We've seen the corrupting force money plays in politics. My Clean Elections Plan will give power back to everyday Americans and ensure our elected officials are actually fighting for the people they represent. https://t.co/2lKD97bnZK — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve voted against President Trump’s cabinet and administration picks (including John Kelly in 2017) more than any other Senator. Why? Because they weren’t fit for the job—just like the president who appointed them. https://t.co/Ot120LrCsk https://t.co/aSy4mElURb — PolitiTweet.org

Today in Texas, a disability rights activist asked me what I would do to meet standards of inclusion. I've committed to having someone with disabilities in my Cabinet, because I want to get this right. Accessibility and inclusion are issues I'll take on with urgency and care. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Right now, most of the money in our politics comes from a small group of mostly white, mostly older men. My Clean Elections Plan would amplify more voices, like a similar program did in Seattle. When we bring more people to the table, our government works better for all of us. https://t.co/T4EFziKSsj — PolitiTweet.org

I was honored to have @MonicaSibri at our campaign kickoff. She's a DREAMer, an advocate for immigrants and women, and now she's headed to graduate school. We need more brave leaders like her—if you can, please chip in to support her dreams: https://t.co/Gq5qSQPPdf — PolitiTweet.org

Representing Iowans means ALL Iowans. Signing this bill and widening health care disparities doesn’t make @IAGovernor a leader, it makes her a bully. https://t.co/KkGGuWq6ul — PolitiTweet.org

If we want working families to thrive, we must take every opportunity to support workers and their right to collectively bargain for better wages and benefits. I'm proud to be an original cosponsor of the Protecting the Right to Organize Act, and I urge Congress to pass it. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Can we have a good time *and* talk about the issues people care about? Absolutely. Thanks for a great event @MartiGCummings! https://t.co/qTQZ6cRr6i — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

This is immoral, un-American, and will hurt millions of women and transgender people. Religious freedom doesn't give anyone the right to deny health care. https://t.co/2doyCle0EJ — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

If we want to change the way Washington works—or make it work at all—we have to get big money out of politics. My Clean Elections Plan is designed to do just that by making every American's voice just as powerful as the Koch brothers': https://t.co/DFlgOl5F50 https://t.co/g6YzKSpHvv — PolitiTweet.org

The gratitude is mutual, @MartiGCummings! — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

On this #NationalDayOfPrayer, we must face the reality that not everyone is safe in their house of worship. America is supposed to welcome all people, regardless of faith. My prayer is that we can restore our moral fabric, reject hate, and live up to who we're supposed to be. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

We need a president who's brave enough to take on corruption in Washington. Americans have lost faith in our democracy because elected officials are more beholden to big donors and special interests than they are to the people. My Clean Elections Plan would change that. https://t.co/C424hHz3pB — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

My Clean Elections Plan would flip our current political system on its head—empowering more women, young people, and people of color to have a say in our government and set our course for a more equal and just future. https://t.co/zYIv2dHoU8 — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Thirty-eight percent. This is unacceptable, and I’m tired of excuses from the Pentagon. They are failing our service members and have proven they can’t fix this. My bill would. We need the Military Justice Improvement Act now. https://t.co/v8b5Zkzqay — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

I'll go anywhere, any time, to make the case for progressive policies that will make life better for American families. Looking forward to my town hall in Iowa with Chris Wallace. https://t.co/adrC85knfI — PolitiTweet.org

I've been concerned about AG Barr since his nomination, which is why I voted against it. After yesterday's hearing, there's no question that he's more focused on representing the president than the American people. It's an embarrassment to his office and he should resign. https://t.co/OLhJ8XYBxF — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

By eliminating a current taxpayer subsidy for excessive CEO compensation—25 times the median salary of their employees, or more than $1 million—we'd fully fund my Clean Elections Plan and then some. That's leveling the playing field in more ways than one. https://t.co/DFlgOl5F50 — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

It's clear the Trump Administration will stop at nothing to take health care away from tens of millions of Americans and end coverage for pre-existing conditions. We have to vote like our lives depend on it—because for many families, they do. https://t.co/ub3ufqLnyZ — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Labor movements all over the world have given us the hard-fought rights workers have today—and with those rights under attack more than ever, we have to hold that line. This #InternationalWorkersDay, let's keep up the fight for strong unions and a strong middle class. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

We will never accomplish our boldest, most progressive policy ideas if we don't get big money out of politics first. My Clean Elections Plan is a way to get there. Read more about it here: https://t.co/gxNvsR1XPO — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Plans like mine will put our elections back in the hands of the people instead of special interests—and in a functioning democracy, shouldn't that be the standard? https://t.co/ySQ259oByN — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Not only do clean elections make candidates less beholden to big money, but they amplify more voices in the process. Historically political donors have been disproportionately white, male, older and very wealthy. Democracy Dollars will bring more people to the table. https://t.co/glKSOxhgLO — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

How can we know if my Clean Elections Plan will work? The answer is, it already has. My plan is modeled in part off of a program in Seattle, which has led to candidates relying less on big money, making them more accountable to their constituents. https://t.co/YRBxoIMR51 — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

In commemoration of #YomHaShoah, we honor the millions of lives taken in the Holocaust—and we must recommit to fighting the rising threats of anti-Semitism, bigotry and white supremacy around the globe and here at home. Our silence is not an option. — PolitiTweet.org
