President Trump is once again using xenophobic language to try and distract from his horrendous response to #COVID19. 140,000+ Americans have died and tens of millions are unemployed—no amount of race baiting from the President is going to make us forget that. — PolitiTweet.org

La acción de hoy no es más que un comunicado de prensa partidista para infundir miedo y desalentar a los inmigrantes de participar en el Censo. — PolitiTweet.org

Just last year, SCOTUS rejected the Trump Admin's attempt to add a census question on citizenship, saying it 'seems to have been contrived.' Today’s action is nothing more than a partisan, fear-mongering press release to discourage immigrants from participating in the Census. — PolitiTweet.org

It's not too late for the President to demonstrate real leadership in this moment. He should take a minute to read the letter @SenDuckworth & I sent him today. He must refrain from this provocation, which is opposed by the Governor, Mayor, and other local leaders. https://t.co/9gzouM6RZy — PolitiTweet.org

If @realDonaldTrump actually wants to help reduce violence in American communities, he wouldn’t be sending in secret police with unmarked vehicles to snatch people off the street. That will only undermine local efforts & exacerbate existing tensions. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator McConnell’s “red line” on liability immunity for businesses will not make America safer. It would make the current situation even worse. Our top priority must be protecting workers and families from #COVID19—not protecting businesses from being held accountable. https://t.co/YTZ5GOfcl3 — PolitiTweet.org

I join @GovPritzker & @chicagosmayor in urging the Trump Admin. to refrain from taking any action in Chicago that resembles what occurred in Portland. Sending in secret police with unmarked vehicles to snatch people off the streets is not only unacceptable, it’s un-American. https://t.co/3pBVObhbMk — PolitiTweet.org
