If you lost your job, you qualify for a special 60 day window to sign up for health insurance/Medicaid. Please take advantage. @HouseDemocrats are trying to pass legislation to cover healthcare during unemployment for free, but the GOP has blocked it. — PolitiTweet.org

Over 90,000 Americans have died from COVID-19 because of the administration's failed response. That adds up to the population of every small community in my district, combined. A group of people the size of entire towns and cities, gone. We can't normalize this. — PolitiTweet.org

Still waiting on your $1,200 emergency relief payment? Check the IRS’ “Get My Payment” page or call the hotline at 800-919-9835. https://t.co/AWrNiZjXqp — PolitiTweet.org

We have seen a tragic increase in cases of domestic violence during this crisis. I’ve cosponsored legislation with @RepWexton to ramp up the federal government’s support to local law enforcement and victims’ advocates. — PolitiTweet.org

Important: there have been reports of some assisted living facilities seizing the $1,200 emergency relief payments of residents. This is illegal. If you hear of this, report it to the state Attorney General. — PolitiTweet.org

90,000 Americans have died. 33 million out of work. Yet President Trump can’t see past his vendetta against President Obama—like Captain Ahab, unable to look past his white whale as the ship is smashed to splinters around him. He has never been able to put the country first. — PolitiTweet.org

This goes for the president and the governor of Florida: you can’t build public trust by hiding the information, and you can’t stop a pandemic by pretending it doesn’t exist. Trust and accountability are two-way streets. Please, put American lives before politics. — PolitiTweet.org

One public health professor said this, regarding Florida’s handling of coronavirus data: “They think they can save their own political interest by restricting information.” It’s unacceptable. https://t.co/oBe9sxHlMC — PolitiTweet.org

According to a new report, social distancing orders helped to control the outbreak of covid-19. I want to thank the Floridians and others who took actions to protect our communities, including taking physical distancing seriously. You helped to save lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Whenever the president and his defenders brush off the seriousness of this pandemic, what message are they sending about the 90,000 Americans who have died? — PolitiTweet.org

Millions of children in America don’t have the internet access they need to do “remote learning” from home. Our legislation will help connect these households. No child should be condemned to a limited future because their family can’t afford to connect to their education. — PolitiTweet.org

I introduced bipartisan legislation last year to close this gun loophole. We should pass it, the Senate should pass it, and the president should sign it. It’s simply common sense that any person shouldn’t be able to get a gun anywhere, anytime. — PolitiTweet.org

“There is no doubt the American postal system is the greatest in the world…and any American citizen is proud to have it the greatest in the world.” - Marshall Henry Cushing, 1893. Last week @HouseDemocrats passed $25 billion to save the postal service. — PolitiTweet.org

Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings

The president is purging the safeguards that protect our democracy. He thinks that if he fires the person in charge of oversight, then there's no scandal, just like he thinks that if you don't test for COVID-19, then the cases don't exist.

The goodness of America is all around us. People give food to elderly neighbors. Communities stitch masks for nurses. A government of compassion, duty, honor, and fidelity isn’t too much to ask. In fact, it would be fundamentally American. — PolitiTweet.org

Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings

The president should stop blaming the medical experts (whose advise he ignored) and start taking responsibility. As President Reagan said, “I am the one who is ultimately accountable to the American people.” — PolitiTweet.org

Has this administration been distributing the emergency COVID relief fairly? The public deserves to know. I’ve joined @RepKatiePorter on her legislation to make all of this data publicly available. — PolitiTweet.org

Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings

Last week @HouseDemocrats passed the next state of emergency relief to save lives and our economy. Republicans in the Senate have rejected it but offered nothing in return. People are hurting. We need action. — PolitiTweet.org

If you live in a Fannie- or Freddie-backed home, you are immune from eviction or foreclosure until at least June 30th. If you believe you are being illegally evicted, contact a tenant advocate or your local law enforcement department. — PolitiTweet.org

The GOP is trying to make this all about China because they know that otherwise it's about the president and his failure to protect us. — PolitiTweet.org

African Kingdoms. Trans-Atlantic slavery. The Civil War. Reconstruction. Jim Crow. Civil Rights. Science, art, innovation, scholarship, music. Black History is American History. I've joined @RepMarciaFudge to introduce legislation requiring that American schools include it. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to @RepTedDeutch, @GReschenthaler, @RepMaxineWaters, and @RepBonamici for leading this bipartisan effort to keep all Americans with Alzheimer’s Disease safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings

Working with people who have Alzheimer’s disease can be complicated and difficult, and first responders should have professional training they need to keep these individuals safe in their interactions. I’ve cosponsored legislation to expand these resources. — PolitiTweet.org
