Every American deserves equal protections in the workplace, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. That's why I voted NO on Janet Dhillon for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, bc we need a champion for equality, not discrimination, on the @USEEOC. https://t.co/I30gksv5uy — PolitiTweet.org

Trying to block families fleeing persecution from getting legal representation runs counter to the very fabric of our justice system. I join @RAICESTEXAS in calling on @ICEgov to make sure immigrants at Karnes and other detention centers have access to legal counsel. — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t know a single teacher that would take a walkout lightly. But the situation in our public schools is dire, & it’s critical we address our overcrowded classrooms, lack of counselors & nurses, & outdated equipment. I stand in solidarity with Oregon’s teachers. #RedForEd https://t.co/gpA3BIgfeb — PolitiTweet.org

Curtailing a free press and undermining the public's access to government is a hallmark of authoritarianism & has no place in America. This purge of reporters is un-American and needs to be reversed ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org

The global community, with America at the forefront, must confront and strike down human rights abuses in Yemen and around the world. Grateful to orgs like @peacedirect @SFCG_ @mercycorps and others for their work to provide direct assistance and to pave a path to peace. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Yemen’s humanitarian catastrophe has already cost far too many civilian lives, and the impact of the war on children is devastating to their development and their future. If the conflict ends this year, @UNDP estimates it will have killed as many as 140,000 children under 5. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
In between meetings and votes, was able to sneak over to the Russell Senate Office Building to see the “Pathways to Peace in Yemen” art exhibit sponsored by @peacedirect @SFCG_ @mercycorps. I was particularly taken with this painting from a young Yemeni boy. https://t.co/3lSlheHNe1 — PolitiTweet.org

A big thank you to @atlanticLIVE @newseum and @kathleenkoch1 for hosting me at #AtlanticStateofCare for a discussion on the #ChooseMedicare Act. Our health care system is one of the most complex and frustrating in the developed world. We can do much better. https://t.co/K0K5QNinNm — PolitiTweet.org

My heart is with all of those affected by this violence: to the children terrorized in their own school, to the teachers fighting to protect their kids, to the parents who received the worst call of their lives. How many more times will we let another community go through this? — PolitiTweet.org

Let us use this anniversary to continue speaking up and speaking out against the crimes and indecency of this Administration. We must not—and we will not—let cruelty win. (5/5) #UntilEveryFamilyIsReunited #FamiliesBelongTogether — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
Donald Trump is systematically attempting to criminalize asylum seekers and punish them in any way he can. He stokes fear of murderers and rapists and hordes of criminals in order to serve his own political interests. It’s pure demagoguery. (4/) https://t.co/h25UI6vocM — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
But the abhorrent treatment of children and families at the border continues. Innocent children have been denied assistance and even died in our custody, and still this Administration moves forward with their zero-humanity policy. (3/) https://t.co/mtNjcxN2zY — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
In the year since, we’ve shined a light on what has been happening at the border, and the American people’s shock and outrage has forced @realdonaldtrump and his administration to back down from some of their cruelest and most repugnant ideas. (2/) https://t.co/zKxOE8IZYM — PolitiTweet.org

THREAD: One year ago today, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions delivered a speech that will go down as a truly dark & disgraceful moment in American history. He announced, proudly & w/out shame, a policy of ripping children from their parents’ arms. (1/) https://t.co/0dPrCNtQg5 https://t.co/BK8F5pZCTI — PolitiTweet.org

More & more, farmers' & ranchers' hard work doesn't pay off for them—it pays off for giant corporations that keep getting richer. This new @amprog report highlights how Big Ag mergers have choked off opportunity in rural America + what we can do about it. https://t.co/Nulc396Sak https://t.co/cVCcfunIF3 — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago today, this White house announced two new initiatives. One was a #BeBest anti-bullying campaign. Another traumatized children, ripping them away from their parents' arms -- and then lost them. A not so happy anniversary, @realdonaldtrump. — PolitiTweet.org

Human rights violations + persecution of a free press are hallmarks of authoritarian rule. It is critical that the Burmese government continue to enact major reforms in protection of its people, including holding perpetrators of the violence against the Rohingya accountable. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
At a time when partisanship too often tears the Senate apart, I’m grateful to the coalition of D + R Senators that joined me in calling for Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo’s release, along with the safe repatriation of Rohingya refugees: https://t.co/0zQwCEut7M https://t.co/gNAUkkMOkO — PolitiTweet.org
