8 years ago, 12 innocent lives were taken in Aurora. 12 people full of life and aspirations, loved by family and friends, and remembered by an entire nation. Today, and always, we honor and remember them. — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to see strong bipartisan support for expanding the Child Tax Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit in the next #COVID19 relief package. This was common sense before the crisis, and is absolutely essential now, when so many families are struggling. https://t.co/5GawY7dzSK — PolitiTweet.org

In my conversations across Colorado last week, one message was consistent: Access to affordable, high-speed broadband has never been more urgent, and Washington needs to step up and make it a real priority in the next relief bill. — PolitiTweet.org

For 30 years, John Lewis continued to lead with moral courage in the House, where he was the conscience of Congress. His life is a reminder that nothing worth fighting for comes without “good trouble”. He will be sorely missed. My thoughts are with his family today. — PolitiTweet.org

He was dedicated to ensuring that every American had equal access to the ballot box and could exercise their protected right to shape our country’s future. — PolitiTweet.org

As a leader in the Civil Rights movement, he marched across the Jim Crow south, facing billy clubs, beatings, and jail for justice. — PolitiTweet.org

John Lewis was the best of us. He was a committed public servant who joins a legacy of American giants who put everything on the line to fulfill the promise of our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Every single line of the #COREAct reflects a decade of work by Coloradans–like those I hiked with this week–who made compromises to craft a bill that protects our public lands & boosts the economy. We owe it to our kids & grandkids to pass the CORE Act. https://t.co/xulK0kJPEM — PolitiTweet.org

Colorado knows smart clean energy policy. Glad to see this meritless effort to institute federal control over solar rooftop policy rejected, and grateful to all who joined us in pushing back. https://t.co/jopuo5Zsva — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

We need a #COVID19 relief package that extends unemployment benefits, supports the hardest-hit small businesses, and establishes a Health Force to expand our public health workforce. That's what I'll be calling for in Congress next week. https://t.co/OF7jYP5c0j — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I agree. The #RESTART Act is what we need to stand behind our hardest-hit businesses so they can weather the difficult months ahead and prevent temporary job losses from becoming permanent ones. — PolitiTweet.org

Live performers have taken a huge hit economically at a time when public health measures have made most performances impossible. It's essential we include our bipartisan #RESTART Act in the next relief package to ensure performing artists can sustain themselves until we recover. — PolitiTweet.org

@GovofCO When you wear your mask, you are not only protecting yourself and your neighbors, you are also protecting seniors and our most vulnerable communities, assisting Coloradans on the front lines, and keeping us on track to safely reopen our economy and return to school safely. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

@GovofCO As cases rise throughout the country, this order will give public health and law enforcement officials in Colorado the tools to keep our communities safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I strongly support the statewide mask order announced by @GovofCO today. This is a moment for all of us to do our part and take personal responsibility by wearing a mask to reduce the spread of #COVID19. My statement ⬇️https://t.co/lytf7pkSGU — PolitiTweet.org

Independent music venues were the first to close and will be the last to fully reopen. It’s our job to keep them afloat until they can do so safely. @SenToddYoung and I introduced the #RESTART Act to do just that. Read more here ⬇ https://t.co/DfO8JSyHaf — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we’re calling on Congress to pass my #RESTART Act with @SenToddYoung. We need this bill to #SaveOurStages & prevent thousands of independent venues from closing permanently due to #COVID19. Stay tuned as we call for action w/ venues, musicians & the entertainment industry. https://t.co/xhCS70WD19 — PolitiTweet.org

CO's public lands are crucial to our outdoor economy and way of life.

Yesterday we took a stunning hike up to Liberty Bell, which under the #COREAct would gain new protections as part of the Mt. Sneffels Wilderness Area. Years of work by Coloradans like these is how the CORE Act passed the House. Now, it's time for the Senate to act. https://t.co/GQPUYCn0WT — PolitiTweet.org
