Tomorrow, Louis DeJoy, the U.S. Postmaster General and close ally of Donald Trump, will appear before @HSGAC for the first time. There’s no shortage of answers that I want and that the American people deserve. What are questions you want answered at tomorrow’s hearing? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This is unacceptable. Our Delaware delegation is not going to stop until we get answers from @USPS. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I visited @camprehoboth as they celebrate 30 years of promoting inclusion and community development. Even in the midst of the #COVID19 pandemic, they are dedicated to building a safer community with room for all. https://t.co/jDoJzxjEao — PolitiTweet.org

At the Georgetown Junior Police Academy, middle school students have had the opportunity to train physically and mentally for a career in law enforcement and public service. I was proud to meet with them today and share just a few of my rules for success. https://t.co/taHjPJKlMD — PolitiTweet.org

I stopped by the bandstand to meet Rehoboth Beach Mayor-elect Stan Mills this afternoon to discuss how the pandemic has affected our beach towns and what the federal government should be doing to make sure they have the resources they need. https://t.co/ZaN2L8AsEf — PolitiTweet.org

Working to form a “more perfect union” is a never-ending exercise. We can, and always should, strive to do better. As we celebrate 100 years of the #19thAmendment, let's reaffirm our commitment to fighting for true gender equality and protecting the sacred right to vote for all. — PolitiTweet.org

These more and more record-breaking temperatures and extreme weather events might sound like a broken record, but we can't afford to ignore them. If we do nothing to address carbon emissions, what we're experiencing now will pale in comparison to the devastation that lies ahead. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This summer, unprecedented heatwaves shattered records across some the coldest places on Earth. Just this week, Death Valley recorded the hottest temperature on Earth since 1913. https://t.co/xX96pIbgdH — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I’m glad that, after outcries from the American people, the Postmaster General is suspending these cuts. But we have to make sure he follows through. My team and I will be watching. And Congress must pass my bill with @SenGaryPeters to protect @USPS service through the election. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The fact that these slowdowns are happening during a pandemic and right before an election during which a record number of Americans plan to vote by mail - and all while the President bashes mail-in voting – is more than enough to raise eyebrows. https://t.co/9cpPXcAtXy — PolitiTweet.org

Today, @ChrisCoons, @RepLBR and I are standing with @DE_DOJ as she announces that the First State will be joining the fight to stop the Trump Administration's blatantly partisan attempts to undermine the Postal Service. https://t.co/EMlIaq8lNw — PolitiTweet.org

By supporting the development of the clean cars of the future, the voluntary agreements represent a real win for American jobs, the American auto industry and our planet. I strongly encourage the rest of the auto industry to follow their lead and join this sensible framework. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

While the Trump Administration created a void of leadership, vision and direction, the state of California and five automakers came together in these voluntary agreements that provide a path forward to support the clean cars of the future. I commend them for their leadership. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

.@USPS is, quite literally, a lifeline for millions of vulnerable Americans. I’m working with my colleagues to ensure @realDonaldTrump’s reckless interference and endangerment of the Postal Service comes to an immediate end. There is simply too much at stake. — PolitiTweet.org

This rollback is bad for our planet, bad for our lungs and will lead to more sickness and more deaths—all for the sake of boosting the bottom line for oil and gas companies. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I’m proud to have the support of @LungAssociation, @TobaccoFreeKids, @American_Heart, @AmerAcadPeds and @ACSCAN in the fight against tobacco use and reduced health care costs in the #COVID19 pandemic. Together, we're determined to push for a safer and healthier America. https://t.co/JNzjEI7eXh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Today, I introduced legislation to do just that: help Americans quit smoking and reduce health care costs. My bill will make it easier for millions of low-income Americans to improve their health and reduce the worst symptoms of #COVID19. https://t.co/k8ScEqpz8x — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Every day, public health experts are learning more about coronavirus - like that smoking is associated with a higher likelihood of #COVID19 progression. That's why it's clear: there is no better time to be doing all that we can to help smokers kick the habit for good. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

.@DHSGov, cannot be run with the same recklessness as one of @realDonaldTrump’s failed businesses. Not only does it compromise our national security, it puts even the most routine actions of the Department in legal jeopardy. Read my full statement here: https://t.co/msbK7lLXyP — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Our founders developed an intricate system of checks and balances so that no one branch of our government would be all-powerful. @realDonaldTrump's decision to blatantly ignore these checks undermines the critical mission and stability of @DHSgov. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Today, @USGAO confirmed exactly what I've been sounding the alarm on: Chad Wolf and Ken Cuccinelli are not eligible for the positions they hold because @realDonaldTrump circumvented critical, and legally required, steps for appointing top @DHSgov positions https://t.co/eSjjfRW1xe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

.@realDonaldTrump cannot use @USPS as a pawn in his partisan politics. That's why l’m working nonstop with my Democratic colleagues to protect this critical institution and the vital role it plays in millions of lives. #DontMessWithUSPS 📫 https://t.co/2pZUQLGenY — PolitiTweet.org

People travel from all over the world to visit First State National Historical Park & our two national wildlife refuges in Delaware—today, I’m proud to welcome @RobWallace_FWP.

Wind energy has the potential to create good-paying jobs, reduce our reliance on dirtier sources of power and provide more affordable electricity to consumers – all while helping to combat the worsening climate crisis. #WindBuildsTheFuture https://t.co/5xBKA9EdEK — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The planet is on fire, the American people are suffering and dying in the midst of a deadly respiratory pandemic, and @EPA is still pursuing actions that are bad for the climate, bad for our lungs and will lead to more sickness and more deaths. https://t.co/N2v9kc3qUt — PolitiTweet.org

.@realDonaldTrump is making it harder for seniors to get medicines. He’s making it harder for small businesses to ship products. He’s making it harder to send paychecks. He’s making it harder for rural areas to stay connected. All because he doesn’t want you to #VoteByMail — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

During difficult times, outlets like music, dance and drama have the power to bring us together even when we're physically apart. Thank you, @Kaisha and @GRAMMYAdvocacy for your work highlighting the importance of supporting creators and the arts when they need it most. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Does @realDonaldTrump mistakenly believe that only Democrats vote by mail? In the midst of a pandemic, he’s saying that he wants to make it harder for EVERY American — regardless of their political affiliation — to cast their vote. And EVERY American should be outraged. — PolitiTweet.org
