If we're going to stem the tide of climate change, so much more needs to be done—and we need to act fast. The federal government needs to be galvanized to address the climate crisis and move our country to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions. https://t.co/9QdQxo3Gx4 — PolitiTweet.org

All Senators will soon take an oath to swear to "do impartial justice according to the Constitution and laws." Our oath is not to a political party or the President, but to the Constitution. I hope all of my colleagues meet this moment with the seriousness it deserves. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Our planet just experienced its second-hottest year on record in 2019. The last decade was the hottest decade in the history of our planet. Australia is on fire, the Arctic is melting and our seas are rising. We need to act fast. https://t.co/wCexvcskvt — PolitiTweet.org

It’s simple: fair trials require witnesses and evidence. Everyone – including the President – should want a fair trial. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

We had a chance to defend our elections against foreign interference since 2016, but still those bipartisan bills sit in @SenateMajLdr’s #LegislativeGraveyard. American voters should determine the outcome of elections – not foreign governments. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

We’ve seen this movie before. Our intelligence community overwhelmingly confirmed that Russia’s interference in 2016 was unprecedented and could happen again and so did Special Counsel Mueller – and they were right. The only difference is that Russia's target is a new candidate. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

NEW LETTER: If reports are true that @CBP detained U.S. citizens at ports of entry or airports based solely on their Iranian national origin, that is a clear violation of our nation's values and @CBP guidance. @SenFeinstein, @PattyMurray and I are demanding answers from @CBP. https://t.co/zvFvhQnqbZ — PolitiTweet.org

For decades @EPA has made sure states do their part to prevent pollution from harming water quality in the Chesapeake Bay. Now we need to make sure EPA does its job. — PolitiTweet.org

America's coal industry is not and never was collapsing under the weight of commonsense protections for public health and the environment. America's coal industry is failing because cleaner energy choices are also cheaper. https://t.co/UkBE7eFfiK — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

It's why @ChrisCoons and I joined fellow @SenateDems on this letter led by @PattyMurray to tell the Trump Administration’s @US_FDA that we must do better than this partial ban on e-cigarettes. Our kids’ health depends on it. https://t.co/8t4B5xO4lF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The Trump Administration's partial ban on e-cigarettes falls short of the complete ban we should be fighting for. Vaping will continue to pose a serious threat to Americans, especially our kids, and will cost our nation greatly – both in health care dollars and lives lost. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

By directing federal agencies to disregard long-term and cumulative impacts of projects, this administration's #NEPA rollback takes a sledgehammer to decades of legal precedence and puts our communities at risk https://t.co/YhYYOaTYwj — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

We know where @realDonaldTrump stands on health care because he's spent the last 3 years trying to take it away from millions of Americans. He should have the courage to run on his record — not attempt to delay a decision because its politically convenient. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

.@JohnKerry sets the record straight on #JCPOA – the deal @realDonaldTrump destroyed that would have prevented Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Now, the Iranians are not only poised to restart their nuclear program, but we're closer to war. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

It’s fair to want to know the rules of the road. And it’s crazy to not allow relevant witnesses and evidence to be considered in a trial. I’m glad @SpeakerPelosi is sticking to her guns. https://t.co/55DAX2csrF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Robocalls are time consuming, frustrating, and often nefarious. That's why I'm proud to have co-sponsored the recently passed #TRACEDAct so we can finally combat these fraudulent calls and save Delawareans time, money and peace of mind. https://t.co/2hZAZTLWVt — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

50 years ago, the landmark National Environmental Policy Act became law. What followed was decades of environmental progress that went hand in hand with public participation in the federal decision-making process. This proposal would drastically weaken implementation of #NEPA. — PolitiTweet.org

Today the Trump Administration proposed what could be the most significant effort yet to limit environmental protection. https://t.co/LeIvFnC68t — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I’m proud to join @timkaine's bipartisan effort. It’s simple: before any administration starts a war and sends Americans into battle, those of us in Congress should have to debate the merits and take a vote. We are free to disagree, but we can't be afraid to say where we stand. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Trump’s lack of strategy, in a matter of weeks, has given the most extreme voices in Iran exactly what they wanted. I will remain optimistic that a long-term strategy emerges — but I fear that counting on that outcome may be the triumph of hope over experience.

It is hard to understand how Americans are safer tonight. My thoughts and prayers are with the brave men and women serving our nation in Iraq and their loved ones watching these events unfold from afar. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

@realDonaldTrump says his destructive trade tactics have benefited U.S. businesses and consumers. FACT CHECK --> "Approximately 100% of import taxes" are falling onto Americans. Make no mistake, this trade war only served to hurt our economy. https://t.co/7yk4kERxVT — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I stand with @PPDelaware that, every day, provides critical health care services to Delaware families across our state. Together, Delawareans stand united against acts of hate and intimidation in our communities. https://t.co/eCihtdjDRe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This morning, I had a chance to welcome the new President of Delaware Collrge of Art and Design, Jean Dalhgren to Delaware and meet some of the art school’s talented students. I’m excited to follow their promising futures! https://t.co/XxRVJUggtl — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Today, Americans woke up to the unsettling news that Iraqi lawmakers have voted to expel American troops — and U.S. anti-ISIS activities have been put on hold amid safety concerns. It is hard to see how the Trump administration’s actions have made us more safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Contrary to what the Secretary of State is claiming, tensions with Iran began to worsen AFTER the Trump Administration foolishly backed out of #JCPOA. — PolitiTweet.org
