The death of our democracy begins with deliberate attacks on truth. The erasure of norms and elimination of checks and balances. We can’t allow our democracy to falter. We must shore up our institutions against those who would destroy them. #ProtectingOurDemocracyAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Behind-the-scenes workers are the heart of the entertainment industry.   Yet their work often goes unrecognized – and should be fairly compensated.   Living wages and humane working conditions must be the standard.   We must have dignity and respect for all. https://t.co/5eWtHwwg7i — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats will make sure we don’t default on our debt. GOP leaders in Congress just don’t care. They will torpedo our economy if they think it will help them. It won’t. It will just harm the American people. The GOP must never be allowed to govern. Because they can’t. — PolitiTweet.org

YouTube’s curbing of anti-vaccine content is a strong first step. But this doesn't mark the end of our fight against deadly misinformation. These policies must be enforced. And we must keep pushing for other companies to follow suit. What do you say, @Amazon and @Facebook? — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s not overcomplicate this: Republicans passed a $2 trillion tax cut for billionaires and corporations. And now they’re refusing to pay for it. It’s really that simple. — PolitiTweet.org

Crack & cocaine are chemically identical. The only difference? How we punish their use. 80% of those in federal prison on drug charges are Black or Hispanic. This disparity is the stark reality of the racial biases plaguing our justice system. It's past time to root them out. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans across the nation are working tirelessly to rob women of their right to choose.   These bans on abortion are draconian – and just plain wrong.   We cannot let them stand.   That's why I just voted YES on the Women’s Health Protection Act. — PolitiTweet.org

The #ProtectingOurDemocracy Act isn’t about one man, one party, or even one moment in time. It’s about ensuring that our democracy endures — no matter who’s in the White House. And we should all be able to get behind that. https://t.co/yFbFZ9auxT — PolitiTweet.org

For four years, our democracy was tested by a man with no moral compass. But Trump’s most dangerous act was leaving a roadmap for a future executive to abuse the power of the presidency. Congress must respond — and we are — with the #ProtectingOurDemocracy Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Try not to punch down, but Jim Jordan’s obsession with me borders on unhealthy. Want evidence? How about providing internal polling to Kremlin intelligence while they ran a social media campaign for Trump? Or is that business as usual for the GOP? https://t.co/vua2e1mLsu — PolitiTweet.org

There is no higher priority than protecting our people. None. As we examine the cause of the illness known as Havana Syndrome, we must ensure those impacted get the care they deserve.   My HAVANA Act will do just that. And it's on its way to President Biden's desk for signature. — PolitiTweet.org

Fortunately, the former president no longer holds that office. But the weaknesses he exploited remain. And we cannot wait for the next demagogue or wannabe authoritarian to come along before we take decisive action. We must act. Now. Before it's too late. 3/6 — PolitiTweet.org

Trump was not the architect of the systemic failures that weakened our country and tore at our national fabric.  He simply exposed and exploited vulnerabilities that have lingered for decades. And proved just how ruinous these cracks in our democratic foundation can be. 2/6 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s no secret Donald Trump held little regard for our country, our Constitution, or our democracy. He only cared about himself. He trampled on our norms and institutions, violating laws and breaking long-standing precedent with shocking ease. 🧵 Here’s how we fix it:    1/6 https://t.co/8Ve46JCTba — PolitiTweet.org
