Dark-money vultures are circling around the SCOTUS case Americans for Prosperity Foundation v. Rodriquez. Over 60 groups have flocked to lobby the court to hear the case. They know what they stand to gain; we need to make sure the American public knows what they stand to lose. — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @Sabina_Matos on her pathbreaking nomination to serve as Lieutenant Governor. Sabina is an experienced leader and a highly effective advocate for Providence. I know she will be a strong voice for all Rhode Islanders in the LG’s office. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ClimateVoiceOrg is spot-on. We need big companies to actually show up in Congress to lobby for the climate legislation they claim to support. Right now, it’s all talk and no action. https://t.co/IwQSzUlcaK — PolitiTweet.org

Americans for Prosperity Foundation v. Rodriquez hasn’t made headlines yet, but it should: it tees up the Court to permit dark money’s influence over American democracy to grow. That would make big special interests very happy. — PolitiTweet.org

I just filed a brief with the Supreme Court in Americans for Prosperity Foundation v. Rodriquez – a case that could make it all but impossible to get dark money out of our politics. As my colleagues and I explain, we cannot let this happen. Read ⬇️ https://t.co/IGDwO0l3sl — PolitiTweet.org

Exciting to see @POTUS draw on my legislation with @RepLloydDoggett to end incentives from the Republican tax scam that send American jobs and profits overseas. I’ll be working with the White House to make sure these fixes stop the ultra-rich and corporations from dodging taxes. — PolitiTweet.org

Facts matter. Science matters — even the dismal one. Leading edge of physical climate havoc will be economic havoc, so economists’ warning matters. “Drastic” not an ordinary term; 74% not an ordinary number. https://t.co/OAqjj8eyh0 — PolitiTweet.org

I am pleased to see the White House nominate judges to help restore the federal bench after 4 years of special-interest court-packing. We must confirm this slate of qualified candidates, & lay bare the court-capture operation that special interests ran against our judiciary. — PolitiTweet.org
