We must continue to welcome migrants and refugees because it’s in our DNA and because we understand that their sacrifice, hard work, and love for our nation makes America stronger and better. — PolitiTweet.org

It is because of my mother, an immigrant from Lithuania, that I am the person I am today.   In 2022 alone, over 100 million people around the world were forcibly displaced from their homes. #InternationalMigrantsDay — PolitiTweet.org

Heartbroken for this family who will celebrate the holidays without their 16-year-old boy. And keeping the other three victims in my prayers. Progress was made in Congress this year. But w/ gun violence now the leading cause of death for America’s children, we must do more. — PolitiTweet.org

The Senate just passed a short term CR, which is essential to keeping the govt funded through Dec 23. But now, Congress must roll up its sleeves & pass an omnibus next week that adequately addresses our nation’s greatest challenges. We can't kick the can to the next Congress. — PolitiTweet.org

Think we have enough immigrants? Open your eyes. The best medical system in the world is being brought to its knees by a nursing crisis. I recently learned that a major Chicago hospital was buoyed by 30 Filipino immigrant nurses. We need immigration reform and we need it now. — PolitiTweet.org

I still remember hearing the news of Sandy Hook 10 years ago today. I could hardly believe it—20 little kids and 6 teachers & staff murdered. As we mark this grim anniversary, Congress must recommit ourselves to do more—more to protect our kids & more to prevent mass shootings. — PolitiTweet.org

At a time when the former President is calling for journalists to be jailed & referring to the press as the “enemy of the people,” it’s critical that we protect this pillar of our democracy. That’s why I cleared the PRESS Act for fast-track consideration. https://t.co/ZXfwZwP2Ia — PolitiTweet.org
