If we do not #ActOnClimate, climate change could slash up to 10% of our GDP by 2100 – that is double the losses of the Great Recession. https://t.co/HE4vJs7EHH — PolitiTweet.org

According to our nation’s leading scientists, climate change unchecked means more sea level rise – costing coastal communities like the ones in my state trillions of dollars in economic damages over the next 80 years. #ActOnClimate https://t.co/JO1XYfHwsX — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

According to @NOAA: 🚨 In 2017, extreme weather cost Americans $300 billion in economic damages 🚨 The federal government spent $120 billion in disaster spending for four extreme weather events in 2017 🚨 These numbers will be a drop in the bucket if we do not #ActOnClimate — PolitiTweet.org

A clear majority of Americans want Congress to address our growing #climatecrisis. We should be having a fact-based, policy-driven conversation about tackling it. And we should be talking about the real costs that confront us – including the costs of inaction. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Sadly, some of our GOP colleagues have been trying to make a mockery of the very real concerns and passionate calls to #ActOnClimate we’re hearing from people across the country and around the world. On an issue as serious as this one, we should be serious about addressing it. — PolitiTweet.org

When I was a Naval Flight Officer stationed outside San Francisco waiting to be deployed to Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War, I celebrated the first-ever Earth Day. As I hear the rising chorus of calls for #climate action, I hear the sounds of that day in Golden Gate Park. — PolitiTweet.org

This #InternationalWomensMonth, I’m visiting women-owned small businesses in Delaware that are truly the backbone of our economy. Today, I visited Lisa St. Clair who owns Tailbangers, a gourmet dog treat bakery in Millsboro where employees hand cut 20,000 treats a day! https://t.co/0vTYvSQ9YD — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This is not a time for derision, nor is it a time for division. I’m heading down to the Senate floor soon to urge my Republican colleagues to work with @SenateDems and #ActOnClimate. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Attorney General Barr has responded to Congress, but, after a nearly two year investigation, a four page summary isn’t enough. The American people deserve the full truth. #ReleaseTheReport — PolitiTweet.org

A beautiful Delaware blue sky greeted us for the @americanlungde 56th Annual @crhalfmarathon this morning! This race supports clean air for healthy lungs so we can all enjoy being outdoors on days like today! #crhalf https://t.co/ib9YIWW7HW — PolitiTweet.org

Special Counsel Mueller has completed yet another tour of duty. Now, his report must be made public. The American people deserve to know the whole truth. https://t.co/gXpCC6BLEv — PolitiTweet.org

The brightest spot of my visit to @HeadStartgov Leslie Johnson Center in Wilmington was reading (and singing!) “Pete the Cat” with students, faculty, and my dear friend @RepLBR. https://t.co/uHt741Pzym — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

While @realDonaldTrump enjoyed five draft deferments, John McCain risked his life for our country, suffered unimaginable brutality in captivity and refused to leave his comrades behind. I know a hero when I see one. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

My friend John McCain stepped forward and answered our nation's call to serve. And serve us he did, like few others have. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Critical military projects in every state are at risk of being cut because of the President's overreach. I urge my all colleagues: Take a close look at the projects @realDonaldTrump thinks are less important than his campaign promise and vote to override his veto. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Once again, President Trump is ignoring the Constitution, disregarding a coequal branch of our government and diverting funds from our military to build his long-promised wall. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I’ve worked hard – along with our congressional delegation – to secure hundreds of millions in federal funds for important projects at Dover Air Force Base, including the new C-5M maintenance hangar. Today, DAFB is regarded by many as the finest airlift base in the world. https://t.co/ZAeFCgje03 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Dover Air Force Base is home to some of the nation’s most impressive aircraft fleet. Over the past nine years, C-5M flight crews operating out of Dover and @Travis60AMW have set a total of 89 world records — making the C-5M the world's top aviation record holder. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

In Delaware, Dover Air Force Base could potentially lose funding for a hangar where we repair and maintain a critical cargo aircraft, known as the C-5M, simply to fulfill @realDonaldTrump’s campaign promise. That is shortsighted and wrong. https://t.co/Z0gdgjaFCs — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As a retired Navy captain and naval flight officer, I understand how important it is to make sure the brave men and women who protect our nation have the resources they need to do their work effectively. https://t.co/JuemeotpOG — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

By stripping funding from projects across the world that help the brave men and women of our military do their jobs, @realDonaldTrump is threatening our nation’s security. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

But now, they’re on the chopping block to pay for @realDonaldTrump's massive wall that a majority of Americans oppose and experts acknowledge will be ineffective. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Here's a list of military projects across the world — from Delaware to Australia — that the Department of Defense told us were their highest priority investments and that Congress voted to fund in a bipartisan manner. https://t.co/Zb9zvkqRyh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

First, @realDonaldTrump said Mexico was going to pay for a wall across our Southern border. Mexico said no. Then he said taxpayers should pay for it. And Congress said no — repeatedly. Now, to get his way, he wants our military to bear the enormous costs. — PolitiTweet.org
