We must match the resolve & resilience of Puerto Rico’s people by covering 100% of the cost of rebuilding—not just patching the damage, but rebuilding to the highest & best standards. Our fellow Americans deserve no less. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Pierluisi urged, & I agree, that long term reconstruction of the electric grid & other critical infrastructure must continue without delay. Water, food, & other necessities must be delivered right away, but long term resilience must be a priority. — PolitiTweet.org

I just got off the phone with Puerto Rico's Governor Pierluisi. Encouraged & energized by our conversation, I pledge my full support for an immediate sustained relief effort. He told me of peoples’ courage, strength, & grace in the face of suffering & loss—truly inspiring. — PolitiTweet.org

Dark money spending has exploded in American politics. If we want our democracy to actually work for the people, we need to pass the #DISCLOSE Act to end anonymous spending in elections & judicial nominations. It’s time to stop this corrupting influence in our politics. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to the Afghans & veterans standing #FireWatch outside the Capitol. You are bravely & boldly shining a light on the critical importance of passing the #AfghanAdjustmentAct—providing safe haven for at-risk Afghan allies fleeing Taliban persecution. https://t.co/V99TvV1Dln — PolitiTweet.org

The people of Puerto Rico are not alone. We will stand with you, & fight for full recovery & more after the devastation of Hurricane Fiona. To all Americans: our fellow Americans need & deserve swift sustained aid, far different & better than the Hurricane Maria debacle. — PolitiTweet.org

The real results of Putin’s sham referendums are already clear—these lands are Ukrainian. The recent offensive has put Putin on his heels. He is losing & his continued sponsorship of terror won’t break Ukrainians' heroic resistance. I stand with Ukraine. https://t.co/dXoxvulkD4 — PolitiTweet.org

To my fellow Americans in Puerto Rico—you are not alone. The time of throwing paper towels&counting it as action is over. Through a Major Disaster Declaration & strengthened oversight of FEMA, I’ll be fighting for vital investment to help the island resiliently rebuild&recover. https://t.co/NWZkWzOWwr — PolitiTweet.org

It’s pressing & important to provide law enforcement with the mental health support they need. In my discussion with local police chiefs we emphasized breaking down barriers to mental health access & making sure trained professionals aid police responding to crisis calls. https://t.co/h9pg6sCpfK — PolitiTweet.org

Our hearts are w/friends, family&fellow Americans in Puerto Rico as they again show courage&resilience confronting a weather catastrophe in Hurricane Fiona. Our aid to them must be quick&full—far more so than recent natural disasters that have hit the island. I’ll fight for it. — PolitiTweet.org

Long flight delays, unexpected cancelations, & other issues wreak havoc on airline travel. I’m working on legislation to help empower state AGs—like @AGWilliamTong—to use their legal tools to enforce critical airline consumer protections. https://t.co/Vho5ne83k6 — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll fight for basic protections—safeguards against unwarranted rent increases, maintenance failures, unfair evictions, & more. Residents deserve better from the corporate giants that buy properties in CT & nationwide. https://t.co/bWt1N5KdAI — PolitiTweet.org

CA is ushering in a new era of online safety for children & their families. It’s time to do the same on a national level. My Kids Online Safety Act is ready for a vote. Let’s not waste any time bringing it to the Senate floor. https://t.co/jsTuyUhbJr — PolitiTweet.org
