This week the Senate passed a resolution from @lisamurkowski and I honoring Native women. From working on the front lines during #COVID19 to serving in highest levels of gov't & Tribal leadership, Native women make indelible contributions to our communities every day. Thank you. — PolitiTweet.org

And finally, let's put together a National Service program so recent graduates and young workers can choose to work and contribute to our national recovery. We can put people to work in their communities and ensure young people do not lose their chance at a future. — PolitiTweet.org

It's essential that we guarantee unemployment and direct payments for as long as the public health crisis persists. Until social distancing, testing, and tracing get COVID-19 in check, we need to keep families safe and supported throughout this unprecedented crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

State, tribal and local gov’t budgets in NM and the US are being devastated. Congress must act or we will see millions of public servants like teachers, police, firefighters, public health, and sanitation workers lose their jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

This is why we need much more state, tribal & local gov’t relief in the next #COVID19 bill. We also need: ➡️Monthly direct payments & extend expanded unemployment benefits for the duration of the crisis ➡️A national service plan More info: — PolitiTweet.org

I introduced a bill this week to expand National Service options to combat the COVID-19 crisis. We can help put people to work through service— growing the economy while assisting communities in New Mexico and across the nation, especially in rural communities and Indian Country. — PolitiTweet.org

Nurses are the heartbeat of our health care system, and in the midst of this pandemic, nurses are putting their lives on the line to fight #COVID19 in NM & across the nation. This National Nurses Week, let’s renew our commitment to honoring our nation’s nurses every single day. https://t.co/9WBs9fhpUL — PolitiTweet.org

Vets exposed to burn pits face greater risks from #COVID19. We need more resources to treat them and get the help they need, and to ensure that the VA has adequate PPE and support to get through this crisis. https://t.co/4FI1zDYQcT — PolitiTweet.org

I am deeply disappointed that @POTUS vetoed our resolution to prevent unconstitutional war w/ Iran, and that the Senate did not override his veto to protect the Constitution. But there is bipartisan momentum behind this effort. The American people do not want a war with Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump administration has the worst environmental record in history. And their rollbacks continue during the pandemic. This article lays out in detail how they have put the profits of polluters ahead of clean air and water. Shameful. https://t.co/wl8aomuFbk — PolitiTweet.org

This comes on the heels of the president’s new, highly-politicized pick for Postmaster General— a top Trump donor. The @USPS is in danger if the new Postmaster General plans to carry @POTUS' plans for privatization and settling his personal grudges. https://t.co/yu1dQp2Unb — PolitiTweet.org

I led this letter calling on the Trump administration to stop playing politics with @USPS funding. The postal service needs relief—and it shouldn’t be privatized or used as a weapon to settle the president’s political grudges. https://t.co/bPj1yvCeA4 — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump administration needs to stop threatening the U.S. Postal Service. It’s a fundamental public service and a lifeline for so many across NM & our nation, especially in rural America. We must protect USPS: https://t.co/SYCZvOf07m — PolitiTweet.org

Our resolution to stop unconstitutional war with Iran isn’t about an election—it is about standing up for the Constitution. That’s why Democrats AND Republicans voted to pass it. — PolitiTweet.org

I fought hard to get rural broadband funding into the #CARESAct because access to the internet is more important than ever while people everywhere stay home during this pandemic. I'm glad to see $23 mil in #CARESAct broadband grants are going to communities in NM that need it. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm happy to see NM do the right thing & give pay raises to those on the front lines. We need a "heroes fund" on the national level. Frontline workers risking their health deserve more than words of gratitude: we must ensure they're paid what they deserve. https://t.co/XJaorZ9XJ3 — PolitiTweet.org

The time is right to invest in these programs, which will bring economic opportunity and critical assistance to communities in New Mexico and across the country that need it, especially in rural communities and Indian Country. — PolitiTweet.org

Right now, roughly 20% of American workers are out of a job, and a million+ graduates are about to enter the workforce. That's why I'm introducing a bill to expand National Service options to combat the COVID-19 crisis. https://t.co/XcZ6sEP1tb — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to announce $114 million in funding for 160 rural NM health care providers. This funding is critical for these brave providers to continue serving New Mexico’s rural and high-risk populations. Rural hospitals are lifelines for their communities. https://t.co/EQ7EVHGnRM — PolitiTweet.org

I'm glad to announce $1.6 million in grants to NM Public Housing Authorities for rental assistance. This will help sustain local public housing authorities as they process an unprecedented need for secure and reliable public housing. https://t.co/hROMASx23y — PolitiTweet.org

I’m relieved the Trump administration is finally starting to get this funding out the door. But it’s too little, too late. Native communities needed these resources weeks ago. The full fund should have been distributed by now. — PolitiTweet.org

Today is #NationalTeacherAppreciationDay, and it couldn’t be more timely.
