My prayers are with the victims of this tragic shooting and their families. We are also grateful for the bravery of our first responders.   It’s time we had a long overdue reckoning with our nation’s epidemic of gun violence. We have had too many of these tragedies. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, millions of people will lose their unemployment benefits. It’s time for President Trump to get off the golf course, end this uncertainty, and sign the bipartisan stimulus bill that passed Congress. His delay is endangering the livelihoods of families across America. — PolitiTweet.org
