The GOP’s refusal to acknowledge President-elect Biden’s victory undermines democracy. As states certify results & judges strike down frivolous challenges to the outcome, they push baseless conspiracy theories. If they value power over the Constitution, we have big problems. — PolitiTweet.org

Yemen is in dire need of humanitarian assistance. Cutting the country off from any aid would cause starvation and pain for millions of innocent people. We must lead with our values, and not walk away from the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2017, the GOP moved heaven & earth to provide trillions in tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans. Now working Americans are in crisis & worried about their job, their housing & keeping their utilities on. Mitch McConnell’s inaction has gone on for too long. We need relief now. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks 155 years of the 13th Amendment. It also marks 155 years of a loophole that was designed to continue slavery in America by weaponizing the criminal justice system against Black Americans.

On December 6th, 1960, President Eisenhower established the Arctic Wildlife Refuge. Now the Trump admin is looking to sell it off to fossil fuel companies… and lock in the deal before President Biden takes office. This is a theft of our public lands. We must #ProtectTheArctic. — PolitiTweet.org

Today is the anniversary of the 13th Amendment, which was ratified with the goal of ending slavery. But the evil of slavery still haunts our nation through a dark loophole in that amendment. We must #EndTheLoophole and finish the job of fully abolishing slavery in America. — PolitiTweet.org

This is what an economic crisis looks like. This is the direct result of a failure to control the virus. We’ve still not recovered millions of jobs that were lost in the earliest days of the pandemic and the pandemic is worse than ever. A robust stimulus bill is urgently needed. https://t.co/T063VpTq7U — PolitiTweet.org

The loophole in the 13th Amendment’s ban on slavery twisted our criminal justice system into a tool of racist control of Black Americans and other people of color. We must #EndTheLoophole because slavery of any kind is incompatible with justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Our justice system has long been weaponized against Black Americans & people of color. We see that legacy every day in police encounters, courtrooms & prisons throughout America.

First responders, teachers and other vital government employees are facing layoffs as state, tribal, and city budgets are hemorrhaging. Any COVID relief bill must include robust aid to keep them on the job. These workers have always had our backs. It’s time we have theirs. — PolitiTweet.org
