Nobody should live in fear that their children won't return home at the end of a school day. Absolutely heartbroken over the senseless loss of life in Uvalde, Texas. These were children with their whole lives ahead of them. We can’t accept this as normal. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Proud to help the Senate confirm Judge Davis—an exemplary legal mind and qualified jurist—to serve on the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals. I’m confident her commitment to upholding the rule of law will continue to serve Michigan and our country well. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

My new report highlights the importance of my law requiring essential networks to report cyber-attacks and ransomware payments. We need to build on this landmark effort to go after criminals hackers & disrupt the incentive virtual currencies provide for them to commit attacks. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

I'll continue working to increase access to affordable housing, strengthen the relationships between local law enforcement & the communities they call home as well as combat domestic terrorism and protect houses of worship. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Thanks to @MIChronicle for hosting Pancakes & Politics. It was great to join @SenStabenow to talk about our work to empower Detroit neighborhoods and urban communities across Michigan. https://t.co/PGNWn1R6JF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

It was great to welcome students from East Hills Middle School to the Capitol this week! https://t.co/XY7pAlPrfB — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

As Michiganders, the Great Lakes are part of our DNA and preserving them has been a top priority for me in the Senate. WATCH below to learn more about how my PROTECT Our Great Lakes Act will help us protect the Great Lakes for future generations. https://t.co/oyq8W1oRcN — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Thanks to @SenStabenow’s leadership, a vital bill to help ensure moms and babies have access to the formula they need now was just signed into law by @POTUS. This bipartisan legislation will make a big difference for families in Michigan and across the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

My thoughts are with the Gaylord community and all those affected by today’s devastating tornado. I’m grateful that first responders are on the scene and as chair of @HSGAC I stand ready to support federal disaster assistance as needed. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Great to meet with Ambassador @bikhim. The U.S. has a close relationship with Taiwan—and I’m committed to building on our close bonds and expanding economic opportunities. And our friendship with Taiwan is the lynchpin of a free & open Indo-Pacific. 🇺🇸🇹🇼 https://t.co/fruO0ElmGc — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Creating trust between local law enforcement & the communities they serve can lead to better outcomes & more accountability. My bipartisan community policing bill—which incentivizes recruits to work in communities they live & serve—passed out of committee.https://t.co/kYxRm0wrcr — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

The State Small Business Credit Initiative is a proven success and a program I have long championed. I was pleased to announce with @SenStabenow that Michigan will receive up to $237 million from @USTreasury to help small businesses across our state. https://t.co/xl9QM3Xd0s — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

It was an honor to introduce @UMich Professor Michael Barr to serve as Vice Chair on the Federal Reserve. He has the leadership and experience to help strengthen our economy and support families across our state—and our country. https://t.co/GGxdQpOgtF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

I voted for critical legislation that offers aid to restaurants that missed out on relief before—and still need it now. It’s disappointing that some of my Republican colleagues blocked this bipartisan bill, but I’ll keep fighting for these vital small businesses. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

This bill will provide essential military and humanitarian support to the Ukrainian people, and I’m glad to see it headed to President Biden’s desk. I'll continue to stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine and our allies through this war. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Good news! East Grand Rapids native Bridget Brink was unanimously confirmed by the Senate. I can’t think of anyone better prepared for the challenge of serving as U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine. She'll not only support Ukraine now—but in the recovery and rebuilding phases too. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

State and local governments continue to be targeted by cybercriminals and cyber-attacks can put sensitive and personal information at risk. Proud my bill to boost our cybersecurity defenses for local governments is headed to the @POTUS’ desk to be signed into law. ✍️ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Today I introduced legislation to strengthen pipeline safety & ensure our federal agencies are equipped to swiftly and effectively take action in the event of a spill. Click here to learn more about my bill, the PROTECT Act: https://t.co/TKExxzaXL2 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

The Great Lakes are an ecological treasure, invaluable source of freshwater & engine of economic growth. We must protect from potential oil spills that would be devastating to our way of life. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

During this #PoliceWeek, I want to recognize the law enforcement officers across the State of Michigan—and our country—who work to keep our communities safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Happy #517Day to the Greater Lansing area and everyone who reps the 517 area code! https://t.co/Y9V6N1M7ca — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

I spoke with @AbbottNews today. Glad they’ll be able to restart & increase baby formula production at their Sturgis facility. We must take a comprehensive approach to address this shortage—& I’ll keep supporting efforts to safely increase production & restock our shelves ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

I’ll keep fighting to protect this fundamental right. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

This is very welcome news. Michigan’s 1931 abortion law is not only outdated but dangerous. With a woman’s right to make these health care decisions with her doctor at grave risk nationally, make no mistake this fight is not over. https://t.co/k9jaf3o9aL — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Our top national security experts agree that domestic terrorism—including white nationalist and anti-government violence—is the most significant security threat facing our nation. As Chair of @HSGAC, I have made addressing this threat one of my top priorities. https://t.co/2naCmqfNHA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

It's been 6 months since @POTUS signed the bipartisan infrastructure bill we passed into law. Whether it’s repairing roads & bridges, expanding high-speed internet or building resilient communities—this bill is huge for Michigan. Click ⬇️ for more https://t.co/LY2mEbiYY6 — PolitiTweet.org

The Healthy Michigan Plan is a proven success—expanding access to quality, affordable health care to over 1 million Michiganders. Proud to have helped pass the ACA to make this possible. https://t.co/f7XzSKtb6D — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

I'm very glad to hear my friend and desk neighbor in the Senate @ChrisVanHollen is doing much better. Looking forward to seeing you back in the Senate soon! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Thank you to all the brave men and women from Michigan and across the U.S. who are serving to protect our freedoms and way of life. This #ArmedServicesDay—and every day—we're forever grateful for your service. — PolitiTweet.org
