DOJ must ensure online marketplaces are combating #COVID19 fraud & price gouging, & must investigate any fraudulent applications to the Paycheck Protection Program and other attempted scams. Today I pressed DOJ's COVID-19 Hoarding & Price Gouging Task Force on these issues. https://t.co/LBRUa3wrZU — PolitiTweet.org

The right to peacefully protest is a bedrock principle of our democracy & I am concerned by reports of ICE & CBP officers using force against Americans exercising that right.

An overwhelming majority of Americans support #DACA recipients — 95% of Democrats, 73% of Republicans, 84% of Independents, and 85% total. #SCOTUS should not allow President Trump to repeal #DACA & put the lives of 800,000 #Dreamers at risk. #HomeIsHere — PolitiTweet.org

Most favor keeping DACA in place and upholding the nation's abortion access law, Roe v. Wade. https://t.co/WoXLhOtKgy

When it comes to the worst insensitivity, it’s a tie. A President who declares “a great day” for George Floyd or FOX which charts a history of positive economic growth after racial tragedies. Sad and sickening. — PolitiTweet.org

Today is #MomsEqualPay Day marking how far into 2020 US moms must work to be paid same as US dads in 2019. It’s even worse when looking at racial disparities—Black moms only make 50 cents for every $1 earned by white men. We must change how we value work. That starts w/#EqualPay. https://t.co/XsyeINyPhm — PolitiTweet.org
