Over 1 MILLION kids in Colorado received the December #ChildTaxCredit payment. For those kids and the 60 million others across the country who are benefiting from the CTC, we cannot stop fighting to extend it. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m disappointed in this decision. We need to bring certainty to the millions of DREAMers, TPS holders, and farm and essential workers who call this country home. We must remain committed to getting a pathway to citizenship over the finish line. https://t.co/h32oDMJSsI — PolitiTweet.org

We have lost over 10,000 Coloradans to COVID-19 since the start of this pandemic. My heart goes out to their families and loved ones this holiday season. To prevent further loss of life, please get vaccinated and get boosted as soon as you are eligible. — PolitiTweet.org

I've seen the Senate in chaos at the end of the year when tax cuts for rich people were expiring — and nobody had trouble figuring out how to extend them. That's the least we could do for the 61 million American kids now benefiting from the Child Tax Credit. — PolitiTweet.org

.@KatyTurNBC asked me if I've lost faith in the system. John Lewis sacrificed his skull to billy clubs on the Edmund Pettus Bridge for the sake of our democracy. Women fought for the self-evident right to vote for over 100 years. We're not entitled to lose faith. https://t.co/3KPkq9KHkA — PolitiTweet.org

Joining @KatyTurNBC soon to discuss the urgent need to extend the #ChildTaxCredit and pass voting rights. Tune in on @MSNBC. — PolitiTweet.org

Coloradans confront the effects of climate change every day — from wildfires to drought to lower snowpack in our mountains. They expect us to rise to the moment, pass #BuildBackBetter, and make the largest climate investment in U.S. history. — PolitiTweet.org

The November #ChildTaxCredit payment kept 3.8 MILLION kids out of poverty. 3.8 MILLION kids. That's who we're fighting for. https://t.co/tgvtewDEF6 — PolitiTweet.org

The last thing we should do is raise taxes on working people. The last thing we should do is double childhood poverty. The last thing we should do is raise childhood hunger in this country. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, December #ChildTaxCredit payments are beginning to reach families in Colorado and across the country. I'm joining @SRuhle on @MSNBC this hour to discuss the urgent need to pass #BuildBackBetter and extend this benefit for millions of families. — PolitiTweet.org

For Amberly from Alamosa County, the #ChildTaxCredit payments have been "like heaven." The extra income has helped her cover rent and provide for her kids. We must pass #BuildBackBetter to extend the CTC, ensuring families like Amberly's continue to receive payments in January. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

🚨I'm joining @timkaine, @SenBooker, @SenSherrodBrown, and @SenCortezMasto on the Senate floor to call for an extension of the #ChildTaxCredit. To ensure families continue to receive their payments in January, we must pass #BuildBackBetter ASAP. Tune in: https://t.co/cmXncQlprz — PolitiTweet.org

Today, my thoughts are with the Newtown community as we remember the 20 children & 6 educators killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School. 9 years after this horrific tragedy, our kids still live in fear of gun violence. The Senate must act to keep our families and communities safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Cutting taxes for the wealthiest Americans at a time of record income inequality is the opposite of what people elected us to do. Yet the House’s SALT proposal does just that. We’re working to fix this in the Senate. https://t.co/sM1XbGozq0 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

The changes we made to the #ChildTaxCredit in the American Rescue Plan have helped more than 1 million kids in Colorado. We must do everything we can to extend this tax cut for families. #BuildBackBetter https://t.co/astFkGa7ec — PolitiTweet.org

The @HRC & @SAGEUSA released a critically important guide to help LGBTQ elders find safe and welcoming long-term care communities. This is a great step toward ensuring older LGBTQ Americans receive the best care — something @SenatorBaldwin and I called for earlier this year. — PolitiTweet.org

From leading the first ever all-woman formation of the F-22 aircraft in combat to her expertise in Russian and mathematics, Nichole Ayers is one incredible Coloradan. As a part of @NASA's newest class of astronauts, she's leading the way for young Coloradans. Congrats, Nichole! — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

BREAKING: The #ChildTaxCredit supports entrepreneurs and small businesses. The extra cash helps families cover child care costs so that they can spend a little bit more time growing their business. The bottom line: the expanded CTC is good for families AND good for our economy. — PolitiTweet.org

This week, I had the opportunity to meet with my office's outstanding interns. They have done phenomenal work in both Colorado and Washington over the past few months. I look forward to seeing all that they accomplish! https://t.co/moTq7vfDx5 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

.@RepGolden is absolutely right. The Child Tax Credit is one of the most progressive changes to our tax code in generations. That's what we ought to be fighting for — not the SALT deduction. https://t.co/hIyI7oihlK — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden's #SummitForDemocracy was vitally important. At a time when authoritarianism is on the rise both at home and across the globe, free societies must come together to support each other and hold one another accountable when we fall short of our shared ideals. — PolitiTweet.org

SCOTUS just left the cruel Texas abortion ban in place. We cannot stand idly by while #RoeVWade gets chipped away. Congress must protect reproductive rights and pass the Women’s Health Protection Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Marissa from Denver has used her #ChildTaxCredit payments to pay for daycare this year. Families like Marissa's across the country are using the CTC to cover the growing cost of raising kids. We must ensure these critical payments continue by passing #BuildBackBetter this month. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Grateful to @POTUS for convening the #SummitForDemocracy. Democracy isn't perfect, but I strongly believe that it remains one of the highest expressions of humanity: the ideal that people from all walks of life can decide, together, on our common future. — PolitiTweet.org
