For years, I have called on companies like Amazon to stop selling facial recognition tech. But we need to go bigger than one company at a time. Yesterday, I introduced bold legislation that finally ensures this imprecise and invasive tech is reined in. https://t.co/2qcWudi365 — PolitiTweet.org

COVID hasn't stopped. COVID relief shouldn't stop either. We must act now to get help directly to people in Seattle and across this country—so they can make rent, pay their bills, and put food on the table. https://t.co/lUn1akQcOs — PolitiTweet.org

People across America do NOT support Betsy DeVos. But just as Pence had to save her Senate confirmation, Trump is trying to save her corrupt policy that puts predatory, for-profit colleges over the students they cheated. The House must stop DeVos by overriding Trump's veto. https://t.co/IMpaVGNuuP — PolitiTweet.org

5 years ago, we secured marriage equality as the law of the land with the landmark #ObergefellvHodges ruling. It affirmed what we've always known: Love is love & equality wins. Our fight for full LGBTQ+ equality continues. And it starts with the Senate passing the Equality Act. — PolitiTweet.org

On the 7th anniversary of the dangerous Shelby County v. Holder Supreme Court decision, we must recommit to restoring and expanding the Voting Rights Act, ending racist voter suppression efforts, and building a Democracy that ensures every voice is finally heard. — PolitiTweet.org

Facial recognition has operated in an unregulated wild west, and has been weaponized by police against Black people for far too long. I introduced legislation to ensure this imprecise and invasive technology is finally reined in. https://t.co/fk6xxbF2Lk — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal
I rise for all of our Black siblings who have been killed by police. But it's not enough just to say their names. It's not enough just to say that Black lives matter. We must fight for Black lives—and for transformative change. This starts by passing the Justice in Policing Act. https://t.co/R2d6pgsgav — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal
The legislation -- which I introduced today alongside @RepPressley, @RepRashida, @RepYvetteClarke, @SenJeffMerkley, and @SenMarkey -- would also strip federal support for state and local law enforcement departments that use biometric technology. https://t.co/lC2zBcKdU6 — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal
Facial recognition tech has not only been invasive, inaccurate, & unregulated but it has also been unapologetically weaponized by law enforcement against Black people. I'm proud to introduce bicameral legislation that stops federal entities from using it. https://t.co/ube8DoFQOs — PolitiTweet.org

We don't need more studies. We know what's wrong. Chokeholds are wrong. No-knock warrants are wrong. Militarized policing is wrong. Qualified immunity is wrong. We need action. We need to transform policing. Today, we will vote on the Justice in Policing Act as a first step. https://t.co/x1tTN7ad2P — PolitiTweet.org

Not only do workers not have sufficient PPE, but they're also facing retribution for speaking out about unsafe conditions. Workers' lives are NOT disposable. @repmarkpocan and I led colleagues in demanding that @NLRB put a stop to this cruel mistreatment. https://t.co/MmIxzWUGBn — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump calling COVID-19 the “kung flu” is the same racist, xenophobic, bigoted, fear mongering crap we've always heard from him. We are so much better than this hate, division, and dangerous rhetoric. And we are going to defeat it. https://t.co/quJUZAZD1V — PolitiTweet.org

At our @HouseJudiciary hearing with DOJ whistleblowers, the rules of this Attorney General were clear: Give the president’s friends special treatment, keep your job.
