Thank you to the staff and volunteers at @MyBrothersTable in Lynn for the love and compassion that you share with your community. I was so very grateful to visit and meet with you today. https://t.co/zpuWqZ2zvH — PolitiTweet.org

We must not stop until we find lasting justice for Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Laquan McDonald, Breonna Taylor, and so many more. Today is but one step in our long fight for true justice for every victim of racist violence in America. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Our work to dismantle the systemic racism that serves as a death sentence for Black people across America must continue unabated. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Black lives matter. Ahmaud Arbery’s life mattered. Today, the three men who murdered Ahmaud Arbery were held to account for their racist crime. This verdict cannot bring Ahmaud back, and his death is a loss the Arbery family should never have had to experience. — PolitiTweet.org

Today more than 10 million students across the country are benefitting from my Emergency Connectivity Fund. This is tremendous progress toward closing the homework gap, but we will not stop here. I’m fighting to deliver more home connectivity funding in the Build Back Better Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Foundational to every student's success is access to information. That's why I fought so hard to secure the funding that schools like @cristoreyboston needed to get their students new devices and Wi-Fi hot spots so they can learn and live up to their full potential. https://t.co/5J08lbzWZg — PolitiTweet.org

Just toured the new headquarters of the @WHAuthority and met with some of the dedicated people who care for the housing needs of thousands of families in Worcester, assist in vaccinations, and deliver meals to the hungry. I remain their partner in guaranteeing housing as a right. https://t.co/F9Rpr7uYW3 — PolitiTweet.org

We are seeing cheaper, faster, and further reaching internet access in Western Massachusetts thanks to the leadership in Greenfield, partnerships with Local Linx, and soon billions of dollars in new funding for broadband infrastructure and assistance. https://t.co/fssFW0iRFm — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Walking with @MonteBelmonte, @RepMcGovern, and dozens of #MontesMarch supporters today to end hunger and help raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for @FoodBankWMA. Thank you Monte for leading this effort year after year. https://t.co/gj2eChWJhh — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We have a moral obligation to ensure that families have the resources they need in order to take care of their children. Already, over a million children in Massachusetts, have benefited from these payments. We've seen the evidence. Now we must ensure the payments continue. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Earlier this month, I joined my colleagues in calling on the Biden admin to take such action to address oil companies’ push to raise gas prices. But this is just one step. Now, we must also pass Build Back Better and end our dependence on fossil fuels. https://t.co/mdSGjN7Dgi — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The Biden admin is taking effective action to protect Americans from oil price gouging. This is what reserves are for — defending our economy against disruption. Profiteering can’t go unanswered, especially as Big Oil makes billions and fuels the climate crisis through exports. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Being a parent is a full-time job and families across the country need and deserve support. Today, I joined @The_BMC to call on Congress to extend the Child Tax Credit before it expires at the end of the year (and then make it permanent). https://t.co/nL9jB9wb8p — PolitiTweet.org

Today, @MayorWu signed an ordinance to divest Boston city funds from the fossil fuel industry. This is what a Green New Deal city looks like. https://t.co/aIuw5vKKiW — PolitiTweet.org

Despite Facebook’s public commitments, new research suggests teens on Facebook’s platforms are *still* subject to invasive and harmful ad targeting. Big Tech can’t be trusted to self-regulate. Congress must pass legislation to protect kids and teens online. https://t.co/UtfeyjhvLy — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Enhanced Child Tax Credit payments have lifted 3.5 million children out of poverty—helping families recover, put food on the table, and keep a roof over their heads. Join me live at @The_BMC as we call for the extension of these critical payments. https://t.co/1x8BwEY8zv — PolitiTweet.org

On Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honor lives lost to anti-trans violence over the past year. We must act in solidarity with the transgender and non-binary community as co-conspirators in their pursuit of joyous lives, free from transphobia and hate. #TDOR https://t.co/eyyPOnbeSh — PolitiTweet.org

With my amendments to the NDAA, the U.S. can reduce the role of nuclear weapons and the threat of nuclear war. We cannot follow the recklessness of the military-industrial complex that cheered on the Cold War arms race and endless wars in the Middle East. https://t.co/cv1QLVRFl4 — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We know that Facebook and Instagram's business model is harmful on young people and I'm glad that @MassAGO is leading the way to find out if it is criminal. Facebook needs to be held accountable and Congress needs to regulate this behavior to protect kids and teens online. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

By passing the Build Back Better Act, the House just gave the Senate an historic opportunity. It is truly ours to either pass or fail, and we simply cannot fail. We need to hammer out the details and get this to President Biden's desk by Christmas. Time is of the essence. — PolitiTweet.org

.@CommonSense's new report proves what parents could already sense: left to its own devices, Big Tech will sacrifice children's privacy for profit every time. Hoping for self-regulation is not working. We need to pass a privacy bill of rights for children and teens. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

A $768 billion Pentagon budget will not protect us from climate chaos. Increasing military spending as we watch increasing temperatures is not simply ineffective, it is immoral. My amendment will redirect DoD funds toward addressing our greatest security threat: climate change. https://t.co/wmhyLg70be — PolitiTweet.org

To the family of Sgt. Johanny Rosario, my wish is that this honor provides some solace while we continue to grieve her loss. She will be forever remembered in Massachusetts and across the country for her service to this nation and her efforts to protect the people of Afghanistan. — PolitiTweet.org
