Today’s verdict is only a first step toward full justice for George Floyd. We have much work to do to deliver on our Constitution’s promise of equal protection under law. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The images of George Floyd’s death shocked our collective conscience, and the case against Mr. Chauvin was overwhelming. This is the right decision. — PolitiTweet.org

This is wonky, but important. One way our tax code is rigged in favor of the wealthy is through tax expenditures - subsidies delivered through tax code that disproportionately benefit the rich & are then get baked into the tax code forever. We must make our tax code fairer. — PolitiTweet.org

One way companies can claim fake emissions reduction. Sell the polluting asset. It still pollutes. https://t.co/xSaZ7PGXti — PolitiTweet.org

I’m sad to see Walter Mondale passed away. He was kind and wise, he suffered sorrows graciously, and I am grateful to him. — PolitiTweet.org

Real reform of our criminal justice system means adopting humane strategies. That’s why @davidcicilline & I are introducing a bicameral bill to allow caregivers convicted of nonviolent crimes to serve alternative sentences in their communities to keep families together. — PolitiTweet.org

Our judiciary was built to serve the people, but a handful of right-wing donors decided to change that. Now, their shady organizations and dark money networks are trying to hide from public scrutiny. Read my latest with @RepHankJohnson: https://t.co/41T3996WrE — PolitiTweet.org

Joined @RIDOTnews beneath the Providence Viaduct to kick off a busy 2021 construction season. I developed the INFRA Program to launch major job-creating infrastructure projects like the reconstruction of the Northbound Viaduct – RI secured a $60M INFRA Grant for the project. https://t.co/VaU6gJ1GFd — PolitiTweet.org

At last, people are noticing. Thank you to colleagues who joined my brief in this case. The armada of dark-money amici is a stark warning. ‘The Court That Dark Money Built’ is being asked to deliver the goods. — PolitiTweet.org

Well done, @JohnKerry, extracting climate from the tarpit of hostilities left by Trump between us and China. https://t.co/hIHM1xhb85 — PolitiTweet.org

.@alfranken in action. Go, Al! I was the sponsor and floor manager of that bill, and Franken was pretty funny that day. https://t.co/Ov4rOnHolz — PolitiTweet.org

Polluter Page contributor said climate change “hoax.” Then “science not settled.” Now, doesn’t justify “rapid and wholesale abandoning of fossil fuels.” (That’s what the industry wants to hear!) Denial becomes Denial Lite. https://t.co/b3HNoIoyb0 — PolitiTweet.org

Watched Prince Philip funeral yesterday. Perfect day and gorgeous pageantry. They do this so well. — PolitiTweet.org

#ChamberofCarbon fights for corporate dark money powers — the exact powers that let it block climate legislation for a decade and made it a ‘worst climate obstructor.’ https://t.co/S5QQkTlhsg — PolitiTweet.org

Not long ago, my wife Sandra wrote her doctoral dissertation on Narragansett Bay’s winter flounder. Now it looks like it’s gone. https://t.co/LIGZgsEiSM — PolitiTweet.org

RIP Vartan Gregorian. Amazing life story; amazing man. I loved working with him when he was President of Brown. My condolences to all who loved him. — PolitiTweet.org

We owe the very best care to our veterans who have served and sacrificed for the nation. I was proud to join @SenJackReed to announce an initial $840K to help protect residents of the RI Veterans Home from COVID-19. More aid from the American Rescue Plan will be on the way soon. https://t.co/e767hF5UE3 — PolitiTweet.org

We can send our thoughts and prayers, but that just doesn’t cut it. It’s time for bipartisan action to DO SOMETHING about these tragedies. https://t.co/gamgR38Z9x — PolitiTweet.org

“Boxing out” fishermen is the wrong way to begin. RI lesson is that frontloading and resolving use conflicts is the way to success. It’s a public sea, behave accordingly; there are still billions to be made. https://t.co/649cq69tW8 — PolitiTweet.org

“Tucker Carlson villainizes journalists on his top-rated show. Then the threats pour in.” Reminds me of the launching of the trolls, old school: https://t.co/k9Q2d4QjLY https://t.co/UxqKxVnEhP — PolitiTweet.org

Some Republicans can’t fathom Vanita Gupta's broad support from law enforcement. One of them even asked if she threatened them into backing her nomination. Ha! Take a look at the responses that elicited from law enforcement. https://t.co/NMwF5QvgBB — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
A strong DOJ is one of our best lines of defense against big, powerful special interests rigging our democracy in their favor. That’s why we need people like Vanita Gupta making sure DOJ is fighting back. I agree with @StopBigMoney & @AFJustice. #ConfirmGupta https://t.co/LHV4SWl5Uq — PolitiTweet.org

We need a national paid sick leave standard. In the wealthiest country in the world, it is inhumane that so many workers have to choose between a paycheck and their health. — PolitiTweet.org

Very bitter right-wing attacks have been launched against Kristen Clarke and Vanita Gupta. No surprise since they’re going to be the ones responsible for enforcing voting rights. Some people don’t want some people to vote. — PolitiTweet.org
