Thinking about Rosa Parks today on the anniversary of her birth (2/4/1913). Throughout her life, Rosa Parks stood tall for freedom, equality & justice. Rosa Parks is an American hero & her sacrifice led to a better future for all. #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/vjp3iSLNsH — PolitiTweet.org

It’s impossible to comprehend the horrors of the #Holocaust – the scope of the inhumanity, evil, and #antisemitism. Yet, we must never forget & never be indifferent. This #HolocaustRemembranceDay we must all take a renewed stand against rising antisemitism in our communities. https://t.co/K7FgQkIG5X — PolitiTweet.org

Unfortunately, GOP-backed voter suppression is rampant in many states. While Senate Republicans blocked federal voting rights protections, the struggle for democracy continues. We will keep working to safeguard ballot access & ensure election integrity for ALL American voters. — PolitiTweet.org

Dr. King fought for our future - yours & mine. His vision for equal rights & a more just society changed history & the world. Today, we are called upon to do our part to prevent voter suppression. The U.S. Senate must act to protect voting rights & freedom for all! — PolitiTweet.org

We honor MLK’s legacy with reverence, action, education, & service. Let us match his courage, follow his example, & pass voting rights legislation now to protect the freedom to vote for all Americans. https://t.co/1SlRuMozad — PolitiTweet.org

This is a critical & much needed step toward safeguarding our elections from foreign malign influence. This office will help uncover, track & disrupt foreign interference against the U.S. & ensure a strong, coordinated response to better protect Americans. https://t.co/SYtCeR3x2O — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve got to build forward with an eye toward the future. Thanks to the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act I helped negotiate & pass, RI is getting an additional $47.1 million this year to upgrade bridges around the state & $235.5M for bridge improvements over the next 5 years. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jack Reed @SenJackReed

Senator Jack Reed @SenJackReed

I strongly back @POTUS’s decision to deploy military medical teams to RI & other states to help w/ hospital staffing shortages amidst spike in omicron cases. This infusion of military health pros will bolster @RIHospital's ability to deliver full spectrum of care to all in need. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jack Reed @SenJackReed

Dr. Maya Angelou was a civil rights leader, poet, professor, icon, & she continues to be an inspiration. Now, she's also the first Black woman to be featured on a U.S. quarter. I’m proud to have voted to help mint the American Women Quarters Program. https://t.co/tdozINDvag — PolitiTweet.org

The need for climate action is urgent. New study shows severe weather disasters cost the U.S. $750 billion over the past 5 years. It’s time to pass Biden’s comprehensive climate policy agenda to help create green jobs & mitigate climate change. https://t.co/JdRTAmTmKE — PolitiTweet.org

At 12 noon I will join Senate colleagues in observing a moment of silence to mark one year since the January 6 insurrection. Soon after I will deliver a floor speech about the attack, investigation, & ongoing efforts to protect & strengthen our democracy. Tune in live on @cspan. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jack Reed @SenJackReed

The Jan 6 assault on the US Capitol was an attack on democracy itself. Best way to defend U.S. against forces seeking to undermine our right to free, fair self-gov't is to transparently pursue the facts, ensure accountability, & uphold Constitutional principles that unite us all. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jack Reed @SenJackReed

I am deeply saddened by the loss of Harry Reid, a great friend & champion for working families everywhere. He was equal parts caring, compassionate, competitive, & tenacious. His steady, persistent, unselfish leadership will continue to guide us & his example will sustain us. — PolitiTweet.org
