Proud to receive an “A” score from End Citizens United Action Fund for my efforts to strengthen our democracy & reform govt to make it work for the people it serves. I’ll continue to work with my colleagues to make govt more accountable & transparent. https://t.co/qkbWByl650 https://t.co/7jcuE8A9bq — PolitiTweet.org

If the GOP's #ACA lawsuit succeeds, rural areas will be left behind. The ACA’s Medicaid expansion has helped keep many rural hospitals open, and the law has also provided critical resources to combat the opioid crisis. I’ll continue to fight to defend the ACA and #ProtectOurCare. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump Admin is working to deny relief to student borrowers who were defrauded by predatory schools. Today, the House voted to #StandWithStudents & ensure debt relief is not blocked for those who should receive it. I thank @EdLaborCmte & @RepSusieLee for working on this issue. https://t.co/UAREvkm9zJ — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

When the House passed the articles of impeachment against POTUS, I urged my colleagues to summon the courage to #DefendOurDemocracy. Having taken their oath, I urge each senator to summon the courage to honor their oaths, to "do impartial justice," to set country above party. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I urge senators to take seriously their oath to act impartially in judging whether this president has abused the power of his office by placing his own personal and political interests ahead of the nation’s and obstructing Congress in order to cover it up. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

GAO’s confirmation that POTUS violated the law, the admission by Lev Parnas last night, & the release of new documents add to the growing body of evidence that, for this president, the law holds no power, the Constitution has no weight. https://t.co/KS5qXKgAnq — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

No American should face discrimination in the workplace. I was proud to bring #HR1230 to the House Floor yesterday to #ProtectOlderWorkers in #MD and across the country from age discrimination. I urge Senator McConnell to take up this important legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

When we return from the district work period, the House will vote on an emergency supplemental for #PuertoRico to provide assistance as the island recovers from earthquakes. House Dems are proud to stand with #OurFellowAmericans & help them recover & rebuild stronger than before. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Disappointed to hear that the Prince George's Sentinel will publish its final paper on Jan. 30. For decades, the dedicated staff has reported on the issues that matter to our community. I thank them for the work they have done to inform Marylanders. https://t.co/fD5lqtfi2I — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I congratulate Virginia state lawmakers on passage of the Equal Rights Amendment. I strongly support legislation in the House, and I am working with the House Judiciary Committee to bring it to the Floor for a vote soon. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The last decade has been the hottest ever, & this #ClimateCrisis deserves urgent action. Dems have held over 120 hearings & passed the #ClimateActionNow Act & additional legislation to respond. I look fwd to working on additional bills to #ActOnClimate. https://t.co/3ru95uQAwx — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

While the GOP is working to strike down the #ACA and force seniors to pay more for their prescription drugs, House Democrats are working to bring down Rx drug prices. We passed the #LowerDrugCosts Now Act last month and continue to call on the GOP-led Senate to take it up. https://t.co/CTxLNxxBdB — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Proud the House passed the Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act today with bipartisan support to ensure that victims of age discrimination in the workplace can enforce their rights. I hope the Senate will take up and pass this bipartisan bill #ForThePeople. #POWADA https://t.co/ZvN1EtOmTc — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

House Dems will also continue to call on the President to approve the Governor’s request for a major disaster declaration following the recent earthquakes. I urge the President to end his foot dragging and help our fellow Americans immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

While POTUS released some of the aid Congress appropriated for #PuertoRico, much remains in limbo. Dems will continue to work to ensure all appropriated funds reach #OurFellowAmericans & that the Administration’s barriers do not further delay funds. https://t.co/LcbZDaC1Ub — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Hate-based violence should not be tolerated in this country, & the rise in anti-Semitic violence should alarm all of us. I appreciate that @HomelandDems are holding a hearing on this issue today. We are united in condemning anti-Semitism. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The evidence that was released last night was disturbing and is consistent with what we know: POTUS abused the power of his office to benefit himself politically. The American people deserve a fair, impartial trial in the Senate, & the Senate should demand all relevant documents. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Today, the House passed a resolution to name impeachment managers & transmit articles. I trust each of the appointed managers will continue to #DefendOurDemocracy. The Senate now has a choice to honor their oath to do “impartial justice” or continue the #TrumpCoverup. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

House Dems are focused on the urgent threat posed by the climate crisis. I thank @HouseScience for bringing in experts today to discuss the urgency of #ClimateActionNow. We will continue to work together to #ActOnClimate. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Thank you @HouseScience for bringing in experts today who are discussing the urgency for #ClimateActionNow. House Democrats will continue to push climate change legislation that address the serious threat global warming has on communities around the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

The federal government must work with state and local governments to serve the American people. Thanks to @HouseBudgetDems for its hearing to examine how the federal budget affects the operations of state and local governments. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I thank @HouseSmallBiz for holding a hearing today on expanding patent diversity so that more Americans, including women, minorities, and veterans, have access to patent protection. Innovation is critical to ensuring more of our people can #MakeItInAmerica. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Glad to welcome @AACoFD Chief Trisha Wolford to Capitol Hill. As Chair of the Congressional Fire Services Caucus, I’m very focused on ensuring fire departments have the resources they need. I look forward to working with Chief Wolford & thank her for her leadership in #MD05. https://t.co/5NIsvZTX2n — PolitiTweet.org

RT @RepAdamSchiff: Today, we take the next step to #DefendOurDemocracy, sending articles of impeachment to the Senate. McConnell will hav… — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Despite what @POTUS has claimed, he has taken steps to undermine protections for those with pre-ex conditions. Dems have passed legislation to protect those w pre-ex conditions & lower health care costs, & we’ll continue to fight to #ProtectOurCare. https://t.co/JTDpjURZDY — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

We cannot ignore the housing crisis in this country. I commend @FSCDems for holding a hearing today on solutions to address this issue and ensure more families in America can access affordable, safe housing. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

10 years after #CitizensUnited, House Dems are calling on @senatemajldr to allow a vote on #HR1, the #ForThePeople Act. The bill would undo the worst effects of Citizens United and make America more open, democratic, free, and responsive to its citizens. https://t.co/nGFA6SwXPs https://t.co/rIewhbutzA — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

Prior to the #ACA, women were often charged more than men for the same coverage. With their partisan lawsuit, President Trump and Congressional Republicans are attempting to turn back the clock. RT if you agree we must #ProtectOurCare. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

If the GOP succeeds in striking down the #ACA through its partisan lawsuit, 2.3 million young people under the age of 26 will no longer be able to stay on their parents’ insurance. That’s unacceptable, & House Dems will continue to oppose this effort and work to #ProtectOurCare. — PolitiTweet.org

Steny Hoyer @RepStenyHoyer

I appreciate hearing about the issues that matter most to my constituents, & I will keep fighting in Congress to make their voices heard. If you couldn’t join us last night, please visit https://t.co/TC2Lf3c0iq to learn more about the work I’m doing in Washington on your behalf. — PolitiTweet.org
