KY usually has 3,700 polling locations. Tuesday, there will be 200—with only ONE in the largest county where most of the Black population of KY lives. This is voter suppression—it’s insidious. Voting should be safe & easy. Let’s make that a reality. https://t.co/7MNCHBvLcx — PolitiTweet.org

This week we lost former Mpls Park Bd member Vivian Mason. She & Jack were regulars on my dad’s bike trips. She was a strong advocate for parks, trails &Concordia Language Camp. Here she is w/my husband John &former UN Sec-Gen Kofi Annan helping Books For Africa. We’ll miss her! https://t.co/jIaDUla8Qx — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, Sr. Minister of the Minneapolis Church of Christ, Dr. Russell Pointer, invited Sen. Bobby Joe Champion, @MNSteveSimon, MN faith leaders & me to learn about how the church is serving those in need. Thank you for uniting to help rebuild the community right now. https://t.co/NAJCGfbEJg — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Father’s Day to my dad, husband & all dads out there! We wished dad Happy Father’s Day through a closed glass window at the assisted living & even w/COVID at 92 he is still singing. Praying for strength & that all those years of biking & mountain climbing get him through♥️ https://t.co/QaxXaYNzHA — PolitiTweet.org

The outcome of this election won’t be determined by those who dangerously crowd into an arena in the middle of a pandemic to watch a demogogue rant. The outcome will be determined by the millions of Americans who cast their ballots to vote him out in November. — PolitiTweet.org

Again on a Friday night. We noticed. And so did he and he’s not resigning. https://t.co/REwiFe3N8B — PolitiTweet.org

So now the President is basically saying if people vote, he won't win. Let’s make that reason number one to vote. https://t.co/NGdvtg6VKZ — PolitiTweet.org

Minnesota Attorney General @keithellison is pursuing justice for George Floyd and his family. And I know Keith will bring his vast experience and an unending commitment to the case. https://t.co/pG0LxWChsB — PolitiTweet.org

Across the country, child care providers were forced to close their doors due to the pandemic. This week, Sen. @SenCapito & I introduced a bill to allow parents to use unspent funds in child care assistance plans next year & will not be penalized during this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy birthday to our daughter Abigail. She is the light of our lives, an accomplished person and was certainly a force out there on the campaign trail...as you can see from this Iowa photo, she cornered the doggie vote, at least at this house. https://t.co/uMNScr2DUM — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Thanks to Dr. Russell Pointer for welcoming Sen. Bobby Joe Champion, @MNSteveSimon, MN faith leaders & I to his church today to discuss how we must protect the right to vote. With only 137 days left to prepare, we must pass my bill that will expand early voting & vote by mail. https://t.co/7Arj6KSHG2 — PolitiTweet.org

Today is #Juneteenth—a day honoring the freedom of enslaved people. But freedom isn’t freedom without the right to vote and voter suppression disproportionately affects Black Americans. We must end discrimination at the ballot box & ensure all Americans can vote. https://t.co/WV7Slvb5wR — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Systemic racism exists at every level of our justice system—we must right these wrongs. This isn’t a time for half measures. It's a time for real change & action to hold police accountable and make our justice system more transparent. Let's pass the Justice in Policing Act now. — PolitiTweet.org

My husband has given his plasma twice. For anyone who has recovered from COVID giving plasma is a really good thing to do: Blood plasma from people who recovered is a safe civid-19 treatment, study says https://t.co/AgpvHBVlo6 — PolitiTweet.org

Monument (definition): a statue, building, or other structure erected to commemorate a famous or notable person or event. What exactly is being commemorated with Confederate statues at the Capitol? Take them down. — PolitiTweet.org

Pence is taking a COVID-19 victory lap as the U.S. hits a tragic new milestone: 2 million confirmed cases & 117,000 deaths. Our country is facing a public health crisis. Listen to health care experts & stop steering Americans in the wrong direction. https://t.co/tBO4A5VDd6 — PolitiTweet.org

The Supreme Court ruling is about Edwin Torres and so many DREAMers who love this country like he does. — PolitiTweet.org

Billions are being spent on online political ads, and our laws haven’t caught up. It’s past time for the FEC to take action to update regulations, so Americans know who is behind the political ads they see online. Let’s get it done. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

SCOTUS’ ruling is a huge victory for America & DREAMers across the country. The Trump administration must now reopen applications for citizenship. And we must pass comprehensive immigration reform. We cannot allow their fate to be decided on political whims. #HereToStay — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Sen. @TinaSmithMN & I, along with 26 other Sens., called on the DOJ to launch a full-scale pattern & practice investigation into the Minneapolis PD. They claim they need more evidence. So I asked yesterday on the Senate floor: is the video of George Floyd’s murder not enough? — PolitiTweet.org

While many Minnesotans wish we could still attend the State Fair this year—we all know it’s for the best to keep each other safe & healthy. But we can still support the vendors & get our favorite fair food. Find out if your favorites will be near you! https://t.co/HYldXUw6hl — PolitiTweet.org

More than a month ago, I urged the Administration to take action to help prisons as they face the coronavirus. The virus continues to spread throughout prison systems. It’s critical the Administration provides guidance & protects incarcerated people now. https://t.co/ExLGROtmtI — PolitiTweet.org

If Sen. McConnell refuses a vote on the bill that will actually make a difference—The Justice in Policing Act—he is on the wrong side of history. As George Floyd's family said: “we will demand and ultimately force lasting change by shining a light on this and winning justice.” — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Today Mayor @MelvinCarter3 gave a powerful statement at the Judiciary Committee hearing. He is absolutely right when saying, “Our children & grandchildren will call us to account for our actions...Simply measuring the problems & offering incentives will not suffice.” We must act. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Our country cannot wait for Senate Republicans to step up and take action. Our country cannot wait for Republicans to support the HEROES Act. Our country cannot wait for Republicans to support the Justice in Policing Act. We cannot sit in silence—we must get things done now. — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump continuously undermines the US Postal Service—first, calling it a joke, then threatening to withhold funds. Now, he puts one of his top donors in charge. We need to protect the US Postal Service. https://t.co/bpiE1TJgc7 — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

The senate judiciary hearing on policing has begun with @CoryBooker & @KamalaHarris speaking first about the Justice in Policing Act. I will be introducing St. Paul Mayor @melvincarter3 who will be testifying soon. Mitch McConnell should not stop this bill. America wants change. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Today I joined many of my colleagues in taking to the Senate floor to discuss the urgent need for action on justice reform. Platitudes from lawmakers are simply not enough. It is time to end systemic racism with systemic change, and we must deliver justice now. — PolitiTweet.org
