Senate Republicans aren’t treating this moment like the global health crisis it is. They’re not treating it like the historic economic downturn it is. Instead of a pathetic box-checking effort, they need to get serious about beating COVID & getting Americans the support they need https://t.co/M7IVAWqAXf — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s what @realdonaldtrump just doesn’t get: Using secret police tactics against peaceful Black Lives Matter protesters doesn’t make him a defender of law and order; it makes him a violent suppressor. https://t.co/xmO9DxFWpp — PolitiTweet.org

Millions of children, seniors, & people with disabilities face food insecurity because of COVID. We need to INCREASE SNAP, extend Pandemic EBT, & renew the $600/wk UI to help Americans put food on the table. Lobbyists can pay for their own damn martinis. https://t.co/yaGGCZ5ly5 — PolitiTweet.org

Leaders who attempt to postpone elections because they’re afraid to lose are authoritarian despots, plain and simple. We won’t accept it here, and we must not accept it for Hong Kong either. Cc: @realDonaldTrump — PolitiTweet.org

To our Muslim sisters and brothers around the world marking the end of the pilgrimage season this Eid al-Adha, #EidMubarak! May families and communities feel their bonds and spirit strengthened, even in these trying times. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Rent is due tomorrow & McConnell just let $600/week in UI expire for millions of Americans fighting to survive COVID's fallout. The House extended this months ago but Senate Rs are instead cutting families’ incomes when they can least afford it. Shameful. https://t.co/whTfpY7MoC — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Extrajudicial killings, torture, arbitrary arrest, violence against indigenous & LGBTQ communities, corruption, human rights abuses–this is what Honduras looks like under its current president, so I asked Sec. Pompeo why this Admin continues to cozy up to Juan Orlando Hernández. https://t.co/D9prG7t1B5 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

.@barackobama is right: To honor John Lewis, we must keep marching. Automatic voter reg. Equal representation for DC & PR. Return vote to former inmates. End gerrymandering. “And if all this takes eliminating the filibuster, another Jim Crow relic […] that’s what we should do.” https://t.co/8CnXfswKqM — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Good. The General’s record of offensive and inflammatory comments not only disqualifies him for the position Trump nominated him to, but for the position he currently holds. His views are wholly incompatible with the U.S. military’s values. https://t.co/Pzgi7ZygBQ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Presidents can’t postpone elections. Ignore him. Instead, tune in to Congressman John Lewis’s funeral today to be reminded of what has really made America great—compassion, resiliency, and the courage to never stop fighting for a just America. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Rep Gohmert made staff come in unnecessarily, berated them for wearing masks, & risked exposing them AGAIN once he knew he had COVID! This is exactly the kind of reckless behavior Senate Rs would enable w/ their employers liability shield. NO! We must protect workers & customers. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

We can’t in good conscience tell Americans to #StayHomeStaySafe & then pull the rug out from under families in crisis. The next COVID relief bill MUST have a utility moratorium. Honored to be in this fight with you, Congresswoman, & @RepRashida @SenWarren @SenKamalaHarris. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

The most impt thing helping families weather this crisis has been the $600/wk. What about this situation makes McConnell think NOW is the time to cut folks' incomes? Bc of the decisions Trump made, we're nowhere near out of the woods yet. We must extend UI https://t.co/BpW8AGcHaJ — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell’s COVID bill is a parade of horribles: Want a $400 tax subsidy for three martini lunches? You got it. Money for hungry American children? Too bad. Want to cut support for workers who’ve lost their jobs? Sure. A moratorium on utility cutoffs and evictions? No dice. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

GOP is proposing to cut more than $1600/month from people who've already lost their jobs, & make sure businesses won't be accountable if they cut corners & workers/customers get sick. I came to the Senate to HELP working people so not a fan of their plans. https://t.co/0qQCfV8v9U — PolitiTweet.org
