This is a campaign for America, all of America. Everyone matters, everyone counts, and everyone will be fought for. https://t.co/U6zMXX4n39 — PolitiTweet.org

Texas does not need yet another voter suppression effort. We must defeat SB9 and ensure every person is able to cast their vote, have their voice heard, and fully participate in our democracy. https://t.co/hbwPG6yuol — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Grateful for your leadership, your advocacy, and your commitment to standing with our fellow Americans over the NRA and the gun lobby who have purchased complicity and silence for far too long. — PolitiTweet.org

Our administration will not only fully protect Roe v. Wade, but we will do everything in our power to expand access to reproductive health care and stop these radical attacks on women across America. https://t.co/8e6ndbnhnZ — PolitiTweet.org

We're meeting Americans across the country who are having to work a second or third job just to make ends meet. It's clear that we have an economy that works too well for too few and not at all for too many. Let's finally achieve a minimum wage that is a living wage for everyone. https://t.co/OOiq7ZanQI — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Let's strengthen our unions, protect collective bargaining, and guarantee that one job is enough by paying every working American a true living wage. We stand with organized labor in Iowa and across the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

And as president, I will only nominate judges who respect, affirm, and defend Brown v. Board. Andrew Oldham doesn't get nominated. Neither does Wendy Vitter. If you don't believe in civil rights, in equity, in opportunity, you don't belong in a position of public trust. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

We will also decriminalize truancy. States like Texas have taken the first step by repealing laws that prosecute children for truancy, but the fines their parents face still loom large in a system that disproportionately targets black and brown students. I will take this on. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

It continues by finally achieving universal pre-k for every three and four-year-old, securing affordable childcare, signing into law paid family leave, and ensuring our country's minimum wage is a living wage so no parent has to work a second or third job to make ends meet. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

But I am committed to meeting this challenge with everything we've got. It starts by increasing public school funding for low-income and underserved communities, guaranteeing the equitable distribution of resources, and ensuring teachers reflect the diversity of this country. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

The work continues when we see shameful race-based disparities in HS graduation rates, in who can access higher education or skills training, and in who earns a degree. Happening as we fail to invest equitable resources in education and fail to make higher education affordable. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

The work continues when in that same kindergarten classroom, children of color are five times more likely to be disciplined, suspended, or expelled as a white child -- impacting their opportunity and potential. A school to prison pipeline in full effect at five years old. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

The work continues when we see an unconscionable achievement gap in our classrooms that is already in full force on the very first day of kindergarten -- where black children are already 10 months behind in math and 12 months behind in reading compared to their white classmates. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Brown v. Board was decided 65 years ago but our fight for equality is not over. The work to ensure we have equity and full opportunity in our classrooms, our schools, and our education system must continue. https://t.co/3Bcf2lr7kH — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Our thanks to the advocates, activists, and LGBTQ champions across the country who lead the way each day, kept the march for justice going year after year, and ultimately passed the Equality Act in the House today. Together, we will secure full civil rights for LGBTQ Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Our country has the world’s largest prison population. It is comprised disproportionately of people of color, built by targeting and prosecuting some communities for nonviolent drug offenses and not others. We need real, lasting, meaningful justice reform. The time to act is now. https://t.co/oyPNarjTSC — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Ultimately, this is about ensuring that every single one of us — regardless of race, ethnicity, or class — can live to our full potential with equal rights and equal dignity. We will build a future that is more just, more fair, and more prosperous for every single person. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Finally, we provide meaningful reentry reforms to help reduce recidivism. That starts by banning the box on job applications, returning drivers licenses, allowing access to loans that can unlock skills trainings, and ensuring their constitutional right to vote is protected. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

It also means taking on prosecutorial and police misconduct with a fully-staffed Department of Justice that can conduct investigations, provide de-escalation trainings across police agencies, and institute community-based review boards to ensure accountability and transparency. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Fifth, we ensure that all people are given an equal opportunity to have their rights respected by our legal system. This means reopening the federal Office of Access to Justice, launched to provide greater resources for indigent litigants in civil, criminal, and tribal courts. — PolitiTweet.org
