Stealing voters’ right to pick their own elected officials would threaten democracy as we know it. The Supreme Court never should have taken up this case and legitimized such a bogus theory.   Expand the Court. — PolitiTweet.org

How can we expect families to make these decisions if they don’t get all the facts? 91% of colleges understated or didn’t list a net price on their aid letters. We need to pass my bipartisan bill with @ChuckGrassley, the Understanding the True Cost of College Act, and fix this. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

How is it ethical that we ask students to shoulder the burden of student loan debt, but then let schools off the hook for hiding the real cost of attending? Answer: it’s not. Congress needs to fix this. — PolitiTweet.org

My view this morning, under the beautiful Capitol dome, as the Capitol Police and DC Metro Police received the Congressional Gold Medal to honor their service and courage on January 6th. Our democracy survived because of what they did. https://t.co/qDpO0t9Giq — PolitiTweet.org

Gay and bisexual men should be able to donate blood without any barriers based on inaccurate, antiquated stereotypes. This is an important step by the FDA. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m always trying to meet Minnesotans where they are to let them know how I'm supporting working families. So, I’ve made an Instagram! Head over to @SenatorTinaSmith on Instagram to see more (including one of my favorite photos of me and Archie👀)! https://t.co/RPanq3f2y3 https://t.co/aqJk34aD6t — PolitiTweet.org

Crypto sellers are already flagrantly disregarding consumer protection laws. We need strong consumer protections on crypto so we don’t risk Americans’ retirement savings disappearing overnight. https://t.co/LsCe0OF9Nu — PolitiTweet.org

If rail companies can rake in record-setting profits and spend billions on stock buybacks, they can give their workers paid sick leave. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

At Brooklyn’s school — like at so many other schools across the country — counselors are too short staffed to help all students get the mental health care they need. We need to support our kids and pass the Mental Health Services for Students Act. https://t.co/wWTlNuw2xN — PolitiTweet.org

Each day Leonard Peltier remains in prison is unjust. He should be granted clemency. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Senator Baldwin championed marriage equality with the Respect for Marriage Act, yet she used her time on the Senate floor to uplift the activists who fought so hard to get this done. I’m very grateful for my friend @SenatorBaldwin today. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Appalling but not surprising. Republicans will hold our entire economy hostage in their crusade against Medicare and Social Security. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again until it’s the law: everyone should have the freedom to marry the person they love. Final vote tonight – let’s do this. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

We can tackle the climate crisis and build a robust economy at the same time. Using University of Minnesota research, Niron Magnetics will use iron to build the magnets we need for clean energy. This is how it’s done. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

We’re all excited to see family this holiday season, and the best way to protect your loved ones is by getting your updated COVID-19 booster. The Biden Administration has doubled down on our efforts to expand access to vaccines. Visit https://t.co/3gIEr5VEuZ to learn more. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Today, I’m thankful to spend time with my loved ones, missing loved ones we can’t be with today, and sending out peace to all of you. Happy Thanksgiving, Minnesota. https://t.co/mzZVmm83Ie — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

While conservative groups sue to keep debt relief from millions of working families, @POTUS is doing everything he can to cut costs and give families some breathing room as they continue recovering from the pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Conservative media regurgitates NRA talking points about why we can’t ban the weapons of war used in both the Club Q and Pulse shootings. Congress needs to ban assault weapons, Republicans need to get on board. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Minnesotans are leading the clean energy economy and the Inflation Reduction Act is boosting job growth and economic opportunity while fighting the climate crisis. I met with industry leaders to highlight the tools this law is providing and how local businesses can benefit. https://t.co/mC0YaVxqfL — PolitiTweet.org

Right wing activists in black robes. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a tragic act of violence against the LGBTQ+ community. We stand with love over hate. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Progressives have built serious political power in no small part thanks to @RepJayapal’s steadfast leadership of the Progressive Caucus. We need her continued leadership as Chair of @USProgressives to keep fighting for bold policies on behalf of working families. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Just got to the Capitol to respect and protect marriage. https://t.co/jR3Ojl0kc1 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Everyone deserves affordable, high quality health care no matter where they live. On National Rural Health Day, we recognize that rural families face unique challenges accessing health care. I’ll always fight to make sure rural communities can access the care they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

No challenge was too large and no majority was too narrow for Speaker Pelosi. She broke Congress’ marble ceiling with inspiring grace, tenacity and strength. Thank you, Madam Speaker. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Our bill tells big insurance companies they have to *actually* provide access to the care they promise. You can’t list providers that don’t accept patients anymore. You can’t keep lists of outdated phone numbers. If they don’t follow the rules, they can be fined. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

I wrote a bill with @RonWyden to fix this problem. Insurance companies have a role to play in mental health care access, but ghost networks are just one example of them not doing their job. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Have you ever called a therapist’s office listed by your health plan only to find out they’re no longer covered by your plan, don’t accept new patients, or the number listed is plain wrong? These are ‘ghost networks’ and they make accessing mental health care extremely difficult. — PolitiTweet.org
