I am safe and my staff is safe. We are currently in a secure lockdown. Today’s attack on the Capitol and our democracy is dangerous and unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

President-elect Biden couldn’t have made a better choice for U.S. Attorney General. Merrick Garland will protect the rule of law and uphold the Constitution. He'll restore integrity to the @TheJusticeDept and re-establish its independence. Congrats to my friend and former boss. — PolitiTweet.org

The Department of Defense responded– making it clear that there are explicit limits to when and how the Insurrection Act should be used. There's no question: there is no place for the military in determining the outcome of our elections. DoD's response➡️https://t.co/AxdsvkpM2Y — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

When the president suggested he would invoke the Insurrection Act last summer, we sent a letter to @DeptofDefense expressing our deep concern with his threat to use this law that is understood to only be invoked in the event of an insurrection, rebellion, or extreme civil unrest. https://t.co/EDZ26p8UdE — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

6 months after Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act to impede Americans’ First Amendment rights, some of his supporters have suggested it be used to prevent a peaceful transfer of power. Every living former defense secretary agrees the military has no role to play. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m glad the @usairforce was able to visit Peterson AFB today. I am confident they will depart knowing that Colorado is the only home for U.S. Space Command. — PolitiTweet.org

This new Trump rule undermines EPA's ability to use the best available science to protect communities. Imagine a school discounting survey research on educational outcomes in its decision-making. Coming in the final hours of the Trump Administration, this leaves us less safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Tomorrow, Congress will have an opportunity to defend the Constitution against politicians who wish to tear out its pages to serve their political interests. We must reassert the American principle that we are a country of laws, not of men. My Op-Ed⬇️ https://t.co/E2qFHuGcr4 — PolitiTweet.org

Welcome to the U.S. Senate @SenatorHick. I look forward to serving Coloradans with you. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to innovation and science we’ve made dramatic progress, but there’s much more work to be done to protect our climate and achieve the act’s promise of clean air for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Since the Clean Air Act passed fifty years ago this week, cars are now 99% cleaner, we’ve gotten lead out of gasoline, tackled the ozone hole, and saved countless lives. https://t.co/NgcdmmWnSC — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing everyone a happy and healthy new year. https://t.co/sjrvOvnftm — PolitiTweet.org

Coloradans, please stay safe and continue wash your hands, social distance, and #wearamask when you have to go out in public, especially as you ring in the new year. #InThisTogetherCO — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Discovering this #COVID19 variant and acting quickly to identify and isolate anyone exposed to it is a testament the tremendous efforts of our state public health lab and public health officials. We’re grateful for your dedication to combating this virus. https://t.co/j1AbuEj08r — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I'll keep working to make sure programs like #SNAP quickly and automatically expand during economic downturns to support those in need. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

The recent #COVID19 relief package includes a 15% SNAP benefit increase, a provision @RepJoeNeguse & I worked on to help Coloradans put food on the table. https://t.co/0qbagFicSw — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I had the pleasure of talking to high school student and co-chair of FISH’s youth advisory board, Lucia Fang. I’m grateful for her commitment to helping Coloradans in need. https://t.co/uJNodly6M2 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Great to visit @BroomfieldFISH yesterday to see the critical work they are doing to prevent hunger and homelessness among Colorado families. https://t.co/ryU0ufbKOt — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I'm glad the president finally signed the #COVID19 relief package to support Americans facing severe hardship.   This is far from the end of our responsibility.   We must be prepared to act again to provide the rest of the necessary relief to overcome this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

After years of delay and countless Americans impacted, I'm glad Congress passed our bill to protect patients from surprise medical bills. This is especially important during this pandemic when millions of people have become sick or lost their jobs. https://t.co/VsIAnRqflm — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

My Outdoor Restoration Force Act will create good-paying jobs while improving forest health, enhancing wildlife habitat, & expanding outdoor access. I’m grateful to have growing & broad support for this bill to invest in our forests & boost our economy. https://t.co/P09waMXxwQ — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Colorado was honored to furnish a beautiful 55-foot Engelmann spruce this year to continue the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree tradition. You can watch a special episode of @americasforests to see the tree's journey from @GMUG_NF to Washington, D.C. ⬇️ https://t.co/g2eSlKCIL2 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

With its infrastructure, workforce, & commitment to the space mission, Colorado Springs is the clear choice for @US_SpaceCom's permanent home. I'll keep working with @GovofCO, the Colorado Congressional Delegation, & Colorado Springs to make this happen. https://t.co/1fWkAQS4Xd — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

This has been a record-setting wildfire season for Colorado. My colleagues and I are urging the president to approve Colorado's request for a major disaster declaration to ensure we have the resources to recover and rebuild. Our letter➡️ https://t.co/o46aLxZi2N https://t.co/aSZvG9liJI — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Families, individuals, and businesses are in crisis through no fault of their own. Instead of going on a pardoning spree and spewing false claims about our election, the president should do the bare minimum and sign our #COVID19 relief package into law. https://t.co/gZgEiy3kxh — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

By nominating @teachcardona to be the Secretary of Education, President-elect Biden has made another solid choice. Miguel is an educator’s educator who will help us re-open schools safely and bring a commitment to students, teachers, and public schools back to the agency. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

This was literally more than 9 months ago. Where have you been, @RealDonaldTrump? — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Last night, we took an important step by passing additional #COVID19 relief, but it's not the end of our responsibility. When the Senate returns, we must act again to provide the necessary relief to overcome this crisis. The American people cannot wait another seven months. https://t.co/dTzN2LsyHt — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I am deeply troubled by allegations that Zoom has censored people in the United States at the behest of the Chinese Communist Party for discussing the Tiananmen Square massacre. Zoom needs to explain why this happened and how it won't ever happen again.   https://t.co/0ZKKPvP5K3 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Tonight's passage of #COVID19 relief is an important step but it is not the end of our responsibility. When the Senate returns in January, we must be prepared to act again to provide the necessary relief to overcome this crisis. https://t.co/m3vcfaAdO9 — PolitiTweet.org
