Congress must pass a substantial COVID relief bill that helps those who have borne the brunt of the pandemic's economic impacts: Health care workers. Essential employees. Small businesses. Black & Brown communities. The unemployed. No sweetheart deals—help where it’s needed most. — PolitiTweet.org

Are public hangings next? The real debate should be on abolishing the death penalty. It is not a successful deterrent, and we know from DNA evidence that innocent individuals are repeatedly convicted. That’s injustice, not justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks 50 years of the Environmental Protection Agency. For most of its history, the EPA has reduced harmful pollution & ensured Americans have clean water and air. After four years of sabotage from Trump, the EPA will be back in full force and ready to take on climate soon! — PolitiTweet.org

The 13th Amendment abolished slavery—but not entirely. There was a loophole in that ban, which has weaponized our justice system against Black Americans ever since. For justice to thrive, it’s time to #EndTheLoophole. That’s what this amendment does. https://t.co/e1Iv5w1AyX — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
America was founded on principles of equality & justice, and horrific realities of slavery & white supremacy. We must take an overdue step towards those principles by ending the loophole in our ban on slavery. No slavery, no exceptions. That’s what my #AbolitionAmendment will do. — PolitiTweet.org

A huge thank you to the Senators & House members who joined the letter that I and @RepJayapal @RepAOC & @SenBlumenthal crafted to stop Trump’s outrageous effort to deport these victims. We’re going to keep fighting for justice & accountability for those harmed while held by ICE. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump has attacked our census since the earliest days of his admin. This is an attempt to dilute the power of communities of color. Republicans have given up trying to win majority support fair & square and instead keep trying to corrupt our democratic institutions to hold power. — PolitiTweet.org

We needed a utility shut off moratorium in March, and the situation is even more dire now. When the Senate returns to work, we should pass my utility shutoff moratorium to ensure that no one has to choose between keeping the lights or heat on and putting food on the table. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
I look forward to working with Biden’s econ team to hold Wall Street accountable, crack down on predatory lending & ensure that working families can thrive. During an economic crisis for small businesses & record profits for huge corporations, anything else won’t meet the moment. — PolitiTweet.org

With cases increasing, new restrictions being implemented & the CARES Act expiring, we are facing a very dark winter. Senate GOP needs to stop leaving the American people out in the cold. Everyone is depending on us. We need to deliver for them. — PolitiTweet.org

#SmallBusinessSaturday may look a lot different this year, but whether it’s online orders or #maskup to visit a shop in person, let’s support our small businesses. They’re the lifeblood of our local economies, and they’ve struggled to survive this economic implosion. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
On January 20, we will have a president who will defend—not attack—our health care, but electing Joe Biden didn’t end these attacks. They’ve been coming since the ACA was passed. Our response must be clear: We’ll fight like hell to expand health care to all who need it. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
On #NativeAmericanHeritageDay, let’s honor tribes’ rich history, traditions & contributions.
