As Republicans on the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee give voice to dangerous conspiracy theories this morning, @C_C_Krebs is calling for all leaders to defend the truth. I look forward to hearing more from him at the hearing. https://t.co/Fby4orPF0p — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

President-elect @JoeBiden promised the American people that we will build back better. With @PeteButtigieg at the helm of the Department of Transportation, we will. I look forward to the work ahead of us to break ground on a better future for all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I urge my colleagues to prioritize Xavier’s confirmation, so that we can work together to bring an end to this pandemic and execute @JoeBiden's vision to strengthen the #ACA, address health disparities, and restore HHS’ mission to protect the health of all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Throughout his career @XavierBecerra has shown an unwavering commitment to protecting and expanding health care for American families and workers, especially those in vulnerable communities. It's clear he has the proven track record to take on the massive operation at @HHSGov. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Today, I had the pleasure of meeting with Attorney General @XavierBecerra, a distinguished and dedicated public servant whose decades of experience make him an exceptional candidate to lead @HHSGov at such a critical and challenging moment. https://t.co/VGC9yz2jMS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Passing my bipartisan agreement with @SenJohnKennedy and @SenJohnBarrasso to phase down HFCs would be the most significant climate solution out of Congress in more than a decade. It's good for the planet and good for the economy. Let's get it done. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

We each have a responsibility to keep our loved ones and ourselves safe during these trying times. That means ensuring we have access to quality, affordable health care.

Today is a new day in the First State's fight against COVID-19. Thank you, @JohnCarneyDE for your leadership during these unprecedented times. Those of us in Delaware are lucky to have a governor who is compassionate and guided by science. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Today's Electoral College certification represents our democracy's respect for the will of the people. It’s now past time for all of us – no matter who we voted for – to put aside our differences and come together as Americans to tackle our nation's most daunting challenges. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I'm proud to stand with a bipartisan group of my colleagues to say that we absolutely must pass additional COVID-19 relief now. This isn't a red state or a blue state issue. It's a United States issue. And it's long past time we deliver for Americans who desperately need help. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

8 years after an unthinkable and heartbreaking tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School, we continue to mourn the 26 lives and the innocence lost that day. But that’s not enough. We can't just offer our thoughts and prayers every year. We must #HonorWithAction to #EndGunViolence. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Did you know that Delaware is in the top 15 states seeing #ACA sign-ups over 40% higher than in 2019? Now more than ever it's clear how critical it is to have quality, affordable health care. So don't wait! The deadline to #GetCovered at https://t.co/3KDAz9OcAn is TOMORROW! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This is good news. Still, with fewer than 400 North Atlantic right whales alive today more must be done to protect this species. We need to pass the bipartisan SAVE Right Whales Act. #RightWhaleToSave — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As we wait to get vaccinated, we must continue to prioritize the health and safety of our communities. That means wearing a mask, staying home when you can, and social distancing. Together, we will get through this. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Today, Americans began receiving the Covid-19 vaccine. After a difficult year and months of darkness, there is certainly reason to celebrate this new season of hope. Thank you to the scientists, researchers and health care workers who’ve worked tirelessly to get us to this day. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

5 years ago, U.S. leadership pushed the historic Paris Climate Agreement across the finish line. In 39 days, we will re-enter this agreement under President-elect @JoeBiden's leadership. Our work doesn't stop there. Together we must #ActOnClimate. https://t.co/G3ni8JDwXu — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I strongly support providing security assistance to our ally Israel. But we must redouble our efforts to call on Israel to ensure its forces behave in accordance with international law. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Children should never be causalities of conflict. Ali Abu Alia, a 13-year-old Palestinian boy, was reportedly killed by Israeli forces in the West Bank. This is unacceptable. https://t.co/2ajkC5Gyn6 — PolitiTweet.org

The skills these students will learn as part of their aviation and ROTC training will not only contribute to our national security, they will also be an invaluable foundation for success in their military and civilian careers. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As an ROTC student who went on to serve as a naval flight officer, I’m especially proud we included the #FLIGHTAct in this bill. By investing in ROTC students in HBCUs like @DelStateUniv, we will break down barriers and build a diverse leadership corps in our military. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

During these hard times, it was also critically important to deliver for Delawareans. I’m glad to say that we were able to secure investments to modernize Delaware Air National Guard's fleet of C-130 aircraft and funding to support Delaware jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

In this year's #NDAA, we worked across party lines to: ➡️guarantee a 3% pay increase for troops ➡️create better access to health care services for our Vietnam veterans ➡️invest $60M in improving base house for military families — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As a @USNavy and Naval Reserves veteran, I’m proud this year’s #NDAA upholds our promise to support our nation’s veterans, service members, and their families, while, at the same time, ensuring our men and women in uniform have the tools to keep our country and citizens safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Under Tom Vilsack, climate science will no longer be censored by @USDA. He’s not only going to help our farmers adapt to the climate crisis. He’s going to help our farmers unleash their potential to lead on climate solutions like carbon sequestration and advanced biofuels. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Wishing all those celebrating tonight, a happy #Hanukkah! I know that many families cannot be together this year, and I recognize how difficult that is for everyone. But I hope that your homes are still filled with much-needed light this year and hope for better days to come. https://t.co/8rpw8kkWsh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As we work w/ the @StateDept, @CBP, and @USPS to redouble efforts to comply w/ the #STOPAct to block illicit drugs before they arrive in our communities, it’s also critical to work w/ law enforcement and the tech industry to figure out how we can take these drug dealers offline. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Given where the drugs are coming from and where our trading partners are in providing the package data we’re seeking, Congress and the public need to understand—starting now—how we’re going to avoid disruption and delays once the STOP Act goes fully into effect. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

There are serious concerns about mail delays, with potentially 130k mail pieces a day that could be held up or returned to their sender. This is unacceptable, especially at a time when Americans are being told to avoid inessential travel or trips to the stores. — PolitiTweet.org
