A group of Republicans has decided their political ambitions and Trump’s conspiracy theories are more important than our democracy and the will of the American people. This anti-democratic assault should be met with an outright rejection from all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

The richest 1% of the world causes 2x more CO2 emissions than the poorest 50% combined. The affluent must do more! Stop investing in fossil fuels, create millions of jobs by expanding wind & solar energy, retrofit buildings, electrify transportation, and restore lands. — PolitiTweet.org

Provisions that would benefit working people the most are the ones that Republicans fought the hardest to keep out of the latest COVID deal. Shame. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s call pushing the GA Secretary of State to doctor the election outcome is an immoral attempt to manipulate the election and a potential criminal act. January 20 can’t come soon enough. — PolitiTweet.org

Serving the people of Oregon—particularly during this tumultuous time—is the honor of my lifetime. I am determined to do all I can to ensure our ‘We the People’ government is restored, and that it delivers what families need to thrive in chapters ahead. https://t.co/ePsOksBCl3 — PolitiTweet.org

This is a new low with Republicans trying to reverse certified results that have been scrutinized by the courts. This is the tactic of dictators, and should never see the light of day in our republic. — PolitiTweet.org

GOP opposition to state & local aid was no mistake: budget shortfalls will disproportionately hurt women & people of color, who often serve in the public sector roles likely to be cut—& who’ve already been among the hardest hit in 2020. I’ll keep fighting—there’s much more to do. — PolitiTweet.org

We can reduce carbon pollution by moving to zero-emission vehicles. My family has had some version of an electric vehicle for eight years now—Volt hybrid, Leaf, and Chevy Bolt. I’m working to make sure that a ZEV is within reach of every American. Going ZEV is big for the planet! — PolitiTweet.org

In 2017, I announced the 100 by 50 Act, the first legislation to end the sale of fossil fuel cars. Now 18 countries & California are moving forward with some version of this proposal. Momentum is building; a transition to electric transport is essential to tackling climate chaos. — PolitiTweet.org

We can’t go back to “normal” after this pandemic. Normal was record profits for Big Pharma; crushing student loan debt and a housing crisis; $7.25/hour federal minimum wage. We must instead come together to create a new normal that allows working families to thrive. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2020, the presidential candidate who won by 7 million votes got 306 Electoral College votes. In 2016, the presidential candidate who lost by 3 million votes got 306 Electoral College votes. This system is broken. We must abolish the Electoral College. — PolitiTweet.org
