57 years ago, civil rights leaders embarked on the #BloodySunday march from Selma to Montgomery. They were fighting for the right to vote and for racial and economic justice. They were met with racism and violence, attacked by state troopers on the Edmund Pettus Bridge. — PolitiTweet.org

The way to undercut the power of Russia is to end our dependence on oil and move toward clean energy. We have every reason to pivot quickly to clean energy and protect the planet, end our dependence on fossil fuels, and stop funneling money to tyrants like Putin. — PolitiTweet.org

Putin lied to his nation to send his soldiers to war saying he was fighting Nazism in Ukraine. Thousands on both sides will die. Families on both sides will be broken. All their blood—Russian and Ukrainian—is on Putin’s hands. https://t.co/suAiMCRnGo — PolitiTweet.org

It is just plain wrong that in some states LGBTQ+ Americans can be denied a loan, thrown out of a restaurant, or even evicted just for who they are. It’s past time to pass the #EqualityAct and make protections for LGBTQ+ Americans federal law. — PolitiTweet.org

Amazing moment: the fearless leader of Ukraine, Zelensky, directly addressed members of Congress on Zoom. In the face of Putin’s illegal and vicious assault, we must support Ukraine with extensive military and humanitarian aid and rally all free nations to do the same. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m with you, @SenMarkey! Louis DeJoy’s plan to tether us to gas-powered mail trucks for the next 30 years is a dangerous mistake. We need an all-electric fleet. DeJoy absolutely needs to be fired. — PolitiTweet.org

We don’t need any new gas-guzzling postal trucks. Remove DeJoy. Electrify the postal fleet. https://t.co/lIrBaUyDpb

The Biden administration requested funding for humanitarian and military aid abroad for Ukraine and to safeguard us from future variants of COVID-19 here at home. I've called for both and stand ready to help. To my Senate colleagues: let's do this quickly.https://t.co/yqaAh9ZoOP — PolitiTweet.org
