I've tried over the last few days to find the words to describe how horrified I am at the treatment of these children in the government's care, but words fail me. The Trump administration is committing human rights abuses and Senate Republicans are letting it happen. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

I spoke with @washingtonpost about the threats to our upcoming 2020 elections. Thanks to Mitch McConnell’s refusal to pass election security legislation, election interference in 2020 by hostile foreign powers will make 2016 look like small potatoes. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

This is the reality of trying to get health care in Republican-controlled states that refuse to expand Medicaid. While Republicans are playing partisan games, Americans are being deprived of basic health care. https://t.co/hL5hgtj8q0 — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

The most terrifying thing about this is that the Trump administration isn't sorry they held kids in prison camps, they’re sorry they got caught. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Just weeks ago, @RandPaul and I introduced legislation to put an end to warrantless searches of digital devices at the border. It's time for Congress to restore protections for Americans' privacy. https://t.co/zdMy8z2Jdu — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Yet another disturbing account of how the Trump administration is turning the border into a rights-free zone for Americans who travel. Crossing America’s borders shouldn’t come at the expense of your digital privacy. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

If this is true, Gina Haspel is pushing our country toward war behind closed doors. During the Iraq war we learned that a CIA Director could skew the presentation of the intelligence to justify war. That cannot happen again. https://t.co/snBbajZUAP — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Today I was proud to stand with @ChrisVanHollen in introducing his legislation as part of our effort to close the long-term unemployment gap and help struggling American workers find good jobs. https://t.co/NlrD9xK5qd — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

My ELEVATE Act will close the gap between employers who need skilled workers and Americans looking for good-paying jobs. Progressives and conservatives agree: this approach will help Americans left behind in today's economy. Proud to have @ChrisVanHollen as a cosponsor. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

One-time bonuses were a PR stunt designed to hide the fact that corporations pocketed billions from Trump’s tax law. American workers have yet to see the $4,000 wage increase they were promised. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

In case it wasn’t clear before, this is exactly why Mitch McConnell blew up Senate rules and is rushing the confirmation of dozens of right-wing judges who want nothing more than to slash access to reproductive health care. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

I can only surmise that Trump's total lack of understanding of wildfires or forest management is what led him to slash @forestservice Jobs Corps training. After fighting with my colleagues to demand full funding for this program I'm happy to see the administration reverse course. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

But these days, Trump's Republican party seems to believe that lawyers and bureaucrats should tell private companies how to make clearly private business decisions. The drive by Republicans to eliminate the autonomy of large private firms is extremely disturbing. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

CDA 230 lets private companies take down inappropriate third-party posts without incurring liability. It's designed to protect companies from floods of lawsuits, the sort that kill innovation in its infancy. Republicans used to fight tooth and nail for these protections. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

On top of that, it looks to me like @HawleyMO's office hasn't even read the statute he's trying to change. Nothing in Section 230 shields companies for making illegal posts, or from violations of federal criminal law. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

.@HawleyMO's bill to require government oversight of online speech will turn the federal government into Speech Police, flagrantly violating the First Amendment. This bill would force every platform to become 4chan or 8chan rather than maintain some basic level of decency. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

John Bolton and Mike Pompeo have hardly ever found a cause they didn’t want to start a war over. No case has been made to justify the use of force against Iran. The Senate must pass @SenatorTomUdall's amendment to prevent an unauthorized military attack. https://t.co/AzSn13skgM — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Trump is so desperate for a political win that he’s rolling out the red carpet for China’s spymasters. Read my full remarks from today’s @SenateFinance hearing: https://t.co/YjOqvbs5Tv — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Trump says that Huawei is a national security threat, but he’s willing to let them in the door for a face-saving trade deal. https://t.co/GkGqcKEip0 — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Any trade agenda Trump might have gets knocked off course by hail storms of tweets sent while he’s watching the Fox morning shows. As a result of his mismanagement on trade, American families are faced with the prospect of everyday life becoming more expensive and less secure. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

President Trump has also signaled that he’ll betray our national security by letting Huawei off the hook if China helps him save face. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Trump claims that trade wars are good and easy to win, but the reality proves otherwise. Trump has failed to crack down on trade abuses by countries like China, and has wavered when it comes to implementing strong trade enforcement policies in his trade deals. https://t.co/7Fsy5ZYGzg — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

.@justinamash and @RepZoeLofgren have been longtime partners in the fight to protect Americans' privacy by supporting my bill with @RandPaul to fight warrantless surveillance of American citizens. The House must pass their amendment to preserve Americans' civil liberties. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

In case I haven’t said it enough, here's your daily reminder that our elections won’t be safe until we make hand-marked #PaperBallots the law of the land. CC: @senatemajldr — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Today’s #Pride parade in Portland stands in sharp contrast to the Trump administration's parade of discriminatory civil rights horrors. Take a stand during #PrideMonth by celebrating love, respect and dignity and show our resolve to achieve equality for LGBTQ+ Americans. https://t.co/pMkKDD2uD7 — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Between turning the EAC into a dysfunctional, partisan, conspiracy theorist-filled agency, and refusing to take up legislation in the Senate to protect our elections, Mitch McConnell remains one of the biggest threats to America’s democracy. Brian Newby must resign. Immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

This afternoon’s #2019townhall in Prineville was the #OregonWay at its best. Very much enjoyed hearing from Crook County about the community’s concerns over election security, teen suicide, health care, wildfires & the need for campaign finance reform. https://t.co/LKRTR4n0ee — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Big congrats to all the graduates of Central Oregon Community College & all the loved ones who supported them on this school & life path that required the 3 Rs to succeed — resolution, readiness & resiliency. Very honored to share your special day with all of you. @CoccNewsroom https://t.co/XLnfk7vawR — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Congrats to @OregonState on the launch of its Global Hemp Innovation Center. OSU has been blazing the trail in research and development of new and innovative ways to use hemp. This project will lead the way in unlocking the hemp industry's huge economic potential. — PolitiTweet.org
