91% of Americans support @USPS. It's time to tell President Trump to stop manipulating the Postal Service for his political purposes. Will any Republicans join Democrats in standing up for @USPS? https://t.co/DdLUImaBIZ — PolitiTweet.org

Pres. Trump made a mess of the pandemic & now he’s making a mess of the postal service. Sen. McConnell should bring the Senate back to Washington immediately to stop the destruction of @USPS—we never should have left without making a deal on #COVID19 relief in the first place. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday was the 85th anniversary of Social Security, an earned bedrock program that millions rely on. The President’s version of celebrating is to undermine the program via his recent executive order. Democrats stand committed to protecting this promise of a secure retirement. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressional Democrats are willing to meet Republicans half way on #COVID19 relief, but we can’t talk to an empty chair. When negotiations resume, I hope Sen. McConnell and Rep. McCarthy will actually show up this time. The American people need Congress to do its job. https://t.co/BRhkm2rWXC — PolitiTweet.org

Every American must be able to safely exercise their right to vote. The Trump Administration’s ongoing efforts to delay mail & the delivery of mail-in ballots during this pandemic are abhorrent.

During this unprecedented time—the confluence of a deadly pandemic and an election where voting by mail will be more necessary than ever—an effective Postal Service is vital to public health and our democracy. More on my thoughts in @Suntimes: https://t.co/FXBdV97KtR — PolitiTweet.org

80% of Black moms are the breadwinners in their home, meaning they can’t afford to get sick or stay home during this pandemic. That’s one of the many reasons why we must expand paid leave in the next round of #COVID19 relief. — PolitiTweet.org

“They don’t have the money to do the universal mail-in voting. So therefore, they can’t do it, I guess,” says the one person holding up funding for @USPS. We can't let the President get away with this. We must fund the Postal Service. https://t.co/V9EaICKqoT — PolitiTweet.org

The President’s executive order on unemployment benefits was a cheap political stunt. The only realistic way to extend these benefits is by passing comprehensive #COVID19 relief through Congress, which @SenateGOP have been blocking since May. https://t.co/i7TtEGGDe1 — PolitiTweet.org
