A loophole in the 13th Amendment allows slavery to continue in the U.S. as “punishment for crime,” the racist clause that led to mass incarceration. @RepNikema and I introduced the Abolition Amendment to finally #EndTheException—we must get this done.https://t.co/vIQRGIxcBI — PolitiTweet.org

There shouldn’t be articles like this because lawmakers shouldn’t be buying and selling stock—full stop! That’s why @SenSherrodBrown, @SenatorWarnock, and I introduced the Ban Conflicted Trading Act, and why I’m working to get this done in the Senate. https://t.co/Dw7jrEDLD1 — PolitiTweet.org

Cancer has impacted so many lives in the U.S. and around the world—we need to take bold action to improve treatment and outcomes. I am grateful to @POTUS and @OHSUKnight for their work to reduce cancer deaths by at least 50% over the next 25 years. We can and must do this. — PolitiTweet.org

Increased use of facial recognition technology is a slippery slope to a surveillance state, and has already resulted in reports of discriminatory outcomes. Read the full press release ⬇️ https://t.co/yZsQSj3xOW — PolitiTweet.org

Following the IRS's disturbing announcement that they will use facial recognition technology for users accessing their tax info online, @RoyBlunt and I sent a letter to the IRS demanding they immediately stop any programs that collect, store or use taxpayers’ biometric data. https://t.co/lUNYSpbuGN — PolitiTweet.org

We vote by mail in Oregon—it's easy and secure. We've done it this way for years, and I've heard from folks around the state who love to fill in their ballot at their kitchen table. So do I! Nationwide mail-in voting is about making participation in our elections more accessible. — PolitiTweet.org
