The Trump administration's lawsuit would kick millions of Americans off their insurance and end protections for pre-existing conditions in the middle of a pandemic. This deadly mixture of cruelty and Presidential incompetence puts the lives of countless Americans at risk. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

I’ve got a bill to fix this, which we affectionately call the “Stop Paying Dead People Act.” The Senate should pass it! https://t.co/OIs1eWFZVc — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

Tens of thousands of new COVID cases per day Millions of Americans out of work (and losing their insurance) And the Trump administration is trying to dismantle the Affordable Care Act with no plan for a replacement. #DroptheLawsuit — PolitiTweet.org

This is a fitting and well-deserved honor for a great Virginian. Mary Jackson’s work at @NASA_Langley was invaluable to the space program, and I’m glad she’s finally getting the recognition she’s so long deserved. — PolitiTweet.org

Outrageous. These public servants should not face financial hardship because of circumstances beyond their control. https://t.co/hUBM8msDbI — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

When the President said "slow down the testing," he meant it. We are in the middle of a pandemic that's killed more than 120,000 Americans. Almost 35,000 new cases yesterday. This is absolutely insane. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

This is a civil rights issue that is at the core of our democracy. The right to vote belongs to the voters, not to politicians. It’s our job to make sure Americans can exercise their rights in a way that is safe and secure. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

Whatever steps that states and localities take, we need to combat the spread of election misinformation by publicizing any changes to voting procedures months in advance of the election, in a variety of languages and formats. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

In Virginia, we have what’s called “curbside voting,” where seniors and people with disabilities can vote from their car. This is another safe and secure way for people to cast their ballots without exposing themselves to coronavirus. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

Similarly, same-day absentee ballots are another way to accommodate and expand access for qualified voters who are trying to safely exercise their right to vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

Let’s start with no-excuse mail-in voting. No matter what misinformation the President spreads about mail-in voting, we know it is safe and secure. Registered voters who determine they cannot safely go to the polls should be able to vote by mail. Period. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

At a more basic level, we just need to make it easier to vote. This is not rocket science. We already know what works because many of these policies have been used in both red and blue states for years. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

And rather than closing polling places that don’t comply, we should make sure they are accessible, that poll workers are appropriately trained, and that reasonable accommodations are made. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

Also at particular risk are Americans with disabilities. For starters, any coronavirus-related voting policies should be ADA compliant. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

We know that in almost every state, evidence suggests that Black Americans have been disproportionately affected by the virus. We must prevent COVID-19 from being used as a pretext to suppress the vote in communities of color. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

If states and localities plan to make coronavirus screening part of the voting process, those policies need strong privacy, security, and civil rights protections in place well before election day. — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

We are calling on the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, @NASSorg, and @NASEDorg to proactively defend the right to vote and prevent policies that could suppress vulnerable and historically disenfranchised voters. Here’s what we need to do: https://t.co/kfXu8XUQqY — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Warner @MarkWarner

From Wisconsin to Georgia to Kentucky, we are already seeing a dangerous trend of making voters choose between their safety and their right to vote. Today @SenateDems on the committee responsible for elections are calling for new protections to prevent voter suppression: — PolitiTweet.org

Started the day at Belle Haven Park along the GW Parkway in Alexandria, one of many @NatlParkService properties in Virginia with overdue repairs. Now that the Senate has passed our Great American Outdoors Act, it's time for the House to do the same so we can #RestoreOurParks. https://t.co/awUEHrI900 — PolitiTweet.org

119,000 people are dead, and the President doesn’t care how many more people get sick, as long he doesn’t have to take responsibility for it. — PolitiTweet.org
