The Senate just passed the American Rescue Plan bringing our country one step closer to providing an urgent & historic investment in the health & financial stability of millions around the country, a boost to our small businesses, and a lifeline to state & local governments. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
Even before the pandemic, millions of Americans, especially low-income communities & communities of color, were slipping deeper into the trap of poverty & debt. Expanding the Child Tax Credit & EITC as a part of the American Rescue Plan will be lifelines for struggling families. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
The American Rescue Plan will: ✅ Send struggling families long overdue relief ✅ Increase vaccination distribution ✅ Help safely reopen schools ✅ Extend unemployment ✅ Help small businesses ✅ Provide assistance for state and local governments Let’s get this done. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
The tax credit expansion in the American Rescue Plan could do more to eliminate child poverty than anything we’ve done in generations & lift millions in the middle class. That’s why @SenSherrodBrown @SenatorBennet @SenatorWarnock & I are doing everything we can to get this done. — PolitiTweet.org

On this day in 1933, Frances Perkins became Secretary of Labor under FDR and the first woman appointed to the US Cabinet. During her 12 years of service, she pushed for bold labor reforms including a minimum wage, maximum workweek, and the Social Security Act. #WomensHistoryMonth https://t.co/CEGtCGolrz — PolitiTweet.org

The House just passed the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act. Discriminatory policing & excessive force used against communities of color must end. I’m looking forward to working with my colleagues to get comprehensive policing reform done in the Senate & signed into law. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
.@StateDept should look more like the country it represents. Today, I introduced a bill with @SenatorTimScott that would allow the Department to pay its interns, allowing it to recruit diverse talent. Grateful for @PayOurInterns for their work. https://t.co/XEHfcSgRZj — PolitiTweet.org

As a result of the USDA’s racist practices over the last century, Black farmers have been robbed of millions of acres of land in our country. This discrimination must end & we need to enact policies to cultivate the next generation of Black farmers.https://t.co/eS4FwAfWuD — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
It’s past time we make meaningful strides toward closing the racial wealth gap in this country. Baby bonds can help get this done. https://t.co/qTFhS01RZl — PolitiTweet.org

One of the most effective ways to reduce gun violence is to enact universal background checks legislation. This critical bill will save lives—it’s long past time Congress acts. — PolitiTweet.org

We can’t have social justice or economic justice if we don’t have environmental justice. Grateful that the Biden Administration is committed to working to end these injustices and protect our most vulnerable. https://t.co/ptjfBPOxwz — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
Wealth inequality deprives our kids of opportunities to achieve upward mobility. Baby Bonds can help level the playing field—with these investments, kids growing up in the poorest households would have nearly $50,000 on their 18th birthday to pay for school, a home & more. https://t.co/dTMB78Ywro — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
Children who grow up in households that can't afford the basics can have problems with brain development, lower educational attainment, worse health outcomes & more. Expanding the Child Tax Credit would help lift millions of kids out of poverty. https://t.co/noh5xseUlg — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
In order for our country to heal & move forward we must confront our nation’s dark history of slavery and systemic racism. Proud to work with @RepBarbaraLee on an effort that would create the first U.S. Commission on Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation. https://t.co/j8ooJMbG3e — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
We can’t address systemic racism & white supremacy that have oppressed generations of Black Americans if we don’t examine our painful legacy of slavery. Congress must pass #HR40—our bill to create a commission to study & develop reparations proposals. https://t.co/aReEwXuxXb — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
On this first day of #WomensHistoryMonth I’m celebrating Shirley Chisholm—the first Black woman elected to Congress, and both the first woman and African American to seek the nomination of a major political party for President of the United States. https://t.co/6jTRrhITw0 — PolitiTweet.org

US diplomats around the world should reflect America in all its diversity. I’m grateful for the leadership of @SecBlinken who followed through on our conversation during his nomination hearing to create the new position of chief diversity officer at State.https://t.co/3W8GrZtXQa — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
It’s been 3 years since the House passed bipartisan background checks legislation. America has a gun death rate 11 times that of other high-income countries—this is unacceptable. We are not powerless to stop this. The Senate must vote on #HR8 to save lives. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
One year ago today, the House made history passing the Emmett Till Anti-lynching Act—a bill that would make lynching a federal crime. Our Senate bill needs a vote. After over 100 years and 200 attempts by Congress, this critical legislation must become law. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
Our country’s painful legacy of housing discrimination has contributed to the racial wealth gap that we must address. Please watch this powerful video featuring the heroic Ms. Lee Porter who helped my family move into our NJ childhood home 50 years ago. https://t.co/FMQ4WghFLc — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker
No one should face discrimination for who they are or who they love. Grateful that the House voted to pass the #EqualityAct to protect and uplift the rights of LGBTQ people. The Senate must now do the same. — PolitiTweet.org
