If Senate Republicans want to keep us here all night to protect tax loopholes that let billion dollar corporations pay almost nothing in taxes, that's a fight I'm willing to have. — PolitiTweet.org

Every provision in the Inflation Reduction Act is a victory for common sense — from lowering drug prices to working toward energy independence. It's a victory for the American people over special interests and the status quo. I don’t know how anyone could be against it. https://t.co/dUzIspr93B — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a great weekend to lower health care costs for American families and make a historic investment to fight climate change. — PolitiTweet.org

For 57 years, the #VotingRightsAct has been a powerful reminder of the brave Americans who risked their lives for the right to vote. We owe it to them to strengthen the VRA for future generations. Let's get to work. — PolitiTweet.org

Last month, the Senate passed the CHIPS Act to drive down prices. Just this week, we passed the PACT Act for our veterans. Now, we're close to passing the Inflation Reduction Act to lower health care costs & put us on the path to energy independence. This is an amazing moment. https://t.co/wUPSibduAL — PolitiTweet.org

🚨@SenCortezMasto, @SenMarkKelly and I just secured $4B in the Inflation Reduction Act to address the drought ravaging the American West. With this funding, we can tackle this crisis in a way that reflects the interests of Colorado and the entire Colorado River Basin. — PolitiTweet.org

Delighted to welcome @USDA’s new grant program from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to help communities reduce wildfire risk as climate change drives more frequent and intense fires in Colorado. Learn more about the program on August 8 at 12 pm MT: https://t.co/O24JBUeSYm https://t.co/Qj9mUFKPEW — PolitiTweet.org

I'm speaking on the Senate floor to call for passage of the Inflation Reduction Act. Over my 13 years in the Senate, this has to be one of the most important pieces of legislation we’ve ever considered. Let's get it done. https://t.co/bB2PwjUCQB — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

The Inflation Reduction Act's historic climate & clean energy investments will cut US emissions by 40% by 2030. It will: >Accelerate solar & wind energy >Cut methane pollution >Support clean energy in rural communities >Ensure responsible oil & gas leasing Let's pass this ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org

The Inflation Reduction Act includes the largest investment we’ve ever made in climate. It requires Medicare to negotiate drug prices to lower costs. It will make health care more affordable. I'm incredibly excited about what this bill means for our country. https://t.co/sAQx0hNPJj — PolitiTweet.org

Today I voted to approve Finland & Sweden’s accession to NATO — a historic vote that passed with overwhelming bipartisan support. Putin’s lawless war in Ukraine has only strengthened our engagement with global democracies and the transatlantic alliance that keeps Americans safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Senate Republicans just blocked our bill to protect health care providers in states where abortion care is legal. We have to ensure providers can safely do their job and provide legal reproductive health care without fear of prosecution. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Three years ago, 23 lives were tragically taken during a hateful attack on the El Paso community. Today, we honor their memories. Every day, we must recommit to ending the scourge of gun violence in our country that has affected far too many of our communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

We just passed the PACT Act. After years of inaction from Washington, this bill represents the largest expansion of veteran health care benefits in decades. It’s the least we can do for the men and women that made sacrifices to keep us safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Today, I visited with the veterans and their loved ones who have been advocating for the PACT Act outside the Capitol since Senate Republicans blocked final passage last week. They are a huge reason why we're going to get this done for millions of veterans across the country. https://t.co/LyBwLAee8y — PolitiTweet.org

Great news: Communities now have more flexibility to use #AmericanRescuePlan funds to increase affordable housing. This is modeled on the LIFELINE Act, my bill to make sure Colorado communities can use every tool available to address our housing crisis. https://t.co/UZlhvm5EVV — PolitiTweet.org

As one of the world’s most wanted terrorists, Ayman al-Zawahiri spent decades planning horrific attacks against innocent civilians in the U.S. and across the globe. Grateful to the intelligence community professionals & servicemembers whose steadfast work brought him to justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Insulin prices are out of control. But through the Inflation Reduction Act, we can cap the price of insulin at $35 a month to lower costs for Coloradans living with diabetes. @SenatorWarnock is right — we have to get this done. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Birthday, Colorado. I can't think of a better way to celebrate 146 years than by visiting one of our state parks. Enjoy free admission today. #ColoradoDay 📸: @COParksWildlife https://t.co/tz75dOE4XC — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Washington has spent decades cutting taxes for the wealthiest Americans and exploding our deficit instead of making responsible choices for our future. The Inflation Reduction Act represents a historic break from those failed policies. Let's pass this bill. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Over 800,000 women who have served our country in the Armed Forces live in states where reproductive health care is now at-risk. We're calling on @DeptVetAffairs to ensure all veterans and their dependents can access the care that they need: https://t.co/Q4TGwpH1Z1 — PolitiTweet.org

Extreme wildfires and drought fueled by climate change have put Colorado’s grasslands at risk. I joined @RonWyden's bill to help Colorado partner with farmers, ranchers, landowners, and tribes to restore our native grasslands: https://t.co/5iMqv1sOrs — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Reproductive health choices should be left up to a woman and her doctor — not the government or her employer. But this week, Senate Republicans blocked our bill to guarantee the right to contraception. That is disgraceful. https://t.co/cjt9WPoYKN — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

China’s dominance in 5G is a threat to U.S. economic and national security. We passed funding this week for my bill with @MarkWarner and @SenRubioPress to invest in a secure U.S. approach to 5G. — PolitiTweet.org

I've seen a lot of dysfunction in Washington over the years. But I never thought I'd see the day Senate Republicans blocked a bill to protect millions of veterans suffering from toxic exposure. What a disgrace. We should bring it up again and again until it passes. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Here's just some of what the Inflation Reduction Act will do: 💊Lower prescription drug costs 🌎Make the largest ever climate & clean energy investment 💰Ensure the largest corporations pay their fair share 🌲 Invest in forest & watershed health ⬇️Cut the deficit This is huge. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we remember America's Buffalo Soldiers — members of all-Black Army regiments established in 1866. They served our country with honor and distinction, and their contributions to Colorado, the American West, and our nation are integral to our history. https://t.co/tULcNv40GA — PolitiTweet.org
