Well, that's just entirely untrue, @realDonaldTrump. An accurate #2020Census will impact decisions made at all levels of our government and at businesses that drive our economy. Adding such a controversial question will likely decrease the response rate and waste taxpayer dollars — PolitiTweet.org

Last month, @RepDonBeyer and I traveled with our colleagues to the Northern Triangle to see firsthand the conditions that force so many in the region to flee for their lives and seek safe haven at our Southern border. He’s right. Cutting off aid will cause more migration. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Until we address the misery in their homelands — misery the US is complicit in — we will continue to see migrants desperately seeking safe haven at our border. Cutting funds to address their misery could add to the problem at the border. Read my statement: https://t.co/XzlWwKf4gR — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve said it before and l say it again: no wall from sea to shining sea, no barrier and no single deterrent policy will keep families in Central America from fleeing for their lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This is shortsighted, senseless and not a serious solution. Any serious solution to irregular migration at our Southern border must include a plan to address the root causes of the issue. https://t.co/Ori5yD4eee — PolitiTweet.org

This #WomensHistoryMonth, as we celebrate the achievements of women in American history, we must remember that our work to ensure equality is not over. Today, I’m proud to stand alongside the U.S. women’s soccer team players as they fight for what’s right. https://t.co/VMsIYd6R9H — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I like to say, find out what works and do more of that. News flash, @realDonaldTrump: the Affordable Care Act is working. We can improve and expand health care, but taking away affordable, quality care from millions of Americans is not an option. https://t.co/mZBLeoGDAJ — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you Heather and Lindsay of @SWEtalk for stopping by during #WomensHistoryMonth to discuss the value of diversity and inclusion in the workplace and share how you're working to empower women from around the First State to reach their fullest potential. https://t.co/vcsWbJQFAs — PolitiTweet.org

Administrator Wheeler raised this question during his confirmation hearing. But @EPA’s PFAS Action Plan fails to answer that question, and only leads to another: Where is @EPA’s urgency on #PFAS contamination? https://t.co/ynTtmW6hLm — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This is not just a problem in Delaware. #PFAS contamination is widespread, found in red states and blue states, in small water systems and large ones, from dairy farms in Maine to Air Force bases in Alaska. https://t.co/qqRiFO0b2C — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Just last year in Delaware, the town of Blades alerted 1,000+ residents to stop drinking and cooking with public water because of #PFAS contamination. Up Route 13, sampled groundwater wells on Dover Air Force Base reportedly showed dangerously high levels of PFOS and PFOA. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Andrew Wheeler said this just a week ago, yet @EPA is simply not approaching #PFAS contamination with nearly the same urgency and zeal with which it repeals Obama-era environmental safeguards. Americans deserve to see urgency on this issue. https://t.co/baGE0uL2Hw — PolitiTweet.org

Issues the Trump Administration claims to care about depend on the #ACA, including: - Lowering drug prices - Fighting the opioid crisis - Ending the HIV epidemic Scrapping the ACA like the Trump Administration is trying to do means scrapping our progress on those policies, too — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Republicans running for reelection last year liked to say they support protections for 130 million Americans with pre-existing conditions - despite voting 70 times to repeal them. Now Trump is once again trying to gut those protections. It's time to prove what side you're on. — PolitiTweet.org

“…while this report does not conclude that the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him” I want to see more of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s own words. https://t.co/KXALmM7aBy — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

For two decades @SenatorTomUdall has been a crucial partner and a congressional champion on fighting #climatechange, conserving public lands and protecting families from toxic chemicals. We are a safer, healthier country for his service. https://t.co/xUzqTe2HaN — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Climate change is real. Human activity is the dominant cause. Congress must act. Now let’s get to work. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

To the American people: Don’t be fooled or distracted by these political games. We cannot allow cynicism to win. We can reduce our nation’s carbon footprint, strengthen our economy and support those most vulnerable among us. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The president’s failed leadership on #climatechange threatens our health, our economy, U.S. competitiveness and our future. And sadly, most of our @SenateGOP friends have been applauding the president with every action. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Instead of pursuing any ideas to #ActOnClimate, this administration has: ❌ ignored climate science ❌ defunded clean energy research ❌ rolled back climate action ❌ walked away from provisions that would help protect Americans from rising floods and other extreme weather events — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Scientists tell us that unchecked climate change means more frequent and intense storms – meaning bomb cyclones, intense rainfalls and category five hurricanes become the new normal. No matter where we live, we can’t ignore the reality of climate change. #ClimateChangeIsReal — PolitiTweet.org
