Small farmers are struggling to survive after the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic. So @SenJeffMerkley, @RonWyden, @SenSanders, @SenBooker, and I introduced a bill to get them the direct economic relief they need to keep their farms running. — PolitiTweet.org

Commanders, survivors, and legal experts agree — we need to remove ALL serious non-military crimes from the chain of command. The Military Justice Improvement and Increasing Prevention Act has a bipartisan, filibuster-proof majority of support. It's time to #PassMJIIPA. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

4 past Presidents of the National Institute of Military Justice agree: If you only remove the decision to prosecute sexual assault cases from the chain of command, it will create "pink courts" that stigmatize survivors and destroy unit cohesion. https://t.co/Ee7tRhnALN — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

None of the criticisms of the Military Justice Improvement and Increasing Prevention Act hold up to scrutiny. They're just delay tactics. And every day we delay this vote is another day we deny justice to our service members.   It's time to hold a vote and #PassMJIIPA. https://t.co/7xHifhe4cd — PolitiTweet.org

I want every family to be able to enjoy their time outdoors without worrying about falling ill from a tick bite. That's why I'm calling for funding to research prevention and treatment of Lyme and other tick-borne diseases. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2019, we passed a provision to make it safer for members of the armed services to report sexual assault.   It passed the House and Senate – but was cut in conference.   We won't allow the same thing to happen to #MJIIPA. It deserves a full floor vote now. https://t.co/GrFjhjK1b6 — PolitiTweet.org

Eunice Lee would be the first judge on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals with experience as a federal public defender, and just the second Black woman. She is a dedicated public servant committed to fairness, and I was proud to introduce her before the Judiciary Committee. https://t.co/YVgHAm8Mr9 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

Fewer than 1 in 10 military sexual assault cases are sent to trial. Nearly two-thirds of survivors experience some form of retaliation for reporting the crime.   That means survivors are far more likely to face consequences than their assailants.   It's time to #PassMJIIPA. https://t.co/snJK5bAXW7 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand @gillibrandny

I was deeply grateful to be the guest of honor at yesterday’s Marine Corps Sunset Parade. Our service members put their lives on the line to keep us safe. It is my responsibility as a senator to make sure that the government you serve and defend is serving you as well. https://t.co/l50vfTxar6 — PolitiTweet.org

Today @SenAlexPadilla & I introduced two bills to invest $10 billion to clean up toxic PFAS chemicals at some of the most contaminated military sites across the country. Our service members risk their lives to keep us safe. It's our duty to protect them & their families’ health. — PolitiTweet.org

Women are the primary breadwinners in 40% of US households. Paycheck fairness isn't just a women's issue, it's an economic justice issue. It's time to pass the #PaycheckFairnessAct and put an end to wage discrimination for good. https://t.co/0SM4R61KTv — PolitiTweet.org

If Trump's extreme justices on the Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade, 24 states could immediately ban abortion. I'm proud to cosponsor the Women's Health Protection Act to put an end to state bans on abortion and protect our constitutional rights. #ActForAbortionAccess https://t.co/pfqaqIxWM6 — PolitiTweet.org

Opponents of #MJIIPA claim it will undermine good order and discipline. This is the same weak argument trotted out when Black people, women, and LGBTQ+ people wanted to serve. They were wrong. Our military became stronger. And it will be even stronger when we pass #MJIIPA. https://t.co/haVcohdzjy — PolitiTweet.org
