Even in the midst of unspeakable pain here and around the world, Donald Trump is continuing to inflict trauma on children in need of our care and protection. #DontLookAway. They need us to see and to fight. https://t.co/3sUMciPkNo — PolitiTweet.org

Ratcliffe is deeply unfit to be DNI. He has little experience, has trafficked in conspiracy theories, & is poisonously partisan in a job that requires objective professionalism to make sure executive branch & Congress have solid evidence to make decisions. https://t.co/UlxOi2vZcm — PolitiTweet.org

It’s late, but not too late. The American people need action now! https://t.co/YQ3tF4iOyI — PolitiTweet.org

Any changes in our ag & food production industries can have big ripple effects on food security & affordability—something a lot of communities are experiencing right now. That's why I'm determined to protect our pollinators, farms, and families now and in the future. #WorldBeeDay — PolitiTweet.org

More than 90,000 Americans have died. 1.5 million infected. Our economy is in shambles. But instead of addressing these crises, Senate R's are peddling in conspiracies and wasting time on a political hit job concocted to distract people from Trump’s corruption and mismanagement. — PolitiTweet.org

This is ignorant and offensive. Redlining was a racist conspiracy to limit African Americans' opportunities to buy homes. Those wounds still endure today. You can't compare that immoral practice... (1/2) https://t.co/8jWFoEgEol — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

A critical step in the fight against torture, internment, & other horrific abuses against Uyghur Muslims. We cannot stand by in the face of these atrocities. Proud I was able to push for strong sanctions provisions in this bill & hope it becomes law ASAP. https://t.co/Ndl52EHjVh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

This is tragic. I've been to the Rohingya refugee camps - hard to express how crowded they are & how quickly COVID-19 could spread. Critical that aid groups are given access ASAP & that refugees get the resources they need for hygiene & self-protection. https://t.co/KZb9r6WWOt — PolitiTweet.org

ANOTHER Inspector General out, this time after reportedly opening an investigation into Secretary Pompeo. Trump is methodically eliminating anyone who would bring wrongdoing to light. Chris is right — Senate Foreign Relations needs to investigate immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

House just passed strong bill charting a path to recovery. Great on housing, food, local gov & more. Isn’t perfect—terrible on fossil fuels—but lots of help where needed. Meanwhile... McConnell says nothing is urgent. Not urgent?? How many lost lives & lost jobs does it take? — PolitiTweet.org

During these dark days, some bright news for our planet and our future health. Electricity from wind, solar, and hydro will exceed that from coal this year! https://t.co/Lr18NszoXR — PolitiTweet.org

As the story on Capitol Hill goes, once the Hatfield Tree becomes the tallest tree on Capitol grounds, peace will prevail around the world. If that’s true, looks to me like peace is right around the corner. 🤞 https://t.co/8kHOpJzD9q — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Local governments & businesses NEED health-based guidance on reopening safely. @CDCgov has developed detailed guidance, but we can't see it because it's being politically edited and censored by the WH. THIS IS NOT OK. We need the full documents, now. https://t.co/qzVzYD9o07 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

SNAP offers food assistance to those in need. But it’s under attack by the Trump admin. We should be increasing SNAP benefits, not putting up obstacles for families to get food on the table during the largest financial crisis of our lifetime. #HandsOffSNAP https://t.co/hZn41T8SQO — PolitiTweet.org

If we reopen without a plan to contain this virus, thousands more American lives will be lost in a second wave. That’s why I’m joining @SenWarren @RepAndyLevin @SenTinaSmith to expand our health care workforce and create a federal contract tracing program. https://t.co/rpOMjKmxXi — PolitiTweet.org

China fears a second wave of COVID-19 may be starting again in Wuhan, so they are testing all 11 MILLION residents. In ten days! That’s more tests than Americans have had in 4 months because @realdonaldtrump has failed to implement a national testing strategy. — PolitiTweet.org
