US recognition of crimes committed by the Burmese military against the Rohingya as genocide is an important step on the path to accountability and justice. Now we must also condemn additional atrocities committed against others in Burma as war crimes and crimes against humanity. — PolitiTweet.org

We're taking the clean energy revolution to Twitch. Join me live Wednesday to talk about my CHARGE Act to get cheaper, cleaner, and more reliable energy to people all across America. Follow at https://t.co/StV8kb0tsj. https://t.co/vEm0smcJK5 — PolitiTweet.org

Public transit projects like the Green Line Extension are critical to the vision of the Green New Deal. Today we celebrate new Green Line stations in Somerville and the just and livable future that we can and must build together. https://t.co/pO1DOceZqy — PolitiTweet.org

As the violence and unrest continues in Ethiopia, I’m signing on to the Ethiopia Peace and Democracy Promotion Act of 2021 to help pave a path to peace, democracy, and stability. The people of Ethiopia should not experience another day of violence and destruction. — PolitiTweet.org

Nationwide, an estimated 23 million COVID survivors will develop long COVID. This week, @TimKaine, @SenDuckworth and I sent a letter urging the Social Security Administration to improve guidance for those with long COVID who apply for disability benefits. https://t.co/T8RoWXDnT7 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Americans living with long COVID should not have to jump through unnecessary hoops to get the benefits they need. The Social Security Administration must ensure guidance on disability assistance for people with long COVID does not inappropriately limit access to benefits. — PolitiTweet.org

Guess who is making record profits? Big Oil! All while jacking up gas prices and lying to the American people. https://t.co/jQpEL6f6n6 — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations @Juana_B_Matias, the next administrator of @HUDNewEngland. Juana is a dedicated public servant and leader on issues of housing, justice, and equity. Residents across New England are very fortunate to have her at the helm of HUD Region 1. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans are blocking the nomination of Laura Holgate to the IAEA, the UN's international nuclear watchdog, as Russia holds Ukraine's nuclear facilities hostage. I took to the floor to send the message that we make nuclear safety and security a partisan issue at our own peril. https://t.co/zaH3M7QVab — PolitiTweet.org

I'm glad to see the Biden administration is opening TPS to Afghan refugees, including 1900 who call Massachusetts their home. We must do everything possible to protect, support, and welcome people who have fled and continue to leave Afghanistan. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This is very good news for small business owners in Massachusetts and across the country as @SBAgov defers payments on COVID economic injury loans for another two and a half years. — PolitiTweet.org

The clean energy revolution will be equitable, it will be efficient, and it's going to save everyone a lot of money on their energy bills. https://t.co/a7qzThcrDl — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We will not secure a livable future without a drastic reduction in emissions and a revitalized grid that can support all of the clean energy innovation that is before us. https://t.co/nTMleD9J5B — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

My CHARGE Act will accelerate a clean energy transition and implement a series of reforms through the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to lower costs for consumers, spur economic competition, and improve energy reliability. https://t.co/ZAw8pyepXz — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

While there has been rapid growth of renewable energy resources and skyrocketing public demand for clean energy, there are not nearly enough power lines to bridge the gap between clean power and the cities and towns that need it. The CHARGE Act changes that. https://t.co/bc1gfMEycC — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I just introduced my Connecting Hard-to-reach Areas with Renewably Generated Energy (CHARGE) Act to lay the groundwork for America’s clean energy revolution. For the United States to run on green energy, we first need to build green infrastructure. https://t.co/WEG5vGjUag — PolitiTweet.org

Millions of Americans have lost loved ones to Alzheimer's, Senator @MarkWarner and myself included. My mother passed in 1998. I'm proud the efforts of the Congressional Task Force on Alzheimer's Disease helped bring billions of federal research dollars to address this disease. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Big Oil is price gouging American drivers. These liars do nothing to make the United States energy independent or stabilize gas prices. It’s time we break up with Big Oil and ignite a clean energy revolution. https://t.co/3be5SRl1Q0 — PolitiTweet.org

I applaud the New Mexico State Legislature for affirming LGBTQ+ rights and banning gay and trans panic defenses. But this hateful practice remains legal in more than half of U.S. states. Now, we must pass my bill and ban panic defenses in all federal courts across the country. — PolitiTweet.org

After hearing from @ZelenskyyUa this morning, here is my message: the Ukrainian people have displayed incredible bravery in the face of Putin's criminal invasion. Now as Europe faces the largest mass migration since World War II, the US must open its doors to Ukrainian refugees. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Today, the Senate voted to make Daylight Saving Time permanent. That means no more switching clocks and more daylight hours to spend outside after school and work. Now I call on my colleagues in the House of Representatives to lighten up and pass the Sunshine Protection Act. https://t.co/jvReuQggCm — PolitiTweet.org

Women of color should not have to work twice as long to earn the same wages as white men. Black, Native, and Latina women won’t earn as much as White men until nearly the end of this year. We cannot celebrate progress in closing the gap until there is progress for all women. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This year, Equal Pay Day arrived early for white women, but the gender pay gap became even more severe for women of color, who are disproportionately represented in the industries that pay the least and were hardest hit by Covid-19. — PolitiTweet.org
