Thanks to the labor movement in American history, we have some pretty good things like: - Safety equipment standards - 8-hour work day - The weekend (my favorite) - Sick days - Unions - Minimum wage - 40-hour work week To name just a few... Happy #LaborDay! — PolitiTweet.org

Over 200 people have died in mass shootings in 2019. That’s more than ten times the number of Americans killed in combat overseas this year. When will Mitch McConnell (who claims to prioritize national defense) defend Americans’ lives instead of the gun lobby? — PolitiTweet.org

Natalia and I went through flight school together. Eleven years later, we deployed to Helmand Province, Afghanistan, at the same time. Today, I watched her be promoted to the rank of Commander (US Navy). Congratulations my friend! https://t.co/PWDnNVwj0c — PolitiTweet.org

First, Kentucky lost 30,000 mining jobs as Mitch McConnell watched from Washington. Then, Matt Bevin refused to enforce the law that would have protected coal miners' paychecks. Our miners and their families deserve better than Bevin and McConnell. — PolitiTweet.org

Mitch McConnell is bad for Kentucky and bad for our country. Let's defeat Mitch and defend democracy: https://t.co/c4b0WAp4ji — PolitiTweet.org

I'm so thankful for Kimberly from Campbell County—she's one of the grassroots donors fueling our campaign. I gave her a call to let her know how much I appreciate her generous contribution. Chip-in today, and you might be next: https://t.co/nVA5mwIdmI https://t.co/gDxv2Pr7Ke — PolitiTweet.org

Mitch McConnell is bad for coal miners. Just ask them. #KYSen https://t.co/NAYyOk1BYC — PolitiTweet.org

Before we can defeat Mitch McConnell in 2020, we need to beat Matt Bevin this November. Sign up to help 👇🏻 https://t.co/5lTj9tRZJX — PolitiTweet.org

Did you know that Whitesburg was named one of the 25 most stunning mountain towns in America by @readersdigest? It's really beautiful. https://t.co/NRLmB59jni — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

This is what I love about traveling around Kentucky—stopped by Heritage Kitchen in Whitesburg for lunch today and got to talk with folks about issues facing their families, and learn more about how we can support them. Thanks to all who came by—especially Mayor James Craft. https://t.co/sY2IAOUgcy — PolitiTweet.org

Just another day in Mitch McConnell's Washington. — PolitiTweet.org

This is wrong. #Blackjewel miners are struggling to put food on the table while waiting for the backpay they're owed, but the corporate bankers are coming out unscathed. #NoPayWeStay https://t.co/hAmDnBcFpt — PolitiTweet.org

This morning, for #WomensEqualityDay, I went to Breaking the Bronze Ceiling's event announcing a monument honoring the contributions of women. It was great to reflect on the long fight for equality and to speak with some of Kentucky's most accomplished women. https://t.co/C7ZZLtM5CG — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

Mitch McConnell took a million bucks from coal barons but he will barely meet with miners, even when they're sick and have traveled for hours on a bus to see him in Washington. We know where he stands—with the money. #SenatorForSale — PolitiTweet.org

I’m not worried about the bankers on Wall Street, but these reckless tariffs are hurting Kentucky’s family farms and working people. Nobody wins a trade war. https://t.co/aV0WYarsoX — PolitiTweet.org

This economy is leaving much of Kentucky behind. Every Kentuckian deserves to have access to a good-paying job, whether they live in Boone County, Harlan County, or anywhere else in the commonwealth. https://t.co/4Ng7auUYnv — PolitiTweet.org

Young adults have less and less trust in our institutions and our leaders. That’s part of why we need a new generation of leaders in our country—and we need them now. https://t.co/GeT01BMGLP — PolitiTweet.org

Mitch McConnell has all the time in the world to cut taxes for rich people and corporations. But with time running out to protect coal miners with black lung disease, he's doing nothing. #BlackLungKills #SenatorForSale — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

Our coal miners risked their lives to fuel our country—but Mitch McConnell would only give a group of them with black lung disease a scant minute when they rode 10 hours to visit him in Washington. My question for McConnell: Which side are you on? https://t.co/6dzOZHTKOV — PolitiTweet.org

With Ellie starting school, and George and Teddy heading back, I dug up a photo from when I was around my daughter's age. I bet you'll see the resemblance. #TBT https://t.co/9viZA4L42e — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

Mitch McConnell’s 34-year residence in Washington has been a masterclass in dismantling the institution of the Senate for partisan gain and destroying the trust that we once had in government. To defend democracy, we need to defeat Mitch. Join my team: https://t.co/BJnihsC4KH — PolitiTweet.org

Kentuckians shouldn’t have to worry about affording insulin—nor should they have to drive upwards of 300 miles to get it in Canada. How can we trust Mitch McConnell to fix this when he's taken $1.3 million from the pharmaceutical industry? #SenatorForSale — PolitiTweet.org

Amy McGrath @AmyMcGrathKY

The bill for Mitch McConnell's tax giveaway to the rich and corporations will soon come due. As the budget deficit soars, it's our children who'll have to pay for his reckless policies. https://t.co/X7AI55NJqO — PolitiTweet.org

I had such a warm welcome in Western Kentucky this week—thanks to Paducah, Henderson, Owensboro, Bowling Green, and Elizabethtown! Mitch McConnell broke Washington, but, together with folks all across Kentucky, we can fix it. https://t.co/lhoAI335JO — PolitiTweet.org
