It is shameful that the Senate has failed to act on a covid relief bill in the 7 months since the House did. People are suffering while the Senate slumbers—and it will only get worse as programs expire after Christmas. We need to increase SNAP benefits & pass a relief package NOW — PolitiTweet.org

The UN just issued its #EmissionsGap Report on emissions over the past decade. How are humans doing? Not well. Emissions went up an average of 1.4% per year, with a sharp increase in 2019 from wildfires. The cause of those wildfires? Climate chaos. A deadly spiral. — PolitiTweet.org

The American people’s health & financial security is held captive by a GOP Senate that is fighting tooth & nail to provide legal impunity for corporations that threaten the safety of their workers & customers. They are holding relief hostage to appease their corporate donors. — PolitiTweet.org

A clear sign that we need more relief: Unemployment claims are spiking. We can help by putting cash directly in the hands of Americans. Let’s ensure stimulus checks are included in the next relief bill. No hoops to jump through. $1200 for adults & $500 for children. — PolitiTweet.org
