Folks vote by mail in Oregon and in red states like Utah, because it works! This shouldn’t be partisan: expanding our vote by mail system is a key way to help every American have a voice in our elections, no matter who they vote for. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

I’m hearing from folks who are rightfully frustrated that they’re still experiencing mail delivery delays and other mishaps. Louis DeJoy is part of the problem—it’s way past time to send him packing. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

I had the chance to meet with some of @WordisBondPDX’s young leaders last year, and was impressed by their commitment to making this world a better and more equitable place. They are destined for great things!  https://t.co/sXCtNI43qy — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

.@WordisBondPDX does incredible work to foster leadership and create opportunities for Oregonians to learn more about Black history in our state—including their In My Shoes Tour, guided by young Black men living in the Portland metro area. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

In Oregon, we vote by mail—we have for decades. It’s quick and secure. Expanding this system nationwide is just one way we can make sure everyone—no matter where they live or what they believe—has a voice in our elections. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

I joined @SenWhitehouse and @RepHankJohnson on the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, and Transparency (SCERT) Act, a bill to hold the Supreme Court to a code of ethics, disclose lobbying and dark money interests before it, and bring needed transparency to the Supreme Court. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

The American people are losing faith in the Supreme Court, with good reason: the Court makes life-altering decisions on access to reproductive care, voting rights, climate action, and more—but unlike other federal judges, they have no restrictions on their conflicts of interest. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Shell just reported their highest profits in their 115-year history—all while charging record prices at the gas pump. I am pushing a Windfall Profits Tax on those record profits—Big Oil’s profiteering will not go unchecked. We need to get money back in the pockets of consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

This. This is why I wrote a bill to ban hedge funds from owning homes. Houses in our communities should be homes for families—not a profit center for Wall Street.https://t.co/OSkEKFtxEk — PolitiTweet.org

We need to do more to address our plastic pollution crisis—the massive amount of single-use plastic we’re producing and the harm it does to our communities and environment. That’s why I joined @SenBooker and @RepHuffman in calling on the @EPA to take action. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

We need to make child care available and affordable for everyone in our country. It’s not a partisan issue—it’s a human issue. I’m joining forces with @SenAmyKlobuchar and @SenDanSullivan on a bill to train child care providers and improve child care facilities. — PolitiTweet.org

Americans foot the bill for medical research and development, but we have the highest drug prices in the world. The public deserves to know who is getting our money and how they're using it. That's why @RepLloydDoggett, @SenatorBraun, and I introduced the TRACK Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

We need a Windfall Profits Tax on the record profits Big Oil is raking in by gouging consumers at the pump, and we need to keep working toward a renewable energy future. That’s what I’m focused on. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

The headline says it all. Big Oil will always put their profits first: ahead of our planet, ahead of our health, ahead of promises they’ve made to the public. https://t.co/o5pNnKkDuR — PolitiTweet.org

As Russia's authoritarian government deepens its relationship with the junta in Burma, we must continue to stand with those fighting for democracy in Burma and around the world. https://t.co/6YTLkGlkbi — PolitiTweet.org

I’m with @SenWarren. Forcing workers to pay the bill for lobbying against their own interests—suppressing higher wages and benefits like paid sick days—is disturbing and outrageous. — PolitiTweet.org
