Congress must not only support the EPA’s longstanding, life-saving efforts to protect the climate and public health in the face of this decision, but Congress must also do its job and pass meaningful climate and clean energy funding to protect our communities and our future. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We cannot sit by as a captured, illegitimate, and far-right Supreme Court majority eviscerates the authorities that the government has had for decades to address greenhouse gas pollution from fossil fuels and prevent climate chaos. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Supreme Court’s decision in West Virginia v. EPA lets polluters turn back the clock on fifty years of reduced pollution and improved air quality all across the country. The result of this dangerous decision is an EPA that is undermined in its ability to protect the public. — PolitiTweet.org

The inauguration of President-elect Ferdinand Marcos Jr. will be an opportunity to reject the repression of the past, release Senator Leila de Lima, and embrace policies that support the rule of law and a vibrant free press in the Philippines. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Deeply troubled by the latest actions of President Duterte’s outgoing administration to stifle independent voices, like Maria Ressa and Rappler, who are not afraid to shine a light on government abuses. https://t.co/PEQL3p88jc — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I just met with @SenWarren, @reproequity_now, @PPMASS, and @ACLU_Mass about what we must do following SCOTUS’s overturning of Roe v. Wade—including abolishing the filibuster, codifying Roe, expanding the Court, and protecting people traveling to Massachusetts for an abortion. https://t.co/8VhkrUFVQ6 — PolitiTweet.org

It was my honor to meet this morning with the 2022 Mandela Washington Fellows—young leaders from 20 countries across Sub-Saharan Africa who represent the future of their home countries and our interconnected world. https://t.co/rbx914a4Fc — PolitiTweet.org

The sentencing of Vietnamese environmental defender Nguy Thi Khanh only highlights Vietnam’s suppression of environmental activists. We must support civil society in Vietnam and around the world as we work to ensure everyone has clean air, clean water, and a livable climate. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This horrific tragedy, and every death at our border, is a devastating reflection of our nation’s failed immigration policies that criminalize asylum seekers and make the pursuit of safety only more dangerous. We must end Title 42 and welcome all those seeking refuge in the U.S. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We need to make sure that the United States is in the driver’s seat of the EV revolution. These investments will not only ensure that, but they will boost domestic manufacturing and drive EV charger deployment across the country. https://t.co/Dys8Ld6KEy — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

If we invest in climate resiliency today we can protect frontline communities from the worst impacts of climate change and build the just and livable future that all children deserve. That is what we did today at Moakley Park and what we must do all across the country. https://t.co/8Bz7LHsc7w — PolitiTweet.org

RT @Teamsters: “Teamster school bus drivers & other school employees are being denied health care due to this ACA loophole. Teamsters join… — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Good morning from South Boston where we are celebrating $1.65 million secured for a climate-resilient Moakley Park, critical funding that will help this community withstand the growing impacts of the climate crisis. https://t.co/B7B3OFXdpi — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Trans rights are human rights. LGBTQ+ rights are human rights. And it is our shared responsibility to protect trans young people from hate and discrimination. As Pride Month comes to a close, I am recommitting myself to the fight for justice and equality for the LGBTQ+ community. https://t.co/RD3Vc0Cmzk — PolitiTweet.org

According to the Post’s reporting, despite past promises that Facebook would prohibit firearm sales, the company allows gun sellers and buyers to violate its policy 10 times before they are removed. We are urging Facebook to meaningfully enforce its ban on firearm sales. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

My heart is with the victims of the earthquake in Afghanistan, which is compounding a dire humanitarian crisis. I urge @POTUS: continue to support international efforts to provide the Afghan people with humanitarian aid and ensure that vulnerable Afghans are paroled into the US. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

If this extremist Court will dismantle something as fundamental as the right for an American to make decisions about their own body, then we are on a slippery slope to the undoing of other fundamental rights. But Congress can act. We can expand the Court and protect our rights. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Again, I ask my colleagues in the Senate what other judicial outrage must we endure from the illegitimate, far-right majority on the Supreme Court before we act? Fight back and expand the Court now. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Thirteen states stand poised to enforce radical and unjust bans on abortion. The Court’s decision has destroyed nearly fifty years of precedent and will allow the criminalization of the right to this essential healthcare. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The overturning of Roe v. Wade and Casey v. Planned Parenthood is an egregious and overtly political act that jeopardizes the health, safety, and freedom of millions of Americans. Abolish the filibuster, pass the Women's Health Protection Act, and expand the Court now. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Only when we end the NRA's stranglehold on Republicans and act bravely in defense of our children and communities will we deliver a future free from gun violence. I am inspired by activists and organizers who got us here, and as you continue this fight, I am with you. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Tonight's passage of the first bipartisan gun safety agreement in decades is the start of negotiations, not the end. We need more than just this moment. Tomorrow, we get back to work on a gun safety agenda that takes weapons of war off our streets and out of schools. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Massachusetts has a low rate of gun violence, but today’s Supreme Court decision puts that at risk. We may now see the rollback of our laws that give police chiefs the responsibility for issuing gun licenses and that bar the concealment of deadly weapons in public. — PolitiTweet.org

Gig workers are organizing for the protections they deserve and I will be by their side every step of the way. Thank you @GigWorkersRise for making your voices heard outside of Lyft's headquarters today. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

A new low for the high Court. With each far-right decision issued by a stolen, illegitimate majority—we see why. It’s time to expand the Court and reclaim it for the American people. https://t.co/GoMjmYJdMz — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I am proud to support @SenWarren's bill to establish a commission to investigate, document, and acknowledge these past injustices. Only by reckoning with these truths will we begin to address the historic and intergenerational trauma felt by native families and communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Thank you @SecDebHaaland for your brave testimony. It's essential that our nation reckons with this dark history and addresses the lasting effects of the horrific policies that took native children from their families and stripped them of their identities, beliefs, and languages. — PolitiTweet.org
