Every student has a right to an education. But if we return to remote learning this fall, millions of kids will be left out because they don’t have internet access. Congress needs to act and pass my legislation to expand the E-Rate program by $4 billion to close the #HomeworkGap. — PolitiTweet.org

Abortion is health care. Today, the Supreme Court reaffirmed that where a person lives shouldn’t determine their ability to receive access to abortion. I will continue to fight to protect reproductive freedom and this essential constitutional right. — PolitiTweet.org

Rushing to reopen immigration courts as new daily COVID-19 cases around the country are at an all-time high would be the height of recklessness. That’s why I introduced legislation to halt all deportations and suspend in-person immigration court proceedings during this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

It doesn’t pass the sniff test that the President wasn’t briefed on such an explosive piece of intelligence, but if he wasn’t what does that say? A Commander in Chief uninterested in the safety of our troops or an Intel community that doesn’t trust him. Incompetence either way. — PolitiTweet.org

Did Donald Trump know Russia was putting a bounty on American lives in Afghanistan when he said “we have this great friendship?” Did he know when he suggested Russia should attend the G7? Someone in the administration knew and they did nothing. https://t.co/7FF1PDBzTB — PolitiTweet.org

William Perry Pendley has: -Denied the urgent need to act on climate -Pushed Islamophobic views -Attacked undocumented immigrants And Trump just nominated him to lead the Bureau of Land Management. This is wildly irresponsible. The Senate must #RejectPendley. #StopBernhardt — PolitiTweet.org

Affordability and accessibility must define our public transit systems to ensure they truly spur economic growth and community development. I’m proud to introduce the #FreedomToMove Act with @RepPressley, and @WuTrain and look forward to fighting together for this legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I’m proud to announce the #Taiwan Fellowship Act with @SenRubioPress, @RepTedYoho, and @RepBera. Our bipartisan/bicameral bill pushes back on China’s work to isolate the island nation diplomatically by placing ten U.S. fellows every year to live, study, and work in Taiwan. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m proud to have served in the MA legislature with Elaine Noble, the first openly gay person elected to a state legislature in the U.S. A true trailblazer, Elaine fought back at the harassment & discrimination she faced to be a progressive leader at the State House. #PrideMonth https://t.co/bW5xdgZTMg — PolitiTweet.org

The No Tear Gas or Projectiles Act would prohibit federal, state, and local law enforcement officers’ use of tear gas and rubber bullets by banning federal officers’ use of riot control agents and kinetic impact projectiles. https://t.co/UqUAWmQTHn — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Our streets are not meant to be battlefields, and law enforcement shouldn’t be using weapons of war against protestors and other Americans. That's why @SenSanders and I are introducing legislation to ban law enforcement's use of tear gas and rubber bullets. — PolitiTweet.org

Those responsible for these breakdowns in leadership, which put veterans’ and staff lives at risk, must be held accountable, and we must do more to prevent such failures going forward. — PolitiTweet.org

The independent report on the Holyoke Soldiers Home confirms a disturbing absence of accountability and responsibility by managers at the Soldier’s Home as well as the government officials charged with ensuring the welfare of these veterans. https://t.co/dCFzMIFtOC — PolitiTweet.org
