Here's what we know about the current Build Back Better deal: $555 billion for climate justice is in. A non-exhaustive thread. -A Civilian Climate Corps that will employ 300,000+ -Billions of $$$ deployed for clean projects via a climate bank -Environmental justice mapping 1/5 — PolitiTweet.org

Climate action is in the Build Back Better deal because a movement of mobilized young people showed up at the polls last year and they continue to push leaders to be as ambitious as possible. Now we must seal the deal and carry this fight forward for their future. https://t.co/rIm17D4rkz — PolitiTweet.org

Kellogg's profits grew 25% in 2020 while its workers, whose labor generated that profit, were on the frontlines of a deadly pandemic. We stand in solidarity with the Kellogg workers who are striking for the better pay and working conditions that they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

The Pulse Nightclub shooter spent $26k to amass an arsenal of weapons in the days before the shooting. The movie theater shooter in Aurora spent $11k on guns, grenades, and body armor prior to the attack. My bill will help financial institutions pinpoint and prevent gun violence. https://t.co/OTTVZxWonc — PolitiTweet.org

The bipartisan Secure Equipment Act will keep compromised equipment out of U.S. telecommunications networks and ensure our technology is safe for consumers and secure for the United States. https://t.co/094WBStyGV — PolitiTweet.org

An agreement is within reach, but there is still more work to be done to hammer out the details of the President’s agenda. I'll be on MSNBC with @GarrettHaake at the top of the 1pm ET hour to talk climate and the Build Back Better framework. Tune in. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I stand in solidarity with Harvard graduate students striking for a fair agreement with the university that addresses harassment, discrimination, fair pay for their work, and the security of their union. Workers organizing with @hgsuuaw are right and their demands must be met. — PolitiTweet.org

This week, USCP arrested someone with a loaded ghost gun outside the Capitol grounds. Ghost guns evade detection and background checks and pose a serious risk to public safety. Congress should pass the Untraceable Firearms Act and close the ghost gun loophole for good. — PolitiTweet.org

Facebook wants us to start calling it Meta, but we’re just going to keep calling it what it is, a threat to privacy, democracy, and children. https://t.co/3bG7CxgOEV — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

As I told the FTC, powerful technology companies must keep their word and be honest with their users. Facebook has consistently failed to meet that standard and they need to be held accountable. That's what @RepLoriTrahan and @USRepKCastor and I aim to do. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

I trust the President. Americans need an infrastructure bill AND the Build Back Better deal. We can hammer out the key details on climate and family investments, and we can do it fast. Let’s do that so we can vote for both bills at the same time. https://t.co/Hbj7qWAgoQ — PolitiTweet.org

We must stop Facebook and Big Tech from tracking children and teens, and safeguard our kids from dangerous content. Children are uniquely vulnerable online, and our laws must reflect that with unique protections for kids. Regulation works. https://t.co/bEuXiwRwAI — PolitiTweet.org

Republican attacks on Rachael Rollins aren't based in reality. People in Massachusetts, even those who have disagreed with her, know that this is a political smear campaign and nothing more. @DARollins has an excellent record as a public servant and will make a great US Attorney. — PolitiTweet.org

On the third anniversary of the antisemitic Tree of Life Synagogue shooting, we mourn those 11 lives lost and stand firm in our commitment to confront hatred and dismantle white supremacy across our nation. — PolitiTweet.org

We are going to reschedule today’s conversation with @SenSchumer about the CCC—an incredibly important conversation—due to scheduling conflicts this afternoon. We’ll make it up to you, my promise. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Big Tech continues to prioritize profits over the health and safety of our children. This is a crisis. I’m live with @SenBlumenthal to say enough is enough and to call for urgent congressional action to protect children and teens online. https://t.co/uRoqcCG7KK — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Now is the time for jobs, justice, and climate action. Please join me and @SenSchumer live on Twitter Spaces today at 4:30PM for a conversation about the Civilian Climate Corps. https://t.co/WSfbB4ZZtr — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

As President Biden readies for the U.N. climate summit next week, we need the climate and environmental justice investments in the Build Back Better deal to move alongside the bipartisan infrastructure bill. Let’s be clear: No Climate, No Deal. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Adding four seats to the Supreme Court is how we restore legitimacy to it. Those who claim this is unprecedented or unconstitutional just don’t know their history. Congress has expanded the Court seven times before. It simply takes an act of Congress to get this done. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

The military coup against the transitional government in Sudan is an unacceptable violation of the will of the people of Sudan. The U.S. and our partners must put pressure on the military to return to civilian rule, release govt. officials, and halt violence against civilians. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Right now, a stolen, illegitimate, and far-right Supreme Court is responsible for making life-or-death decisions on issues from reproductive rights to voting rights. We cannot let Republicans’ theft of two SCOTUS seats go unanswered. We must expand the Court. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

This is what drives us crazy. Big Tech always says, “we want to talk, we want to talk, we want to talk.” Meanwhile they continue to profit from preying on kids and teens. This is a crisis. We need strong children’s privacy legislation NOW. https://t.co/PI92ba8kjX — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell stole two SCOTUS seats. It's time to abolish the filibuster, expand the Supreme Court by four seats, and restore balance. If we do not act now, they will come back for more. https://t.co/9cOMoeZTf2 — PolitiTweet.org

Great to see the FCC will soon have a Democratic majority. The first order of business: revive net neutrality and reclassify broadband under Title II. https://t.co/XNMZ86HKAt — PolitiTweet.org

But with more than $6 billion already requested, this vital fund could run dry before the end of the current school year. We cannot allow that to happen. We must provide additional E-Rate home connectivity dollars and keep this program going for our most vulnerable children. — PolitiTweet.org
