From Gloucester to New Bedford, our hardworking fishermen in MA have been devastated by this outbreak. @SenMarkey & I fought hard for relief money for our fishermen & we’ll keep fighting so it reaches them quickly & fairly to help them weather this crisis. https://t.co/tk8E0MOMwl — PolitiTweet.org

I still believe that in our darkest hours, at our lowest points, government can be a powerful force for good. But only when it works for the people. https://t.co/FlVDZiKWHc — PolitiTweet.org

The next package Congress passes can’t nibble around the edges. Hospitals, workers, small businesses, & families need a lot more help & a lot faster. Voters, taxpayers, & consumers need real protections. Read more about my priorities in my @nytimes op-ed. https://t.co/UOQOIkdmUX — PolitiTweet.org

Zoom helps many Americans stay connected during this crisis. But after multiple breaches in MA schools, @SenMarkey & I are worried about their privacy & data security, especially for kids. We need to know more about how @zoom_us is protecting students. https://t.co/jZl5RVIMho — PolitiTweet.org

In the midst of COVID-19, the Trump admin is reportedly making time to try & trash a multilateral arms control treaty, despite our allies' objections. Make no mistake: withdrawing from the Open Skies Treaty & further abandoning our global commitments makes Americans less safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

For-profit colleges already suck down enough taxpayer dollars to load students up with debt for useless degrees. If one penny of federal relief money goes to these companies, it should be aid for students – not to boost profits for executives & investors. https://t.co/gyOLcyMSoS — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

I repeat: @EPA should be doing everything possible to keep our air & water clean. But Trump & former coal lobbyist @EPAAWheeler are doing exactly the opposite by letting polluters off the hook. This is unacceptable & puts our communities' safety at risk. https://t.co/H4pv3BdaxL — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

I'm glad that Massachusetts is stepping up to track racial data on coronavirus testing. And @CDCgov released some initial data today. I'll keep pushing until we have comprehensive nationwide data to ensure that communities of color have equal access to free testing & treatment. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

With the exception of firing a score of IGs and replacing them with handpicked toadies, there’s little Trump can do to prevent PRAC from doing its pandemic oversight work. They have my full support to begin using this vast authority to address the administration’s problems. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

The Pandemic Accountability Committee’s oversight should focus on the federal govt’s inadequate public health response, & the mismanagement of the economic catastrophe that followed. All these failures have been exacerbated by this administration’s politicization & corruption. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Trump’s decision to fire @DoD_IG Glenn Fine is an unconscionable effort to avoid accountability for his failed, corruption-tainted pandemic response. But Trump doesn't control the independent oversight committee Fine chaired. PRAC can & should get to work. https://t.co/4DKsmGNZdl — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

This should be the rule for every Senator, Member of Congress, President, Cabinet Secretary, federal judge, & other senior officials. It’s a no-brainer most people assume is already the law. And under my anti-corruption bill, it would be. #EndCorruptionNow https://t.co/HN0n9gNJ0L — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Reagan was wrong: "I’m from the government & I’m here to help" aren't the most terrifying words in the English language. "We're in a crisis & the government has no plan" are. Government can save lives & rescue our economy. Congress should end its recess and get to work now. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Finally, if Americans are forced to choose between voting this November or staying safe from the virus, our democracy will be lost. Adopting, enforcing, and funding mandatory reforms to make sure everyone can vote safely is not optional. https://t.co/Vzb42seNnQ — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Congress must pass stronger rules on relief money so taxpayer dollars go to workers, states, municipalities & tribal governments first – not corporations who don't need it. That includes strong conflict-of-interest rules, bans on lobbying & political spending, & real oversight. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

To protect struggling families, we need new federal price gouging laws and strict enforcement. To protect small businesses now & during recovery, we need to hit pause on exploitive corporate takeovers & private equity activity that guts Main Street while the rich get richer. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Sustaining our economy also means taking steps to keep workers on payroll even if they need to stay home. Congress has already provided payroll support grants to the airlines. As big businesses seek federal help, we must condition funding on companies keeping workers employed. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Frontline workers are putting their lives on the line to keep America functioning. Congress must embrace an Essential Workers Bill of Rights including paid leave, guaranteed safety protections, hazard pay, & protected collective bargaining rights for essential workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

We must extend economic relief to families beyond cash payments. That means suspending consumer debt collection, a universal moratorium on evictions & foreclosures, no utility shut-offs, student debt cancellation, keeping child care providers afloat, & boosting Social Security. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Containing the health crisis must be our top priority. I've outlined steps to rapidly boost testing, and we also need to stand up public manufacturing options of tests, drugs, & medical equipment & provide free health care for those who don't have it. https://t.co/ZbtQEUbeSY — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Congress has passed three coronavirus packages – but with more than 12,000 dead and 10 million out of work, the scale of this tragedy demands we do much more, much faster to save lives and our economy. Here is what Congress must do in the next package: https://t.co/UOQOIkdmUX — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Congress, @USTreasury, & @SBAgov must speak with one voice to tell small businesses that if they’re eligible they’ll get assistance, period. Tell people we won’t let PPP run out of money and we will fully fund all applications – immediately & until this crisis ends. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

If anyone has any doubts about what needs to be done, just ask some small business owners. Millions of them have been put through hell over the past two weeks as they scrambled to try to get access to the money they desperately need. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Congress also needs to dramatically simplify PPP so it actually works. Replace loans with grants to keep people on payroll, ensure that banks provide equal access to all borrowers – and do it NOW. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

And funding isn’t the only problem. Everyone except Trump knows the launch of the small business program – PPP – was a fiasco. Regulations were late, systems crashed, and people couldn’t do loan applications. @SBAgov & @USTreasury need to fix it. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Small business owners are panicked that there isn’t enough money to go around. Raising the cap is a start – but it won’t be enough. Every small business that qualifies should get the help they need, period. We should provide an absolute guarantee. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Small businesses across America are facing collapse. But the program Congress created to help them stay afloat & keep workers on payroll has too little money and too much confusion. We need a new law to fix the program and eliminate the cap on total relief – immediately. — PolitiTweet.org
