Reports that China is aiding Saudi Arabia’s ballistic missile program are deeply alarming, but not surprising. Congress must pass my Saudi WMD Act to prevent an illicit Saudi weapons program which could spark an arms race in that region. — PolitiTweet.org

We must take every opportunity to support and elevate Tribal sovereignty and land rights across the federal government as a cornerstone of our fight for a just, livable future. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I join the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe in celebrating today's decision that finally lays to rest the Trump admin's unlawful attempt to abrogate their sovereignty and reaffirms their right to this land, which they have stewarded for more than 10,000 years. https://t.co/LqoYG6iGjA — PolitiTweet.org

With this funding we can finally address preventable tragedies on our roads, expand transportation alternatives like biking and walking, reduce traffic congestion for Massachusetts commuters and begin the process of making our streets cleaner and greener. https://t.co/FKAy7LdiyZ — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Doing nothing about the climate crisis is simply not an option. We need to pass the bold climate action provisions in Build Back Better and take the first big step towards building a just and livable future for all children. https://t.co/sHglR6g9Gb — PolitiTweet.org

Please join me and @jimbraude on @GreaterBoston at 7pm tonight as we talk about the Omicron variant, voting rights, and what comes next for Build Back Better. — PolitiTweet.org

Tens of thousands of Afghans and their families face persecution and death threats from the Taliban, as well as threatened deportation back to Afghanistan for those who made it to third countries. USCIS must ensure that all vulnerable Afghans are paroled into the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Here’s a path forward. It’s got the pieces for a deal. Let’s get to work today. https://t.co/dBtgemThbk — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Wishing my tremendous partner @SenWarren a safe and quick recovery. Get well, my friend. I’ve got your back. — PolitiTweet.org

For Christmas this year, I want economic justice in America. https://t.co/srTprO5wrQ — PolitiTweet.org

We cannot let this moment pass. https://t.co/Q8U4Da4H27 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Every community should have clean air and clean water. The Build Back Better Act includes my Environmental Justice Mapping bill with @RepCori that identifies and addresses the worst polluted communities in America. Let’s get it done. https://t.co/Ga2OZxSGud — PolitiTweet.org

The Senate has confirmed Massachusetts State Representative Claire Cronin as our next Ambassador to Ireland. Her commitment to public service, diplomatic acumen, and work ethic are unmatched and will serve her well in Dublin. Congratulations Claire! — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Congratulations Ambassador @RufusGifford, President Biden's next Chief of Protocol, on your confirmation. I know you will represent Massachusetts and serve the nation with dignity and pride for world leaders visiting the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

The Omicron variant is spreading. Please get vaccinated, get boosted, wear a mask, and take care that you protect yourself and others. https://t.co/tUq8y4q4SN — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We can have a clean energy future where wind, solar, and battery storage technologies are powering homes and businesses everywhere, but only if we do what we were elected to do and pass the Build Back Better Act. https://t.co/fGCaBAzAK1 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

As Massachusetts is again seeing an uptick in COVID-19 cases, I am so very grateful that these health care heroes are able to return to work. We thank @SecMartyWalsh and the Biden administration for helping to bring about this agreement and end to this strike. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I am pleased to see this agreement includes a guarantee for all @MassNurses who went out on strike the right to return to work in the same position, as well as improvements to patient safety. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Today’s tentative agreement between the St. Vincent Hospital nurses and Tenet Healthcare is a win for Worcester, for organized labor, for the health care workers who have stood on the frontlines of this pandemic, and, ultimately, for patients. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Ghost Army will no longer be unseen in the shadows. By awarding this unit with a Congressional Gold Medal, the Senate will help lift their contributions out of the darkness and honor these patriots for their service to our country. https://t.co/5YHTPYn6DA — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We urgently need to pass the Build Back Better Act and devote targeted funding to air quality monitoring, including through proposals like my Environmental Justice Air Quality Monitoring Act, to finally put an end to this human health injustice — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

A new study found that, across decades, people of color are still more likely to be exposed to dirty air than White people in every state across the country. The science is loud and clear, and the federal government needs to act on it. https://t.co/Ln2c0z01LF — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

For more than 50 years, countless children have been injured or killed when the front seats of cars collapse after a crash. I’m proud to have passed legislation and secured Dr. Cliff’s commitment to finally end these tragedies. https://t.co/dA2qvc8RI6 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I want parents across America to be able to wake up on Christmas morning knowing they can get the child care they need and send their children to pre-K at no cost because we passed the Build Back Better Act. https://t.co/ZhReSu1HCE — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I’m so proud that Massachusetts’s own @RNicholasBurns has been confirmed to be Ambassador to China. There’s no better person to navigate this vital relationship at a difficult time. I’m grateful for his commitment to public service. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Few things get me angrier than airline CEOs making excuses and taking advantage of travelers. https://t.co/Vi3UIrvEAJ — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Warming poles and ocean temperatures likely played a role in bringing the supercell conditions that led to the devastating tornadoes that tore across our country. While addressing climate change, we can also strengthen our buildings, climate monitoring, and resiliency plans. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Climate change at the poles causes rising sea levels and shifting air currents that affect communities all across the globe, and just last week we witnessed how devastating the effects can be. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

As the Arctic continues to warm, a critical ice shelf in Antarctica is cracking. Looking at the Arctic report card, it’s clear we’ve failed our planet by failing to act on climate. By passing the Build Back Better Act we can earn a passing grade instead. https://t.co/4PaVJyUkYf — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We need to extend the enhanced Child Tax Credit before the end of the year. If we do not and it expires, 4 million children will be at risk of falling back into poverty in 2022. Allowing that to happen would be devastating and grave mistake. — PolitiTweet.org
