NEW: USCIS said that ICE will decide whether immigrants with serious medical conditions can stay in the US. ICE told my staff that it will force these immigrants to go through deportation proceedings before deciding their fate. This makes a barbaric policy even more dehumanizing. — PolitiTweet.org

Methane is 30x more potent of a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. As the Amazon burns and hurricanes bear down, Donald Trump hastens his push to climate catastrophe with this rollback. https://t.co/n3VCIHfqma — PolitiTweet.org

Welcome to America, @GretaThunberg. Looking forward to meeting you, and I can’t wait for you to meet our country’s youth climate movement. I know you’ll be as inspired by them as we are by you. — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump’s claim that his personal relationship with Kim Jong Un will denuclearize North Korea has more holes in it than his NK sanctions regime. Ballistic missile submarines are yet another area where NK continues to make rapid progress toward an advanced nuclear arsenal. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump has manufactured the humanitarian crisis at our border by dismantling our asylum system, and is now using this crisis to divert resources from asylum seekers in New England. 40,000 asylum cases will be frozen. @SenWarren, @RepPressley and I are demanding an explanation. — PolitiTweet.org

If BP thought it could have squeezed a nickel out of drilling in the Arctic Refuge, it wouldn’t have hesitated to annihilate it. Their exit is further evidence that there is absolutely no reason to turn the Refuge over to the oil and gas industry. All risk, no reward. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This is a new low for Trump. Maybe that is why they were too ashamed to announce this policy change publicly, and instead have been notifying families by handing them denials with instructions to leave the country. But we will not let the Trump admin hide from this inhumanity. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Trump administration is no longer considering medical deferred action requests for immigrants. This could be a de facto death sentence for patients. We all need to stand together against the deportation of sick, vulnerable children. https://t.co/aWBnZk4v7U — PolitiTweet.org

By no longer considering medical deferred action requests for immigrants, the Trump administration is now literally deporting kids with cancer. Proud to be with @MIRACoalition and other advocates to stand against the deportation of sick, vulnerable children. — PolitiTweet.org

Fighting climate change will require the deployment of our most powerful weapon. But it’s not nukes in the hands of one unaccountable individual. Our most powerful weapon is the people, empowered to take on corporate polluters, redesign our economy, and deliver justice for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Two years ago, Burma's military launched brutal attacks against the Rohingya—part of a genocide that the US govt must recognize. Two years is an eternity to those still displaced. We must seek accountability as we speak out against new crimes and exclusion https://t.co/QqxVnj449v — PolitiTweet.org

I was deeply saddened to hear that Master Sgt. Luis F. DeLeon-Figueroa, a highly decorated Green Beret who was killed in Afghanistan this week. The people of Chicopee and all of Massachusetts will remember and honor his service. https://t.co/KOkHO4ucuc — PolitiTweet.org

Great to see AGs and industry team up to combat robocalls. Working with my partner @SenJohnThune, along with House and Senate leaders, to send needed robocall legislation to the president's desk. https://t.co/I3InbDi4nd — PolitiTweet.org

Black mothers are far more likely than other mothers to be the primary or sole breadwinners for their families. #BlackWomensEqualPay is essential to economic stability for Black families. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Black women earn an estimated $946,120 less than white, non-Hispanic men over the course of a 40-year career. This gap is unacceptable and undermines the economic stability of families. Tell Congress to support #PaycheckFairness and #BlackWomensEqualPay. — PolitiTweet.org

If car companies are telling their investors about the cyber risks of internet-connected cars, the public deserves the same information. @SenBlumenthal and I just wrote to NHTSA looking for answers and action to address this critical safety issue. https://t.co/0LpiP3QuLP — PolitiTweet.org

These trafficking designations are a good step. But this is only the tip of the iceberg. Fentanyl is still pouring out of China and we can’t be satisfied until we stanch the flow. I will continue to push to ensure we address the threat of opioids. https://t.co/WsEeFd18gX — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to the phenomenal @RepKClark for joining me on stage today at this powerful organizing moment for a #GreenNewDeal. The 5th district has a tireless climate champion representing them and fighting for climate action now. https://t.co/1fi3STxxau — PolitiTweet.org

What a fantastic crowd tonight of more than 825 energized MetroWest residents here in Framingham for a discussion on the #GreenNewDeal. Looking forward to talking clean energy, green infrastructure, public health, and the transformative power of organizing for climate action. https://t.co/WymEvtMvxr — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans have had 175+ days to pass the House’s background check bill It’s clear that there is no tragedy that will make them anything more than temporarily “interested” in stopping gun violence. We just have to put them out of power. https://t.co/LebaBZGouP — PolitiTweet.org

Reducing the extent of unconstitutional cuts doesn’t rescue Trump’s poor decision to let Mulvaney starve the shrinking U.S. foreign aid budget. We must be the country that (1) provides assistance to those in need and (2) respects the separation of powers. https://t.co/VcMU1aNAiB — PolitiTweet.org
