This is a big change in policy and I've been pushing it for months. Testing should be free for all Americans. I’m going to keep working to make sure that everyone can get access to tests as quickly and as smoothly as possible. — PolitiTweet.org

This is excellent news. The American Rescue Plan is working. https://t.co/MIvdbd3kgm — PolitiTweet.org

She was a trailblazer, a strong labor leader who kept her members front and center every day, and never let the rest of us forget them either. I’m a better leader thanks to her friendship and example. May her memory be a blessing to all who knew and loved her. — PolitiTweet.org

Very sad to hear about the passing of Shar Knutson. Shar and I became friends when I started out as Governor Dayton’s Chief of Staff in 2010. She invited me out for a glass of wine, and from that day forward I counted her as a friend and ally. — PolitiTweet.org

No More Mr. Ice Guy is the best but will fully admit it is d-icey to pick a favorite. — PolitiTweet.org

Today I spoke with @Bloomberg to debunk some GOP claims about President Biden’s well-qualified nominees to the Federal Reserve Board. https://t.co/hu1WHnYwuK — PolitiTweet.org

This is what it looks like to lose our rights, state by state. The Supreme Court is supposed to stop this, not unleash it. https://t.co/Ra0hiGB9ki — PolitiTweet.org

I experienced depression when I was younger. And I share my story because I know other people are suffering from mental health challenges. We need to end the stigma and get mental health care to people where they’re at—and it should start in our schools. https://t.co/HteRRI76H2 — PolitiTweet.org

Happy #LunarNewYear to all who celebrate! Wishing you and your loved ones a healthy and prosperous Year of the Tiger. — PolitiTweet.org

Morgan Freeman says “Black history is American history.” As we mark today as the start of Black History Month, I am thinking of the immense contributions that Black Americans have made to our country. That is worth celebrating not only this month, but all year round. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

We need to be honest about what’s going on here. I refuse to stand by idly in the midst of Republicans’ disgraceful treatment of Sarah Bloom Raskin, Lisa Cook, Philip Jefferson and other smart, qualified women and people of color nominated by the Biden Administration. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Republicans would have you believe differently, ignoring these nominees’ clear qualifications. Instead they are again using the ugly GOP playbook that undermines women and people of color with partisan attacks that have little to do with their fitness for the job. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Sarah Bloom Raskin, Lisa Cook, and Philip Jefferson are highly qualified and dedicated public servants. Their experience, expertise, and perspective are much needed at the Federal Reserve as our nation navigates complicated economic times. — PolitiTweet.org

Saying a prayer for my friend @SenatorLujan as we all wish for a speedy recovery. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm continuing to monitor the situation on the ground in Richfield as reports come in of one death and one wounded in a school shooting. My heart goes out to the victims and their families. — PolitiTweet.org

In Minnesota, heating bills add up fast. If you or someone you know needs assistance to keep the heat on, there’s a program called LIHEAP that can help. It’s already helped over 63k Minnesotans stay warm this winter. https://t.co/lAo3g5kj23 — PolitiTweet.org

Crushing student loans are holding back millions, which is why the Biden Administration should act now. Cancelling $50k in federal student loan debt would give 36 million Americans permanent relief and aid millions more. #CancelStudentDebt — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago, Biden reversed a rule that stopped the US from giving money to any international organization that advocated for abortion. That was incredible news: but rules aren’t laws. Congress can make this repeal permanent. Let's finally repeal the Global Gag Rule. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

These numbers are no joke. There are huge economic gains here and it’s because the American Rescue Plan is working. We are delivering more jobs for Americans and I'm working in the Senate to pass legislation that keeps up the momentum. https://t.co/mMNMC1tfrI — PolitiTweet.org

But let me be clear, confirming this justice won’t fix our deeply broken Court. We need structural reform and court expansion to restore balance to the U.S. Supreme Court and ensure it protects the rights and liberties of all Americans – not just far-right special interests. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

I’m looking forward to reviewing President Biden’s nomination, participating in a fair confirmation process, and filling Justice Breyer’s seat with the first Black female justice. Justice Breyer’s work has shaped our country for generations and I’m grateful for his service. — PolitiTweet.org

COVID booster shots can help extend protection and keep it at a higher level—and they're recommended for Minnesotans ages 12 and older. If you're fully vaccinated and eligible, get boosted. — PolitiTweet.org

This is subject to ongoing litigation, but yesterday's decision represents a clear commitment on the part of the Biden administration to make sure we follow the law. — PolitiTweet.org

We support mining in Minnesota, but the Boundary Waters is an irreplaceable resource that we have an obligation to protect. Minerals like copper and nickel are crucial to the clean energy transition, but that does not mean copper-nickel mining is appropriate everywhere. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

The Biden administration has made a persuasive case that the Trump administration improperly extended Twin Metal's leases, and I support the decision to cancel them. — PolitiTweet.org
