There have been several confirmed overdose deaths at military installations since 2020, but the real death toll might be even higher. This is very alarming. We need answers and we need solutions. I’m calling on the Pentagon to account for these deaths and protect service members. — PolitiTweet.org

We are living in a climate emergency. There are no emergency rooms for planets. We must act now. — PolitiTweet.org

Americans' privacy is evaporating before our eyes as companies we're all aware of and companies we've never heard of alike collect troves of data about where we go, what we do, and who we are—then it's sold to law enforcement. This surveillance has to end. https://t.co/QC21M5yMOO — PolitiTweet.org

125,000 refugees is the floor, not the ceiling. We have a moral responsibility to match the scale of the global refugee crisis and welcome those fleeing war, violence, conflict, persecution, and displacement across the globe. — PolitiTweet.org

.@USDOT must use its authority to ensure that asylum seekers and other migrants cannot be transported under false pretenses as part of a competition among wannabe Trump acolytes to claim the mantle of cruelest governor in the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

Offshore wind projects are a crucial part of our clean energy future—creating tens of thousands of jobs, reducing carbon pollution, and lowering costs. The clean energy revolution is here and it's a win for our climate, our wallets, and our communities. https://t.co/DQe6xoxbUI — PolitiTweet.org

Good. We won’t choose between keeping the government open and protecting environmental justice communities. I will keep fighting for a safe, just, and healthy clean energy future for all. — PolitiTweet.org

ME/CFS was America's hidden health crisis long before the pandemic. Now, COVID long haulers are experiencing its debilitating effects. That's why I'm pushing for $27 million to study the intersection of COVID and ME/CFS, and for medical education on the diagnosis and treatment. — PolitiTweet.org

Congress needs to pass my Good Jobs for Good Airports Act, to raise the wages and benefits of airport service workers. These unsung heroes have served on the frontlines of the pandemic. A living wage and benefits is the least they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Airport workers should not earn less in an hour than it costs for a slice of pizza and a drink. I am with @seiuusww, @UniteHereLocal2 and the 1000 San Francisco airport workers in their fight for fair pay and benefits. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I am in solidarity with the brave women and allies protesting the senseless murder of Mahsa Amini. We must support Iranians in their quest for freedom and autonomy, while ensuring these values are protected at home and across the globe. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, on World Contraception Day, the right to contraception is under attack. In Justice Thomas’ concurring opinion in Dobbs he urged the Court to reconsider its previous recognition of this essential right. The Senate must act now and pass my Right to Contraception Act. https://t.co/LjnKWFZ6mw — PolitiTweet.org

L’Shanah Tovah to all those celebrating Rosh Hashanah. Wishing you and your families a new year of peace, health, happiness and joy! — PolitiTweet.org

I'm glad the Biden administration is extending TPS for Burma. We must welcome Burmese people fleeing horrific atrocities and hold the Burmese military accountable for perpetrating genocide and crimes against humanity. https://t.co/Py3su0JoT6 — PolitiTweet.org

It shouldn’t take the World Bank chief two days to acknowledge the science of climate change. We can build a climate-safe future or we can pour more money into polluting industries. Institutions need to face reality, invest in a global green economy & help the vulnerable adapt. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I fight for environmental justice, not fast-tracking fossil fuels. Don’t make us choose between keeping the government open and keeping communities’ rights. — PolitiTweet.org

It's time to pass the DISCLOSE act and get dark money out of politics. — PolitiTweet.org

The New Bedford fishing port, our vibrant coastal towns, and our South Coast salt marshes are our treasures. @thetrustees are projecting that more than two feet of sea level rise will devastate Massachusetts coasts by 2050. We have to act. https://t.co/zX2cjx389w — PolitiTweet.org

On this International Day of Peace, we continue bearing witness to conflicts across the globe, from Russia’s unprovoked war in Ukraine to the Burmese military's attacks on its own people. Now more than ever, we must commit ourselves to the pursuit of peace. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

.@POTUS is right to condemn Russia’s nuclear saber-rattling. Putin's extreme recklessness since he invaded Ukraine, from threatening to use nuclear weapons to attacking nuclear power plants, is irresponsible and dangerous. https://t.co/doNLw96Dqk — PolitiTweet.org

Today is Black Women’s equal pay day. To make as much as a white, non-Hispanic man made in 2021, a Black woman had to work from January 1, 2021 until today—263 days into 2022. This way-too-late date comes a month later than last year. We have to close the pay gap not widen it. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Senate has finally voted to ratify the Kigali amendment—limiting superpollutants and taking steps to dramatically reduce global warming—all while creating tens of thousands of good jobs. This is a victory for the climate movement. Jobs, justice, and a livable planet. — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. must stop providing security assistance to Azerbaijan until Armenia and Azerbaijan reach a permanent and lasting resolution that respects the will of the people of Nagorno-Karabakh. I'm calling on @StateDept and @DeptofDefense to take action now. https://t.co/fcQhdSnRHC — PolitiTweet.org

Cleaner trucks mean healthier communities. I applaud @EPA for taking another look at how to make sure truck emission and air pollution standards are the most up-to-date. @USPS take notes. https://t.co/V11siFcP85 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We need to get dark money out of American politics. I'm voting for @SenWhitehouse's DISCLOSE Act to do just that. Democracy should be transparent, not shrouded in secrecy. Let's put voters back in charge. — PolitiTweet.org
