Very pleased that Schumer and Manchin have reached a deal to combat inflation, climate change and our deficits. This agreement will lower drug costs, and make a major investment in saving the planet. There is still a lot of hard work ahead of us. But this is exciting news. — PolitiTweet.org

Even as the war in Ukraine continues, China maintains a close relationship with Russia. And may seek to help its ally evade the full weight of the world's sanctions. I just introduced a bill to deter China’s support for Putin's war. America will not turn a blind eye. — PolitiTweet.org

As the body count piles up, assault weapons makers rake in record profits. With no liability when they act negligently and don’t track the harm their weapons do. They don’t care. Congress can’t accept that. We must repeal their liability shield. And ban these weapons of war. — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump is pledging to forcibly move homeless people to tent camps on the outskirts of towns. This idea coming from a man who lives in a luxury, gold-plated resort is just too much. Has a real “let them eat cake” feel to it. — PolitiTweet.org

AG Garland made a key distinction tonight. His comments previously focused on those who attacked the Capitol. He now acknowledges a broader investigation into the plot to stop the peaceful transfer of power. Our committee has shown Donald Trump was at the center of that plot. https://t.co/2Gmobogvs9 — PolitiTweet.org

Whales are intelligent, complex creatures who deserve to live free - not within the walls of a concrete tank. That's why I introduced the #SWIMSAct with @RepHuffman, @RepDelBene, and @SenFeinstein. To ban future capture and breeding of whales – and end this practice for good. — PolitiTweet.org

Attorney General Garland has committed to following the facts and evidence wherever they lead. They’ve led to Donald J. Trump. https://t.co/SpQYupCjCJ — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Bannon thought his proximity to the former president made him above the law. He was wrong. For our democracy to function, the law must apply to everyone — equally. And today justice was served. — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump’s incitement of the mob and refusal to stop the violence will be remembered as the worst dereliction of duty by a president of the United States in modern history. — PolitiTweet.org

When the Court overturned Roe, it devastated reproductive freedom in America. But that ruling may just be the beginning. Today, House Democrats passed a bill to protect the right to contraceptives. Because if the Court won't protect your rights, we will. — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing President Biden a speedy recovery from COVID-19. Glad to hear his case is mild - an important reminder about why being vaccinated and boosted can help keep everyone safe. Feel better soon, @POTUS! — PolitiTweet.org

In 2020, guns were the leading cause of death for America’s kids. And yet the gun industry has blanket immunity over the role its negligence plays in this carnage. My bill to hold them accountable passed committee last night. Next step is the House floor. Let's get this done. — PolitiTweet.org

Far too often in history, the health of LGBTQ+ people hasn't been taken seriously by the U.S. government. Today, a new challenge is emerging. We can't afford to overlook it. I'm calling for a stronger federal response to monkeypox – we must learn from the past, not repeat it. https://t.co/jzjYiwuuZb — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

The NRA isn’t fooling anyone. The only thing I’ve set my sights on is preventing their weapons of war from slaughtering kids. But the NRA has its sights set on protecting gun industry profits. And their own. They care more about making a buck than our children’s lives. https://t.co/5YGVjIjAcj — PolitiTweet.org

Today, House Dems will pass legislation to:   - Fund clean energy - Invest in rural economies - Create thousands of good jobs - Expand safe, affordable housing - Support veterans and military families And Republicans will spend their day trying to stop us. — PolitiTweet.org

157 Republicans just voted AGAINST codifying marriage equality for LGBTQ+ and interracial couples.   In the year 2022.   Republicans’ backward and extreme agenda cannot be our future. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

It's hard to believe that in 2022 we must act to protect marriage equality for LGBTQ+ couples and interracial couples. Yet this reactionary Court has made such action necessary. That's why I cosponsored the Respect for Marriage Act. America must go forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

I’ve been part of several congressional investigations that took place at the same time as the Justice Department. It is extremely unusual for Congress, let alone a local DA’s office, to be so far out ahead of the DOJ, given its much greater resources. And it's troubling. https://t.co/OgoiauMt0v — PolitiTweet.org

We have a narrow window to act on climate change before it’s too late. And that window is closing rapidly. History will not be kind to those who stand in the way of action. If there is anyone left to write it. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

Today, the House voted to codify Roe v. Wade.   We won’t sit by as Republican extremists force their reactionary agenda on the American people.   I speak to my Senate colleagues now:   The power to end this nightmare is squarely in your hands.   Use it. Now. — PolitiTweet.org

If we ever needed a visual reminder of the continuing grip oil-rich autocrats have on U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, we got it today. One fist bump is worth a thousand words. — PolitiTweet.org

A pregnant 10-year-old child forced to cross state lines for medical care after she was raped. And her doctor now facing prosecution. That’s not the unintended consequence of the Supreme Court’s decision. That’s the Republican agenda. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

My amendment prevents any president from unlawfully using the military for domestic law enforcement. It passed on a unanimous voice vote last year. When you were in Congress… Last time I checked, the Constitution hadn’t changed. But you certainly have. — PolitiTweet.org

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

It’s time we held gun makers and dealers accountable when they act negligently and people get killed. California wants to end the immunity enjoyed by the gun industry. But we need federal action too. I’ve got just the bill to get it done. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll admit, I may not be the best judge of what is or isn’t cool. But we can all agree this is pretty extraordinary. The clearest photos of our universe - ever. Thousands of new galaxies coming into view for the first time. Incredible. https://t.co/rum2OMTy7n — PolitiTweet.org

What we learned today: On December 18, plans to seize voting machines were rejected by Trump’s own WH counsel. He summoned a mob to the Capitol instead. He knew they were angry. And he knew they were dangerous. It’s not that he didn’t care. It was part of the plan. — PolitiTweet.org
