As demonstrators across the country protest racial injustice, we can’t allow law enforcement to use invasive facial recognition technology to stifle free speech and invade our privacy. I’m demanding answers from Clearview AI. https://t.co/WZvBLIJJEH — PolitiTweet.org

The global addiction to fossil fuels is a threat to everyone, everywhere. Preventable disasters like the massive oil spill in Russia will continue to happen until we bury the fossil fuel industry with the power of wind and solar. #GreenNewDeal https://t.co/1hmoSIaQPh — PolitiTweet.org

All Paul Whelan and his family want from Russia are justice and protection of his health & safety. A wrongful conviction and harsh sentence after a secret trial would be a grave miscarriage of justice. Thank you to Amb. Sullivan for supporting #PaulWhelan. https://t.co/y8kmnHTW6V — PolitiTweet.org

Black unemployment is up. As unemployment numbers make a fractional move back to “normal”, it’s clear that returning to normal is unacceptable. The system will continue to fail until we take aggressive, restorative action to eliminate systemic racism. — PolitiTweet.org

For 50 years, the Supreme Court has expanded the use of qualified immunity, shielding officers from accountability for police brutality. We cannot wait for SCOTUS. @SenBooker, @SenKamalaHarris, and I will keep fighting to abolish qualified immunity for law enforcement officers. — PolitiTweet.org

"So, to white people who care about maintaining a habitable planet, I need you to become actively anti-racist. I need you to understand that our racial inequality crisis is intertwined with our climate crisis. If we don’t work on both, we will succeed at neither." - @ayanaeliza — PolitiTweet.org

Federal agencies that require officers to ID themselves: Bureau of Reclamation. Federal agencies that don’t require officers to ID: every other law enforcement agency. The USBR shouldn’t have stricter ID requirements than the officers occupying DC. All agents should be ID’d. — PolitiTweet.org

AT&T reportedly has a policy of not counting use of HBO Max, which AT&T owns, against AT&T customers’ data caps. The Trump FCC may have gutted #NetNeutrality, but AT&T still has a responsibility to avoid policies that harm consumers and stifle competition. https://t.co/QKJ5Hjkktr — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Trump reportedly wants to conduct a demonstration nuclear test. That could spark a global return to testing and expose a new generation to the horrors of radiation sickness. We must block Trump’s nuclear test before it’s too late. I’m introducing legislation to do exactly that. https://t.co/oUaOymT0Tt — PolitiTweet.org

Americans are demanding accountability for law enforcement officers. Yet the Trump administration responds by making them anonymous. This is dangerous. Law enforcement officers without identification carry a license to abuse their power. Donald Trump must provide us with answers. — PolitiTweet.org

A welcome victory for clean air in the middle of a crisis attacking our lungs. Thank you to the @FRRACS_MA activists and other other community organizers for your tireless efforts. We will not give up the fight! #NoWeymouthCompressor — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

That is why @SenBooker, @SenKamalaHarris, and I are introducing a resolution calling for the immediate elimination of qualified immunity for law enforcement officers. We cannot allow this doctrine to perpetuate violence against communities of color any longer. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We must dismantle the oppressive tools of abusers in law enforcement like qualified immunity. Police officers are murdering black and brown Americans in our streets without any accountability. We must act NOW. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Law enforcement relies on qualified immunity to shield officers from accountability for instances of police brutality and excessive force. In our culture of systemic racism, it is one of the foremost tools of oppression. Qualified immunity must be immediately eliminated. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Want to know why we need #NetNeutrality? Here’s why. We need to pass my Save the Internet Act. And I will be demanding answers from AT&T on this practice. https://t.co/Kres5yWNka — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve seen Gen. Milley and Sec. Esper fall in line in POTUS’s crackdown of protesters. It bears repeating that the President has the SOLE AUTHORITY to launch a nuclear strike. We must pass my and @RepTedLieu’s bill (S.200) to put Congress between Trump and the nuclear button. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Donald Trump is making D.C. look like a war zone. Not to restore order, but as a show of force to try to crush the will of the people who are fighting for racial justice. I stand in solidarity with the protestors in D.C. and across the country who will not be intimidated. — PolitiTweet.org

Grateful that @BostonFire was able to bravely respond to this 7-alarm fire. Thank you for your heroism. My thoughts are with the injured firefighters and the families who have been displaced by this fire. https://t.co/aUDsUmtwt2 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

“Limiting debt relief for defrauded student loan borrowers” is one way to put “maximizing profits for criminals.” The Trump administration should be ashamed that it is once again siding with sham colleges instead of victims of fraud. https://t.co/Zneu9DGK7M — PolitiTweet.org

The BRAIN TRAIN Act will create new jobs, combat climate change, and mitigate traffic congestion. When the coronavirus pandemic is over, and whether you are traveling to Boston, Springfield, Hartford, or NYC, the BRAIN TRAIN will help you get there. https://t.co/P5hs320Hl1 — PolitiTweet.org

The administration needs to seriously clean up their act to show they can competently distribute life-saving therapeutics or vaccines. Lives depend on it. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I called for transparency in distributing remdesivir nearly three weeks ago when I heard how haphazard the first distribution of the drug was. Now, it's even more clear that the Trump admin took serious missteps that delayed getting it to patients. https://t.co/FbjKVleBDc — PolitiTweet.org
