We can do more to strengthen our gun safety laws and better protect law enforcement. When Congress reconvenes, these issues, such as strengthening background checks to keep guns out of the hands of violent criminals, should be a top priority. — PolitiTweet.org
Pat Toomey (US Sen. ret.) @SenToomey
In the coming weeks, more information will hopefully come to light on how the suspect obtained his weapons, and I have asked ATF and the Department of Justice to keep me apprised of any new information. — PolitiTweet.org

The shooter who attempted to murder brave Philadelphia police officers yesterday is a convicted felon who had no right to possess a firearm. — PolitiTweet.org

Kudos to @EPAAWheeler for easing the burden of the costly + environmentally-destructive ethanol mandate. It’s going to help PA refineries stay competitive and working toward USA energy independence. https://t.co/slWm815LyU — PolitiTweet.org

President @realDonaldTrump is spot on. Background checks will help to keep guns out of the hands of violent criminals & the dangerously mentally ill. @Sen_JoeManchin's & my bill does just that, while protecting the 2nd Amdt. rights of law abiding citizens. Let's get this done. — PolitiTweet.org

Encouraging remarks from @realDonaldTrump this AM. @Sen_JoeManchin & I are working w/ colleagues & the White House to pass our bipartisan bill that will extend background checks to better keep guns away from felons/mentally ill while protecting 2A rights of law abiding citizens. — PolitiTweet.org

In addition to expanding the scope of background checks, Congress should promptly pass the bipartisan NICS Denial Notification Act to ensure that state and local law enforcement are notified when someone prohibited from purchasing a gun attempts to do so. — PolitiTweet.org
Pat Toomey (US Sen. ret.) @SenToomey
.@ChrisCoons and I agree the only way to make necessary progress on improving the nation’s gun safety laws is through bipartisan action. Strengthening our firearm background check system is an area where this is possible. — PolitiTweet.org
Pat Toomey (US Sen. ret.) @SenToomey
3/3 Mass shootings and violent gun crimes are tragic American problems. It is past time for Congress to take action and the Manchin-Toomey background check legislation represents an opportunity to make actual bipartisan progress to help keep Americans safe. — PolitiTweet.org

2/3 ...while respecting the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding gun owners and all Americans. The president showed a willingness to work with us on the issue of strengthening background checks. — PolitiTweet.org

Pat Toomey (US Sen. ret.) @SenToomey
I also agree with Senator Lindsey Graham that we should pass a bipartisan “red flag” measure that enables families and law enforcement to obtain a court order to keep guns away from dangerous individuals." — PolitiTweet.org
Pat Toomey (US Sen. ret.) @SenToomey
While no law will end mass shootings entirely, it's time for Congress to act to help keep our communities safer. We should start by passing bipartisan proposals such as my legislation with Senator Joe Manchin to expand background checks to all commercial firearm sales. — PolitiTweet.org
Pat Toomey (US Sen. ret.) @SenToomey
The mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton are the latest, horrific examples of the violent scourge that is gripping America. The perpetrators of these murders are cowards. We must do more to keep guns out of the hands of psychopaths. — PolitiTweet.org
Pat Toomey (US Sen. ret.) @SenToomey
What happened in El Paso today is a senseless and horrific tragedy. My thoughts are with the people of El Paso and I am grateful for the emergency responders who are and continue to be on the scene. — PolitiTweet.org

.@realDonaldTrump is right: China must stop allowing drug dealers to ship deadly fentanyl into our country. Let’s pass my and @SenDougJones Blocking Deadly Fentanyl Imports Act, which holds China accountable for being complicit in the fentanyl epidemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Great news to help you get through the hump day: American workers' wages are growing at a far faster pace than previously thought! "Employee compensation rose 4.5% in 2017 and 5% in 2018--some $4.4 billion and $87.1 billion more than previously reported." https://t.co/EfoFvbWvDu — PolitiTweet.org

No current or future POTUS should be able to unilaterally remake trade policy. The Constitution puts that power in Congress, which has delegated far too much authority to the exec. Time to pass my bipartisan bill reasserting Congress’ proper role on trade: https://t.co/d5zbRoAODx — PolitiTweet.org

China is trying to mislead the world. Pennsylvanians with detained family members in China tell me they have not been released. These human rights violations are abhorrent and must stop. https://t.co/SoJN1Dff1r — PolitiTweet.org

Chinese authoritarianism threatens Hong Kongers' rights to free speech, a fair trial, & representative government. I'm backing @marcorubio's bipartisan bill reaffirming that the U.S. stands with Hong Kongers in their struggle for freedom. https://t.co/1EtqYPshfD — PolitiTweet.org

The ill-conceived RFS forces U.S. motorists to buy billions of gallons of corn ethanol yearly. This federal mandate drives up the price of gas & food, damages engines, & harms the environment. I hope my colleagues will join my & @SenFeinstein's effort. https://t.co/lxcmZYipC2 — PolitiTweet.org
