The majority of Americans say they’re paying more in taxes under the #TrumpTax law. It’s why today, I joined my colleagues to introduce a bill that would finally provide tax cuts for hardworking middle-class families in Delaware and across the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations on this wonderful achievement, Esther! Keep making Delaware proud. — PolitiTweet.org

In Central America, we see lack of economic opportunity, violence, and corruption that has plagued the region and continues to force families to flee for their lives. In today’s @HSGAC hearing, I reminded top U.S. security officials why we should be working to address this. https://t.co/yA1ej6wJqI — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The Trump Administration’s "solution" to irregular migration at our border is inconsistent with both. If we want to fix the crisis, we must employ effective solutions—and focus on addressing the root causes. — PolitiTweet.org

Another guiding principle of mine is the call to action that is put forth in Matthew 25 – “I was hungry and you gave me food; I was thirsty and you gave me drink; I was a stranger in your land and you welcomed me.” — PolitiTweet.org

The greatest commandment of all, the Golden Rule, means treating others the way we want to be treated. This principle that guides every major religion, is one I try to keep in mind when I’m faced with a dilemma. — PolitiTweet.org

The most important part of any organization is leadership. This revolving door leadership at @DHSGov creates much uncertainty. And it’s not good for any of us. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

To see an agency as important as @DHSGov — tasked with working on cybersecurity, counterterrorism, and border security issues — in such turmoil, is unacceptable. https://t.co/tD61YNhxq2 — PolitiTweet.org

TUNE IN: In today's @HSGAC hearing, I'll talk about the crisis conditions in Central America that are driving families to flee their homes for the U.S. Southern border. A serious solution to irregular migration MUST improve conditions in their homelands. https://t.co/ABAw00mJRp — PolitiTweet.org

TUNE IN: In today's @HSGAC hearing, I'll talk about the real crisis in the Northern Triangle that is driving so many families to flee their homes for the Southern border. A serious solution to irregular migration MUST improve conditions in their homelands. https://t.co/ABAw00mJRp — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

We’re cutting off our nose to spite our face. Slashing funding to address the root causes driving families to the U.S. Southern border will not stem irregular migration. In fact, it will have the exact opposite effect. https://t.co/LDS0uCHC0g — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Proud to join @SenateDems and introduce a resolution that calls on the Trump Administration to reverse course on its plot to rip health care away from thousands of Delawareans and millions of Americans, including those with pre-existing conditions. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenateMajLdr and @SenateGOP refused to give Merrick Garland – an eminently qualified #SCOTUS nominee – a hearing. Now they’re trying to change Senate rules to speed up confirmation of @realDonaldTrump’s judicial nominees? This is beyond the pale. https://t.co/xj4O0SZzh2 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

It's time to put our resources behind finding a cure for Alzheimer’s and stopping this debilitating disease in its tracks. Thank you @alzassociation for your tireless advocacy so that – one day soon – we can finally find a cure for Alzheimer’s https://t.co/BYnCtjovQO — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

For my family, #Alzheimers is an issue that hits home. My mother had it. Her mother and her grandmother had it. I know firsthand that Alzheimer’s is a heartbreaking disease—for those afflicted with it, and for those who love them. I also know we in Congress can do more to help. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Still, in 2019, women in Delaware, and throughout the nation, on average make 80 cents to every dollar men make for the same work. It’s time to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act to ensure that men and women earn equal pay for equal work. #EqualPayDay https://t.co/WHJMfcLvGg — PolitiTweet.org

.@realDonaldTrump has it wrong. Families in Central America are arriving at the border because they are fleeing for their lives. Until we work with Northern Triangle countries to improve conditions in the region, we will continue to see irregular migration to our Southern border. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Families arriving at the U.S. Southern border are fleeing unspeakable violence. Until we address the misery in their homelands – misery America is complicit in due to its insatiable demand for drugs – we will continue seeing migrants desperately seeking safe haven at our border. — PolitiTweet.org
