The high rates of gun violence and mass shootings that our country experiences call for a comprehensive approach to gun reform. We must enact common sense gun safety measures, especially as existing law comes under threat. (2/4)
That's why, along with 130 of my colleagues on the Gun Violence Prevention Task Force, I signed on to the amicus brief in the case before SCOTUS today. Together, we are calling for the Supreme Court to reject the challenge to New York's gun laws and protect public safety. (3/4)
In Congress, we must pass legislation that will protect our communities. (4/4) #GunLawsSaveLives

The American Rescue Plan expanded eligibility and created tax credits that lower premiums and make plans in the marketplace more affordable. We can continue to expand access to health care by passing the #BuildBackBetterAct - let's get it done. (3/3)

It's time to get it done. Let's pass the #BuildBackBetterAct. (3/3)
That means investing in programs that help individuals and families combat the economic barriers they face. @POTUS's #BuildBackBetterAct would provide significant funding for programs such as childcare and universal pre-k and paid and family and medical leave. (2/3)
It is vital to me that each and every American has the opportunity to pursue the education and job they want to create a good life for themselves and their families. In order to achieve this vision, we must create equal economic opportunity for all. (1/3)
A key part of this fight is combatting climate change, which is a major driver of crop failures. That's why we must invest in programs that decrease our use of fossil fuels - this includes programs that reduce global emissions through climate-smart agricultural practices. (3/3)
This week is Feed the Future Week. @FeedtheFuture is a U.S. Government initiative that works to address hunger, malnutrition and poverty around the globe. Now more than ever, families in the U.S. and abroad need access to clean, sustainable and nourishing food sources. (1/3)
@POTUS knows the importance of this issue. That's why the Biden Administration announced earlier this year that they are investing more than $10 billion to create sustainable food systems throughout the globe to feed our world for generations to come. (2/3)

But Senate Republicans wouldn't even allow the chamber- supposedly the world's greatest deliberative body- to begin debate on the Freedom to Vote Act. Voting is the very core of our Democracy & Democrats will do everything in our power to enshrine the sacred right to vote. (3/4)
Today the Senate is voting to try to advance the Freedom to Vote Act. This bill would expand the right to vote, regulate big money in our elections, and end partisan gerrymandering. (1/4)
