Back in November 2017, I called on Equatorial Guinean President Obiang to release Ramon Esono - the artist who he had wrongfully jailed for criticizing the country’s corrupt, undemocratic leader. Now that his fight for freedom is over, it was great to meet with Ramon today in DC. https://t.co/h1OJa4Z6WB — PolitiTweet.org

I’m calling on the DoD OIG to investigate the withholding of Ukraine military aid appropriated by Congress, allegedly at the direction of the White House. The delay raises questions about whether DoD officials were involved in any scheme to target a political opponent. https://t.co/taGRQ2Olil — PolitiTweet.org

Instead, it’s time for Pres. Trump & the GOP-controlled Senate to stop stalling & call a vote on the Bipartisan Background Checks Act. This legislation has already passed through the House – we are utterly failing the American people if we can't even hold a vote on the matter. — PolitiTweet.org

There was an overwhelming amount of energy, emotion, and compassion at the #EndGunViolence rally in Washington today. The American people have made it clear – now is not the time to ‘go very slowly’ on gun safety, as the President has said. https://t.co/mKdmbid1KL — PolitiTweet.org

For now the 2nd time in 6 months, GOP & Dem Senators came together to put the Constitution over the President’s so-called ‘national emergency’ declaration. The President must not be allowed to take funding away from our military just so he can build his useless border wall. — PolitiTweet.org

The refusal of the President and Attorney General to release the whistleblower report as required by law has also convinced me that an impeachment inquiry is the only course we can follow under our Constitution to make certain the American people know the facts. — PolitiTweet.org

Because the White House refuses to respond to Congressional subpoenas, I feel a formal impeachment inquiry is the only way to pursue this critical investigation, which I believe will ultimately be tested in the courts. — PolitiTweet.org

His admission that he solicited negative info from the Pres. of Ukraine concerning his potential opponent, Joe Biden, while withholding $250M in US security aid for Ukraine is beneath the dignity of any President & by any reasonable legal standard merits an impeachment inquiry. — PolitiTweet.org

More American troops to the Saudi peninsula is a dangerous escalation. Not enough troops to make a difference & too many American lives at risk. Pres. Trump’s Iran strategy goes from bad to worse. https://t.co/mgzyl8O3u0 — PolitiTweet.org

The details in this story are disturbing, but unsurprising. For far too long, we’ve allowed e-cigarettes companies like JUUL to target our children with their dangerous and addictive products. This is the result. #VapingTargetsKids https://t.co/HZxMkCU9uI — PolitiTweet.org

Another weekend of tragic gun violence in Chicago. The House did its job and passed commonsense gun safety reforms over 200 days ago. Leader McConnell has yet to even call a vote. The Senate must be better than this. https://t.co/EtSjPeOVVH — PolitiTweet.org

Over 200 days ago the House passed a bipartisan background check bill, but the Senate has yet to call a vote on the bill. Today at @SinaiChicago I called on the Senate to stand with the 90 percent of Americans who support background checks and take action on gun violence. https://t.co/ZesfvNBhtN — PolitiTweet.org
