This question is just as important today as it was a year ago— and it remains unanswered. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I will continue to oppose these new regulations, and do whatever I can to ensure that the ESA relies on science to protect the wildlife and biodiversity at the heart of our country’s environment and economy. My statement: https://t.co/TaXu8vF49e — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This move from @realdonaldtrump take us backwards at a dangerous time for wildlife. A UN report just months ago said a million species are at risk, and spelled out the economic and public health impacts of widespread extinction https://t.co/QRBY2Z3ICN — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Despite overwhelming opposition, these new regulations could weaken the law’s decades-long dependence on science by allowing the federal government to analyze the economic impacts of ESA protections for imperiled species — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

In a time of crisis for wildlife around the world, today the Trump Administration unveiled rules undercutting core provisions that have made the #EndangeredSpeciesAct one of the most popular, successful environmental laws in American history https://t.co/55bZs74kmA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The #EndangeredSpeciesAct has supported the recovery of important wildlife across the country and around the world, including the Red Knot and the Piping Plover, two beloved bird species in Delaware — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

But instead of expanding this important program, @realDonaldTrump has sought to slash funding, cut staff, and demote the @DHSgov agency. As a result, our nation remains vulnerable to targeted violence from within our borders. We can and must do better. https://t.co/DiOTXBSyYk — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

It is abundantly clear that we must address the threats of domestic terrorism. When I served as the top Democrat on @HSGAC, I fought for funding to give local communities tools to stop online radicalization and counter violent extremism. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Law enforcement should not use limited time and resources to target families living peacefully in and contributing to our communities. The priority must be criminals who pose a serious threat — not ripping families apart. https://t.co/UypbgT9Jnz — PolitiTweet.org

@NAMIDelaware @SarahEMcBride I believe that together, we can solve the problem of surprise medical bills that is becoming all too common for so many families. I’m even more optimistic after meeting with so many Delawareans who like me, are committed to ending surprise medical bills. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

@NAMIDelaware Thank you to Delaware’s health care professionals and state leaders for sharing your feedback on a bill I believe is a middle ground approach to a growing issue. And thank you to @SarahEMcBride and others who shared their stories about a bill they received, but didn't plan for. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

@NAMIDelaware The STOP Surprise Medical Bills Act takes the burden off of the patient. I believe that patients should be able to focus on getting healthy rather than having to negotiate over their medical bills. https://t.co/KMSt3zbTVs — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Today, I was proud to host an important roundtable at @NAMIDelaware to discuss a common sense, bipartisan bill I introduced with some of my colleagues that will protect patients in Delaware and across the country from surprise medical bills. https://t.co/rvyaUB0jPC — PolitiTweet.org

Exciting news out of Magnolia: construction of a new Caesar Rodney Elementary School is underway! In Delaware, we continue to invest in our students, teachers and schools because we know it’s one of the most important things we can do as elected officials. https://t.co/kmia8mUa2b — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I stopped by Smyrna’s @BGClubsDE to see its renovations and discuss the work that remains to ensure our kids have a safe environment to learn and grow. My favorite part of the visit was meeting with boys and girls whose futures are made brighter by this community center. https://t.co/qxQ59tw0Tx — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This #NHCW19 and every week, I am grateful for community health centers like @Westsidehealth, Henrietta Johnson Medical Center, and La Red Health Center that provide so many Delawareans with exceptional health services at a price they can afford. — PolitiTweet.org

Hey @SenJohnBarrasso, greetings from Wyoming, Delaware! https://t.co/UH8MlFEfVT — PolitiTweet.org

These buses aren’t just cleaner—they run quieter, accelerate faster and they’re 4-5 times more efficient than their diesel-run counterparts. https://t.co/JFzQZmZTX8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

With this funding, the First State will soon have 20 electric buses on its roads, helping the residents of Kent County—and Delawareans from across the state—reach their destination in a more efficient and environmentally friendly way — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Here in Dover with @JohnCarneyDE @RepLBR @Dartfirststate to announce some exciting news: $2.6 million in @FTA_DOT grant funding for Delaware Transit Corporation to purchase low or no emission buses, like the one behind us 🔌 https://t.co/jss2SZei69 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The House already passed a bipartisan bill ⁠— that the majority of Americans support ⁠— to conduct background checks for gun sales. Now, in light of 2 horrific mass shootings in less than 24 hours, the Senate must act. @senatemajldr must put this bill up for a vote immediately — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

We know the common sense measures that can protect our families and reduce gun violence. We know the steps that must be taken to counter the homegrown extremism that does not threaten us from overseas, but from within. Now we must have the courage to act. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

In fact, Scripture tells us that prayer without action is powerless. And it’s long past time that we took meaningful action to address the epidemic of gun violence that uniquely plagues our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Today, I know I’m not alone in praying for the victims of these senseless attacks in El Paso and in Dayton and for their loved ones who are living a nightmare right now. But to all my colleagues in Congress: we can pray and move our feet at the same time. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I believe elections should be decided by the American people and it’s why I joined @SenateDems this week to introduce a constitutional amendment to restore integrity to our country’s campaign finance system. Read more about it here: https://t.co/dAUUZio1rS — PolitiTweet.org

The Supreme Court’s #CitizensUnited decision upended campaign finance laws, allowing a few wealthy individuals to wield big influence over the electoral process in secret. — PolitiTweet.org
