COVID-19 has wrought a whirlwind of economic pain – with women & especially women of color paying the heaviest price. On this #EqualPayDay the need has never been more clear: Congress must pass the #PaycheckFairness Act. Equal pay for equal work. https://t.co/lxLah5HYkO — PolitiTweet.org

3 years on & the message of @AMarch4OurLives still rings true: the time for action is now. The impassioned advocacy of this student & survivor led grassroots movement reminds us we can't accept gun violence as normal. It's time for Congress to step up with courage & conviction. — PolitiTweet.org

Relief is coming for our state’s struggling cultural institutions. Recently, I joined @SBA_Connecticut at the Bushnell to discuss the Shuttered Venue Operators Grant program, which will help these CT treasures. #SaveOurStages — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you Waterbury Chief of Police Spagnolo for your powerful testimony. Your thoughts & insights on the positive impact commonsense gun violence prevention measures can have are invaluable. https://t.co/Vge4aXwuQ3 — PolitiTweet.org

11 yrs since the Affordable Care Act was signed into law & the importance of quality, affordable health care has never been greater. I look forward to building on the ACA’s successes—like we did through the American Rescue Plan—& continuing to fight for expanded coverage & care. — PolitiTweet.org

Thoughts & prayers cannot save the 8 victims in Atlanta or the 10 last night, including a brave police officer. Congress must honor these victims with action—real action—like passing universal background checks, extreme risk protection orders, & more. #EndGunViolence https://t.co/IRJEGzzaSN — PolitiTweet.org

HAPPENING NOW: Too many lives have been lost to gun violence. It’s beyond time to honor victims & survivors with action. I’m proud to join my fellow @JudiciaryDems at today’s hearing to discuss comprehensive, commonsense ways we can #EndGunViolence. https://t.co/CFyJNSuVel — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden has chosen an antitrust all-star. Lina Khan has unique, insightful experience & a clear vision for the FTC. Her deep understanding of the threats of Big Tech’s monopolistic power will serve her well as a commissioner. https://t.co/0MkPBpIsLN — PolitiTweet.org

Another nightmare—so sickening, savage, stunning, but utterly unsurprising. Congress’ inaction on gun violence makes this horror so tragically predictable.  https://t.co/J7L3BfphPQ — PolitiTweet.org

Editing my opening statement for tomorrow’s hearing on gun violence only to look up & see the news reporting six killed by a gunman in Boulder. How many more lives must be lost before we enact the gun violence prevention our country so desperately needs? — PolitiTweet.org
