The federal government has a responsibility to ensure public housing is safe for all residents. This week I chaired a hearing on fire safety and home health risks. We need to prevent tragedies like the 2019 Cedar High Apartments fire from ever happening again. — PolitiTweet.org

Reminder: what we voted on today was whether we should have begun debate on an infrastructure bill, not the bill itself. Every Republican voted against it. Roads, bridges and airports across the country need to be fixed, we should start the process to make it happen. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m getting really tired of having to be the @RandPaul Cleanup Crew. Once again, he spews false information and I have to give Dr. Fauci the chance to clean it up. https://t.co/QGJBIWwOT1 — PolitiTweet.org

Look, I'm not just a Senator. I'm also a grandmother, and our generation owes future generations a planet that's safe to live on. This summer, Congress must get behind a clean electricity standard and pass it into law. I'm going to keep working to make sure we do. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

The key is important groups have supported clean electricity standards. Utility companies like how they lowers costs (clean energy is not just clean—it's cheap); labor unions like the jobs created; and environmental groups want to combat climate change with bold legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

It’s simple: we set a goal to get to 100% clean electricity (net zero carbon pollution) as soon as possible. And then we help power generators - from the big utilities to your local coop - make the shift to clean power. Sounds great! But can it pass? It can! Here's why: — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Most Americans already support what we need to do—move to a clean energy future—and fast. The best, most effective way to do this is to invest in a clean electricity standard. How does that work? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Climate change isn't some pie-in-the-sky problem we can deal with later; it's happening right now. So I've been working on a way we can take real action to combat climate change. I'm confident it can pass the Senate and it’s in the budget deal. I want to tell you about it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

We need to take bold action to protect voting rights by passing the #ForThePeopleAct. Thank you, @SenAmyKlobuchar for standing up for the voting rights of all Americans today at your hearing in Georgia. https://t.co/eIFNZQEs82 — PolitiTweet.org

In 2019, a fire broke out in a public housing high rise in Minneapolis that wasn’t fully equipped with fire sprinklers. Five Minnesotans lost their lives. Tomorrow, I’m going to be leading a hearing with housing authorities to make sure a similar tragedy never happens again. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Looking forward to it, @chrislhayes! — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s a paper showing some of the ways that this can pass through the reconciliation rules. There are many options available to get this done. https://t.co/sGDQwLsh3d — PolitiTweet.org

Can a Clean Electricity Standard pass the Senate through reconciliation? The answer is yes. — PolitiTweet.org

Starting today, monthly #ChildTaxCredit payments will begin going out to millions of American families. Via the Child Tax Credit, the American Rescue Plan is delivering one of the most significant actions to reduce child poverty ever. https://t.co/v89POL6jE0 — PolitiTweet.org

Minnesota is coming back stronger than ever. Small businesses make up the backbone of our economy and the recovery after a tough year looks promising. I will continue working to make sure small businesses are supported at the federal level. https://t.co/R2BN3r57Yb — PolitiTweet.org

We need to tackle climate change and the housing crisis in this country and time is running out. That should happen in an additional package that must go hand in hand with the first. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden’s bipartisan infrastructure framework would be the largest investment in infrastructure we’ve seen in our country in about one hundred years. So yes, of course I support it. But that can't be the end of the story. — PolitiTweet.org
