I was there to honor her great life and in gratitude for our friendship. https://t.co/tITInc9dRG — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

Emotions ran high today in the Capitol as Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg became the first woman, and the first Jewish American, to rest in honor on the Lincoln Catafalque. But so did the gratitude for all she accomplished for women, and for all Americans. https://t.co/X9520q9fmN — PolitiTweet.org

Tens of millions of women lack access to safe, modern contraceptives. The White House should support international efforts to provide every woman the information and services needed to make informed choices about her health and future. #WorldContraceptionDay — PolitiTweet.org

And the costs are incalculable. When Rs ram this nom thru, our courts will be tainted for decades. The Senate may become damaged irreparably, even less capable of solving our country's problems. If we don't change course, ultimately it's the American people who suffer most. https://t.co/nPRkgLtESW — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

Pandemic or not, don’t think for a second that Senate Rs are not rushing this nominee through in part to have a guaranteed vote to kill the #ACA & strip healthcare protections from MILLIONS of Americans. SCOTUS is hearing the Republican-led lawsuit on Nov. 10. https://t.co/mtmLCZjOu6 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

While Senate Rs grasp for fig leaves to justify their hypocrisy, Pres. Trump is saying he’s counting on this vacancy to deliver him the White House when he challenges the election results. NOTHING could be more corrosive to the courts and indeed the Republic. https://t.co/hNKNexi8gP — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

While the nation mourns loss of Justice Ginsburg, Senate Rs are tripping over themselves & violating every precedent & principle—including one THEY INVENTED in 2016 to block Pres. Obama's SCOTUS nom—to replace her. Every R knows in their hearts this is wrong. https://t.co/jYaYI6jZ26 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

WATCH: This morning I told my @SenJudiciary Republican colleagues how much damage they are doing to the Courts, the Senate, Americans' rights, even the memory of Justice Ginsburg—all before she’s been buried. They may disregard, but I will not be silent. https://t.co/wjptNtBqf4 — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @vermontgov @VermontLib and the efforts of the excellent Complete Count Committee on rising to 5th in the nation for #Census2020 responses. 99% of households have been counted, but the final 1% is still critical.

What we heard from President Trump tonight rings of rhetoric we hear from dictators around the world. A refusal to accept a peaceful transition of power & a thinly veiled suggestion to "get rid of" legitimately cast votes. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

The comments by President Trump tonight are as dangerous as they are undemocratic. They are unprecedented in our history. I implore leaders from both parties to take this seriously and condemn it forcefully. — PolitiTweet.org

All this adventurism with taxpayer money and we STILL don’t have enough of what the funds were originally appropriated for—N95 masks. It’s not just an unprecedented crisis, it’s an unprecedented refusal to do anything about it. /X — PolitiTweet.org

Our letter highlights the urgent need for the Admin to use the funds we gave them, making clear that the use of Defense funds for industry does “little to keep the American people safe from the most imminent threat,” which is COVID-19 /2 https://t.co/NRZ1ZWJOZe https://t.co/VOj52kxLJ1 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

Instead of rushing to prove blind loyalty to Trump, the Senate should honor the legacy of #RBG. I tried to do that Monday. She dedicated her life to making #equality under law a reality for millions. Her words were powerful & prescient, more relevant than ever today: WATCH: https://t.co/osTQc4GJwx — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Patrick Leahy @SenatorLeahy

I wish this were shocking but Rs have abandoned our constitutional duty to provide actual advice & consent. They rubberstamp even the most unqualified & extreme Trump noms (here even a NON-EXISTENT one). Senate Rs may as well move their offices into the White House. — PolitiTweet.org
