I’m co-leading a @CECCgov hearing on corporate sponsorship for the 2022 Beijing Olympics tomorrow—tune in at 10 AM ET to learn more about how U.S.-based companies can leverage their influence to insist on concrete human rights improvements in China. https://t.co/gnrmJoTyqr — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Congratulations to Australia, host of the 2032 Olympics! The Olympics are meant to celebrate the human spirit and should be awarded to human rights champions—not gross violators of human rights like the Chinese government, which is hosting in 2022 while committing genocide. — PolitiTweet.org

31 years ago, we got a bipartisan, transformative civil rights victory with the passage of the ADA. Today, I’m thinking of the activists and allies who fought to pass this important bill and were critical in landmark win for justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Wildfire smoke chokes our communities and threatens our health and livelihoods. These bills are a step toward making sure Oregonians have the resources they need to protect themselves against and recover from dangerous smoke from wildfires. https://t.co/0BHgb1sFNA — PolitiTweet.org

Our Constitution starts “We the People,” not “We the Powerful.” I’m fighting to pass the protections in the For the People Act to keep power in the hands of the people. https://t.co/dDqHOAnVPL — PolitiTweet.org

Everyone in America should have access to a safe, stable home they can afford. The Affordable HOME Act works to make that ideal a reality. https://t.co/jqyyXIV29J — PolitiTweet.org

We need to get dark money OUT of our elections. Our elections should be determined by the will of the people, not influenced by the powerful and privileged. https://t.co/yRUTzIE88q — PolitiTweet.org

“One wildlife rehabilitation center in rural Oregon says it got ‘three months’ worth of birds’ in three days.” Another day, another reason to #ActOnClimate to protect our ecosystems, our people, and our future. https://t.co/WqVxzoD49U — PolitiTweet.org

As an Oregonian, I’ve voted by mail for years. It’s convenient and secure. I think everyone in this country should have the option to vote by mail if they choose. Voting should be simple and accessible to every American. — PolitiTweet.org

The Bootleg Fire and the other fires raging in the West right now are a painful reminder of the work that must be done in the Senate to provide our communities with the resources they need now and to tackle the climate chaos that fuels these fires. https://t.co/mxzJqEGbs9 — PolitiTweet.org

When it comes to plastics, instead of the three R’s—reduce, reuse, and recycle—the reality is closer to the three B’s: plastic is buried, burned, or borne out to sea. It’s time to change that. #BreakFreeFromPlastic https://t.co/ppKNORPC7A — PolitiTweet.org
