For the 2nd week in a row, Senate Republicans have confirmed a Circuit Court nominee with a record of hostility toward the ACA. Even during one of the greatest public health crises in our nation’s history, Republicans just won’t let go of their obsession with attacking Obamacare. — PolitiTweet.org

The Strengthening America's Health Care Readiness Act would provide a historic investment into the @NHSCorps & National Disaster Medical System to boost our health emergency surge capacity & restore the pipeline of health professionals. Read more here: https://t.co/bQtXwBh1ZD — PolitiTweet.org

Our health care professionals are doing heroic work to fight #COVID19, but this crisis has highlighted the need to bolster our health workforce to address shortages, medical disparities, & respond to emergencies. I'm partnering with @SenRubioPress to get it done. — PolitiTweet.org

I hope Sen. McConnell will allow Republicans & Democrats to sit down and try to work together in good faith to reach a bipartisan agreement. Let’s seize this moment and work together. Let’s finally make the necessary changes that will create a safer, more just America. — PolitiTweet.org

Senate Republicans’ police reform proposal fails to meet this historic moment with the real change that people are calling for. We owe it to all of the Black & Brown lives we have lost to brutal acts of racial injustice to take real action to bring about justice & accountability. https://t.co/39xHaRNADn — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why @ChuckGrassley and I introduced legislation to help ensure that the most vulnerable prisoners are quickly released or transferred to home confinement for the remainder of their sentence – just as the First Step Act intended. https://t.co/tJKYzykhWY — PolitiTweet.org

The Republican police reform bill fails to meet the moment. Republicans & Democrats should work in good faith to reach a bipartisan agreement.

For the 2nd week in a row, the Senate is voting on a Circuit Court nominee who has been openly hostile toward the Affordable Care Act. Cory Wilson is an extreme partisan with radical views on health care & voting rights. I strongly oppose his nomination. #StopWilson — PolitiTweet.org

My bipartisan, bicameral bill w/ @BillPascrell & @RepRoKhanna would protect American workers and end the abuse of the H-1B program, while ensuring employers could still hire talented immigrant workers when no qualified American is available to do the job. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

This is not the right approach. We need to mend the H-1B program, not end it. Instead of suspending H-1B visas, the Trump Admin should ask Congress to pass the H-1B and L-1 Visa Reform Act of 2020, which reforms the H-1B program with a scalpel, not a sledgehammer. — PolitiTweet.org
