I first met John when I worked for Ted Kennedy. He always fought for fundamental fairness. He will always be a giant in the movement. My thoughts and prayers are with my labor brothers and sisters. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you for all the well wishes and kind words. It’s been an honor to serve as DNC chair these past four years. The journey to the weekend was long, but it was well worth it. There’s more work to be done, but our party is in great hands with @harrisonjaime. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

But the work isn’t over — congratulations to my friend, @harrisonjaime on his election as the new chair of our party. I know you’ll do an incredible job, and I can’t wait to see how you build on the progress we’ve made and push our party forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

Today marks my last day as chair of the @DNC. It’s been an honor to lead our party these past four years, and I’m proud of all the progress we’ve made as a party. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

We have waited four years for this moment — decency and integrity are restored to the White House. Thank you to @JoeBiden, @KamalaHarris, and all the voters and organizers who fought to bring this victory to fruition. Our battle to #BuildBackBetter begins today. — PolitiTweet.org

Dr. King preached, marched, and sat in jail in order to bring America closer in line with her ideals. While the journey is far from over, Dr. King and the titans of the civil rights movement have cleared the path. Together we must keep the faith and always push forward. — PolitiTweet.org

My condolences to the family of Senator Mike Miller, a towering political figure in Maryland. Mike cared so deeply about Maryland. His fingerprints are on so many critical accomplishments. He battled his final chapter with strength and courage. May he rest in peace. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

This incoming group of @DNC leaders is smart and dedicated. They reflect the diversity of our party and our country, and I can't wait to see everything they will achieve alongside @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

Excited for my friend @harrisonjaime. I know he's going to do an incredible job building on the progress we've made and strengthening our party. @TheDemocrats will be in excellent hands. https://t.co/utleOLxayv — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

Facts matter. Thank you, @RepBonnie. From the coronavirus to the results of the election, it’s past time these facts are respected, especially by those in positions of power. https://t.co/9F2zJD5Vqf — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

Today, in a bipartisan vote, the House took action to hold him accountable. No one is above the law – not even the president. We must work to heal our nation’s wounds, restore the rule of law, and build America back better. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

This is a solemn moment. Last week, our democracy was attacked. The violent insurrection at the Capitol was a brazen attempt to subvert the rule of law and overturn a free and fair election, and it was incited by none other than the president of the United States himself. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

Masks aren’t a political statement — it’s a means of protecting yourself and others. I am keeping @RepJayapal in my thoughts and I hope she gets better soon. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

@RepSchneider Wishing you a speedy recovery. The disregard for people’s health and safety shown by some members is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

While fearing for her life, @RepBonnie was forced to shelter in place with her Republican colleagues who placed her life further at risk. I’m disgusted by their utter disregard for the wellbeing of others, and I am praying for her speedy recovery. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

America needs a secretary of labor who will fight tirelessly to empower American workers and the labor movement. A union member and champion of workers’ rights, @Marty_Walsh is the right person for the job. Congratulations, Mayor Walsh! — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

I also want to congratulate the incredible team that will be joining Judge Garland. I've had the privilege of working with Lisa Monaco, @vanitaguptaCR, and @KristenClarkeJD. They're the best of the best and I know they will protect civil rights and put the J back in DOJ. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

I had the honor of working on Merrick Garland’s nomination to the Court of Appeals when I was a staff member in Ted Kennedy’s office. He is a person of integrity and honor — qualities that our Justice Department and country desperately need now. Congratulations, Judge Garland. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

Yesterday’s violence was reprehensible, we need a full accounting for what happened at the Capitol. But those actions did not thwart our democracy, and Congress was able to certify the election of @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris — and in 13 days they will be sworn into office. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

As the late Congressman Lewis said, “Democracy is not a state. It is an act, and each generation must do its part to help build what we called the Beloved Community, a nation and world society at peace with itself.” Our work continues on behalf of the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @JoeBiden: Let me be very clear: the scenes of chaos at the Capitol do not represent who we are. What we are seeing is a small number of… — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

What happened in Georgia last night is the direct result of the hard work, sweat, and tears of every organizer, volunteer, and voter who showed up and spoke out. And it’s a strong reminder of what happens when we invest in our communities and invest in organizing — we win. — PolitiTweet.org

“We have barely been able to scratch the surface here, but you have a sense of our son. Tommy Raskin had a perfect heart, a perfect soul, a riotously outrageous and relentless sense of humor, and a dazzling radiant mind." https://t.co/tKfH76fSjj — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

Congratulations to @SpeakerPelosi on her reelection to Speaker of the House. She is without question the most impactful Speaker in the history of the United States. As we face a historic economic and public health crisis, there is no better leader to fight #ForThePeople than her. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy New Year! We powered through all the roadblocks and challenges that 2020 threw our way and we won. Now it’s time to put an end to division and embark on a new year of healing and prosperity. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

They are a wonderful family, and Tommy was a remarkable person. We mourn Tommy’s passing and will always remember his intellectual curiosity and commitment to justice. To the Raskin family: We will always be there for you. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Perez @TomPerez

My heartfelt condolences go out to Congressman @jamie_raskin and his wife, Sarah Bloom Raskin on the passing of their son Tommy. I’ve known the Raskins for years; Jamie is my congressmember and friend, and Sarah is a former colleague of mine. — PolitiTweet.org
