2017 was the first time the US resettled fewer refugees than the rest of the world—that number went down even more last year, despite there being more displaced people across the world than ever before. We must always remember what it means to be the United States of America. — PolitiTweet.org

Today is #WorldRefugeeDay. America has long been the promised land for so many refugees— but in recent years, the Trump administration has made it harder and harder for people fleeing persecution to find refuge here. Let’s all work to make sure we live up to our values. https://t.co/YdHplu8t53 — PolitiTweet.org

Given the brutality of war in Yemen and the Khashoggi murder, proud that Democrats and Republicans in the Senate took a strong stand against arms sales to Saudi Arabia today. It’s time for Trump administration to heed this bipartisan message. https://t.co/AAvP20MWZ2 — PolitiTweet.org

When the Gila River diversion project was first released, I voiced concerns over its price and environmental impact. 4 years of study & millions of $$ later, I’m convinced it’s time to move on. We must protect the Gila. Sacrificing it to a project like this one is irresponsible. https://t.co/8kJnkMKgHT — PolitiTweet.org

I’m introducing the EMPOWER Act to fix our presidential campaign finance system because our nation should be built on the power of the people, not billionaires w/ big checkbooks. When will @senatemajldr stop blocking our efforts to reform a badly broken campaign finance system? https://t.co/v7lMSQi187 — PolitiTweet.org

LIVE: I’m on the Senate floor with @timkaine and @senjeffmerkley demanding a vote to prevent war with Iran. We can’t let @POTUS and his admin bypass the Constitution and sink us into another endless war in the Middle East. https://t.co/x8HKJhxgFB — PolitiTweet.org

John Bolton and Mike Pompeo are getting the escalation they wanted with Iran. Further missteps could lead us into a disastrous war. Today, @timkaine, @SenJeffMerkley and I are taking to the Senate Floor to demand a vote to prevent an unconstitutional war with Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

I filed an amicus brief today with 50+ of my colleagues to stand up to the Trump administration's blatant attempt to help out the worst polluters in the industry—trampling efforts to protect taxpayers, safeguard public health and combat climate change. #cutmethane https://t.co/1prJATd4Wk — PolitiTweet.org

When the Trump administration rolled back the Methane Waste Prevention rule, they essentially took $ out of the people's pockets & gave it to polluters. NM is losing $42 mil+ in royalties that could go to schools & infrastructure—while methane leaks into our air. We need to act. — PolitiTweet.org

In my work & my life, strong women rule. Proud to join @politico to salute the #WomenChiefsofthe116th, including my chief of staff, Bianca--the only Latina chief of staff in the Senate. We need to work to ensure our Congress reflects the diversity of this country. #WomenLead https://t.co/hRMbmC037C — PolitiTweet.org

It's about time we repealed the 2001 AUMF – before the Trump administration illegally uses it to get us into another endless war in the Middle East. — PolitiTweet.org

We have to get serious about improving public safety for Native women & families. The Trump admin. says it's committed to helping. But DOI & DOJ didn’t bother to take a position on any of our bills at today's Indian Affairs hearing. What does that say about their “commitment”? https://t.co/x6TROx5l4M — PolitiTweet.org

The organizations and people at the border doing this incredible work embody the best of New Mexico— but they still need help & relief. That’s not a partisan issue. That's why the NM delegation requested these funds. I won’t stop working to get this done. https://t.co/pIEla00bUB — PolitiTweet.org

NM's border communities are on the front lines of the border humanitarian crisis, and doing everything they can to help. I’m glad the Senate agreement today includes $30 mil in reimbursements for border communities who have borne the burden of the federal government’s policies. — PolitiTweet.org

Join me in honoring #Juneteenth, when we commemorate the end of slavery in the U.S. As we do so, we must also recognize that slavery’s terrible legacy still looms over this nation in the lives of Black Americans. It's on all of us to fight for civil rights & true racial equality. — PolitiTweet.org

As long as this administration and GOP Senate refuse to act, it’s on all of us — states, lawmakers, communities — to create a better future. New Mexico has the groundwork to lead a clean energy economy, bringing investment & jobs to our state. We can’t afford to wait. — PolitiTweet.org

We need to #ActOnClimate change, and the agency charged with protecting our air and water should be on the front lines of that action. But the Trump EPA is more concerned with boosting profits for their corporate cronies than stopping the greatest threat facing our world. — PolitiTweet.org

Archive: Senator Tom Udall @SenatorTomUdall

"Profits over people" feels like the Trump @EPA motto at this point— today, they scrapped the Clean Power Plan, giving significant leeway to polluters. They’re surrendering in the fight against climate change, irreparably damaging our environment -- especially in the Southwest — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenatorLeahy, @ChrisVanHollen and I asked @SecBernhardt for a breakdown of costs and impacts for this event to ensure that funds aren’t misspent. Independence Day is about our unity, not division. https://t.co/qAAlJEqWPe — PolitiTweet.org

The July 4th celebration on the Mall brings Americans together— no matter what your background or political beliefs. I'm concerned that @POTUS is trying to make this a taxpayer-funded campaign rally and divert much-needed funds to new security concerns. — PolitiTweet.org

Meanwhile, he’s only making the humanitarian crisis at our border worse by cutting aid to Central America. He’d rather post fear-mongering tweets that threaten immigrants than do anything to address root causes — but that’s nothing new. — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump is threatening to make his failed and inhumane immigration policy even worse—stoking fear and chaos in immigrant communities in New Mexico and across the country. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump administration is brazenly signaling that it wants to go around Congress on Iran. That is unconstitutional. My bill to prevent an unauthorized war with Iran is needed more than ever. @senatemajldr, when will you bring it to the floor? https://t.co/yDkGXptcyP — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump @Interior Dept. must be held accountable, and that’s why @BettyMcCollum04 and I asked @USGAO to look into potentially illegal leasing practices on public lands. I’m glad the GAO has taken this up and I’m looking forward to getting answers. https://t.co/bm6kSu936g — PolitiTweet.org

Then we should vote on my bipartisan amendment to prevent an unauthorized war with Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the dangerous & predictable consequence of @POTUS withdrawing from the Iran deal. Now we’re stumbling to the brink of war without the support of our allies. Congress must step up to prevent war with Iran & avert one of the biggest foreign policy blunders in decades. — PolitiTweet.org
