Here's the math: In a typical week there are 168 hours. A minimum wage worker in Hawaii has to work 153 hours to afford a 2 bedroom apartment. Only 15 hours not working per week. 15 hours. No one should have to live like this - we need affordable housing now more than ever. — PolitiTweet.org

Here's everyone in @realDonaldTrump's administration with Hatch Act violation complaints: Kellyanne Conway Ivanka Trump Jared Kushner Stephanie Grisham Dan Scavino Jr. Ryan Zinke Nikki Haley Marc Short ETC There's literally not enough characters in a tweet for everyone who has. — PolitiTweet.org

Of course @realDonaldTrump and Betsy DeVos are using this pandemic as a cover to push their ideological, anti-public school agenda. We have to fight back as this administration plays politics with the education, health, and safety of our students and teachers. https://t.co/DziecJ4IVq — PolitiTweet.org

Today, yet again, @realDonaldTrump is providing handouts to industry at the expense of environmental and public health. According to him every project will receive a quick and fair decision. Unfortunately fair means silencing community input and ignoring climate change. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Once again @realDonaldTrump used the pandemic as a cover to push his anti-immigrant agenda. But he failed thanks to all of you who rose up and spoke out against this administration. The cruelty and chaos is always the point. — PolitiTweet.org

Judy Shelton is so far off the ideological spectrum that even Republicans have concerns. Her flip-flopping opinions to appease @realDonaldTrump aren't what this country needs during an economic crisis. We must #StopShelton before she throws our economy into further chaos. — PolitiTweet.org

Russia interfered with our elections, period. But @realDonaldTrump continues to obsess over conspiracy theories denying this fact to cover up his failures in addressing the three crises we're dealing with now - an economic crisis, systemic racism, and the coronavirus pandemic. https://t.co/g4l4mOnnmC — PolitiTweet.org

.@realDonaldTrump has 194 days left in office. He and his stooge in chief Bill Barr are going to use every single one of them to continue their attack on our democracy and the rule of law. America, wake up and channel your outrage. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Instead of responding to the hurricane, NOAA forecasters were forced to waste their time responding to @realDonaldTrump's tweet. This report exposes the danger of an admin that's focused on defending and justifying the President’s ill-informed pronouncements and outright lies. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

This Supreme Court – even with two of @realDonaldTrump’s hand-picked justices – held that no one is above the law. Although we likely won’t see his tax returns before Nov, we know he did everything to hide them from the American public. What are you trying to hide, Mr. President? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Science-based actions that save lives: Wear a Mask, Social Distance, Follow CDC Reopening Guidance. POTUS-based actions that threaten lives: Refuse Masks, Schedule Rallies, Demand Reckless Reopening. @realDonaldTrump needs to get out of the way and let scientists do their jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

FB’s audit proved what we all knew: Its approach to civil rights is “too reactive and piecemeal” and leaves our election “exposed to interference by the President and others.” No more talking points. No more half-measures. It’s time to step up. And, past time for FB to show up. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

It shouldn't take colleges suing this administration to stop this decision. It isn't about money or research - it's about the people. Over 1M international students come to learn from our nation's brightest. We cannot idly stand by as these students' dreams are crushed. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Thank you for your service, sir. Your retirement is a loss for this country. It's a travesty @realDonaldTrump blocked your promotion for political reasons, but promotion or not, you are an American hero. Nothing can take that away. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

We cannot forget. We cannot stop fighting for Breonna Taylor. #SayHerName — PolitiTweet.org

2000+ hate incidents and counting against Asian Americans have been reported during the pandemic. Tell me again there isn't anything wrong with @realDonaldTrump's rhetoric. — PolitiTweet.org

Tyson Foods Estimated Net Worth: $40 billion Walmart Estimated Net Worth: $514 billion But taking simple steps to protect workers and their families from COVID-19? Apparently not worth it.https://t.co/5jlUffwQhd — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

The Minneapolis PD aren't the only ones - police brutality shows up in too many departments across the country. Those who have histories? They need to be held accountable. @SenWarren, @SenatorDurbin, @RepRichmond, and I introduced a bill to do just that.https://t.co/vsNAkTkWWG — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

This Fourth of July, I continue to reflect on the ongoing protests and calls for justice in our country. As we march toward greater equality, we help our nation become a true land of liberty and freedom for all. And while you celebrate -- stay safe and mask up. — PolitiTweet.org

Families nationwide need as much help as possible to make ends meet. No one should wonder where their next meal is coming from. SNAP not only provides necessary relief, but it’s proven to boost the local economy leading to higher employment rates. Congress must #BoostSNAPNow. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Those in Hawaii aren't strangers to rising rents and a high cost of living, and COVID-19 has only made it harder to make ends meet. But @hibudgetcenter estimates that 44,000 households in HI could remain in their homes with a subsidy of only $500 a month. Just $500. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

26 million people across the country will have trouble paying rent in September. And yet Republicans thought one stimulus check of $1200 during the pandemic would be enough. What a joke. Americans need assistance, they need #RentReliefNow. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Pardon me if I don’t applaud @Facebook for finally banning “Boogaloo” groups. As @MarkWarner, @SenatorMenendez and I recently pointed out, these groups (which call for civil war) have been spreading hate and inciting violence for months. What took so long?https://t.co/uNXw9ul3qv — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

This is near and dear to the right. There's more of this to come. As Justice Sotomayor said, this decision "slights both our precedents and history" and "weakens this country's longstanding commitment to a separation of church and state." — PolitiTweet.org
