Wishing a happy birthday to my good friend @RepAndyLevin 🏒. As a longtime organized labor advocate, Andy has continued to put the needs of workers first as Vice Chair of @EdLaborCmte especially as millions face unemployment from this pandemic. I thank him for his work. — PolitiTweet.org

I urge local law enforcement to bring those responsible for this heinous act to justice. Hate has no place in Southern Maryland. https://t.co/wwLN5QAoYZ — PolitiTweet.org

The racist graffiti painted on the Calvert High School football field over the weekend is disgusting and abhorrent. This act of hate and bigotry in our community is horrific, and cannot be condemned strongly enough. — PolitiTweet.org

This crisis has pushed millions to the brink of eviction & due to long-standing discrimination, Black & Latino communities are at greater risk of experiencing housing insecurity. These families need more than an ineffective executive order, they need the #HeroesAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I applaud @UofMaryland for putting students, staff, and faculty first. The decision to gradually reopen campus prioritizes the health and safety of the university community. It will take all of us, working together, to defeat this virus. https://t.co/fqB011EcVl — PolitiTweet.org

America needs Republicans to pass the #HeroesAct to extend enhanced unemployment assistance. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I announced the September schedule for the House of Representatives. As we continue to confront this pandemic, the Democratic-led House will keep getting our work done #ForThePeople. https://t.co/rAnP1wTCda — PolitiTweet.org

30 million Americans have lost expanded unemployment assistance since Senate Republicans hit pause on responding to the coronavirus pandemic. The American people are suffering. Republicans must come back to the negotiating table. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Trump's latest effort to undermine the #2020Census would disproportionately harm communities of color. A full and accurate count for the Census is crucial to ensuring every community receives the federal funding it deserves. https://t.co/zcU7r7BySn — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

It hasn’t and it won’t. It’s time for Republicans to return to negotiations and provide actual relief for families. https://t.co/E6U4yGFn5X — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

It is heartbreaking that over 400k MD children live in a home that is behind on rent, isn’t getting enough to eat, or both. The #HeroesAct provided critical assistance to address food & housing insecurity. It’s shameful the GOP continues to block this aid. https://t.co/fsO9VGVZF5 — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

.@HouseBudgetDems released an important report today about what’s at stake for working families and our economy after the GOP allowed enhanced unemployment assistance to expire. We must reach agreement now to ensure Americans can make ends meet. — PolitiTweet.org

Today @MarylandConnection announced a new open enrollment period for uninsured Marylanders. Through December 15, visit https://t.co/fms3GtodjV to find a plan that works for you & #GetCovered. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I continue to urge Republicans to stop ignoring the crisis confronting us. They must work with us to reach an agreement now to restore vital assistance. House Democrats will not abandon the working people of this country. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

While I am relieved the unemployment rate fell slightly in July, there is little to celebrate. At 10.2%, it is still above the worst month of the Great Recession & the pace of job gains slowed again last month. We are still a long way from a full recovery. https://t.co/sKI3Ws7S9l — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I hope House Republicans will now join Democrats in using voting by proxy, when necessary, so that Congress can continue to do its work while preventing the spread of COVID-19 in our districts and on Capitol Hill. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

A federal court has affirmed what was already clear from our Constitution: the House has the right to determine its own rules, including the allowance of proxy voting as an emergency measure during this pandemic. https://t.co/JnHuv0KRJ3 — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

As we mark the 55th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, House Dems will never stop fighting to restore the law's protections & expand access to the ballot box. I urge the Senate to take up & pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act to #RestoreTheVote. https://t.co/g4t5mX0wir https://t.co/aNxa1mf7Vi — PolitiTweet.org

Americans need assistance to get through this crisis, but the Senate sat on its hands for over two months instead of taking up the #HeroesAct. There is no walking away from the American people. We need to reach an agreement to meet their needs this week. https://t.co/vAsjGwDIIp — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

One week ago, we laid our beloved colleague John Lewis to rest. It was so typical of John’s commitment & hope for his country that on the day of his funeral he urged all of us to continue the #goodtrouble. My reflections in @TIMEIdeas on serving with him: https://t.co/6BIPYXucUJ — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The Senate GOP's decision to allow enhanced UI to expire is hurting millions of American families and our economy. This assistance helped make ends meet, and if Americans can't pay rent or other bills, it will have "cascading effects" for the economy. https://t.co/A031SRBT6W — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Millions of families need this critical lifeline to make ends meet. House Dems passed the #HeroesAct to extend this assistance 12 weeks ago. As negotiations continue on the next coronavirus relief package, Republicans must consider the urgent economic needs of American families. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

With another 1.2 million new weekly UI claims filed, we are witnessing 20 weeks of over one million new claims, something that has never happened even once before. This week, 31 million Americans were cut off from enhanced unemployment assistance because of GOP obstruction. — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing my friend and a fighter for #PA18, @USRepMikeDoyle, a happy birthday today. Thanks for your work on @EnergyCommerce to develop an energy strategy to #ActOnClimate and create green jobs, expand access to broadband internet, and ensure more people can #MakeItInAmerica. — PolitiTweet.org
