True freedom is the ability to participate fully in every aspect of American life, without fear. I authored the #EqualityAct so we can fully open the doors of opportunity for everyone in our country. 3/4 — PolitiTweet.org

Bold reform to restore and protect Americans’ right to vote and crackdown on corruption is a top priority for this Congress. The #ForThePeople Act will do both—and we have the momentum pass it. https://t.co/Yc5ZCLRXUo — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell has shown that he will continue to turn the Senate into a graveyard for legislation and grind Biden’s agenda to a halt as long as he is able. We must—at a minimum—reform the filibuster to take away McConnell’s ability to veto all progress. — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve seen an uptick in hate crimes against the Asian American community in recent months, and it must come to an end. It is incumbent on all of us to speak out against this and address the racism and bigotry that still prevails in our country. https://t.co/xKEjfZh1cR — PolitiTweet.org

I’m leading the battle to pass the For the People Act, which takes on the broader issues of gerrymandering, voter suppression, and dark money—all of which corrupt our elections to favor the powerful over the people. — PolitiTweet.org

The violent attack on the Capitol wasn’t a tragedy to Donald Trump—it was exactly what he wanted. That’s why he told rioters who had just murdered a police officer and erected gallows to hang his Vice President that he loved them. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

The facts speak for themselves: Donald Trump spent years cheerleading violence and stoking the fury of his supporters. He did nothing to stop the attack once it started and has shown absolutely no remorse for the death and destruction it caused. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org
