That’s why @SenSherrodBrown and I introduced the Youth Tobacco Act of 2020. Our bill will get kid-friendly e-cig flavors off the market, stop tobacco companies from targeting kids with their ads, and curb the rise in the use of tobacco & e-cig products among our children. — PolitiTweet.org

Our nation is in the midst of a vaping epidemic that has now hooked five million kids—an increase of 135 percent over the past two years of the Trump Administration. We must not allow Big Vape and Big Tobacco to continue addicting an entire generation of kids to nicotine. — PolitiTweet.org

Leon Lederman was a giant in his field and won a Nobel prize for his efforts. It's devastating that he had to auction off his gold medal to cover medical bills. My prayers are with his friends and family. https://t.co/rKFIjAFqcd — PolitiTweet.org

Any legitimate trial has witnesses, documents, and evidence. What Senator McConnell has been describing, to do away with those things entirely, looks more like a cover-up. Will four Republican Senators stand up for a fair trial? https://t.co/vEyH29sBCp — PolitiTweet.org

Good to see the House pass a War Powers Resolution today with bipartisan support to keep Pres. Trump from starting a war all on his own. The Senate must do the same & pass my resolution with @timkaine. Congress alone has the Constitutional power to decide whether to declare war. — PolitiTweet.org

Next week the House will vote on a resolution introduced by @RepSusieLee to overturn Sec. DeVos’ new rule. I strongly urge my House colleagues to vote to pass this resolution. Defrauded students are entitled to this much-needed relief. Don’t let Betsy DeVos take that away. — PolitiTweet.org

Betsy DeVos has made it clear that she sides with predatory #4profit colleges over the students they defrauded. Her new borrower defense rule makes it almost impossible for defrauded borrowers to get the relief to which they are entitled under federal law. — PolitiTweet.org

In yesterday’s briefing, the Trump Admin could only give us general conclusions about any Iranian threats to the U.S. – zero specificity. So much intelligence was left off the table. https://t.co/Ts62WjcKdd — PolitiTweet.org

By falsifying its tests, ArcelorMittal has lied to state regulators and everyone who lives in the Lake Michigan watershed. Strong enforcement from the U.S. EPA is required. The Clean Water Act makes it clear that ArcelorMittal must be held accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

This story in the @chicagotribune is alarming. It reveals an apparent cover-up by ArcelorMittal of its pollution of the Little Calumet River, which would be a clear violation of federal law. https://t.co/9CZj80FAVQ — PolitiTweet.org

In our letter, we also shared our grave concerns with the President’s repeated comments about using our military to target Iranian cultural sites. Such an order would be illegal and entirely inconsistent with American values. Should that order be given, it must not be followed. — PolitiTweet.org

If Pres. Trump wants to send more American troops to the Middle East, it is important that he briefs Congress on his plans to do so. Yesterday @SenSchumer, @SenJackReed, and I wrote to Defense Sec.

The President’s plan to ban some of the e-cig flavor pods that are hooking our kids on nicotine is an important step, but is not enough. Menthol must be added to the list of banned flavors, & liquid nicotine flavors—like gummy bear—should be removed from the market. https://t.co/K7GyJK6Fma — PolitiTweet.org

Congress must not be a rubber stamp for President Trump’s worst instincts. Any member—on either side of the aisle—who wants a war with Iran needs to step up, face their constituents, and record their vote accordingly. I gladly welcome the chance to do so myself. https://t.co/8r8nvDS6HE — PolitiTweet.org
