Donald Trump is a clear danger to our country and our democracy. Mitch McConnell must bring the articles of impeachment to the Senate floor as soon as possible for a final verdict. There cannot be unity without accountability. — PolitiTweet.org

In one week, Democrats will retake the Senate majority and the first thing on my agenda will be extending the $600/week benefit so workers kept home by this crisis can pay rent and buy groceries. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Add to the list of Trump-induced disfunction in government: it is now a badge of honor for a judge to be overturned by the Supreme Court. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

These judges can’t help themselves from making the conservative fever dream a reality: putting a politician in every exam room between a woman and her doctor. This is repugnant. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Spoke last night with @PeteButtigieg about his plans to create jobs, rebuild America’s infrastructure, and tackle the climate crisis. He will bring fresh ideas to the incoming administration and I look forward to working with him to get them across the finish line. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Selfishness has real consequences. My thoughts are with @RepJayapal and every other member of Congress who has received a positive test result after being forced to quarantine with individuals who chose their denial of facts and science over the health of their colleagues. — PolitiTweet.org

The schedule for my #2021townhalls the rest of this week in Lane, Coos, Curry and Washington Counties is here: https://t.co/X5w7yjOdrn — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Great first town hall of 2021 today with Oregonians in Gilliam, Grant, Sherman & Wheeler counties. I was home in Portland for this on-line #2021townhall & look forward to when we can safely resume in-person town halls. https://t.co/AFekbgABxO — PolitiTweet.org

Law enforcement agencies need assistance identifying those who participated in last week's violent assault on our nation's Capitol. If you're able, please help: — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Trumpism will endure long after Trump leaves office. The surest way to expel it is through election reform. Democrats have the opportunity to implement real changes to fight voter suppression and ensure every American can fulfill their constitutional duty. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Looking forward to tomorrow’s first on-line town hall of 2021. Obviously lots to talk about and I’m eager to hear from Gilliam, Grant, Sherman and Wheeler counties. Here’s info about how to connect to this #2021townhall: https://t.co/X5w7yjOdrn — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Help for families and jobless workers shouldn’t be tied to the outcome of political games, it should be tied directly to economic recovery. Under my plan, Mitch McConnell won't decide whether you can feed your family. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

There must be consequences for senators who would foment a violent mob for personal gain. I call on Senators Hawley and Cruz to resign and accept the responsibility which they so clearly bear. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

The behavior of President Trump and Senators Hawley and Cruz culminating in the assault on the seat of our democracy shocks that conscience. Any Senator exhorting such an assault violates their sworn oath and is unworthy of holding federal office. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Every member of the Senate takes a sacred oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. Upholding that oath is a matter of conscience. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

A lot has happened this week but we cannot lose sight of the crisis millions of Americans continue to face. This week’s victory in Georgia means families and workers will finally get the help they need to survive this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Huge congrats to my friend @kaysejama – a long-time and powerful voice for community organizing and social justice. Eager to continue working with him in his new role as a state senator:  https://t.co/JMyaWZhE9d — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

As I said last night Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to our democracy. His Cabinet must use the 25th amendment to act. And if Mike Pence and Trump’s “see-no-evil” Cabinet don’t have the stomach to do their duty, Congress should re-convene to impeach this dangerous man. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

As I return to work today, I’m more grateful than ever for all the U.S Capitol staff who work so hard every day to keep this place running. The threats each of you faced yesterday from domestic terrorists were horrific. That must never happen again. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

I thank the Capitol Police for their courage protecting all elected officials from criminals bent on destroying democracy. And I very much look forward to resuming the urgent work for our country, as soon as possible. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

As a steadfast defender of the First Amendment, I will always support peaceful protest even if I disagree with the views that are expressed. This is far from peaceful protest. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

All Americans must be able to elect House and Senate members safe in the knowledge that their views will be represented in civil debate here in Congress without mob rule ever squelching that discussion. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Today's riots by insurrectionists in the nation's Capitol caps off four years of Donald Trump fanning the flames of fanaticism. Every Republican lawmaker who supported his efforts to overturn a legitimate election shares responsibility for today's violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

My staff and I are safe and sheltering in place in a secure location. We will continue following the guidance of U.S Capitol Police and recommend others in the area do the same. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

There is much to do to right the wrongs of the past four years and level the playing field for working families nationwide. With @ReverendWarnock and @ossoff’s historic victory, both are now possible. Democracy is worth the effort. Now let’s get to work. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Spoke this morning with Energy Secretary nominee Jennifer Granholm. She is the right choice to get the Energy Department back on track to reaffirm our nation’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions and getting the best deal for American families. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Had a great talk this morning with Katherine Tai about how to ensure that U.S. workers are at the center of trade policy in the Biden-Harris administration. Future-US Trade Rep. Tai has the right experience and the right values to get results for American families. https://t.co/ABKZkhcNHc — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Big congratulations to my friend Shemia Fagan, who was sworn in as @OregonSOS today from the steps of the elementary school she attended in Dufur. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

When Senate Republicans refused to hold Donald Trump accountable for attempting this same stunt last year, I said I feared it would lead to an escalating abuse of power. Unfortunately I keep being proved right, and Senate Republicans are responsible for it. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Thank you, Enes, for everything you do for our community in #RipCity and for speaking out with such courage and eloquence for human rights in Turkey. — PolitiTweet.org
