With the Delta variant continuing to surge, we must continue to work to keep folks across Oregon and around the country safe—and we can’t do that without getting more shots into arms and supporting health care heroes on the frontlines. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

The Biden administration announced that $25.5B from the Provider Relief Fund will be distributed to health care providers in Oregon and across the country—a needed investment in the folks who work tirelessly to keep us safe. — PolitiTweet.org

More information about the slavery loophole and the #AbolitionAmendment that @RepNikema and I introduced this summer ⬇️ https://t.co/HVwTn5xuZz — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Today is #ConstitutionDay, a reminder that our Constitution is a living document & must reflect our values. Today, let us deepen our resolve to defend the right to vote, to make our own health care choices, and to close the loophole that allows slavery as “punishment for crime.” — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

For #CitizenshipDay2021, I’m calling for a pathway to citizenship in Build Back Better for Dreamers who call this country home & know no other home. Building back better means ensuring equitable recovery by treating Dreamers with dignity. Their success is our success. #WeAreHome — PolitiTweet.org

Every American should have equal opportunity to have a say in the decisions that impact their life. I’m fighting to pass the #FreedomToVoteAct to protect access to the ballot box and keep power with the people. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

A Civilian Climate Corps will create jobs while protecting our health, planet, and future. It’s a win-win-win—and 77% of Americans agree. https://t.co/qBf9QxKfSH — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

I support the student leaders and environmental groups calling to #ChangeTheChamber. The @USChamber has a history of protecting polluters and making the climate crisis worse. Enough is enough. We need to put people ahead of polluters. https://t.co/WU1ZQYMlgA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

We must pass a budget bill that builds back better by creating opportunities for families to thrive, cutting taxes for the middle class, and bringing down outrageous health care costs. Let’s get it done! — PolitiTweet.org

Mental health is just as important as physical health, and this period of isolation has been difficult for many. Please know that you are not alone. If you or someone you know is in need of help, I encourage you to reach out. #NationalSuicidePreventionMonth — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

This builds on the letter I led with 33 Senate and House colleagues calling on the Biden administration to create a pathway to deliver this critical aid. https://t.co/8a5kWXTUD8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Afghanistan is on the brink of a humanitarian catastrophe. In yesterday's @SFRCdems hearing I called on the Biden administration to provide legal pathways for NGOs to be able to continue delivering life-saving aid to the Afghan people despite sanctions on the Taliban. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

The West is on fire. Hurricanes are destroying communities. People are dying in floods. We know climate chaos drives these events—it’s inexcusable to keep giving fossil fuel companies tax breaks. We need to build a clean energy ladder out of the hole we’re in and stop digging! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

I’m on the Senate floor right now talking about the importance of protecting every American’s access to the ballot box. #FreedomToVoteAct https://t.co/vIqR5sgVcR — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Politicians should work for the people—not for the powerful! That’s why I’m fighting to stop billionaires from buying elections with dark money and to give power back to the people. I’m calling on all my Senate colleagues to join me—and to pass this with or without a filibuster. — PolitiTweet.org
