It’s up to all of us to honor the legacy of Congressman Lewis by standing up for our democratic values. Today and every day, I’ll continue doing all I can in Congress to ensure all Americans can participate in safe, free and fair elections. — PolitiTweet.org

#OTD 55 years ago, President Lyndon Johnson signed the monumental #VotingRightsAct into law after decades of activism by heroes like Congressman John Lewis. https://t.co/G4TMYrmeqZ — PolitiTweet.org

Reopening our schools must be based on facts & science—not politics. I urged Senate leadership to not bow to the Trump admin's desire to condition education funds in the next #COVID19 relief package on the reopening of schools for in-person instruction ➡️ https://t.co/bWffqc0fXS — PolitiTweet.org

I'm working to make sure school nutrition waivers are extended so that Nevada schools can keep delivering meals in socially distant settings, organizing drive-by grocery pick-ups & keeping food on the table for some of Nevada’s most vulnerable students ➡️ https://t.co/sWsTgEuQri — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Cortez Masto @SenCortezMasto

Over 32% of Nevada children are projected to face food insecurity in 2020. Nevada’s 17 school districts provide nutritious meals to school-aged kids every year, and school nutrition programs will need the support to deliver nutrition services in an unconventional school year. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Cortez Masto @SenCortezMasto

I've heard from many Nevada franchise business owners that they need greater protections from fraud. When I met with FTC Commissioner Chopra at the end of last year, I urged him to improve the franchise rule—and I'm glad to see him promise to do so today➡️ https://t.co/mjzFBll8yJ — PolitiTweet.org

People shouldn't be forced into signing away their rights simply to access a benefit to which they are entitled. The next #COVID19 stimulus package must prohibit the gov't from attaching forced arbitration agreements to any form of benefit payments ➡️ https://t.co/DEMeIB579o — PolitiTweet.org

NV—like so many states across the US—has been hard hit by #COVID19. That's why we need to waive the 20% funding match requirement that was included in the CARES Act election funds & provide that funding to state & local gov'ts to ensure the upcoming election is safe & successful — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Cortez Masto @SenCortezMasto

We need to do all we can to make sure Americans can safely exercise their right to vote this November, and to do that those of us in Congress need to include emergency election funding in the upcoming #COVID19 relief legislation. https://t.co/oVof4n0fcP — PolitiTweet.org

Housing discrimination continues to lock too many Black Americans out of the American dream of homeownership—& the homeownership gap btw Black & white Americans has actually grown since the Fair Housing Act was signed into law 50yrs ago. It's past time we closed the housing gap. — PolitiTweet.org

#COVID19 has impacted every aspect of our lives—including our schools. I've spoken to a mom whose kids had to take turns on her cell phone using her data to do their homework online. I'm fighting to ensure students have the tools they need to learn safely https://t.co/WLHRadwoRG — PolitiTweet.org

.@CDCgov& @HHSGov awarded $6M to help fund NV’s Overdose Data to Action programs, which conduct data-driven research into substance use disorders. This data can help us improve treatments & prevent people from struggling with substances in the first place. https://t.co/1ubEj2uB3U — PolitiTweet.org

NV’s world-class tourism economy has been devastated by the pandemic. Read more about my bipartisan bill that would fund grants for sanitation, staff, & marketing that will allow Nevadans & visitors alike to safely connect as the state continues to reopen https://t.co/ifzqLU83ZM — PolitiTweet.org

As we celebrate 55 years of our nation’s #Medicare & #Medicaid programs, I’m glad to be recognized as a #Medicare Advantage Congressional Champion of the Year. Know that I won't stop championing this program because I’m committed to protecting Medicare from this admin's threats. — PolitiTweet.org

We must honor the victims of the El Paso attack—and all victims of gun violence—by taking action in Congress to #EndGunViolence and protect our communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Cortez Masto @SenCortezMasto

Today, we remember the 23 people killed and the 22 injured when a white supremacist attacked the El Paso community. This attack remains the deadliest anti-Latino attack in modern American history. My thoughts are with the victims’ loved ones on this painful day. #RememberElPaso — PolitiTweet.org

High turnover rates of child welfare workers can leave the system unable to adequately meet the needs of at-risk populations. It’s time for Congress to act, which is why I’m proud to support a bill that aims to increase caseworker retention rates ➡️ https://t.co/IrH29rYcOp — PolitiTweet.org

La Oficina del Censo ha decidido reducir la cantidad de tiempo que pasará tocando puertas en todo el país. Este es otro movimiento deliberado de Trump para no contar nuestras comunidades. ¡No espere, llene el censo hoy! #HagaseContar https://t.co/j0Thv9Ol3x — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Cortez Masto @SenCortezMasto

Another deliberate move by the Trump admin to undercount communities. Ending door-knocking efforts a month early will leave out many people of color & historically undercounted groups like rural communities in Nevada. Don't wait—fill out the census today! https://t.co/j0Thv9Ol3x — PolitiTweet.org
