The numbers refute President Trump’s claim that there’s a crisis. Unauthorized border crossings have been at their lowest levels in years. Border agencies reported more than 1.6 million apprehensions in 2000, but 303,916 in 2017. https://t.co/0vxsCSoib8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

The most clear statement that there is no emergency came from President Trump himself, who after declaring the emergency, said this in a Rose Garden speech: “I didn't need to do this, but I'd rather do it much faster." https://t.co/d6Onru7JIm — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump’s national emergency declaration – which he attempts to justify using falsehoods about immigration and the Southern border – presents a serious threat to the separation of powers and the rule of law. — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to be an original cosponsor of the #EqualityAct. No American should be discriminated against for who they are or whom they love. This is a bipartisan bill in both the House and Senate. Let’s get it done! — PolitiTweet.org

My staff recently organized a tour of @LAFamilyHousing for local city councils and the state legislature. Impressively, the facility offers permanent supportive AND temporary housing services for the homeless. It’s exactly the approach we need to tackle this crisis. https://t.co/CZp5pzNJDF — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time for Saudi Arabia to reconsider how it wants to participate on the world stage. The United States simply can’t be complicit in its stark human rights violations. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

The Saudi-led coalition has deliberately targeted schools, hospitals and power plants and blockaded Yemen’s Red Sea ports, creating a humanitarian disaster. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

The Senate just voted to end U.S. support for Saudi Arabia’s disastrous war in Yemen. The only way to end this conflict is through diplomacy, not American military assistance. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

Federal employees got back pay for President Trump’s shutdown, but unfortunately federal contractors, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck, did not. That’s not right. We’re calling for their back pay to be included in an upcoming disaster relief package. https://t.co/xXN3nGZOSb — PolitiTweet.org

NOW: The Senate is voting on confirmation of Neomi Rao's nomination to the D.C. Circuit. She has concerning & controversial writings, led Trump administration efforts on deregulation & has refused to recuse herself in cases involving the very regulations she worked to dismantle. — PolitiTweet.org

Rao tried to distance herself from her writings and said she “lacked the perspective of how [her articles] might be perceived by others,” but her record shows her views may persist today. In fact, Rao approved repealing protections for survivors of campus sexual violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

Rao has also taken a number of extremely controversial positions. For instance, Rao wrote that if a woman “drinks to the point where she can no longer choose, well, getting to that point was part of her choice” should she become a victim of date rape. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

Additionally, the Clean Power Plan regulation has also been working. Experts say it will prevent up to 1,400 premature deaths annually by 2030 by decreasing particulate matters from emissions linked to heart and lung disease. However, Rao led efforts to repeal it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

Rao led efforts to weaken fuel economy standards, which I authored. These regulations were effective and successful. In addition, the country was on track to achieve a fuel economy standard of 54 mpg by 2025. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

Greg Katsas, another Trump nominee, made this pledge, as any nominee should. Recusal is particularly relevant in Rao’s case due to her record of directly working to dismantle regulations that ensure the air we breathe is safe, address global warming and protect consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

Today, the Senate will vote on cloture for Neomi Rao’s nomination to the D.C. Circuit. Rao led Trump administration efforts to abolish regulations protecting consumers and the environment, but she refused to commit to recusing herself in cases involving these regulations. https://t.co/pIlXht09eJ — PolitiTweet.org

Protecting individual privacy is critical and we must do all we can to give people control over their data.I commend the California Consumer Privacy Act for protecting most California residents. I will not support any federal privacy bill that weakens the California standard. https://t.co/Ecb6F5WCzg — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve been on the Senate Judiciary Committee a long time. This disregard for blue slips is a serious departure from the past, regardless of which party held the White House. It’s just not right, and I urge my colleagues to join me in voting against this nomination. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dianne Feinstein @SenFeinstein

The White House didn’t even offer to arrange a meeting with Paul Matey and Senator Booker until 10 months after he was nominated. Upon learning of Matey’s background, Senator Booker raised serious and substantial concerns about his fitness for the bench. — PolitiTweet.org
