Earlier this week @realDonaldTrump’s administration issued a sweeping asylum ban. Now they’re trying to end refugee admissions. The President wants to slam the door on people fleeing persecution & put them back in danger. This is cruel, unnecessary, & un-American. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

I’m very glad that @TheNationsFirst & our state leaders will continue to allow transgender Americans to serve in the MA National Guard. Our Commonwealth is safer when we allow everyone who can handle the job to serve. https://t.co/7uXJKFA2m4 — PolitiTweet.org

We must end the worst abuses of private equity that kill jobs, hurt workers, & drain our economy. The #StopWallStreetLooting Act is a bold new plan to fundamentally change the industry. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Our new #StopWallStreetLooting Act would: ✔️Put private investment funds on the hook for their companies' debt & liabilities ✔️End corporate looting through excessive fees & dividends ✔️Protects workers' jobs & severance ✔️Safeguard the markets from risky corporate debt — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

When companies like Sears fail, workers lose everything. But the private equity & investment funds? They collect huge fees & move on to the next big deal. It’s time to #StopWallStreetLooting to protect workers & hold private equity accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

It’s not just stores at the mall that suffer from Wall Street looting. Private equity has ruined newspapers, manufactured housing, grocery stores, & even nursing homes in MA & across the country. https://t.co/dSMmjgnglA — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

@SenatorBaldwin @SenSherrodBrown @repmarkpocan @RepJayapal When I was a kid, my mom’s job at Sears saved our family. But that Sears doesn’t exist today. Neither does Payless, Shopko, or Gymboree. That’s because private equity & investment funds bought them, stripped them for parts, & drove them into the ground. #StopWallStreetLooting — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Private equity firms want you to believe you’re not smart enough to understand their business model. But it's pretty simple: take over companies & loot 'em. And I’ve got a bill with @SenatorBaldwin, @SenSherrodBrown, @RepMarkPocan & @RepJayapal to fix it. #StopWallStreetLooting https://t.co/wbz16jKpTG — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Food insecurity is a real, structural problem that’s another barrier between low-income students & the chance to finally get a college education. The College Student Hunger Act will tackle this problem head-on. We can fix this. #RealCollege — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

My College Student Hunger Act with @RepAlLawsonJr would: ❌ Expand access to SNAP for more low-income students ❌ Increase outreach to eligible students ❌ Require @usedgov & @USDA to connect eligible students with SNAP — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

As more & more students struggle to pay for college, 30% may be going hungry. Students shouldn’t have to choose between paying tuition & eating. That’s why I’ve got a bill to ensure college students can succeed without going hungry. #RealCollege https://t.co/1OfhcbcVnm — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

I have a bill for that. Congress should pass my #CAREAct with @RepCummings to provide cities, counties, states, territories, & tribal governments with the comprehensive funding they need to fight the opioid epidemic. We can do this right now. https://t.co/r6q4I8S3eu — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Great news: @FSCDems passed my Climate Risk Disclosure Act with @RepCasten yesterday. We’re one step closer to requiring public companies to disclose their climate-related risks and speeding up the transition to a green economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Let’s be very clear: @realDonaldTrump’s tweets were racist. Persist, @SpeakerPelosi. Persist. #shepersisted — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

The American people deserve to know that the @DeptofDefense Secretary will make decisions in our country’s best security interests, not in @Raytheon’s or his own financial interests. If @EsperDoD won’t commit to address his conflicts, he should not be confirmed. https://t.co/J7hQTCBQBO — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Last week, I met with @EsperDoD & asked him to extend his @Raytheon recusal through the duration of his tenure at the @DeptofDefense. He refused. I’m troubled by Esper’s unwillingness to fully address his conflicts of interest & urge him to reconsider. https://t.co/POZX4Qx9TQ — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Mark @EsperDoD ran @Raytheon’s lobbying shop for 7 years. In fact, he’s still waiting on a million-dollar payout from them after 2022. I have serious ethical concerns about his @DeptofDefense Secretary nomination. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

My bill to #EndCorruptionNow would shut the revolving door between the government & big business, including @CommerceGov & the steel industry. It’s long past time to root out corruption in every corner of our government & make it work for the people. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

.@CommerceGov's process for exempting companies from Trump’s steel & aluminum tariffs appears to be arbitrary, opaque, & subject to favoritism. It’s run by 2 former industry insiders. I want more info on this potentially serious conflict of interest. https://t.co/OAd2NlAKnJ — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Fed Chair Jerome Powell is right: the opioid epidemic is a “national crisis.” That’s why @RepCummings & I have the most ambitious legislation in Congress to put an end to it. #CAREact https://t.co/LE19yAAGf4 — PolitiTweet.org

Facebook made $5 billion in profits in just the first three months of last year. The company is too big to oversee, and this drop-in-the-bucket penalty confirms that. The FTC should break Facebook up, plain and simple. Enough is enough. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Let’s be honest: this settlement is a victory for Facebook. Just look to the markets. In the first 15 minutes after the settlement was reported, Facebook’s market value went up by more than $5 billion. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

The FTC just voted to let Facebook off easy with a $5 billion settlement for compromising the data of tens of millions of Americans and allowing our elections to be improperly influenced. https://t.co/N11V0yqchO — PolitiTweet.org

Private, for-profit prisons are rife with safety, health, and human rights concerns. We should abolish them altogether. — PolitiTweet.org
