Governor Walz, Senator Smith and I met with local leaders and business leaders on the North and Southside of Minneapolis about uniting, healing and rebuilding our communities. https://t.co/eRAdvHSGC5 — PolitiTweet.org

We are facing a dual pandemic—coronavirus & racism. Our country is crying out for justice as this pandemic is disproportionately affecting people of color across the country. This week I spoke with @emarvelous about what we need to do to address the economic & social injustices. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, Breonna Taylor would have turned 27. Her life mattered and she should be alive today. But instead, her life was cut short & tragically taken by police officers in her home. Justice hasn’t been served and it must be. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Many servicemembers & veterans who were stationed near burn pits are vulnerable to coronavirus & face increased health risks due to toxic exposure. This week I introduced a bill with @SenatorRounds, @SenDuckworth, & @SenDanSullivan to ensure they receive the care they need. — PolitiTweet.org

Expanding vote by mail is a victory for the voters in Tennessee and for our democracy! Now, let’s make this and the option to vote early accessible to ALL Americans by passing my bill with Sen. @WydenForOregon. — PolitiTweet.org

Nothing better than following Ted Cruz at a hearing. The Senate should be taking on criminal justice reform & helping our country get through this pandemic Instead, Republicans called a hearing to smear Barack Obama. https://t.co/M9sJ9mlEXO — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Standing in the way of Sens. @KamalaHarris and @CoryBooker's anti-lynching bill is truly unbelievable. This is not a time to divide — it's a time to take action, pass this bill and fight racism. This is long overdue. https://t.co/KhUK7PDxri — PolitiTweet.org

General Jim Mattis defends protesters, says president tries to divide us: “We are witnessing the consequences of 3 years without mature leadership," “We can unite without him, drawing on the strengths inherent in our civil society.” https://t.co/MkN6W7FDXC — PolitiTweet.org

Andrea Circle Bear was jailed for a non-violent offense and died from coronavirus after giving birth on a ventilator. Paul Manafort was released from prison. At a Judiciary hearing yesterday, I demanded answers from the Administration on these two systems of justice. — PolitiTweet.org

During #Pride2020, we honor Marsha P. Johnson, Stormé DeLarverie, Sylvia Rivera & current leaders in MN, City Councilors Phillipe Cunningham (@CunninghamMPLS) & Andrea Jenkins (@annapoetic) who fought & are still fighting for equality. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the on-line story: Attorney General Keith Ellison to elevate charges against officer who knelt on George Floyd's neck; also charging other 3 involved | Star Tribune https://t.co/YF4JFbpocp — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison is increasing charges against Derek Chauvin to 2nd degree in George Floyd’s murder and also charging other 3 officers. This is another important step for justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Yesterday, the MN Department of Human Rights launched a civil rights investigation into the Minneapolis PD. Now, AG Barr must respond to my request with @TinaSmithMN & 26 Senators for full-scale federal patterns & practices investigation into the MPD. https://t.co/0quU5ByNiw — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

As I said on the senate floor today, when people righteously call for justice for George Floyd, lawmakers’ answers cannot be silence. They cannot be using the bible as a prop. We must answer the call for justice with action. The answer to systemic racism is systemic change. — PolitiTweet.org

Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar

Our country cannot divorce the impact of COVID-19 & the systemic injustices communities of color face every single day. Congress needs to step up and take action to reform our criminal justice system & invest in equal housing, health care & much more. https://t.co/5QqlGGU3H3 — PolitiTweet.org

Outrage from D.C. Episcopal bishop: “I was not given even a courtesy call that they would be clearing with tear gas so they could use one of our churches as a prop, holding a Bible, one that declares that God is love and when everything he has said & done is to enflame violence." — PolitiTweet.org

The outpouring of support in our community for George Floyd’s family, as well as each other, is with us every day. Yesterday John & I joined many in donating food.

George Floyd’s murder is etched in the minds of everyone across our country. One of the police officers has now been arrested and charged, but we also need a large scale federal investigation into the Minneapolis Police Department and system-wide reform. https://t.co/79kYK8Ycsn — PolitiTweet.org
