.@TuftsUniversity holds a special place in my heart, so receiving an honorary degree today truly is a full-circle moment. For me, Tufts will always represent a world of possibility. Thank you so much for having me today. https://t.co/PoIn3BUNsy — PolitiTweet.org

Today was a day of joy and accomplishment. I had the honor of giving the commencement address to Bridgewater State University graduates, who I’m confident will change the world. Thank you @BridgeStateU for having me today. https://t.co/8okAuSeyV1 — PolitiTweet.org

Community health centers are critical providers of medical care for millions of Americans. Thank you @ManetCommunity Health Center and Taunton Mayor Tom Hoye for hosting me today. I will always fight for treatment resources and funding for this irreplaceable center. https://t.co/Es9v5uLZeD — PolitiTweet.org

The South Coast is one of my favorite places in Massachusetts. It’s so historic, so diverse, and so full of potential. Great to be with @NewBedfordArea and other local leaders today to talk about how my work in the Senate can benefit their businesses and communities. https://t.co/UPARvwSCPz — PolitiTweet.org

The 2004 victory was hard fought. It was only possible because of the bravery, resiliency, and sacrifice of so many who never gave up. We remember what they gave, and pledge to carry the torch forward in the fight for equality and justice. — PolitiTweet.org

15 years ago #OTD Mass. became the 1st state to legalize same-sex marriage. This afternoon the House will pass the #EqualityAct to prohibit #LGBT discrimination. Today is a day to reflect on how far we’ve come, celebrate the power of mass movements & recommit to the fights ahead. — PolitiTweet.org

Boston is an A-list city is so many ways, but it’s especially great to see that the efforts of Mayor @marty_walsh and @BOSCityCouncil have made it a top-ranked global leader on climate change. I hope Boston’s example helps other cities make the grade. https://t.co/9cdiqr55QM — PolitiTweet.org

Sanctions on those responsible for the campaign of violence against the LGBTI community in Chechnya is a good first step. But America can’t just be reactive in this space. I’ve intro’d a bill to appoint a @StateDept Special Envoy dedicated to advancing LGBTI rights worldwide. — PolitiTweet.org

Just as we learn that a Guatemalan 2-year-old died in U.S. custody, Donald Trump unveils a plan that would make our already brutal immigration system even more inhumane. I will fight this proposal, and any plan that doesn’t treat immigrants with fairness, mercy, and dignity. — PolitiTweet.org

If Wheeler wants to talk about public health, he should pick up the National Climate Assessment—which he told me in a hearing that he hadn’t even read—and learn about how climate change is public health emergency. — PolitiTweet.org

The grid is in the #GreenNewDeal, page 7, subsection D. But Andrew Wheeler does know about reliability. He’s reliably been doing the bidding of the coal industry his entire career. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Ignoring your European allies and going back on your word aren't a recipe for deal-making success. If Trump wants to avoid Bolton and Pompeo shoving him into an unjustifiable war, he should return to the #IranDeal to set the stage for further negotiations. https://t.co/mMbrRAGXUT — PolitiTweet.org

Our government works best for Bay Staters when our city, state, and federal leaders work together. Great meeting today with Mayor @marty_walsh, @MassGovernor Baker, and @SenatorCarper on how we can partner to expand infrastructure investments in Massachusetts. https://t.co/xFMCbtOeOI — PolitiTweet.org

.@Delta’s anti-union efforts disrespect the workers who made it one of the most successful airlines on the planet. These exercises in corporate greed are unacceptable. Delta's workers are individuals worthy of dignity, not threats to be manipulated and exploited. — PolitiTweet.org

While Bernhardt gets sound sleep after a career working for corporate polluters the planet is burning as a result of the pollution spewed by his Big Oil backers. No one should be getting sound sleep as long as he's in charge of @Interior & climate change is destroying our planet. — PolitiTweet.org

My anti-robocall #TRACEDAct with @SenJohnThune is now up to an incredible ***80*** co-sponsors! This rare amount of bipartisan support shows just how annoyed Americans are with robocalls, and how eager they are to see Congress do something about it. We will, and soon. — PolitiTweet.org

Transportation now emits more GHGs than any other sector in the U.S. Since federal spending helps shape how our transportation system is designed, to #ActOnClimate, we need a paradigm shift in the way federal dollars are spent. Every dollar spent must account for climate impacts. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans are engaging in designed war against women’s reproductive freedom. They will use their foot soldiers placed in state governments, state courts, and the Supreme Court to do their bidding. — PolitiTweet.org
