In the week leading up to this hearing, two mass shootings have left the nation reeling. And it's not just mass shootings: according to the CDC, on average, 109 Americans lose their lives every day to gun violence. It's long past time to act on this nation's gun violence epidemic — PolitiTweet.org

Now that @MartyJWalsh has been confirmed, President Biden has all of his cabinet secretaries. The Senate confirmed his 15 nominees faster than both of the previous two administrations—all while dealing with COVID-19 and passing the American Rescue Plan. — PolitiTweet.org

I applaud the House for passing the American Dream and Promise Act. If the Senate follows suit, we would enact the most significant immigration legislation since 1986. As the original sponsor of the Dream Act, I hope we seize this moment. — PolitiTweet.org

There is a challenge at the border but we cannot return to the disastrous Trump zero-tolerance policy that separated thousands of families.
