Reminder: Legislation to restore the Voting Rights Act is collecting dust on @senatemajldr's desk. It's been 7 years since the Shelby County decision and now states across the country are facing voter suppression more than ever. The people must be heard. We must pass HR 4. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

As #COVID19 moves across the country, our state and local governments need our help. Congress must help our communities maintain critical services they need to safely reopen. I said it in April, and I'll say it again now - we need to #FundtheFrontLines. https://t.co/vhPcA6D6Bf — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Notice the correlation between @realDonaldTrump's sinking poll numbers and his resorting to racism to gin up his base? He can try to fill a room with the few young people who clap along with his racism, but millions more are in the streets fighting against Trump every day. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

This decision is exactly why @realDonaldTrump nominated Neomi Rao to the DC Circuit. Instead of standing up for the rule of law, Judge Rao is utterly complicit in the corruption and collusion between Flynn and Barr's DOJ. Disgraceful. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

“I had been discriminated against & was living as a second-class citizen. All of that, emotionally, came to mind." Genora Dancel sued for the right to marry 30 years ago. But the fight for LGBTQ+ rights continues today — that's why we need to pass the #EqualityAct. https://t.co/jiVIPrNNhz — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Lawrence Van Dyke claimed same sex marriage hurt society. Steven Menashi argued businesses could discriminate against LGBTQ+ people. And Cory Wilson? He voted for "the worst anti-LGBTQ+ state law in the US." We need judges that uphold the rule of law and protect all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

When you see the pattern of corrupt behavior by @realDonaldTrump and people close to him like AG Barr, it’s clear it’s all in the service of re-electing Donald Trump. Firing Geoffrey Berman, spreading lies about mail-in ballots - the President is more unhinged than ever before. https://t.co/pfeNRundvS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

In investigating Giuliani, Geoff Berman was doing his job – it's precisely why Bill Barr is trying to fire him. Only draws more attention to Barr and @realDonaldTrump's corruption. Yet another assault on the rule of law and the independence of @TheJusticeDept. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

This moment of reckoning will not be smooth or fast, but there is a growing undercurrent and a thirst for change in our country. Making #Juneteenth a national holiday is a part of the reckoning, but more must be done in our joint fight against white supremacy and systemic racism. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Justin Walker is an ardent advocate and defender of “Brett Kavanaugh's America” – which would discriminate against LGBTQIA+ and deport Dreamers. Instead of addressing COVID19 or policing reform, @SenMajLdr rammed through his protege's nom for a seat that isn't open until Sept. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

But, @realDonaldTrump has already called the SCOTUS decision "horrible," and nothing stops him from trying to end DACA again. We need a permanent fix to protect Dreamers from this racist, anti-immigrant administration. The Senate must take up and pass the Dream and Promise Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Today, I join the thousands of Dreamers, including those from HI, celebrating their hard won victory at the Supreme Court. I will never forget how these inspiring young people flooded the halls of Congress, refused to be ignored, and galvanized the country behind their stories. — PolitiTweet.org

We are at a pivotal moment that calls for more than just nibbling around the edges of policing reform. The Justice in Policing Act is the first step in changes that we must make to ensure police accountability and the safety of all Americans. https://t.co/YS3SsIrQx6 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

In showing Pride and proclaiming that Black Lives Matter at our embassy in Seoul, my friend Harry Harris sent a clear and unambiguous message about the values our country should stand for. If only we had a President or a Sec. of State with @USAmbROK's compassion and integrity. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

8 years ago, DACA was created to protect thousands of young Americans. More than 200,000 are now working on the front lines of the pandemic. But @realDonaldTrump put their lives in jeopardy. As we wait for the Supreme Court, we must continue fighting for those whose #HomeIsHere. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Earlier this month, peaceful protesters gathered in Lafayette Square were met with tear gas, rubber bullets, pepper balls, and batons. All of this was seemingly directed by AG Barr just for @realDonaldTrump's photo-op. The American people deserve to know why. https://t.co/LndMRDVVwq — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono

Today marks a historic victory for the fight towards equality in this country. No one should be discriminated against for who they are or who they love. Thank you to everyone who has been fighting in the trenches for LGBTQ rights for decades. Happy #Pride — PolitiTweet.org
