The administration is asking Congress to continue funding its cruel immigration policies and the president’s vanity project of a border wall. Enough. Today I'm leading 18 of my colleagues in opposing any additional funding for these irresponsible policies. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Republicans are trying to ban women who receive Medicaid from getting care at Planned Parenthood. I’m sick & tired of these relentless attacks on Americans’ access to health care. My colleagues & I have joined a legal brief to support women’s access to Planned Parenthood. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

People who are seeking asylum in our country are fleeing violence and persecution. We should be welcoming them, not detaining them indefinitely. This is not who we are. https://t.co/52ywMY2WVc — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

We must recognize this as a public health crisis: Black mothers are dying at alarming rates from pregnancy-related causes. Grateful to @RepUnderwood & @RepAdams for taking a critical step forward in this fight by forming the Black Maternal Health Caucus. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

The House has already passed a bill to reauthorize & expand the Violence Against Women Act. It’s time for the Senate to act. Protecting survivors of sexual assault shouldn't be about politics. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Congratulations to the @latimes for this much-deserved Pulitzer Prize! The work of our press is so important. Wonderful to see a California paper recognized for this exceptional investigative work. https://t.co/Kdciio0XAI — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

It's unconscionable to deport the widower of a service member killed in action. The truth is that the Trump Administration is targeting immigrants who pose no public safety threat. Our government shouldn’t be ripping families apart. That’s not who we are. https://t.co/TErWKIGiRc — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Something we're not talking about nearly enough: the maternal mortality rate in our country is worse than it was 25 years ago, with Black women 3 to 4 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Today is the *last day* to comment on the Trump Administration’s attempt to gut the Clean Water Act. These attacks on our fundamental right to clean water have got to stop. Make your voice heard 👇. https://t.co/peu047HLFz — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Today marks the first #TaxDay under the Republican tax law that overwhelmingly benefits corporations and the top 1%. Almost half of working families are a $400 unexpected expense away from financial disaster. They deserve a real tax cut. That's why I proposed the LIFT Act. https://t.co/qTcRWkZdKa — PolitiTweet.org

“...we build bridges, not walls.” If you need a reminder today of all the good that exists in our country, watch this video of Yo-Yo Ma performing a piece by Bach at our Southern border. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Using human beings as political pawns is reprehensible and has no place in our country. We are so much better than this. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

This is just plain cruel. The truth is that transgender students are facing alarming suicide rates. Rolling back guidance for schools on how to help and protect them is indefensible. https://t.co/PyfS5w3ukh — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

In America today, Black women are 3 to 4 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women. This is a painful fact that we must acknowledge so we can confront it. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek https://t.co/JhhY9DKGcb — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

There are just two days left to comment on the Trump Administration’s proposal to gut the Clean Water Act. We must continue to speak out against this attack on Americans’ fundamental right to clean water. Make sure your voice is heard & leave a comment👇. https://t.co/peu047Zn49 — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

.@RepJahanaHayes is right. This is a dangerous idea. No student should go to school, look up at the board and see their teacher strapped with a gun. Secretary DeVos must stop taxpayer money from being used to arm our teachers. https://t.co/XYWQ4kTLNb — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Don’t let this go unnoticed: these executive orders will pave the way for new oil pipelines like Keystone XL. It’s wrong and yet another example of the administration continuing to line the pockets of Big Oil at the expense of our environment. https://t.co/2QTtHaxqIP — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

We need to speak the uncomfortable truth that Black women in America are dying at higher rates from pregnancy-related causes in part because of racial biases that pervade our health care system. That needs to change. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek https://t.co/Ccy05iq4zV — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

The Trump Administration's ban on transgender people serving in the military takes effect today. Make no mistake: this is discrimination and an affront to our values. Anyone willing to risk their life for their country should be welcomed and allowed to serve. #FightTheBan — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

The United States should never force immigrants and refugees fleeing violence and unrest into military-run detention camps. It’s dehumanizing and just plain wrong. https://t.co/IIEwfslLUm — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

To the more than 25,000 UC workers who went on strike in California for higher wages and fairer labor practices: I stand with you in solidarity. Know that you are not alone. https://t.co/8DEabM0YOW — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Fact: Black women in America are 3 to 4 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women. This is a public health crisis and we need to give it the attention it deserves. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek #ListentoBlackWomen — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Reminder: the Republicans’ 2017 tax law was a scam that continues to benefit corporations and the top 1% at the expense working people and the middle class. https://t.co/8FNVR8OWt6 — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

This week I was proud to once again cosponsor the Medicare for All Act. Health care should be a right for all Americans, not a privilege – period. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Dogs are always welcome in my Senate office – here are a few paw-licy advisors who regularly stop by. #NationalPetDay https://t.co/vVbriFTlg5 — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Black women are dying at an alarming rate from pregnancy-related causes and too many people don't know about it. I introduced a Senate resolution to officially designate the next week #BlackMaternalHealthWeek. This is a public health crisis in America and we must raise awareness. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

The internet belongs to the people, not massive corporations who want to suppress competition for profit. Earlier today the House passed legislation to reverse the FCC's repeal of #NetNeutrality. We must pass it in the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Later this week the Trump Administration’s ban on transgender people serving in our military will go into effect. This is discrimination, plain and simple - but the fight is not over. We must welcome anyone who wants to serve their country in our armed forces. #FightTheBan — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

California's public lands are under attack by the administration and we need to fight for Americans’ right to clean air, clean water, and to enjoy the outdoors. Today, @SenFeinstein and I introduced bills to expand protections for over *1 million acres* of land in California. — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Kamala Harris @VP

Health care should be a right for everyone in our country, not a privilege for the few. I’m proud to once again cosponsor the Medicare for All Act to make sure every American has affordable, comprehensive health care. https://t.co/VToOeXB3dQ — PolitiTweet.org
