There were 54 votes in favor of enacting the January 6 Commission, and 35 opposed, but because our rules are completely bananas that means that the 35 WON THE VOTE. The filibuster must go. — PolitiTweet.org

@BudgetBen “Stumbled” is funny but ok. But yeah, I like the idea of paying ongoing new obligations out of ongoing new revenues, (reversing tax cuts) and financing the long term stuff. It’s not like I discovered this. I learned this 20 years ago in the State House Finance Committee. — PolitiTweet.org

Brian Schatz @brianschatz

@MarcGoldwein I didn’t say that we should ignore cost. But trying to achieve zero budgetary impact in a 10 yr window makes no sense. When people say “it should be paid for” they are talking about paying for infrastructure as if it’s an operating cost, which is stupid. — PolitiTweet.org

@ChrisMurphyCT Thanks Murph! We haven’t tweeted together in a while we should get the band back together! — PolitiTweet.org

Brian Schatz @brianschatz

We should deficit finance infrastructure. Money is cheap, and the things being built last for 30 or 50 or 100 years, so it should be amortized over that period This “pay for” thing is nuts. You just shouldn’t pay cash for infrastructure in a low interest rate environment. — PolitiTweet.org

Climate risks are systemic financial risks. We need our regulators to incorporate climate into bank supervision. My bill directs the Fed to stress test for climate risks—it will help ensure the climate crisis doesn’t trigger a financial crisis. https://t.co/5jyFxxz4Up — PolitiTweet.org

I admit we politicians sometimes overuse the “right side of history” framing, but this vote really is about whether or not we are going to stand up, on a bipartisan basis, against those who tried overthrow democracy itself. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m happy that Gov Ige made the change in rules to allow kids to compete in the ocean again. Surfing and outrigger canoe paddling are so much more than sports - they are a part of our culture and a way of life. I look forward to seeing our kids out in the water. — PolitiTweet.org

The filibuster is the reason that bipartisanship on this issue will not prevail. — PolitiTweet.org

And, no, being critical of Bibi Netanyahu is not anti-semitism. Anti semitism is anti semitism. — PolitiTweet.org
