Amazing work. Support @ReverendWarnock: https://t.co/GHtiG1k4oZ — PolitiTweet.org

The House passed the HEROES Act back in May. But instead of voting on it in the Senate, McConnell spent weeks on a plan that will do little to help the millions who are out of work through no fault of their own. We need to act now. Lives depend on it. Our economy depends on it. — PolitiTweet.org

The Postal Service has endured a civil war, two world wars, the Great Depression, the Cold War, and numerous recessions. But it may not endure the Trump administration. Congress must step in with the emergency funding that the USPS desperately needs. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Congress remains at an impasse on an economic relief plan. Why? Because McConnell and Senate Republicans remain unwilling to extend relief to the millions who need to meet basic needs during this crisis—and to states and cities who need money to maintain essential services. — PolitiTweet.org

If left unchecked, the MTA's budget deficits will have devastating consequences on the lives of millions of New Yorkers—including the essential workers and commuters who rely on its services for work. We cannot afford to fail them. https://t.co/eIqNJQiRgg — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago today, 23 people were killed and 22 were wounded in a horrific white supremacist attack in El Paso, Texas. As we remember those lost, we recommit to rooting out hate and xenophobia, to protecting Latino communities, and to ending gun violence across the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Congress must pass an extension to the $600 federal unemployment insurance benefit without any delay. — PolitiTweet.org

Such a beautiful moment. I am in constant awe of Gabby's resilience and tireless commitment to service. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Patsy Mink broke many barriers throughout her life. She was the first woman of color elected to Congress—and the driving force behind Title IX. But beyond that, she encouraged women to radically re-imagine what their lives could look like. We owe a great deal to her advocacy. https://t.co/eDfzXWHzF0 — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

State and local governments across the country are in desperate need of federal relief to continue providing essential services. But McConnell is willing to let these cities go bankrupt. It's outrageous. The economy can't recover if local governments fall by the wayside. — PolitiTweet.org

To our Muslim sisters and brothers observing Eid al-Adha in New York and around the world: Eid Mubarak! Wishing you a safe, joyous celebration. — PolitiTweet.org

Today's episode of The Daily details our ongoing fight to reform how sexual assault cases are handled in the military. For every service member who has come forward to tell their story and shine a light on this scourge, I won't stop pushing for justice. https://t.co/h7DNeflSHs — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans are letting the $600 federal unemployment insurance benefit expire today. This is the only thing keeping many American workers afloat during this crisis. We need to rectify this and pass an extension, now. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Trump wants to distract from the fact that we're still facing a pandemic and our economy is in shambles. And that he and Senate Republicans aren't fixing it. Remember: When we had time to put forth solutions, McConnell sent the Senate home for two weeks and Trump went golfing. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Mitch McConnell needs to help keep working Americans afloat by extending the $600 unemployment insurance benefit. It’s not just a vital lifeline for our families, it’s a boost to our economy. We do not have time to waste. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Last month, more than 12 million renters were unable to pay rent. This month, that number could double to 24 million. We are on the brink of a serious housing crisis and our communities need relief. We have to extend the federal eviction moratorium. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Today's poll out of Georgia has Donald Trump and Joe Biden TIED, 47%-47%. This is the year we turn Georgia blue. If you're with me, can you chip in tonight? https://t.co/PsbEMcyB1a — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

In 1990, thousands of Americans with disabilities marched to the Capitol to demonstrate how inaccessible architecture impacts them. This protest, the Capitol Crawl, led to the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act. We honor their brave advocacy as we commemorate #ADA30. https://t.co/jKactfq3en — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

The argument that unemployment insurance disincentivizes a return to work ignores the facts. A new study from Yale found no evidence that recipients of more generous benefits were less likely to return to work. And right now, there aren’t millions of jobs for them to return to. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Extend the federal eviction moratorium. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Drawing from personal experiences, @TimsDesiree wrote of the country's gun violence epidemic, its traumatic impact on Black women and Black communities, and how these issues are fueling her run for Congress. Her words are worth your time: https://t.co/S6PkapypHw — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

Extend the $600 unemployment insurance benefit. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

It was an honor to accept the #WeAreEMILY award—and a whole lot of fun to do so alongside @KamalaHarris, @amyklobuchar, and @ewarren! Thanks for having me tonight. — PolitiTweet.org

With everything on the line this election, we must work to ensure that every voter can safely vote by mail. On National Vote By Mail Day, learn how you can request your ballot: https://t.co/V6wUl9Ju2E https://t.co/T6ZlLz8MlH — PolitiTweet.org

As well as $50 billion to ensure that child care providers can re-open safely. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

We need universal vote-by-mail. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

The Senate should pass a stimulus plan that meets the needs of millions. We can increase food stamps, provide rental assistance and extend unemployment benefits. We can help child care providers and give emergency paid leave. Let's give families the relief they need. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand

I'm thrilled that, as part of his agenda to address economic security for women (and all working caregivers), @JoeBiden will create a national paid family and medical leave program based on my bill, the FAMILY Act. Read more about it in his plan: — PolitiTweet.org
