Survivors & students are forging a fierce political movement—building a better, safer America with brave, broad proposals to stop gun violence. I’m proud to stand with them against this scourge. https://t.co/XHoHb6tQT0 — PolitiTweet.org

Don’t be fooled: this drastic policy change isn’t about “keeping families together” it’s about keeping kids in cages. https://t.co/lVziuqbY0F — PolitiTweet.org

Say it ain’t so, Mr. President. Americans are behind commonsense gun violence reform like background checks—they’ll be behind you if you seize the moment of historic opportunity to make our country safer. Fulfill the hope that finally the gun lobby’s grip is breaking. — PolitiTweet.org

PTC is a national mandate that with the proper will & wherewithal can be achieved. We must do more & do it more effectively so our railroads meet the 2020 deadline. This tech can & will save lives. — PolitiTweet.org

50 yrs ago today people were killed in a deadly train collision in Darien that could have been prevented by PTC. It is disgraceful that railroads have been unable achieve full implementation of this tech. https://t.co/nmU3kZaF9t — PolitiTweet.org

With 35 child hot car deaths, 2019 is likely to surpass last year’s tragic record. We have the tech to alert drivers to a forgotten child in the backseat. It is now up to Congress to mandate these alarm systems & help save lives by passing my HOT CARS Act. https://t.co/7hUAGn1sBm — PolitiTweet.org

Differences in parts & installation can pinch pocketbooks & imperil safety. Consumers should not be coerced or directed to car repair shops that have sweetheart deals with the insurer.
