After decades of redlining and disinvestment, low-income communities have on average 25% less critically important tree cover to lower temperatures. As extreme heat scorches North America this week, it’s clear that the climate crisis is an equity crisis. https://t.co/p7kdAZs4Hq — PolitiTweet.org

Violence, hatred, and anti-Semitism have no place in the Commonwealth, and we must do everything we can to ensure Massachusetts is always a welcoming and safe place for every person, no matter their background or beliefs. — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S.-Russia statement in Geneva that “a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought” is positive. I joined my colleagues to call on @POTUS and Vladimir Putin to match words with deeds by taking bold steps in future talks to reduce these weapons of annihilation https://t.co/QIJpF99Wy7 — PolitiTweet.org

Arms control can’t be tread on like it was under Trump. We don’t have decades of negotiating experience with China as we do with Russia, but we should seek transparency and confidence building steps that reduce the risk of a war. — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

We must respond to this latest news from China with diplomacy – including bold U.S. steps with both China and Russia. Humanity and our taxpayers can’t afford a 21st century arms race. — PolitiTweet.org

Holding accountable gun dealers who engage in illegal sales practices is a key component of any strategy to reduce the senseless gun violence. By increasing inspections and penalties, we can decrease the number of guns falling into the hands of those who should not have them. https://t.co/wDakqpdSYm — PolitiTweet.org

Today’s ruling is another blow to voting rights. We have no time to waste to protect the right to vote. We must abolish the filibuster and pass the For the People Act and John Lewis Voting Rights Act. And we must expand the Supreme Court. — PolitiTweet.org

Even during a pandemic, Tenet Healthcare put profits over its patients and workers. While furloughing staff and delaying benefits, Tenet executives enriched themselves with CARES Act funds.

As President Biden signed our resolution to reject Trump’s methane rollback, we took the first steps to curb immediate global warming, save lives, and show the world that the U.S. is ready to once again lead in combatting the climate crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

I urge the Biden administration and @SecBlinken to determine whether the crimes committed against the Rohingya by the Burmese military constitute genocide. Congress must pass my Rohingya Genocide Determination Act to ensure we call these horrific crimes what they were—genocide. — PolitiTweet.org

Kids and teens deserve privacy protections online no matter where they live. While I continue to work to pass a strong privacy law through Congress, we're urging the major tech companies to extend the UK’s privacy protections to American users. https://t.co/oj6u6msqab — PolitiTweet.org

The @YMCASpringfield is home to some amazing students, teachers and leaders. It’s a foundation of this community, and the American Rescue Plan helped keep its doors open. We had a great morning reading “Vote for Minnie” about how Minnie won her campaign to become club president. https://t.co/6AP5ysaBVt — PolitiTweet.org

Extreme heat, drought, and wildfires are battering America right now. The climate crisis is here. These aren’t even half measures—they’re fractions of what we need. No climate, no deal. https://t.co/VzCEmFM5bl — PolitiTweet.org

The Department of Transportation needs to force the airlines to do the right thing. https://t.co/oavCWtCWxw — PolitiTweet.org

If you canceled a flight during the pandemic, you deserve a cash refund. At a minimum, your flight credits should never expire. But the airlines have refused to do the right thing, so we’re asking @SecretaryPete to step in and protect travelers. https://t.co/GMefxiN1eu — PolitiTweet.org

Massachusetts has some of the most effective gun violence prevention laws on the books, and not coincidentally, the lowest gun death rate in the country. The MASS Act will help incentivize other states to adopt Massachusetts’s life-saving gun safety laws as their own. https://t.co/CoyvwYRxpf — PolitiTweet.org
