This poll reflects the toll the COVID-19 crisis has taken on African American communities & the disproportionate impact. House Dems continue to urge Senate passage of the #HeroesAct & will pass a bill to enhance the ACA & tackle racial health disparities. https://t.co/WWLaRlc2XG — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The Senate must take up #HR51 #ForThePeople in the District. Being denied voting rights is more than a local issue, it is a civil rights issue for our country. RT if you think the Senate should pass #DCStatehoodNow. https://t.co/s5B7zNxfND — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The people of DC deserve not only real self-government, but also full representation in the Congress of the United States. I am proud to have voted in favor of #DCstatehood today. https://t.co/t9PoSvyqbS — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The Trump Admin has left states to fend for themselves and continues to downplay the severity of COVID-19. With cases spiking across the country, the Admin and Senate Republicans cannot continue to delay assistance. We must enact the #HeroesAct now. https://t.co/kh96lEqXDa — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

House Democrats passed #HR51 today to admit the District of Columbia as a state. The people who call our nation's capital home have been disenfranchised and shortchanged for too long. The House is proud to stand alongside them in demanding #DCStatehoodNow. https://t.co/wSPbn7bHlr — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I was proud to preside over the historic House vote to grant #DCstatehood. I thank my friend @EleanorNorton for her great advocacy and work on this bill and all of my colleagues who joined us in standing up for democracy, equal rights, and equal representation for all Americans. https://t.co/tjqY4LZQQ4 — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The fight for full equality is not over. That’s why House Dems passed the #EqualityAct to ban discrimination against LGBTQ people where discrimination remains legal. Together, we will win the fight & ensure our laws recognize the equal rights & dignity of LGBTQ people. — PolitiTweet.org

5 years ago, SCOTUS recognized the truth that love is love & ruled in favor of marriage equality. This victory took perseverance & great effort by many, and today we celebrate this anniversary with great joy as we continue to celebrate Pride Month. https://t.co/x64m4vfcNX https://t.co/wX5jeRDUhl — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

#DCStatehood ought to concern all Americans because when some are denied the full rights and representation of citizenship, it diminishes the meaning of citizenship for all. I'm proud to bring #HR51 to the Floor & urge Members to vote for #DCStatehoodNow. https://t.co/3Xtj2iqgp5 — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Yesterday marked 7 years since SCOTUS took an axe to the Voting Rights Act. House Dems passed @RepSewell’s #HR4 to #RestoreTheVote, and we continue to urge the Senate to cease its delay & take up this bill. https://t.co/WJs5fcwi5r — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I thank @RepKarenBass and @theBlackCaucus for introducing the #JusticeInPolicing Act and @RepJerryNadler for moving swiftly to mark up the bill so that we could consider it on the Floor today. If the Senate does not take it up, it will be an egregious mistake and failure. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The House acted today to make clear #BlackLivesMatter; to ensure that we no longer see Black men & women being killed by those who are sworn to uphold the law; and to say we want justice for every American. https://t.co/xAqcIvpryr — PolitiTweet.org

On the 70th anniversary of the start of the Korean War, we remember and honor the Americans who lost their lives and were wounded defending freedom against communism and aiding in the defense of our Korean allies. https://t.co/p6nJg8jrkZ — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Tomorrow, the House will pass historic legislation to grant #DCstatehood. This is long overdue, not only for the representation and full self-governance of the District, but also for advancing a key civil rights issue in our country. https://t.co/4wamHgHeRj https://t.co/riHyw7R7I7 — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

As COVID-19 cases rise, state and local governments are being forced to lay off teachers, health care personnel, public service workers, and other frontline employees. Our communities can’t afford to wait. I urge the Senate to take up the #HeroesAct and #FundtheFrontLines now. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

There’s been a rapid acceleration in COVID-19 cases over just a few weeks. Americans should continue to wear their masks and social distance, & the Senate ought to take up the #HeroesAct to provide states with more resources to expand testing and tracing. https://t.co/8JyYsPwJHM — PolitiTweet.org

We must ensure Americans can safely vote in November. It is shameful to exploit this crisis and hinder voter turnout like some states have done. We must be prepared on Election Day, which is why I continue to call for Senate passage of the #HeroesAct. https://t.co/OjzpjoXYdN — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The George Floyd #JusticeInPolicing Act is supported by a broad range of organizations, including civil rights groups, labor, & mayors across the U.S. It includes major reforms that Americans are demanding & I urge Members of both parties to support it. https://t.co/Ycq58h0VZX — PolitiTweet.org
