The @US_SpaceCom basing process lacked integrity & neglected national security considerations. The American people must be able to trust that this decision is objective & prioritizes our security. Peterson remains the only & best home for @US_SpaceCom. https://t.co/f1Nz8PDjAx — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, a gunman robbed the futures of 21 people — 19 kids. With one mass shooting after another, it's unacceptable that the Senate has failed to respond. Failed to protect our kids and communities. This #GunViolenceAwarenessMonth, the Senate must act to end gun violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Every #PrideMonth is an opportunity for us to celebrate the historic steps we have taken toward equality for the LGBTQ community. But as LGBTQ Americans continue to face discrimination and violence, we cannot ignore that there is more work to do. We must pass the #EqualityAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark your 🗓️! On June 7, I will chair the first hearing the Subcommittee on Conservation, Climate, Forestry, and Natural Resources has had since 2013. I look forward to joining Ranking Member @RogerMarshallMD to discuss solutions to drought affecting our farmlands and forests. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to the men and women in uniform who year after year put their health and safety at risk to serve our country. #MilitaryAppreciationMonth — PolitiTweet.org

31 people at Amache died in service to this country—the same country that incarcerated their families. They never gave up on America—and neither should we.   This #MemorialDay, we honor their bravery & all of our troops who have sacrificed to allow democracy to endure in America. https://t.co/RkCFKC2iN2 — PolitiTweet.org

ICYMI: @SenToomey and I introduced a bill to ensure police officers, firefighters, & all public safety officers can access their savings without penalties if they retire early. After serving our communities for years, this is the least that we can do. https://t.co/pNTpU0LqDm — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Yesterday, I joined @RepJasonCrow and @AuroraMayorMike to honor Coloradans who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. We can never forget the price our troops pay. #MemorialDay https://t.co/iCBFW8dPl7 — PolitiTweet.org

I cannot understand why the Biden Administration is continuing its harmful investigation into solar tariffs. You can’t say we want to rapidly deploy clean energy, and then stick a dagger in American solar. For Colorado's solar industry, @POTUS must end this investigation. https://t.co/uk7REqarPm — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

There’s no other country for which immigration is so central to its identity. People aren’t lining up to go to Russia or China. They want to come to America. That should fill us with pride. We can build an immigration system that honors our heritage AND upholds the rule of law. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Colorado is on the frontlines of climate change, and @ColoradoStateU leads the way on research and development to help us address it. They will use the $1M in funding we secured to increase soil carbon storage, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and help us meet our climate goals. https://t.co/MuJOt9cDjM — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Honored to attend today's ribbon cutting for the new @DeptVetAffairs outpatient clinic in Northern Colorado. From mental health to radiology, physical therapy, and dentistry services, this clinic is a one-stop shop for the kind of high-quality care our veterans earned. https://t.co/PFZDvCCXRT — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

We secured $1.5M to help @BGCLarimer establish a first of its kind child care and family services center. Not only will this expand access to child care and other family services in Larimer County — something that the community desperately needs — it will also create 15-20 jobs. https://t.co/7AGWzn60k4 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

During the @SenateAgDems hearing this week, I pressed @SecVilsack about the urgent need to address farm labor needs and pass meaningful immigration reform to support our farmers and farmworkers. I appreciate his support as I work on a bipartisan solution with @MikeCrapo. https://t.co/O2rzVIoKkC — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

As our country faces a housing crisis, we have to boost the supply of affordable housing. I led a bipartisan group of lawmakers with @SenToddYoung to call on @TREASURY & @IRSnews to swiftly finalize a new rule to expand affordable housing: https://t.co/JLpYBzWgGO — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

It's absurd that my Republican colleagues won’t allow us to debate this bill. This is common-sense legislation to protect our communities from domestic terrorism and future tragedies like the recent massacre in Buffalo. To save our democracy, we need to fix the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

This is a deeply difficult moment for our country. I encourage any Coloradan who is looking for support to reach out to Colorado Crisis Services. To share your reflections, you’re also always welcome to contact my office: https://t.co/2HCg9FfPZK — PolitiTweet.org

@POTUS’s actions today take a step forward, but there’s more Congress must do to ensure no one is denied justice or their own life because of what they look like. We can get there if we join together and recommit to justice & equal protection for all. https://t.co/I8FvJkNdTr — PolitiTweet.org

The murder of George Floyd by police reignited an overdue conversation about equality under the law. What happened to him would've never happened to me — and we know why. As a nation, we're far from our highest ideals, but that's our best reason to keep fighting for change. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I’m delighted that the Senate confirmed Charlotte Sweeney to serve on the U.S. District Court. From Charlotte's impressive credentials to her unwavering commitment to ensuring equality under the law, I’m confident she'll make an outstanding judge for the District of Colorado. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I gave this speech last year after a gunman killed 10 Coloradans in a grocery store. It pains me that these words are just as true today. We must do whatever we can to end the scourge of gun violence in America. There’s nobody else to act but the United States Senate. https://t.co/ud8mNgkwsj — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

14 kids and a teacher killed in Texas today. 10 Black Americans killed in New York 10 days ago. This horrific gun violence is uniquely American. We cannot become numb to it. We need to act and #EndGunViolence now. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Supporting American solar should top the list of ways to diversify our energy and protect our security. Instead, the Biden Administration has paralyzed the industry with its solar investigation. I’m calling on @POTUS to end this harmful investigation. https://t.co/AvqOaK0cHo — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I'm heading to the Senate floor to call for a swift end to @CommerceGov's solar tariff investigation, which has taken a sledgehammer to the solar industry in Colorado. This is the moment to build on Colorado’s solar progress, not undercut it. WATCH: https://t.co/cmXncQlprz — PolitiTweet.org

Last year, advance #ChildTaxCredit payments: ➡️Cut child poverty nearly in half ➡️Reduced hunger by a quarter ➡️Benefited 90% of kids in Colorado That seems like a great report to me. And that's why I'll do everything I can to make the expanded CTC permanent. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Year after year, Japanese Americans imprisoned at Amache held onto hope and forged a community behind the barbed wires. It's fitting that a symbol of their resilience will bloom once again just as we preserved Amache's story for future generations. https://t.co/bXCD7A8grK — PolitiTweet.org

In July, 988 will become the Suicide Prevention Lifeline across the country. I worked for years to make this happen to expand access to support as our mental and behavioral health crisis grows. For support in the meantime, dial 1-800-273-TALK. #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth — PolitiTweet.org

What an incredible feat. Congratulations to Coloradans Eddie Taylor and Thomas Moore, and all of the team members who made history on the summit of Mount Everest. You're paving the way for the next generation of climbers. https://t.co/6GhqwyKMI0 — PolitiTweet.org

It's simple — the #SAFEBankingAct allows legal cannabis businesses to use our banking system the same way any other business can. This is something @RepPerlmutter has led on for years. Let's get it done in the Bipartisan Innovation and Competition Bill. https://t.co/zOBcJgGl8x — PolitiTweet.org
