Wall Street knew the economy would crash. Kept trading. Pharma knew they were hooking people on opioids. Kept pushing. Big Oil knew about climate change. Kept polluting. Because they were profiting Stopping the climate crisis requires more than the market, it requires a movement — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to the leaders from the immigration and refugee advocacy communities who joined me at @ChelseaCollab today for the release of my office’s new report that details the Trump administration’s assault on our immigration system. https://t.co/nNYQ8xI4kn — PolitiTweet.org

If these reports constitute new activity, the admin should initiate test-site visits and hold Russia accountable. But we shouldn't be pushed into moves like resuming nuclear testing, abandoning arms control agreements, or developing more low-yield weapons. https://t.co/BifL13tAh9 — PolitiTweet.org

This assault on immigrants will impact our economy, our social fabric, and America’s standing in the world. Unless unwound, the Trump administration’s anti-immigrant agenda will leave a stain on this nation and forever upend the very foundations of democracy in the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

From late July to late November 2018, ICE arrested 170 potential sponsors of UACs, 64% of whom had no criminal record. ICE is also targeting asylum seekers, immigrant victims of crime, and children who have recently aged out of the foster care system. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
Trump’s ICE is intentionally targeting vulnerable populations and those who support them. Over the past 2 years, ICE has targeted sponsors of UACs. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
Trump’s Department of Justice has reinterpreted the definition of UACs to strip protections from children previously determined to be UACs. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
Unaccompanied alien children (UACs) are children under age 18 who have no lawful immigration status and who have no parent or legal guardian in the United States, or have no parent or legal guardian in the United States available to provide care and physical custody. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
But Trump’s Attorneys General have used this to restrict discretion of immigration judges, advance partisan political objectives, and unilaterally reinterpret immigration law. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
The Attorney General can overturn immigration court decisions by “self-referring” them. Previous AGs have wielded this power cautiously because these decisions can affect hundreds of thousands of immigrants. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
The Trump admin is now revisiting thousands of cases the Obama admin administratively closed and ICE is considering revisiting all 355,000 administratively closed cases. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
“Administrative closure” removes a case from an active court docket and halts deportation proceedings. Often used to provide relief to, for example, parents of U.S. citizen children or immigrants who have lived here for decades without a criminal record. — PolitiTweet.org

Over the past two years, the State Department has ordered reductions in the number of refugee resettlement offices - citing the self-inflicted problem of few refugee arrivals. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
For fiscal year 2018, Trump set refugee admissions at a record-low 45,000 (historical average is 95,000). The next year he slashed admissions to a mere 30,000. His administration is now using this manufactured slowdown to dismantle our resettlement program. — PolitiTweet.org

Some of the most heinous actions the Trump admin has taken to target immigrants have been made in the shadows. Today, I’m releasing a new report to shed light on these surreptitious actions.

Political interference cannot be permitted to suppress the work of our scientists. I’m demanding answers on the Trump administration's reported efforts to exclude information about the worst impacts of climate change from the next National Climate Assessment. https://t.co/qeDPBszVBf — PolitiTweet.org

The Constitution lays out “a process other than the criminal justice system to formally accuse a sitting President of wrong doing”-Mueller The House is trying but the admin is blocking oversight & resisting subpoenas. Trump seems to want to set the table for his own impeachment. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
Robert Mueller is a man of few spoken words and chose his words carefully. The ones he left us with are the most important: Russia systematically interfered in our elections. — PolitiTweet.org

The New England Regions Airport Division Office represents six states, ten tribal nations, and 109 airports. I strongly urge the FAA to not hinder this essential Division Office's ability to make effective funding decisions by downgrading it. https://t.co/WZjKESUj5c — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. needs to hold the Burmese military accountable for the violence it commits and the impunity it allows. As I have said before, this starts at the top with its senior-most officials. — PolitiTweet.org
Ed Markey @SenMarkey
When military officers responsible for killing innocent people serve a shorter prison sentence than the Pulitzer-prize winning journalists jailed for reporting on the massacres, we know the Burmese military is not serious about justice. https://t.co/5Kn9jhMVD3 — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Costin is a political powerhouse and as dedicated a leader that Massachusetts has ever known.

The Department of Health and Human Services should focus on ensuring that all Americans get the health care they need, not inventing ways to discriminate against transgender people. This is hate for hate’s sake from the Trump administration. https://t.co/dMITQktLks — PolitiTweet.org

Tuesday: Trump admin. says its actions have put the Iran threat “on hold.” Today: Trump approves deployment of more troops and weapons to the region. This administration must stop signaling that the U.S. has aggressive intentions, inadvertently or not. https://t.co/MTn9nu26kw — PolitiTweet.org
