I developed the INFRA Grant Program to greenlight major infrastructure projects like rebuilding the Northbound Providence Viaduct. Today we’re celebrating a $60 million grant from the INFRA Program to transform this corroded aerial spaghetti into a modern thruway & create jobs. https://t.co/Busnp7SQGo — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to be at @QuonsetRI today for the unveiling of a new economic impact report showing that federal investments at Quonset have paid dividends in the form of job creation & economic growth. Quonset is well-positioned to attract even more private investment in the years ahead. — PolitiTweet.org

@NRA (BTW, on climate, how lame is corporate America? @amazon & @Google support climate-denying “Competitive Enterprise Institute.” @CocaCola & @pepsi support top climate obstructor “U.S. Chamber of Commerce.” And of course fossil fuel still lies and denies.) #ChamberofCarbon — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

This is good, but is it going to be (like climate) all public statement with no political effort? The @NRA knows how to wait out corporate PR. https://t.co/GBPjpIJbSx — PolitiTweet.org

Whoa. Marine Institute at Memorial University of Newfoundland recorded 100-foot offshore wave in Dorian. https://t.co/6OkOhrqf6y — PolitiTweet.org

My brief detailing how the @NRA & other dark money groups have captured the Supreme Court has sent Republicans & conservative media into a frenzy. Because they know it’s true. Here’s the evidence: https://t.co/UwKZV0kXhb — PolitiTweet.org

A case study in Big Oil’s fake support for carbon pricing and its political muscle and treachery. Well reported. https://t.co/6QYZyYtJHV — PolitiTweet.org

The sycophancy shuffle to make their Dear Leader happy is worthy of a #Veep episode, and would be really funny — if it weren’t true. https://t.co/F9PAUYd9LW — PolitiTweet.org

.@FoxNews complains about regular news: "Overall, the spin of [Trump] coverage during these three months was 90% negative." Maybe because @realDonaldTrump’s a 90% terrible president? https://t.co/y7OZlOVcEN — PolitiTweet.org

This from the party that blew $2 trillion on tax cuts for the rich. Now make it up with Social Security cuts? Behind closed doors? I don’t think so. https://t.co/nE4x4cWihQ — PolitiTweet.org

This is Steven Menashi, an extreme, partisan judicial nominee. Here he is defending an op-ed he helped write praising students for convincing their university to let a campus group ban gay people from being officers. Imagine being an LGBTQ litigant & having him as your judge. https://t.co/qY5T5PQYKZ — PolitiTweet.org

I’m confident she will serve the people of Rhode Island with distinction on the bench, and pleased at the happiness of her new colleagues at her arrival. — PolitiTweet.org

I am thrilled that Mary McElroy is at long last officially set to become a U.S. District Judge for Rhode Island. Mary has impeccable credentials and a long commitment to public service. https://t.co/N1n0A3l4ke — PolitiTweet.org

@brianschatz But Brian, you have to admit the #ChamberOfCarbon has released some beautifully worded public statements pretending to care. — PolitiTweet.org

Companies like @amazon need to take real responsibility for their role in the climate crisis. Employees are right to demand that Amazon stop funding climate denying lobbyists, politicians and “think tanks” like @ceidotorg. https://t.co/U3Qta7hDJP — PolitiTweet.org

We will #NeverForget 9/11 heroes, victims, and families and friends who lost loved ones. And I’m grateful that first responders finally have a permanently reauthorized September 11th Victim Compensation Fund this year. — PolitiTweet.org

At least in Rhode Island we’ve worked hard to make sure that people stay insured and to keep premiums low. That’s paid off. Thank goodness. — PolitiTweet.org

From the moment it passed, and even though they can’t pass a plan of their own, Republicans have done their very best to sabotage the #ACA. Now the number of uninsured Americans is back on the rise. https://t.co/TaKIWC0nP0 — PolitiTweet.org
