Employees have a right to unionize without fear of being shamed or attacked by their employer. End of story. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

Had a such a great time speaking to the @DSMpartnership at #DMDC2019—appreciate all the work that you do on behalf of the issues you care so deeply about. Thanks for having me today! https://t.co/6eQfl2orRI — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

Our president loves to talk about taking care of union workers, but watch what he does, not what he says. With his admin constantly attacking worker’s rights, I’m glad that we have unions like @MachinistsUnion advocating for the right to organize. Proud to fight in solidarity. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @NPWF: We talked a lot about #paidleave today. Here's what it really boils down to: The #FAMILYAct "is the best plan for our country. No… — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

After today's hearing in the House on paid family leave, it's clear that we urgently need a national paid leave program—and that members of both parties want one. But we need to do it right. Here's why the #FAMILYAct is the best paid leave plan out there: https://t.co/aZf2suKXrF — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

The U.S. is the ONLY major developed country in the world without paid leave. Our economy is held back when workers are forced to choose between a paycheck and caring for a loved one. That, for sure, is embarrassing. Let's get this done and finally pass national paid leave. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

Today, the House @WaysMeansCmte holds its first hearing on paid family leave, a clear sign of momentum and will to finally get paid leave to every American worker. Let's ensure that we fight for a comprehensive, inclusive program like the #FAMILYAct. https://t.co/QnGCQJvGHb — PolitiTweet.org

Barr skips the hearing & other witnesses are kept from testifying. Now, the president is doing all he can to shield the report from the public. What on earth is he trying to hide? His lack of respect for the Constitution & rule of law is outrageous. Americans deserve the truth. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

@SenSchumer Moving forward on these nominees without the support of both home-state Senators is unacceptable and violates longstanding tradition. As long as Senate Republicans intend to preside over a broken confirmation process, I plan to oppose these—and all—Circuit Court nominations. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

This week, despite objections by @SenSchumer and myself, Senate Republicans are pushing to confirm two far-right-wing judicial nominees, Michael Park and Joseph Bianco, to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, which is in New York City. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

When I traveled to the border, I saw firsthand the cruelty of Trump's family separation policy and the pain it has inflicted on children and families. A year after this policy was issued, families continue to suffer. It's atrocious. We have to fight #UntilEveryFamilyIsReunited. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

Teachers make a huge difference in their students' lives—educating and inspiring our children to be the best they can be! So on this National Teacher Appreciation Day, be sure to show your gratitude to these everyday heroes and #ThankATeacher today. — PolitiTweet.org

We know that discrimination in credit lending is a problem, but we need more data to better understand its scope and protect consumers. I'm announcing legislation to create transparency in credit lending and help identify predatory lending patterns: https://t.co/JiZERLXweh — PolitiTweet.org

Ramadan Mubarak—wishing good health, a blessed time for reflection, and a meaningful month of fasting to all who observe! — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

It’s clear that this administration—this president—will stop at nothing to gut the Affordable Care Act and take coverage away from millions of Americans with pre-existing conditions. Horrifying. https://t.co/u4K2dFROci — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

This week, the Trump administration finalized a rule that would allow health care providers to put personal bias ahead of patient needs, which could be dangerous for women and LGBTQ Americans seeking care. This is codified discrimination—and it's unconscionable. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

The newest statistics on sexual assault in our military are as bad as they were when I first started advocating for reforms five years ago. I'm tired of the excuses. I'm tired of statements from commanders that say “zero tolerance.” We have to do better. https://t.co/w75ij6oL5B — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

It's been almost 6 years since the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs said that the Pentagon would try to solve this problem. The status quo isn't working. Congress must bring accountability where @DeptofDefense has repeatedly failed. We must pass the Military Justice Improvement Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

As we observe Yom HaShoah, we remember the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust. Today—in the wake of the devastating violence occurring in our Jewish communities—let's show that we are more united than ever in the fight against anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

It is high time for this country to rebuild, expand, and make critical investments in our infrastructure, from public transit to our water systems. I hope this will be the start of real progress toward a comprehensive plan this year. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

Was AG Barr truly impartial in his handling of the Special Counsel’s investigation? I’m deeply concerned that he wasn’t and the American people deserve the truth—so I’ve joined my Senate colleagues in calling on the DOJ’s inspector general to investigate. https://t.co/bME8DAtkPj — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

On #MayDay, we celebrate the hard fought gains made by our nation's workers. Workers are the backbone of our economy and make immeasurable contributions to our country each day—let's continue to come together in solidarity and in support of labor and immigrant rights. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

I have met asylum seekers who are fleeing horrific circumstances and violence. The Trump administration's new policies are devoid of compassion and rooted in fear—a clear attack on our fundamental values. https://t.co/0sTUUSVyc4 — PolitiTweet.org

We celebrated my dear friend @CoryBooker’s 50th (which was this past weekend) with a little surprise party in his office. I think he’ll look good in the shirts I got him. Happy birthday, Cory! https://t.co/s1WOe9Alwq — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

I am devastated at the news of another shooting at a place of worship—another hateful, intolerable act of anti-Semitism. My heart goes out to the Chabad of Poway and to the victims, survivors, first responders, and their families. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

Glad that a federal judge has blocked Trump's #TitleX gag rule from taking effect. While this a relief for millions who rely on this program, the administration's repeated attacks on women's health won't let up anytime soon—and we must keep fighting. https://t.co/Nu0EcdK7Zx — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

New York is a leader in the country's maple industry, so I'm leading the fight to secure more funding for a program to support our Upstate maple producers. (And if you ever get the chance to try maple syrup from Upstate, you must. It's the best!) https://t.co/fxMXgqUoQE — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

Thanks to @MelbasHarlem and other participants for a productive discussion about how we can better serve the needs of small businesses and employees across New York State. https://t.co/t8vSclZA4o — PolitiTweet.org
