Bishop Aretha Morton was a true public servant for over 40 years, and our hearts go out to her family and congregation today. Wilmington, and the entire state of Delaware, is a better place because of her pioneering spirit and nurturing personality. — PolitiTweet.org

The students at Sussex Academy did a great job collecting the school's recycling during my visit today. Nothing puts a smile on my face (or theirs) quite like recycling! ♻️ https://t.co/gEh2YIna7V — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we held a business meeting in the EPW Committee to adopt our rules for the 118th Congress. One change that I’m proud of is eliminating the requirement to print 100 copies of witness testimony for our hearings. This small change will help eliminate waste and save trees. 🌳 — PolitiTweet.org

#DYK 2022 was the most dangerous year on Delaware roads since 1988? We have to do better. Thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, @cityofwilmde is being awarded $200,000 to improve road safety for all, especially vulnerable users like pedestrians and cyclists. 🚧 🚶 🚴 — PolitiTweet.org

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember and mourn the 6 million Jews who were brutally murdered by the Nazis. We must continue to root out prejudice and hate here and around the world. Antisemitism should have no place in 2023. — PolitiTweet.org

I couldn't be more pleased with #WRDA2022 and the good the law is doing for Delaware. The investments we make now in our water resources are investments in a better, safer future. — PolitiTweet.org

At the mouth of the Murderkill River, #WRDA2022 is making it easier to place and maintain emergency signage. This single action will make boat operators better aware of hazardous conditions and bolster public safety. https://t.co/TKE0YI2QuK — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the IRA, millions of Americans who rely on insulin are spending less than ever before! I am fighting to make insulin more affordable because no one should go bankrupt trying to pay for life-saving medication. We must keep this up! — PolitiTweet.org

After the tragedies of this past week, I refuse to believe Congress can’t reform our gun laws to make mass shootings less likely. That’s why I am once again joining @SenFeinstein's bill to renew the Assault Weapons Ban. We must act to get military-style weapons off our streets. — PolitiTweet.org

My thanks to the Chinese American Community Center in Hockessin for welcoming me today. While the festival was beautiful, last night’s tragic mass shooting in Monterey Park, CA was on our minds. We must stand up to this hatred and continue our work to prevent gun violence. https://t.co/CZc2K3Mf51 — PolitiTweet.org
