I’ve heard over and over from Coloradans about the toll this crisis has taken on their mental health. Our bipartisan bill will triple funding for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, ensuring those who are seeking help have an easier time finding it. https://t.co/9lXtg30CqL — PolitiTweet.org

Our thoughts are with the evacuees of the #EastTroublesomeFire & other #wildfires burning across Colorado. We're in touch with local authorities & working to ensure our firefighters & first responders have the federal resources they need to combat these fires. More info⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

My colleagues & I are asking @HHSgov & @USTreasury to analyze what the impact on health coverage would be if the ACA is overturned. Experts estimate over 20M Americans' health care is at risk––but that number could be even higher because of #COVID19. More: https://t.co/0Hs3X0YVxe — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell asked Senate Democrats in 2014 to "put the ideology and political show votes aside and give the American people what they’ve been asking for..." He should heed his own advice—stop the political stunts and pass a bipartisan relief package now. https://t.co/6Hm7ifDucR — PolitiTweet.org

This is heart-wrenching and it never should have happened. We need to figure out a way to reunite these children with their families. https://t.co/dFxUgIKgYJ — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

If the #ACA is overturned, @urbaninstitute estimates that CO will lose nearly $3B in federal investments in health care. We should be increasing funding for health care, not taking it away––especially during a global pandemic. This is #WhatsAtStake with this SCOTUS nomination. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Mitch McConnell's PPP stunt is woefully inadequate. He should stop the politics & work in good faith w/ Democrats & the administration to pass a comprehensive relief package that will actually support the American people. Read my full statement here⬇️ https://t.co/KKsfNUJ1Bg — PolitiTweet.org

A federal judge blocked a Trump Administration rule that would have taken #SNAP benefits away from nearly 700K Americans. Rather than taking food benefits away from food insecure families during a pandemic & economic crisis, we should increase SNAP benefits by 15%. #ProtectSNAP — PolitiTweet.org

📢📢In-person #EarlyVoting starts today across Colorado! I voted last week at one of the 383 secure drop boxes across our state. However you prefer to vote––and whomever you're supporting––make a plan, cast your ballot, and be heard! — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

It was incredibly moving to hear about @lpackard's journey as a cancer survivor. Laura knows firsthand #WhatsAtStake if McConnell succeeds in ramming through the president's Supreme Court nominee and millions of Americans lose their health care. Thank you for sharing your story. https://t.co/nqVrRMwrc5 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Our PASTEUR Act is the strongest proposal to improve the appropriate use of antibiotics in our health care system. The funding model this bill creates would be subscription-based – not based on volume – so that manufacturers & providers can focus on what's best for patients. https://t.co/w0hy19kKEH — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Thinking of everyone affected by the fires across our state—including the #CalWoodFire now burning north of Boulder. We’ll continue to press for the necessary federal resources to fight these fires and protect Colorado. Stay safe and follow state and local fire guidelines. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

This pandemic has been a particularly hard time for the 1 in 5 individuals living in Colorado with a disability. I will continue to fight for their right to receive health care wherever they prefer, including their own home. We must swiftly pass the Disability Integration Act. https://t.co/JqXFm3OfVe — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

During the course of #COVID19, we've learned that we weren't prepared for a pandemic. With our bipartisan PASTEUR Act, we have the chance to not only learn from our mistakes but to invest in science & innovation to better prepare for the future. https://t.co/xaboW8XpnW — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Thanks for the warm welcome, #TeamNRO—great to see the important work being done in Colorado. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

My thoughts are with the firefighters & evacuees affected by the Cameron Peak Fire—now the largest wildfire in Colorado's history. Last week, I urged @forestservice & @USDA_NRCS to help mitigate damage to the region's watersheds & water supply.➡️ https://t.co/2BkGF42LqP https://t.co/3HIdu1QvRz — PolitiTweet.org

Living in a country where some kids don't have access to broadband in the 21st century is tantamount to living in a country where some kids don't have access textbooks. The BRIDGE Act will help solve this problem. https://t.co/Y1Nqg8ZSBL — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

If McConnell succeeds in ramming through the president's Supreme Court nominee, the Affordable Care Act could be gutted. If that happens, over 2 million Coloradans with preexisting conditions would lose protections. Health care is #WhatsAtStake with this SCOTUS nomination. https://t.co/ovzpWW3WRf — PolitiTweet.org

Coloradans: Today is your last chance to fill out the #2020Census. An accurate count is critical to making sure our communities have the funding and representation they deserve. If you haven't yet, respond to the census right now ⬇️ https://t.co/RQRfWPzqsc — PolitiTweet.org

New @JECDems report finds the #COVID19 pandemic & economic crisis have increased symptoms of anxiety and depression for nearly 38% of Coloradans. Instead of working to improve mental health care during this stressful time, Republicans are on a mission to repeal the #ACA. — PolitiTweet.org

This morning I walked from my house to one of 380 secure drop boxes across Colorado and dropped off my ballot. Whether you plan to cast your ballot by mail, leave it in a drop box, or vote in person – make a plan to #VOTE! https://t.co/rAaI2rdAlk — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

I helped increase broadband funding at @USDA to support areas like Southwest Colorado as they connect communities and invest in their future. We have to keep fighting until every American, no matter where they live, has affordable, high-speed broadband. https://t.co/FfdyMWzXRn — PolitiTweet.org

Looking forward to joining @josefkorbel tomorrow to discuss how Colorado and our country must take climate action to lead and compete in a 21st century climate economy. Register for the discussion today ⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

Good morning from Fort Garland Museum in Costilla county! I heard from several county leaders & students from Sierra Grande schools about the challenges they're facing with #COVID19 & the drought. Our small but mighty communities need our support in the next COVID relief package. https://t.co/eRc2TK7eer — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Coloradans are not asking us to get rid of the ACA. They want us to build on it so we can have a health care system that covers everyone in this country in an affordable way. Instead, McConnell is jamming through a SCOTUS nominee & 600k Coloradans’ health care is #WhatsAtStake. https://t.co/HNk9IXCDGx — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

This week I'm in SW Colorado, and as always, the conversations have been inspiring. Our communities have answered this difficult time by coming together to fight evictions, tackle climate change, and help students without broadband access. DC could learn a lot from their example. — PolitiTweet.org
