Workers, small businesses, and families may be getting an ounce of relief in this coronavirus package, but they need a ton more. This package must be only the beginning of our work to secure trillions more in aid for the American people. They deserve so much more than this. https://t.co/8Y43Y7wfdP — PolitiTweet.org

That includes the creation of an overarching entity that reports directly to the president and is endowed with all the powers necessary to coordinate a national climate strategy across all federal departments and agencies. https://t.co/s1fElAoi7l — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenBlumenthal @SenGillibrand @MartinHeinrich @SenJeffMerkley and I are recommending that President-elect Biden empower these climate officials by establishing and restoring offices focused on climate, environmental justice, and economic transition. https://t.co/zoEDM38j2g — PolitiTweet.org

We must continue to wear masks and social distance. The #Covid_19 vaccine is testament to what we can achieve together as a country when we listen to scientists and follow the advice of public health experts. — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenWarren and I are committed to ensuring vaccines are widely available at no cost and equitably administered to health care and essential workers, teachers, medically-underserved communities, and the entire country as soon as possible. — PolitiTweet.org

Today I got the first of two shots of the #COVID19 vaccine at the advice of the Office of the Attending physician for the continuity of government. We will save lives with this safe, effective vaccine. https://t.co/UlRNgT7iMV — PolitiTweet.org

The Gov't of Ethiopia and all parties involved in the fighting there have a moral and legal obligation to protect civilians and allow humanitarian assistance. The U.S. and international community must play a mediating role to bring the conflict to a close. https://t.co/1MTjLqfm1C — PolitiTweet.org

I'm concerned that Saudi Arabia is seeking a 20-year sentence for women's rights activist #LoujainAlHathloul. Instead of jailing those fighting for universal rights and against the guardianship system, the Kingdom should release its political prisoners. https://t.co/geFhyudIwn — PolitiTweet.org

There’s no one better to be at the tip of the spear in the fight against climate change than Gina McCarthy. If there is anyone who can enact a bold vision, coordinate a whole-of-government response, and hit the ground running, it’s Gina. — PolitiTweet.org

The Weymouth compressor station will always jeopardize the health of nearby residents and should be stopped. But there's no way it should begin operating before we even have all the answers about the recent emergency shutdown. #NOWeymouthCompressor https://t.co/Ra4MI0yXmc — PolitiTweet.org

As @RepDebHaaland's proud partner on the THRIVE Agenda, I know she will be a fearless defender of Indigenous rights and execute on a bold climate agenda when we confirm her as the first Native American Secretary of the Interior. — PolitiTweet.org

US families are expected to owe up to $32 billion in electric and natural gas bills by the end of 2020. That’s an unacceptable burden. We need energy debt relief, we need a moratorium on utility shut-offs and we need $10 billion for home energy assistance. https://t.co/cjxH6lSsHs — PolitiTweet.org

This neighborhood is one of the most diverse communities in Massachusetts. Moving forward with an unnecessary project that could threaten this community for decades is the definition of injustice. This community, this project, is what the fight for justice is all about. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The proposed electrical substation in East Boston is unsafe, unhealthy, and unnecessary. It’s time the EFSB lay the project to rest. We cannot ask families to risk their children’s safety for the sake of another dangerous energy project that isn’t needed. https://t.co/QlOTe4lH3H — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

$600 will help. But $1,200 in March and a $600 check 9 months later doesn’t match the scale of relief Americans need. I’ve been fighting since May for the direct cash assistance people deserve and I won’t stop until families get the payments necessary to save and change lives. — PolitiTweet.org
