There is no separating Russian oil from the corruption and human rights abuses of the Putin regime. We cannot criticize Europe for its reliance on Russian energy, as we pour dirty oil money into Russia. We cannot stop Putin with Russia’s gas in our cars. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

American fossil fuel companies helped fuel Putin’s criminal war against Ukraine. Our global addiction to oil keeps us locked into dangerous cycles of conflict, but we can choose a cleaner path to peace. The SPIGOT Act will stop the importation of all Russian oil into the U.S. https://t.co/8hzjMrYR4a — PolitiTweet.org

“This has been a grueling battle, but we maintained our honor and dignity and union rights we’ve fought for for 22 years, it could make you cry.” - Marlena Pellegrino, longtime nurse and co-chair of the bargaining unit. This is what union power feels like. https://t.co/hdECwWlMYS — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to the nurses of St. Vincent's and @MassNurses for defeating this corporate-funded decertification effort. These courageous nurses are sticking together, sticking with their union, and proving that solidarity wins. — PolitiTweet.org

The life-threatening effects of the climate crisis and greenhouse gas emissions have never been clearer and the stakes could not be higher. We cannot allow a stolen court to steal our future by limiting the EPA’s authority to regulate climate pollution. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @MayorWu: Help us spread the word: Starting today, the 23, 28 & 29 @MBTA buses are free for everyone! @Kim_Janey @RepPressley @SenMarkey… — PolitiTweet.org

Today we saw yet another coordinated assault by Republicans on reproductive health and freedom. Abortion is essential, life-saving health care. We must abolish the filibuster and codify Roe v. Wade into law. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The new IPCC report lays it out: the climate crisis is changing our world before our eyes and threatens all life on Earth. And the solution to this crisis is to transform our society on our own terms with a Green New Deal that centers justice as quickly as humanly possible. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I will be voting YES on the Women's Health Protection Act because abortion is health care and every person deserves to have control over their bodies and their health. #ActforAbortionAccess #WHPA — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I will be introducing a bill to keep $20 billion worth of Russian oil out of the United States every year. We must lead the way in cutting off the oil and gas money that funds Putin's unprovoked and criminal invasion of Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Yet another signal that the US is open and in demand for offshore wind. The future is clear—union-made offshore wind turbines will power our robust clean economy. And deployment will be done by forging even stronger community engagement with tribes and fishing communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Ukrainian people who are fighting for their lives did not choose this war. The Russian people who are courageously demonstrating in the streets did not choose this war. Vladimir Putin chose this war. I'm with the people. — PolitiTweet.org

Every child has a right to feel safe in their school and community. We must protect trans kids and put a stop to the unacceptable and bigoted acts of transphobia in Texas and across this country. https://t.co/A5RYd8M5kL — PolitiTweet.org

Judge Jackson will bring to SCOTUS a needed perspective that has been sorely lacking. She will make the Court look more like, and better represent, all the American people. This is a day that is long overdue. I look forward to a smooth and speedy confirmation process. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

With this historic nomination of Judge Jackson, President Biden has done much more than fulfill a campaign promise. He has recognized and given voice to millions of Black women who for more than two centuries have never been represented on the nation’s highest court. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson possesses the ability, character, and temperament that justices of the nation’s highest court must have. She has dedicated her career to justice, bringing the unique perspective of a former public defender to the bench. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I am thrilled by President Biden’s nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court. @POTUS has selected a brilliant and eminently qualified jurist with a proven and successful track record on the bench as a federal judge. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Massachusetts is only the national leader on environmental policy because of the dedicated work of people like Dr. David Cash. I look forward to working with him as EPA's Region 1 Administrator and excited for the rest of New England to see his expertise and enthusiasm in action. — PolitiTweet.org

Five years ago today, @SenLeiladeLima was wrongfully imprisoned for shining a light on Rodrigo Duterte's abuses. @SenatorDurbin, @SenatorLeahy and I continue to demand that the Philippine government drop its politically-motivated charges and immediately release Senator De Lima. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Putin’s invasion of Ukraine may lead to the largest migration of people in Europe since WWII. The United States must offer refuge and humanitarian assistance to Ukrainians fleeing Putin’s unprovoked war of choice. https://t.co/STtjlNfPV6 — PolitiTweet.org

GE Aviation is preparing to move 80 union jobs out of its Lynn manufacturing facility. I'm standing in solidarity with the workers of @IUE_CWAUnion Local 201 to say that this disinvestment must end and that GE must stand by its union workforce in Lynn. https://t.co/65Vg8UeC5H — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I’m meeting this morning with union GE workers in Lynn about the company’s move to take 80 jobs out of Lynn and disinvest from this community. We’re going to stand up and fight back to protect these workers. https://t.co/AND6lRjdZF — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

My prayers are with Ukraine tonight. This is a fabricated conflict that could have a massive human toll, all spurred by the delusional aspirations of a weak dictator. We stand with Ukraine. The world is united against Vladimir Putin. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Met with public health and elected leaders in Fall River today to hear about the ongoing opioid crisis and discuss my work in Washington. The addiction crisis has only gotten worse during the pandemic. We need to support prevention, treatment, and recovery in all our communities. https://t.co/BnGdohjxJy — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Postmaster Louis DeJoy is making a huge mistake rejecting the reality of climate change and the commitments that President Biden has made to confront this crisis. We need to tear this deal up and build an all-electric fleet of USPS vehicles. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Our global fossil fuel addiction is a catalyst for conflict, but a Green New Deal would be a pathway for peace. The United States must lead our European allies in the clean energy revolution to protect us all—from Russia and from the existential threat of climate. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This is yet another example of the importance of eliminating U.S. and European reliance on Russian dirty energy as quickly as possible. Putin and his cronies continue to fill their pockets with dirty oil and gas money at the expense of Ukraine and European energy independence. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We must continue to provide unwavering support for Ukraine and NATO allies in Europe. President Biden is right to continue seeking a diplomatic resolution, despite the fact that time and again Putin has rejected compromise proposed by the Biden administration, NATO, and Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

U.S. allies have also stepped up to the plate with tough, targeted sanctions of their own. If Russia’s incursion continues, more sanctions will follow. — PolitiTweet.org
