#COVID19 is surging, front line workers are still seeing shortages of critical testing and PPE, and hospitals are becoming overwhelmed. The economic fallout of this crisis has devastated communities nationwide – including those in our nation’s capital. And they need help. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The #CARESAct provided every state at least $1.25 billion in coronavirus relief funds. Washington, DC received less than half of that – despite it having more residents than states like Wyoming and Vermont. This is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

TUNE IN: In an unprecedented move, the #CARESAct neglected over 700,000 tax-paying residents of Washington, DC. @LeaderHoyer, @ChrisVanHollen and I are joining @EleanorNorton to take up the cause of our fellow citizens in DC to right this wrong. https://t.co/4HNDl6NxzU — PolitiTweet.org

My @EPWDems staff analyzed how states are – or aren't – protecting residents from utility shutoffs. While Americans are being encouraged to stay home and wash their hands frequently, millions now face the dangerous prospect of losing water, gas and electric services. Read more: — PolitiTweet.org

As a former governor myself, I believe that state and local leaders know what is needed to keep their communities safe. For federal agents to not only be ignoring governors and mayors, but also escalating tensions with protesters is unacceptable. https://t.co/sgDxJs51Hn — PolitiTweet.org

Prime Hook refuge serves as a sanctuary for millions of migratory birds. During the pandemic, it’s become a sort of sanctuary for people, too. The Great American Outdoors Act will ensure our nation’s public lands, like Prime Hook, remain places where we can reflect and recharge. https://t.co/NuwmwDmbpk — PolitiTweet.org

EPA’s environmental permitting proposal would silence the American people and have devastating consequences for communities of color and Indigenous communities. It’s legally flawed and would lead to more air pollution. I’m urging @EPA to withdraw it. https://t.co/16mQVsSRTV — PolitiTweet.org

We're working with @RandPaul and @SenGaryPeters to urge Congressional leadership to include our legislation to eliminate billions of taxpayer dollars in waste in the next relief package so we can put these funds to better use for the American people. https://t.co/3WxES0TfEp — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As we work on another much-needed #COVID19 relief package for the American people, we must remember that one of our most important responsibilities is to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars. My bill with @SenJohnKennedy will help ensure a mistake like this won't happen again. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

.@realDonaldTrump, who claims to revere the U.S. Constitution, is ignoring the fact that it clearly says "whole numbers of persons in each State" should be counted for our nation's census. Instead, he's pushing this partisan ploy to create a congressional map to his liking. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The law couldn’t be more clear: federal employees cannot use their office to endorse any product, service, or enterprise. Ivanka Trump, who serves as the President's senior advisor, is not exempt from that law. @ewarren and I want answers on her recent tweet. Read our letter 👇 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

John Lewis didn’t just tell us to never give up, to never give in, to always keep the faith or to do what is right even when it’s hard. He showed us how through his extraordinary life. May his legacy be a lesson for each and every one of us. https://t.co/hH2deB2SAz — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I stopped by the @DelawareDOL to thank Secretary Cade and the employees there for all their hard work throughout this pandemic to help get out of work Delawareans the benefits that they and their families need more than ever. https://t.co/iuLKfSylz5 — PolitiTweet.org

The climate crisis is not a matter of opinion. @SenWarren @SenWhitehouse @brianschatz and I are calling on Facebook to do the right thing to combat the spread of climate disinformation. Anything less would be wrong and irresponsible. https://t.co/TWbj2Gtff6 — PolitiTweet.org

Our job as elected officials is to ensure all teachers and students have the resources they need to both stay safe and succeed this school year. It’s yet another reason why we need to provide much-needed funding to our state and local governments in the next COVID relief package. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Proud to join @SenateDems in announcing the Economic Justice Act. To address the racial inequities and injustices that pervade our society, we need to make significant investments in the infrastructure and programs that serve communities of color. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ChrisVanHollen, 20 of our Senate colleagues and I are urging the Department of Interior to reconsider its senseless proposal that would remove federal protections that have saved the lives of countless birds. https://t.co/axmIQTzi1V https://t.co/59LFB9bfwD — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As a recovering governor and former chairman of @NatlGovsAssoc, I understand the importance of providing support for state and local government budgets that have been devastated by #COVID19. Here's a strong case by the former chair of @federalreserve on why we need to help now. — PolitiTweet.org

Under the Trump Administration's NEPA rollback, companies are allowed to write their own environmental impact statements. Like a self-graded take-home exam, but for polluting industries to determine the environmental consequences of their actions. — PolitiTweet.org

While our country combats a respiratory pandemic, EPA continues to pursue actions that will lead to more polluted air and worse public health. While lives are already at stake, EPA is ignoring the deadly implications of its proposals. https://t.co/kTBTEae6H8 — PolitiTweet.org

This is beyond alarming and @realDonaldTrump should explain this change immediately. Medical data that is critical to mitigating the spread of #COVID19 and saving lives simply cannot be politicized. — PolitiTweet.org
