Mass shootings are an almost daily occurrence in America today. And every time, the same question comes before us: what are we going to do about it? Democrats are ready to move on gun safety legislation. Republicans refuse to join us. And the cycle of violence goes on. — PolitiTweet.org

We are a nation that has become traumatized by gun violence. If that much wasn’t obvious already, the scene at Nationals Park on Saturday should serve as evidence: Americans have come to accept and even expect mass shootings as a possibility anywhere in America. — PolitiTweet.org

Hundreds of thousands of young people in this country live every day in fear of their family being torn apart. They deserve better. Congress must finally end this nightmare by providing Dreamers with a pathway to citizenship. And we need to do it as soon as possible. https://t.co/axnrPe4KCe — PolitiTweet.org

January 6, 2021, was a deadly, shameful, and now infamous day in American history. The officers who defended the Capitol that day—and every American, for that matter—deserve answers for what happened that day and who is responsible for it. https://t.co/IZnyLvYLvi — PolitiTweet.org

Every year, John Lewis led a pilgrimage to some of the sacred places of the civil rights movement. On the first anniversary of his death, I keep this memory close. I miss my friend.
