Thank you to the local leaders and hundreds of engaged and energized community members who packed the Cape Playhouse for yesterday’s #GreenNewDeal town hall in Dennis. https://t.co/bEmnB0fdNY — PolitiTweet.org

Happy birthday to my friend and partner @SenWarren who, with her intellect, passion, and relentlessness, makes fighting for justice often look like a piece of cake. You fight for us every day. Today, we celebrate you. — PolitiTweet.org

Central to the #GreenNewDeal resolution is ensuring a democratic, inclusive process for determining how we move forward as a nation. Join me today at 3pm ET at the Cape Playhouse in Dennis for a #GreenNewDeal town hall. More info and RSVP here: https://t.co/ieRUfQ5IDl — PolitiTweet.org

These men and women have punched themselves a ticket to a world of opportunities because they are graduates of the Massachusetts Maritime Academy, the crown jewel in the Bay State’s tradition of maritime excellence. Honored to deliver today’s commencement speech. https://t.co/cPvIsNGBsD — PolitiTweet.org

Brayton Point Power Station, once the largest coal-fired generating station in New England, is today being redeveloped to play a key role in our growing offshore wind sector. Thank you for the tour of this transformative project. https://t.co/zg7QTkrrlw — PolitiTweet.org

ICE shouldn’t be allowed to use our halls of justice to ambush immigrants. Important victory for @DARollins, @DAMarianRyan, and all who value the sanctity of our courthouses. https://t.co/oJTBTy3Zzm — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The more we learn about this breach, the worse it gets. It’s not only outrageous DHS let sensitive data be compromised, the breach also highlights the extent of the border surveillance network and the risks of collecting this info in the first place. https://t.co/jm2opO9aLn — PolitiTweet.org

Calling off these strikes was the right outcome, but America is only in this situation with Iran because President Trump and his war cabinet have no strategy for dealing with the real threats Tehran poses to American interests. https://t.co/dMc1WEctI8 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Pushed by warmonger John Bolton, President Trump abandoned the Iran deal, imposed unnecessary sanctions, re-deployed thousands of troops to the Middle East, threatened the ‘official end of Iran’, and nearly executed an unconstitutional military strike early this morning. — PolitiTweet.org

The #TitleX gag rule isn’t just an assault on reproductive rights, it’s an assault on a woman’s overall right to quality healthcare. Make no mistake: this threatens the lives of millions, especially women of color. Congress needs to step up and #ProtectX. https://t.co/EmYxMtaXxR — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Happy to see the House has incorporated so many key provisions of the anti-robocall TRACED Act into their legislation. Looking forward to working with the House, sending a final package to the President, and finally putting an end to the robocall epidemic. https://t.co/Bp264aSrE7 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Pleased to see reports that the FTC is working to hold YouTube accountable. But we must do much more to ensure that our children are protected from online dangers. The adults in the room need to step in and ensure that corporate profits no longer come before kids’ privacy. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why today I voted to block the latest arms sales to Riyadh, which Trump proposed under a non-existent “emergency.” — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Saudi Arabia violently represses dissent, executed and dismembered a journalist, and is using American weaponry to slaughter civilians in Yemen. We should hold the Saudis accountable, not arm them. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Americans won’t let Donald Trump’s cruelty redefine who we are as a nation. We are a nation that opens its doors to the persecuted and a people that opens its heart to strangers in need. @RepZoeLofgren @RepJoeNeguse https://t.co/PXI50Rs6lt — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Donald Trump betrayed America’s foundational values by slashing our annual refugee admissions to 30,000. That’s why I introduced the GRACE Act, which will prohibit any president from setting an annual ceiling below the historic average of 95,000 refugee admissions. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

For the first time since 1980, Canada resettled more refugees than the U.S. With more than 24 million refugees around the globe and 70 million displaced persons, America must step into our leadership role, not away from it. https://t.co/qvr3Wh14nG — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

More often than not, we have answered that call — and today, it sounds to us louder than ever. But after centuries of opening our door to the persecuted, the Trump administration has forsaken our historic commitment to the world’s most vulnerable. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The first settlers fleeing religious oppression. Irish Catholics fleeing starvation. Eastern European Jews fleeing the pogroms. Syrians fleeing civil war. At nearly every juncture since its founding, America has been called upon to be a leader in welcoming the persecuted. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

On #WorldRefugeeDay, we keep in our hearts the millions of refugees around the globe who, despite facing devastating circumstances, display remarkable strength every day as they seek refuge for themselves and their loved ones. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

If tensions keep heightening we all must be suspicious of any Trump admin claims of ties between Iran+Al Qaeda. We can’t let Trump use the 2001 AUMF to launch a war. War is a decision only Congress can make. More war in the Mideast isn't in our interests. https://t.co/g4PkKn0gN5 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Trump admin left the Iran deal, imposed unnecessary sanctions, is deploying thousands of troops nearby & giving Saudi Arabia nuclear know-how. Attacking anything in int’l spaces is a problem, but Trump’s war cabinet is provoking Iran & getting the reaction Bolton+Pompeo want. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

80% of drones in the U.S. and Canada are Chinese-made. When I asked an expert at a Senate hearing this week if this could pose a national security threat, the response was a firm yes: https://t.co/HBNFipvpMq https://t.co/XuTDus5GgB — PolitiTweet.org

In the coming weeks, I will introduce legislation that will combat: -online design features that coerce children and create bad habits -marketing that manipulates kids and pushes them into consumer culture -the amplification of inappropriate and harmful content on the internet — PolitiTweet.org
