Russia’s indiscriminate war has put nuclear power stations in Ukraine and their personnel at grave risk. The Senate must confirm Ambassador Laura Holgate to the @IAEAorg – the international watchdog responsible for preventing a potential nuclear disaster – without delay. — PolitiTweet.org

This decision rights the historic wrongs of the Trump administration, but we’re just gearing up. We must continue to implement the most stringent vehicle emission standards possible for everything on the road – everything from passenger cars to pickups to semi-trucks. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

By restoring California’s authority to set its own strong vehicle emissions standards, the Biden administration is putting states around the country back in the driver’s seat on the road to their climate, public health, and energy security goals. https://t.co/druixDc5W0 — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden made the right decision to ban Russian oil imports. Now we need to make the ban permanent, mandate reporting on the connection between Russian human rights abuses and the Russian oil and gas industry, and invest in an American-led clean energy revolution. https://t.co/JNLWyi02To — PolitiTweet.org

With $4.69 billion committed through the Emergency Connectivity Fund and 12.5 million+ students connected to the internet since June 2021, we're making progress on closing the Homework Gap. But until every student has access to the tools they need, our work will not be finished. — PolitiTweet.org

Today is International Women’s Day and it's an opportunity for each of us to commit to the fight for gender equality, to say loudly and clearly that women's rights are human rights, and to demand that women all over the world be treated with dignity and respect. #IWD2022 https://t.co/nDSyWjdNjd — PolitiTweet.org

At least three Black men have already been wrongfully arrested on a false facial recognition match. We cannot ignore how these technologies pose unique threats to communities of color. My bill stops the use of facial recognition technology by federal entities and law enforcement. — PolitiTweet.org

Finally making lynching a hate crime is an important step in addressing America's history of violent, systemic racism and working to build a just, equitable, and anti-racist society. https://t.co/iQx9rOVB2D — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden is right. The clean energy revolution will help prevent fossil-fueled conflicts and climate catastrophe. Let's act now. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We can begin by passing $555 billion in climate and clean energy provisions to supercharge the solar, wind, electric vehicle, battery revolution that will be union-made in America and free us once and for all from the shackles of fossil fuels. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This moment is a clarion call for the urgent need to transition to domestic clean energy so that we are never again complicit in fossil-fueled conflict. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We need to mandate reporting on the connection between Russian human rights abuses and the Russian oil and gas industry so that we can hold abusers accountable, as laid out in my SPIGOT Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I am pleased to see that the White House has joined the bipartisan consensus in Congress to ban Russian oil imports. We need to make this ban permanent and finally separate ourselves from the Russian oil funding the corruption and human rights abuses of the Putin regime. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We need to permanently ban Russian oil and gas and supercharge American-made clean energy. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Biden admin and infrastructure funding passed by Congress are ✅Boosting public transit and public health ✅Cutting pollution ✅Reducing our reliance on oil—both domestic and foreign ✅Preventing emergency room visits for asthma ✅Protecting our wallets from gas price gouging — PolitiTweet.org

Here is your good news of the day. We're getting new, cleaner school buses in Quincy, stronger proposed rules to cut toxic pollution from trucks, and building the clean trucks of the future. — PolitiTweet.org

Pass the SPIGOT Act. End Russian oil imports. https://t.co/hryqf3yVGz — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

There is growing, bipartisan momentum for banning Russian oil imports. Today @MartinHeinrich, @RepRoKhanna, and @RepNancyMace have signed on to my bill to deny Putin and his cronies billions in dirty oil profits and replace those imports with alternative, clean sources of energy. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

80% of Americans, including solid majorities of Republicans and Democrats, want the U.S. to stop buying Russian oil. We need to pass my SPIGOT Act and pursue the pathway to peace that is powered by domestic clean energy. — PolitiTweet.org

Today the 2022 #Paralympics begin and I am cheering on five tremendous athletes from Massachusetts who will be competing in these historic games with @TeamUSA. Good luck @kylezych, @GriffinLaMarre, @connorhoganski, @DavidUseless, and @lauriestephens3! — PolitiTweet.org

Sophia Gluskin-Braun was fired as retaliation for organizing restaurant workers at Logan Airport to unionize. If management wants to make an example of her and intimidate workers, they will only succeed in showing the power of what working people can achieve when they organize. — PolitiTweet.org

The FTC found that Weight Watchers' parent company illegally collected data to push weight loss content to kids as young as 8. We need to pass my legislation because if the minors had been 13, 14, or 15, they wouldn’t have any privacy protections against this predatory practice. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Biden administration was right to designate Ukraine for TPS and allow Ukrainians currently in the U.S. to stay here and stay safe. However, with 1 million refugees already forced out of Ukraine, TPS is not enough. We must welcome refugees and provide humanitarian assistance. — PolitiTweet.org

I extend my sincere condolences to the family and loved ones of State Trooper Tamar Bucci. Please join me in remembering Trooper Bucci and honoring her life and commitment to service. — PolitiTweet.org

I am very proud to have received a 100% on @LCVoters 2021 Scorecard, but it's the climate movement that deserves recognition. We made tremendous progress this past year in our fight for a just and livable future and are now on the verge of sealing an historic climate deal. https://t.co/JFAOwuUsMl — PolitiTweet.org

First responders and nuclear safety personnel must be allowed to immediately address the situation at Zaporizhzhia. If this disaster is allowed to worsen then Putin will be putting his own people and those in countries across Europe at terrible risk. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Russia’s horrifying attack on the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant could result in a nuclear disaster spanning hundreds of square miles in all directions. Fallout doesn’t respect borders. This would be an international war crime by Putin that could result in incredible devastation. — PolitiTweet.org
