Integrity of our elections should never be partisan, it's patriotic. And the hearing today will almost certainly make that clear. If you haven't had time to read the report, watch Mueller testify today so you can learn for yourself what happened, & what we should do about it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

What disturbs me is that our elections are still vulnerable to attacks by a foreign power, yet Mitch McConnell refuses to allow reasonable, bipartisan bills to protect our elections from even being voted on the Senate floor. Why? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Here is what I think: the Mueller report painstakingly shows how Russia attacked our democracy to benefit the Trump campaign. Rather than reporting this attack to the FBI, this help was welcomed at the highest levels by Trump's team. — PolitiTweet.org

Would also like to give a special thanks to all the police who made this happen. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

A special thanks to all the first responders who helped make this bill happen. It was through their tireless efforts that this passed with overwhelming bipartisan support. https://t.co/lcWnfopJEV — PolitiTweet.org

Awesome photo. Thanks Jon for your work on getting this bill through. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

This shouldn’t be a partisan issue and frankly, it isn’t. We’ve had bipartisan support on this but Trump and the Senate GOP have blocked us every step of the way. The Russians interfered in 2016 and they could do it again. We need to be ready. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

It’s heartbreaking that Americans are still dying because they cannot afford their meds. I have a bipartisan bill that would address this and I won't stop pushing until it gets passed. Thank you to Buzzfeed for drawing attention to this pressing issue. https://t.co/JnRl2IA5TF — PolitiTweet.org

“Facebook tends to ask for forgiveness rather than permission. We’ve got this massive company—it’s big, it’s powerful, some say it’s dangerous, & now, basically what they’re talking about, is creating their own currency.” Told @cheddar I've got many Qs about FB's currency.

July is on track to be the hottest month EVER RECORDED ON EARTH. Last month was the hottest June on record. We have no choice but to #ActOnClimate. I’m a part of @SenDemsClimate to do just that and I gave @AliVelshi a recap of our first hearing: https://t.co/FBLKbrmYjC — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

No one working a full-time job should have to live in poverty. Glad the House voted to #RaiseTheWage for the first time in nearly a decade to $15—something I proudly support. https://t.co/q1Sjfob68L — PolitiTweet.org

"I had always heard that Mitch McConnell was a master legislator and a true loyalist to this institution. But in the 18 months I've been in the Senate, what I've seen is an astonishingly limited vision for what the Senate can and should accomplish." https://t.co/soRbuj6WuE — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Seriously? We can’t even move a bill forward to help firefighters & first responders w 9/11-related medical problems? These brave people risked their lives for our country. The least we can do is help them w their battles against cancer & other illnesses.https://t.co/b1cwEETUvF — PolitiTweet.org

Hope you watch Saint Paul @MayorCarter_ and me talk about why we need to work together to tackle climate change. It’s going to take all of us working together for America to lead on this. https://t.co/AGf4zGU9d8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Climate change threatens to reduce the size of the U.S. economy up to 10% by the end of this century, a loss of 100s of billions of dollars/year. We can’t wait to #ActOnClimate. Looking forward to discussing today's @SenDemsClimate hearing with @MSNBC’s @AliVelshi at 3:50 pm ET. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

Thanks Tom. I believe the best ideas often come from people closest to the work, so I’m grateful to social workers & health care providers who’ve shared how they're improving mental health for young ppl. This input will help guide work to boost access to mental health in schools. — PolitiTweet.org

Minnesota's the top 🦃 producer but did you know it's also a top producer of 🐄🐖🌽🌾? And on #WorldEmojiDay I have a few new emoji recs: sugarbeets and soybeans. Oh, and one for the great state of Minnesota. I'd use that a lot. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

It's going to take states and federal gov't working together for America to lead on tackling climate change. Kicking off @SenDemsClimate by hearing from mayors like St. Paul's own @MayorCarter_ shows that we're serious about this work. Watch live 1 PM ET: https://t.co/8EV0B00lWE — PolitiTweet.org

Who will govern Libra, Facebook’s proposed digital currency? FB says 100 people will. Well, the Senate also has 100 members but it’s clear that 1 person's in charge. Mitch McConnell. And his tenure shows the importance of that agenda-setting power. Today I pressed for more info. https://t.co/tbsiKRHXSG — PolitiTweet.org

🚨🚨🚨 The Trump Admin's effort to make it harder for millions of women to access quality health care has gone into effect. Women don't need the govt in exam rooms, interfering with their personal decisions. I TRUST WOMEN & will keep standing up for their freedom. #ProtectX — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith

LIVE: We’re examining Facebook’s proposed digital currency, Libra, as well as data privacy and regulatory issues in the Senate Banking Committee, of which I’m a member. This is an important hearing and I encourage you to watch. — PolitiTweet.org
