Bowling Green residents showed tonight they are ready for change. Thank you so much to the Warren Co. Democratic Women's Club and Little Fox Bakery. Together, we will bring dignity back to Washington. https://t.co/AD9RNF5F1a — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to Chris Page of Shake Rag Barbershop in Bowling Green for having me today. We had a fantastic conversation about the direction of our country. https://t.co/EI6G4jARBD — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you @terrymills24 for organizing the community meeting in the beautiful new Marion County Library. I enjoyed learning about the town’s history—my kids would have loved library cave! Followed this up with visiting downtown Lebanon to start the week. https://t.co/dqliQFHSUC — PolitiTweet.org

Really cool to take my son to see the #7 team in the country play hoops. Great game today @uoflwbb ! https://t.co/ZT0mjGYIYF — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed kicking off a canvass for @BaileyKYSenate today. As a teacher, he’s committed his life to serving the 38th district and I know he’ll represent the community well in Frankfort as a state senator. Vote in the special election on Tuesday, Jan. 14th! https://t.co/LynGXIxf1w — PolitiTweet.org

Law enforcement officials put their lives on the line every day to keep others safe. We are thinking of the Leslie County Deputy who was shot today in the line of duty. — PolitiTweet.org

2 US soldiers killed by another IED in Kandahar. Lets not forget we remain at war in Afghanistan. https://t.co/Umr9Baljxs — PolitiTweet.org

In 2019, big pharma executives gave more money to Sen. McConnell than anyone else. No wonder he fights against bipartisan legislation to lower drug prices. #SenatorForSale https://t.co/45BYjk5SwQ — PolitiTweet.org

During Sen. McConnell’s career, Kentucky has lost almost 10,000 family farms. We need to make sure Farm Bill programs like subsidies, credit programs and crop insurance policies, work for small, family farms, not just large operations. https://t.co/XBgQPpzJnw — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. McConnell filed to run for his 7th term. He is the ultimate insider and epitome of dysfunction in Washington. If you want more of the same, he's your guy. If you want real change in Washington, donate here ⬇️⬇️⬇️ https://t.co/QUVIgVjVrB — PolitiTweet.org

We must stop #humantrafficking in all our communities by recognizing the signs, reporting suspected cases, and ensuring a victim-centered approach to survivors. Call 888-373-7888/Text BeFree (233733). #NationalHumanTraffickingAwarenessMonth https://t.co/kyhdMqpQyC — PolitiTweet.org

Ray and Diane wrote me about their daughter, who works in a hospital diabetes education unit. She sees the result of overpriced insulin on patients daily. I’ve heard too many of these stories. In the Senate, unlike Mitch, I’ll actually tackle the problem of rising drug prices. — PolitiTweet.org

Just awful. This is called the fog of war. 2nd and 3rd order effects are often unknown and uncontrollable ... and this time obviously tragic. — PolitiTweet.org

I met Gabby when I was a Marine Congressional fellow on the Hill in 2011. Rep. Giffords impressed me... sharp, smart, tenacious, a leader. She was shot a couple of weeks after I met her. She continues to be a strong voice for responsible solutions to gun violence in America. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

(2/2) Congress must also clarify that the existing AUMF does not apply to Iran. The American people and our military servicemembers deserve leaders who will take their Article I responsibilities seriously. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

(1/2) The events of the past few days underscore the need for Congress to step up, debate, and formulate a longer term strategy on Iran for our national interest and defense. Congress should hold PUBLIC hearings, demand intel briefings (not just to the "Gang of Eight"). — PolitiTweet.org

Erik and I continue to watch the new tonight. Hoping that all personnel at Al Asad and the other bases in Iraq are safe after the attacks. I fear this is an escalation that did not need to happen. — PolitiTweet.org

After serving in combat, the responsibility of Congress to vote to reauthorize the use of military force in war is personal to me, but Mitch doesn’t have the guts to do this. I won't back away from my Constitutional duty in the Senate. Help me get there:https://t.co/SCqRnM4mYn — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

For over a decade, Congress has punted its War Powers responsibility. The Senate has been too cowardly to execute its Article I responsibilities. You want war with Iran, the Senate should have the guts to vote on it. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

It isn't partisan to ask what is the end goal here. Indeed, after 18 years of war in the Middle East, the American people (and those of us who fought in them) are owed a strategy when the CinC escalates into yet another costly war. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

We have made great strides in the past century (127 women currently serving in Congress!) and must continue to push so our political system is accessible to all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

1965 (Voting Rights Act): Congress lifts many of the discriminatory barriers that prevented Black Americans from voting, but even today, we still must fight against barriers that block many from voting. — PolitiTweet.org

1952 (McCarran-Walter Act): Asian-Americans get the right to become citizens and vote. — PolitiTweet.org

1924 (Indian Citizenship Act): Native Americans are granted full citizenship, but many are still denied the right to vote. — PolitiTweet.org

100 years ago today, Kentucky became the 23rd state to ratify the 19th Amendment, which affirmed women’s right to vote, but many minority groups had to wait much longer. — PolitiTweet.org

Iran has now completely pulled out of the 2015 JCPOA which means there will be even fewer limits on its production toward weapons-grade uranium. https://t.co/hK3Pm0zKTM — PolitiTweet.org
