Today marks the 70th anniversary of the start of the Korean War. Such a day provides us a special opportunity to thank and pay homage to those in our lives who served in the war, and remember those who sacrificed their lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Insanity. Americans are dying at higher rates than the rest of the world because Trump never prioritized testing in a serious way. Now, he's pulling the rug out from communities that have done their part. We need more federal support for testing, not less! https://t.co/HV4lCNq9hx — PolitiTweet.org

As a Polish-American, I find President Trump’s efforts to boost Polish President Duda’s reelection appalling. U.S. Presidents should stand up to strongmen, not reward them with White House visits. I urge Trump to immediately cancel tomorrow’s WH meeting. https://t.co/OhSW36NLkn — PolitiTweet.org

#JUNETEENTH2020 serves as a day of reflection on the struggle Black Americans have faced & continue to face in the U.S. For that, I've cosponsored a bill to make Juneteenth a national holiday. I'm confident that together we can make America a more just and equal society for all. — PolitiTweet.org

#Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when news of Emancipation finally reached enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, 2.5 years after the Emancipation Proclamation finally freed them. For 155 years, Juneteenth has been celebrated as the official end of slavery in the U.S. https://t.co/ckCTEEm7ur — PolitiTweet.org

Reports of political purges @VOANews are outrageous and something we’d ordinarily expect from the Kremlin, not the White House. Congress must conduct rigorous oversight to ensure this critical institution remains free of political influence. https://t.co/PvGrFTFH7b — PolitiTweet.org

A monumental victory for our Dreamers, most of whom were brought to America as children & know no other home than the U.S. But, our fight is not over. It’s time for Congress to seal the deal & provide our Dreamers with the permanent security they deserve. https://t.co/kjR6PKAoE0 — PolitiTweet.org

This is a monumental victory for LGBTQ rights. In states across the U.S., you can still be fired for who you love. Not anymore. "Today, we must decide whether an employer can fire someone simply for being homosexual or transgender. The answer is clear." https://t.co/58MPxEgArB — PolitiTweet.org

I'm so thankful for Dr. Acton’s steady leadership and expertise during the pandemic. I'm glad she will stay on as a senior health advisor to Governor DeWine. Her service is deeply appreciated by Ohioans across our state. https://t.co/4X7i70ZNHN — PolitiTweet.org

We have five months to invest in our institutions and to turn the corner in this moment of chaos and empower our nation and our people. From COVID-19 to systemic voter suppression, our democracy has never seen a threat like this. All we ask for is a fair fight. — PolitiTweet.org

Recent court filings indicate that nine inmates have already died, and 446 inmates and seven staff have active coronavirus infections. The Bureau of Prisons must act immediately to protect the lives and safety of staff and inmates at the site. — PolitiTweet.org

Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur

The Bureau failed to take steps to protect inmates and staff at this facility until it was compelled to do so by a court order. In spite of this court order, the Bureau of Prisons has been slow to institute the necessary reforms to protect individuals at Elkton. — PolitiTweet.org

Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur

.@SenSherrodBrown and I are calling for answers from the Federal Bureau of Prisons as coronavirus cases at the Elkton correctional facility continue to rise. Immediate action must be taken to protect those who are incarcerated and staff. https://t.co/Hop2P2nvUC — PolitiTweet.org

Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur

I will continue fighting for necessary changes, including putting an end to protections that makes it near impossible to hold offenders accountable. This bill represents only the next step in a fight for justice that has lasted generations and will continue for years to come. — PolitiTweet.org

Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur

I wholeheartedly support this legislation and the need for deep structural change to our nation’s policing and criminal justice system. https://t.co/qHfafy2ieA — PolitiTweet.org

Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur

The Justice in Policing Act represents a critical step forward, one that responds to the call to action set by millions of Americans demanding a transformation of our law enforcement practices, culture, and institutions. https://t.co/4RZZ8eZeGG — PolitiTweet.org

If you intend to demonstrate, please do so peacefully. Law enforcement must also use restraint and uphold their commitment to protect and serve. — PolitiTweet.org
