Right-wing dark money groups have already announced $39 million dollars in spending campaigns to restrict voting rights at state level & block #ForThePeopleAct. Expect that number to increase. Two particular groups are very prominent: the State Policy Network & @ALEC_state. — PolitiTweet.org

If so, Exxon, prove it by disclosing all your lobbying, political and electioneering expenditures in the last decade, including through your front groups. https://t.co/8MoRjAq8gz — PolitiTweet.org

Dear corporate “leaders” at climate summit: Please “lead” your massive, dominant corporate political apparatus to take an interest in climate. Until then, shut up. — PolitiTweet.org

Remember when Brett Kavanaugh was so outraged and furious that he might be held to account for teenage misbehavior? Now this.    https://t.co/KXRFbMZh1t — PolitiTweet.org

Let me add a fourth: activate your political forces on climate.  Corporate power dominates Congress, yet none of that corporate political apparatus is directed to supporting serious climate legislation. Zero effort is not enough. https://t.co/cxAHSc2NMW — PolitiTweet.org

Not impressed. You’ve known about this for a decade and coasted on Trump. How will you make amends for years of known leakage you could have fixed? https://t.co/sqcWTJWnrR — PolitiTweet.org

Nice statement by NAM, recently America’s “worst climate obstructor.” Good to see that change. Now, on to supporting real bills! https://t.co/iVGvpw9N7L — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to join @senjackreed to announce $22 million in new federal funding to upgrade RI's water infrastructure. There are few infrastructure investments we can make that will have a bigger payoff for public health than replacing lead pipes. https://t.co/MQcVzO0sM8 — PolitiTweet.org

Getting vaccinated is the best thing you can do for yourself, your family, and your community. Over half a million Rhode Islanders have gotten at least one dose, and there are still many appointments available. Sign up here: https://t.co/SiTujeXhGx — PolitiTweet.org

I can’t help but wonder why, after the Trump administration’s own election security czar AND Georgia’s officials vouched for the integrity of the election, did seemingly every Republican-controlled legislative body in the country pivot to file and move voter suppression bills? — PolitiTweet.org

Justice Barrett is set to decide a case brought by the same right-wing special interest group that poured over a million dollars into a campaign to get her confirmed. She needs to recuse herself, under Supreme Court precedent. https://t.co/0N6O6kbwxI — PolitiTweet.org

Tax expenditures allow people with access to high priced tax attorneys to choose if & when they pay taxes. Of course, you have to be making a lot of money to make this worth it. So, they tend to benefit the rich. Add this to the list of things driving inequality in our tax code. — PolitiTweet.org

For a long time I raised this issue alone, but now the tide is turning & a federal judiciary policy panel is calling it “important and complex.” Finally. https://t.co/fjx6xMVqYK — PolitiTweet.org

When a case comes before a court, there are often outside groups with a stake in the outcome even if they aren't directly involved. That's where amicus briefs come in. They let outside groups take positions in cases & raise points in support of one side. All fine & well, right? — PolitiTweet.org

Vanita Gupta has spent her entire career fighting for civil rights, building consensus on polarizing issues, and addressing the deep inequalities in our justice system. At this critical moment for our democracy, we need to #ConfirmGupta. — PolitiTweet.org
