.@AMarch4OurLives is proving that young people demanding generational change will be the difference-makers in the fight to end gun violence. This agenda puts its organizing might behind the recognition that ending gun violence demands a range of solutions. https://t.co/UpiOD5ybEw — PolitiTweet.org

The horrifying Capitol bomb threat yesterday shows the continuing cancer of violent extremism—the same danger we saw during the January 6th insurrection. Domestic terrorism is a metastasizing national security threat. — PolitiTweet.org

Chlorpyrifos are a dangerous threat to farmworkers, children, & public health. Banning these pesticides from our crops is the right choice & a move that is long overdue. Just last week Rep @NydiaVelazquez & I called on the EPA to take this necessary action.https://t.co/uBjJj7NHAy — PolitiTweet.org

The CPSC was 100% right to place a mandatory recall on these powerful magnets. Kids have been injured—& in some cases killed—by the devastating damage done to their organs. I'm committed to pushing safety standards forward & will soon reintroduce my Magnet Injury Prevention Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Today @SenMarkey & I wrote to FTC Chair Lina Khan to express our serious concerns about Tesla’s marketing tactics. Their overstated claims give drivers a false sense of security & overblown confidence in their car’s capabilities—putting motorists & others on the road at risk. https://t.co/6Mv1fKREq3 — PolitiTweet.org

The kind of quality attention that Torrington Child Care provides should be available to every child in the nation.

Capitol Child Development Center is a great example of the quality educational facilities that every community should have access to.
