Pleased to see the FDA authorize another #COVID19 vaccine. This reinforces the need to pass the American Rescue Plan so we can rapidly expand vaccine distribution & improve local coordination to get the vaccines in as many arms as possible. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

I pressed @DeptofDefense officials this week on what is being done to increase transparency and improve the federal government’s coordination with states regarding #COVID19 vaccines. This will help ensure vaccines are distributed safely, effectively and quickly. https://t.co/hs8KIA7YZN — PolitiTweet.org

Read my full statement on the House passage of the American Rescue Plan and why the Senate must act quickly so we can provide Michiganders with stimulus payments, ramp up vaccinations, and make sure schools can safely reopen. https://t.co/FGfzxnjOTW — PolitiTweet.org

As we close in on the one-year anniversary of this pandemic, it’s clear Michiganders need urgent relief. I’m pleased the House has passed the American Rescue Plan and I will work with my Senate colleagues to swiftly pass this package and get it enacted into law. — PolitiTweet.org

The Great Lakes are one of Michigan’s most treasured resources. I’ll keep fighting to secure increased funding for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative which is critical in fighting against the spread of Asian Carp & other invasive species. #InvSpWk — PolitiTweet.org

Detroit’s first African American school teacher, Fannie Richards, was not only a world-educated scholar but fought to desegregate Detroit’s schools in the 1800s. #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/9I1vzlNobC — PolitiTweet.org

In Michigan, thousands of jobs in outdoor recreation and tourism revolve around strong, healthy, and sustainable ecosystems. That's why I will continue fighting to protect the Endangered Species Act and in turn, our state’s vital wildlife population. #EndangeredSpeciesWeek — PolitiTweet.org

I am pleased that @UMichFootball & @NUFBFamily have found such a wonderful way to honor Dr. Jewett’s proud legacy. I look forward to letting my friends @SenatorDurbin & @SenDuckworth know exactly where this new trophy belongs! #blackhistorymonth #GoBlue — PolitiTweet.org

It was special to join @JCRC_AJC on the eve of Purim. Happy Purim to all who are celebrating! I know this marks roughly a year since the onset of the pandemic and that festivities look different. I’m hopeful, though, that by this time next year we can all be together. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Gary Peters @SenGaryPeters

Great conversation with @JCRC_AJC and appreciated the opportunity to provide an update on my priorities in the Senate, passing needed COVID relief & working as @HSGAC Chair to address security threats, including domestic terrorism at houses of worship. — PolitiTweet.org

The House of Representatives has PASSED the #EqualityAct and now it’s time for the Senate to act. I'm a proud to co-sponsor of the #EqualityAct. No one in Michigan or across the United States should face discrimination for who they are or who they love. — PolitiTweet.org

.@JenGranholm has a track record of strong leadership. It is clear she recognizes what must be done to advance our nation’s energy interests, because she already achieved results in Michigan as Governor.

Our nation owes a great debt to the Tuskegee Airmen. Despite facing racism and injustice at home, they fought for their country with valor when called to serve. It was a great privilege to be named an Honorary Red Tail last year. #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/uARNisjhse — PolitiTweet.org

News reports indicate that Capitol Police leadership was aware that unlike other protests – Congress itself was the target on January 6th. I pressed officials on whether additional measures were taken to increase security based on that information. https://t.co/dUdq2Y3dXU — PolitiTweet.org

Six weeks ago, our nation watched with horror as our Capitol building was breached by domestic terrorists who sought to use violence & intimidation to overturn the results of a free & fair election.

We’ve seen a pattern of elected officials spread misinformation and conspiracy theories about the fair and free election leading up to & in the aftermath of the January 6th attack. As we examine security and intelligence breakdowns related to the attack we must follow the facts. https://t.co/xbU6xXgA9A — PolitiTweet.org
