.@RepBrianFitz & I led 83 Members in urging support for #animalshelters & rescues. Even as these organizations struggle to stay afloat, they continue to provide emergency services benefiting #animalwelfare & public health, keeping pets w their families & strays off of the streets https://t.co/MMMjNlfERK — PolitiTweet.org

The #GeorgeFloyd #JusticeInPolicing Act passed the House four weeks ago today. Every day that Senate Republicans stall, racial injustice continues to occur in our communities.

Now is not the time to be timid in our response to systemic racism. I voted for H.R.7573 to remove statues honoring defenders of racism, slavery & segregation from the Capitol—like that of Chief Justice Taney, author of the 1857 Dred Scott ruling to uphold slavery. #RemoveHate https://t.co/u4rYQZAuA7 — PolitiTweet.org

Inequality is at the heart of issues from police brutality & mass incarceration to COVID-19. Understanding our past & confronting the systemic racism we see today is the only way to move forward as a nation.

I’m pleased the House passed my amendment taking this initiative one step further by supporting the development of a master plan for implementing energy savings measures across the DoD— measures that will save money and reduce energy waste without compromising readiness. — PolitiTweet.org

As FL becomes a COVID-19 hotspot, we are still facing a nat’l shortage of PPE. The Trump Admin has failed to use even 1/4 of the money allocated by Congress in March in #FamiliesFirst, or use the full power of the Defense Production Act. Lives are at stake. It’s past time to act! — PolitiTweet.org
