On what would have been Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's 88th birthday, we remember her dedication to calling America closer to our best traditions of equality, liberty, and opportunity for all. It's on us to carry forward her legacy and live up to her example. #WomensHistoryMonth — PolitiTweet.org

I am deeply concerned about the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Ethiopia’s Tigray region and the growing reports of crimes against civilians. The Ethiopian government must help end the violence and allow humanitarian workers, human rights monitors, and journalists full access. — PolitiTweet.org

Historically, Americans with the lowest incomes have not been eligible for the Child Tax Credit. But through the expansion passed in the American Rescue Plan, 90% of kids in Colorado will now benefit. This will be a tremendous help to families across the country. https://t.co/tc6wf1W7SZ — PolitiTweet.org

No child chooses to be born poor, but growing up in poverty can shape a child’s future in ways that are deeply unfair. Read my op-ed in the @ColoradoSun about how we will cut childhood poverty in half through the American Rescue Plan. https://t.co/Ct5E0kt9yG — PolitiTweet.org

A report from @familiesUSA found a third of #COVID19 deaths are linked to health insurance gaps. This is unacceptable. We urgently need a public option like Medicare-X to help us achieve universal coverage in this country. https://t.co/rBJKccxM6O — PolitiTweet.org

Recently, @ChrisMurphyCT and I spoke with enrichment experts about how summer programming helps address kids’ academic, social, and emotional needs. The American Rescue Plan provides dedicated funding for school programs so our kids are prepared for the fall. https://t.co/OkcuIeVZ9k — PolitiTweet.org

"Nevertheless, the Child Tax Credit is an idea whose time has come." By passing this tax credit expansion through the American Rescue Plan, child poverty in this country will be cut in half. Now, let's work to make it permanent. https://t.co/HllmWSJMz3 — PolitiTweet.org

This week, I sat down with @JWhitePubRadio on @1A to discuss the Child Tax Credit expansion that was included in the American Rescue Plan and how it will lift millions of kids out of poverty. Listen here ⬇️https://t.co/k9sB6g2NGP — PolitiTweet.org

RT @ChildDefender: #AmericanRescuePlan will address racial disparities & lift millions of marginalized kids out of poverty. Many thanks to… — PolitiTweet.org

Nationwide, 90% of kids will benefit from the Child Tax Credit passed in the American Rescue Plan. This is huge. — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago, police broke down Breonna Taylor’s door and shot her multiple times in her own apartment. She should still be with us today. We owe it to Breonna, Black Americans, and all victims of racial violence to seek justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Because of the stronger Child Tax Credit— modeled on my American Family Act— passed in the relief package, most families in America will receive $3,000 per child and $3,600 per young child to help cover rent, buy groceries, and pay for necessities. This will be transformational. https://t.co/yRUJK87NsD — PolitiTweet.org

The Earned Income Tax Credit passed in the American Rescue Plan will benefit working Americans across the country, including: ✔️17 million childless workers nationwide ✔️Nearly 300,000 workers in Colorado But our work isn't done. We need to make these tax credits permanent. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Soon, I'll be joining @KatyTurNBC on MSNBC to discuss how the American Rescue Plan will cut childhood poverty in half. Tune in now! — PolitiTweet.org

It was a pleasure to meet with three phenomenal @SenateYouth delegates from Colorado this week. These students are already leaders in their communities and I can't wait to see what they achieve in the years ahead. https://t.co/oM17sa6u5T — PolitiTweet.org

Coloradans have told me they're working as hard as they can, but can't afford some combination of housing, health care, child care, or higher education. The Child Tax Credit passed in the American Rescue Plan will make an enormous difference in their lives.https://t.co/zD5P22ZGrP — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

In Colorado alone, the expanded Child Tax Credit will benefit almost 90% of kids and lift 57,000 children out of poverty. It is a historic step toward a society that doesn’t just talk about family values but that actually values families. My op-ed⬇️https://t.co/Ct5E0kt9yG — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

.@POTUS just signed the American Rescue Plan — a historic step toward bridging our way out of this crisis and building an economy that works for everyone. We just passed a bill that will cut child poverty in half. It is only the beginning of what we can do. — PolitiTweet.org

Last year, Colorado faced its worst wildfire season in our state's history. @SenatorHick and I are urging @USDA to support wildfire recovery efforts in Colorado as our communities continue to rebuild and recover from the devastation. https://t.co/4xkmD0ASXN — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

The American Rescue Plan — and its tax credit expansions — is the most significant investment in American workers and families in generations. @SenSchumer is right. Help is on the way. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

The Child Tax Credit in the relief plan will cut childhood poverty in half. This wouldn’t be possible without the incredible partnership of @SenSherrodBrown,@SenBooker, @rosadelauro, @RepDelBene, and @RepRitchie. But we're not done yet. We have to make this change permanent. https://t.co/uitV9fuiRE — PolitiTweet.org

Judge Garland is singularly qualified to restore independence and integrity to @TheJusticeDept. He is of the highest intellect and character and appreciates DOJ's vital role in defending the rule of law and hard-won civil rights. I enthusiastically supported his confirmation. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

GREAT NEWS: the House just passed the American Rescue Plan. From investing in public health to cutting childhood poverty in half, this historic legislation will help us beat the pandemic and provide immediate relief to millions of Americans. This is what progress looks like. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

We have to make sure that families still reeling from the pandemic don't face eviction and fall into the cycle of poverty and homelessness that too often follow it. I look forward to working with @HUDgov Secretary @mlfudge to support families and keep people in their homes. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Our work is not over; we need to make these tax credits permanent. https://t.co/p5OMx0SCV1 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

One bill invests in workers and families. The other bill cut taxes for the wealthiest Americans. The difference in our priorities could not be more stark. https://t.co/MLMo3SCfu1 — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Colorado Aerospace Day! Today, we celebrate the incredible innovation, work, and partnerships that have made aerospace a leading industry in our state. This celebration is a reminder of just one of the many reasons Colorado should serve as @US_SpaceCom's permanent home. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm proud the @AmerMedicalAssn has recognized Liane Jollon's tireless work at @SJBPublicHealth. It was an honor to nominate her for this award. On behalf of Colorado, I thank Liane & all public health workers who have helped keep us safe during this crisis.https://t.co/v9vYRbtVmP — PolitiTweet.org
