each unemployed American. They won’t get that aid back. He’s stiffing people on his way out of office. Sign the bill. https://t.co/M2rZAHaOnu — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Instead of playing a violin, he’s playing golf. Millions of Americans will lose their unemployment benefits today. Stop playing games with people’s lives and sign this relief bill now. https://t.co/G6AJffcDCR — PolitiTweet.org

#MerryChristmas. Let us be good to one another. — PolitiTweet.org

Springfield deserves an updated air quality analysis for this dangerous biomass project. @SenWarren and I are calling for an immediate reassessment to account for the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, new public health data, and the impacts of the climate crisis. https://t.co/Gah5yptBEk — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This is disgusting. With these pardons, Donald Trump is cementing his legacy as the most corrupt president in U.S. history. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

By passing My PLANET Act in the House NDAA, to prohibit U.S. nuclear weapons testing, we struck the Cotton provision that would have given $10 million to fire off a nuclear test next year. It's a loss for fallout shelters but it's a win for our security. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Trump didn’t drain the swamp, he pardoned it. This is what corrupt losers do. https://t.co/C3kFhAPZ4f — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

A $2,000 check is one of the most direct and efficient mechanisms for delivering economic relief now to those barely holding on in this crisis - low-income families and gig and service workers. If you don’t get a $2k check, the only person to blame is @senatemajldr McConnell. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Let’s give Americans $2,000. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The era of Trump’s attacks on U.S. allies and silence to China’s norm-shattering behavior is almost over. President Biden can turn the page and reaffirm our commitment to our allies, democracy, and the rule of law - and ARIA gives him the tools to make good on that mission. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Congress fully-funded @SenCoryGardner and my Asia Reassurance Initiative Act (ARIA), directing resources to a region in the world home to 60% of the world’s population. Full-implementation of ARIA will ensure that the U.S. will remain a Pacific power for decades. — PolitiTweet.org

Passage of the Leonel Rondon Pipeline Safety Act pays honor and tribute to the life of Leonel Rondon and serves as a small justice for Merrimack Valley. It is a critical step in ensuring that we never allow a tragic disaster like this to happen again. https://t.co/339sW9bbpc — PolitiTweet.org

The Bourne and Sagamore Bridges are vital parts of Cape Cod's economy and way of life. Replacing both structures is the only viable long-term solution for the region. I'm proud to have secured a way to expedite their replacement so we can begin this work. https://t.co/LID65qjdJQ — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This January will mark the end of the Trump-McConnell era. With the Biden-Harris era set to begin, we must make comprehensive economic relief a Day One priority for the new administration. We must work with Pres. Biden to pass the largest, most just relief package in our history. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Expanding Pell Grants is not the kind of relief that cancellation of student debt would provide. A business tax credit is not the full paid sick time that workers deserve. Legislation that doesn't prevent shut-off of gas, electric, or water will lead to massive energy debt. — PolitiTweet.org
