FINALLY: NTSB is looking at bicycle safety. But this report is 47 years overdue. We need stronger action to address this national safety crisis. My Complete Streets legislation will ensure that bicyclists, pedestrians, and all people can safely get around. https://t.co/vFXSzBIDnb — PolitiTweet.org

11,258 scientists are sounding the alarm: we are in a climate emergency. And not just climate scientists. Biologists, ecologists, & more. The crisis touches every aspect of our lives. So must the solution. That’s why we need a #GreenNewDeal to fundamentally transform our society. — PolitiTweet.org

There is no one better to be at the tip of the spear in the fight against climate change than Gina McCarthy. Gina is one of the most skilled and tenacious climate warriors I’ve had the honor of working with. Congratulations to @GinaEPA and @NRDC on this new partnership. — PolitiTweet.org

Cartels and drug labs are pumping fentanyl into America in the form of counterfeit prescription pills and it is worsening the opioid epidemic. We can help stop the flow of this deadly synthetic opioid by passing my bill to mandate 100% fentanyl screening for all int'l mail+cargo. — PolitiTweet.org

By withdrawing from the Paris agreement, President Trump is not only going against the will of the majority of the American people who support action, he also is turning his back on future generations who will have to survive the most catastrophic impacts of climate change. — PolitiTweet.org

Pilgrim should not get an exemption while dangerous nuclear spent fuel is still cooling in open pools and threatening local residents. I plan to reintroduce legislation that would correct the NRC’s wrong decision and move nuclear fuel into safer dry cask storage. — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve traded pencils & tablets for pixels & tablets, but protections for students are stuck in the 20th century. Schools shouldn't be labs for surveillance tech. I’ll be introducing the Protecting Student Privacy Act to give students control of their info. https://t.co/wXcwQ5AyUh — PolitiTweet.org

Today, 4 current White House officials are refusing to testify and cooperate with the House impeachment investigation. Must be Monday. https://t.co/KH8WhU7w5x — PolitiTweet.org

Community advocates have been saying all along that the Weymouth compressor station isn’t going to help Massachusetts consumers. Now, National Grid & Eversource are admitting the same thing. It is unneeded, unwanted, and unwelcome, and should be rejected. https://t.co/JqzxRrCCmV — PolitiTweet.org

We can transform our economy and fight climate change with a #GreenNewDeal but we must hear everyone’s voice. That’s why it is centered on an inclusive, democratic process. Thank you @RepMcGovern and everyone who came out today for our GND town hall in Worcester. https://t.co/NU6Q8gdEkB — PolitiTweet.org

On the International Day to End Impunity for Crimes Against Journalists, I thank courageous journalists like Maria Ressa and her colleagues who fight to #KeepTruthAlive in the Philippines, and those imprisoned in Turkey and beyond for simply doing their jobs — PolitiTweet.org

First, Donald Trump puts Ukraine and politics before country. Now he’s put the NRA and politics before American lives. This president has no humanity. His word is worth nothing. Which is how he values the lives lost in these senseless tragedies. https://t.co/HwXorJ5lpn — PolitiTweet.org

UN Ambassador Kelly Craft has more than $63 million invested in oil, gas, and coal assets. Given these extensive ties, @SenJeffMerkley, @SenWhitehouse, and I are calling on Ambassador Craft to recuse herself from any actions to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris Climate Agreement. https://t.co/WbFr6YxSKw — PolitiTweet.org

The Keystone pipeline system transports some of the dirtiest oil on the planet. It threatens aquifers and vulnerable species and contravenes the rights of indigenous people. I’m demanding answers about this latest spill and pipeline owner TC Energy’s apparent negligence. https://t.co/nJMWRFAVth — PolitiTweet.org

The Keystone pipeline system pumps the dirtiest source of oil on the planet. TC Energy’s unacceptable negligence is causing millions of dollars in damage and threatening lands vital for key drinking water resources, vulnerable species, and the rights of indigenous people. — PolitiTweet.org

For all its talk of competition w/ China, the Trump admin is not showing up when it counts. Trump is again letting Beijing outrank the US delegation to a major Asia summit. America should be playing a more prominent role at key discussions w/ our Indo-Pacific allies & partners. — PolitiTweet.org

In its most recent effort to vilify and stigmatize immigrants, the Trump administration wants to forcibly collect DNA from migrants, jeopardizing the civil rights and privacy of hundreds of thousands of people.

For too long, America has failed to honor the victims of the Armenian Genocide by denying to acknowledge the full truth. Great news that the House just voted to recognize the Armenian Genocide. Now the Senate needs to follow suit & pass @SenatorMenendez’s accompanying resolution. — PolitiTweet.org
