For far too long, the @TheJusticeDept has been too lax in investigating and prosecuting those pharmaceutical companies and corrupt doctors who helped created the national #OpioidCrisis. This is welcome news, and the DOJ should continue to aggressively prosecute those responsible.https://twitter.com/nprpolitics/status/1118536344693878785 …

Agreed. Democrats, especially those running and/or looking to run in 2020, should actually get down to work on protecting our democratic institutions and preventing executive abuses of power instead of just going on cable TV to talk about it.

The 2020 Presidential election is the Democrat's to lose. There is a false belief that Trump's unpopularity will allow the dems to nominate the most progressive candidate they want. THIS IS FALSE.

#CesarChavezDay is a reminder of the power of organizing and how one individual can lead to the improvement of an entire community. Today, we celebrate a great activist and organizer who championed the cause of farmworkers.

Paper ballots are the smartest, safest way to ensure your vote is secure against attacks by foreign actors. Russia can’t hack a piece of paper like they can a computer. We introduced the Secure Elections Act to ensure our elections are safeguarded. We must be ready.

Republicans... Love the fetus Hate children Love the military Hate veterans Love tax cuts for the super rich Hate it for the middle class Love the poorly educated Hate education Love healthcare for themselves Hate it for Americans Love treason Hate blowjobs

@realDonaldTrump has said this before, but the only plan he has been able to come up with that is "far better than ObamaCare" involves virtually defunding the program and throwing tens of millions of Americans onto the streets without healthcare insurance. Not a great plan.

From what I've seen, @PeteButtigieg is the most authentic of the Democratic candidates for President. He is open and transparent about his values, and also about his those values influence his policy positions. #Pete2020

On #TransDayOfVisibility, I would like to bring attention to the Trump administration's order banning transgender men and women from military service. This order was bigoted and anti-American. Any man or woman who wants to serve their country is a patriot.

This is a catastrophic foreign policy mistake. It will be harder for our government to collaborate with these nations, it will be harder for our companies to do business with them, and at the end of the day, it’ll lead to even more refugees at our southern border.https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1112063322629775360 …

I am ready to accept and support the findings of the #MuellerReport, but questions and controversy will linger as long as the DOJ and White House continue to hide the full document from public eyes. #ReleaseTheFullMuellerReporthttps://twitter.com/thehill/status/1110293322210385921 …

Attorney General Barr must make the #Mueller report public and provide all underlying documents to Congress without delay. Transparency is the foundation of our democracy. The American people have a right to know the truth.

Robert Mueller has officially released his report on Russian collusion with the Trump Campaign in 2016. For the sake of restoring public trust in our democratic institutions and the government, the full #MuellerReport should be made public.

@realDonaldTrump, you do not deserve the privilege of serving as President, much less a "thank you", for doing the minimal work to honor a fallen hero and patriot of this nation and then demeaning him with your bully pulpit.

Agreed. So why don't you do the honorable thing and speak out against @realDonaldTrump when he uses his office to attack and demean true American heroes?

1/8: I've been asked by a number of people in the past day to make a comment on the controversial comments made by @TuckerCarlson concerning women in general and the Iraqi people specifically. Here's what I think:

The #BorderWall is an ineffective, ideological, wasteful solution to a complex problem. Putting up slabs of steel will do nothing to deter the vast majority of illegal immigration or drug trafficking while detracting from investments in better technology and monitoring.

A perversion of religion. Regardless of your religious affiliations, you should all be concerned by the religious cult-like devotion of @realDonaldTrump. There are very good reasons why the state, in all its forms, must be kept separate from the practices of religion.https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1104111306347593729 …
