As we work to dismantle the systematic racism that permeates every part of our society, we can’t ignore the harms that these technologies present. The only responsible thing to do is to prohibit law enforcement from using these surveillance mechanisms. https://t.co/JVETbWOTAl — PolitiTweet.org

Facial recognition technology doesn’t just pose a grave threat to our privacy, it physically endangers Black Americans and other minority populations. I'm introducing legislation with @SenJeffMerkley, @RepJayapal, and @RepPressley to stop government use of biometric technology. — PolitiTweet.org

Without congressional action, 400,000 TPS residents are at risk of being deported. I’m proud to fight alongside the TPS recipients and allies who went to Washington today to demand permanent residency and protection from the Trump admin’s cruel and hateful immigration agenda. https://t.co/YDW8chBgRd — PolitiTweet.org

.@FlyingWithSara is absolutely right. The lack of federal face mask requirements endangers the health of @afa_cwa members, all crews, and the flying public. I’m working to require masks on all flights and establish strong rules to protect the health of everyone in the air. — PolitiTweet.org

Rather than coming up with new ways to destroy each other with nuclear weapons, we must work diplomatically to freeze further deployments of nuclear weapons globally. @RepMcGovern and I announced the HALT Act to put verifiable controls on the most powerful weapon ever created. — PolitiTweet.org

This is exactly why Congress must pass my + @SenBlumenthal’s legislation to create an air travel task force immediately. We need nationwide rules - informed by public health science - to protect the flying public at every airport and on every airline. https://t.co/YLe1RuKmwE — PolitiTweet.org

If our president gave Chinese officials any kind of go-ahead for mass detention of Uyghurs or for abuses in #HongKong, we need to know. My Senate colleagues and I are following up on prior oversight to ask a key national security official for answers. https://t.co/OkXZ5T3vO5 — PolitiTweet.org

Income and wealth inequality are out of control in this country. And now, 40M+ are out of work, while the rich have never been richer. It’s an outrage. But what the 1% don’t have is the solidarity of struggle. And there’s nothing more powerful than that. #PoorPeoplesCampaign — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We’re all better off when we help instead of hate. That’s why I introduced the GRACE Act, to return our refugee admissions to our historical average. This country has a proud history of welcoming refugees. We must stand by those values and oppose Trump’s disgusting xenophobia. — PolitiTweet.org

This pandemic has made millions of people in America painfully aware of how fragile the status quo can be. While this crisis has forced many of us into our homes, this #WorldRefugeeDay, let us remember those who have been forced out of their homes by other crises. — PolitiTweet.org

It is not peaceful protestors who are encouraging escalation and inciting violence, it is those in positions of authority - from those wielding tear gas and rubber bullets, all the way up to Trump. They are scared of the strength of the people united. They should be. — PolitiTweet.org

I am so happy to hear this news, @EnesKanter. In light of your family’s courage, it would be entirely fitting for this to be the first step to broader change in Turkey that sees every falsely accused prisoner released, every freedom restored, every injustice reversed. — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenTinaSmith, @SenBooker, @SenKamalaHarris, & I will introduce the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act to make #Juneteenth a federal holiday. Just one step to begin to right the wrongs of the past to ensure justice in the future. Today we commemorate. Tomorrow, we fight. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Proud to work w/ @SenTinaSmith, @SenBooker, and @SenKamalaHarris to soon introduce a bill to make Juneteenth a federal holiday. June 19, 1865 this nation announced the abolition of slavery. Let’s acknowledge our history and recommit to the struggle for justice. More info to come. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m thrilled and relieved for our Dreamers that the Supreme Court upheld DACA. They belong here, at home. Today, we celebrate a victory for justice. But the fight will go on, and we won’t stop until these young people are permanently protected. #HomeIsHere — PolitiTweet.org
