.@DeptVetAffiars and @TheJusticeDept did the right thing by stepping up to ensure veterans can get abortion care in certain instances, even in states that have abortion bans. Veterans fought for our nation and I’ll keep fighting to protect their rights. https://t.co/YVXDfJmn2Z
Advanced energy storage technologies like those being studied at @UMich’s Battery Lab can help Hawaii get more electric vehicles on the road and reduce our reliance on oil-based electricity. I'll continue supporting efforts that create an abundance of affordable, clean energy. https://t.co/jxxQpFzuPw
It's exciting to see @usmint 's commemorative quarter design for Edith Kanaka`ole. She gave so much to Hawaii and it's fitting that she be honored with this special recognition. I'm looking forward to seeing these quarters put into circulation next year. https://t.co/D6a2EKjhhX
@SBAgov First, we visited the Small Business Association office in Honolulu to talk with members of the Native Hawaiian Organizations Association. Native Hawaiian businesses are essential to our community and I'll continue working to support them. https://t.co/i2zppAcOA0

Judge Jackson is exactly the kind of judge and individual we need on the U.S. Supreme Court. The Court will be better-off with the addition of her experience, evenhandedness, integrity, and humanity.

Today, I urged @SecDef and his team to focus their attention on meeting the military’s strategic fuel reserve needs through options that do not depend on Red Hill being operational. Take a look: https://t.co/fLXVfDSmPc

How can Republicans celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth while trying to prevent Black people from voting and erasing our country’s history of slavery and racial oppression from our schools?

1 year ago a mob of domestic terrorists attempted to delegitimize our election process; shaking our country to its very core We cannot lose sight that this was just one part part of a premeditated & ongoing all-out assault on our free and fair elections https://t.co/8q06dIRIRu

We have seen with our own eyes the rise in hate crimes during the pandemic. I asked AG Garland for an update on the DOJ’s implementation of the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act and our efforts to reduce hate crimes and hate incidents. https://t.co/OrVlup2lWb
It’s #InternationalPronounsDay. Acknowledging someone’s name and pronouns is a matter of respect for human dignity. Sharing and asking for pronouns goes a long way to make people feel safe and supported. My pronouns are she/her. What are yours?
If Roe v Wade were to be overturned, 24 states are at the ready to ban abortion entirely at the call of the Supreme Court’s far-right majority. We must take action to defend that constitutionally-protected right. The Senate must pass the #WHPA and #ActForAbortionAccess. QT @JudiciaryDems: Reproductive health is under attack. In 2021 alone, 500+ state-level restrictions on abortion have been introduced.… https://t.co/w3YDQRt77s)
It’s clear to me there was an abuse of power by the Trump administration. Former Attorney Generals Bill Barr and Jeff Sessions should testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee as part of their sense of responsibility to the positions they held and to our country.

None of this would be possible without advocates like @RepCardenas @brianschatz and community leaders like @weareoceania @aapcho @apiahf who fought to right this historic wrong. This is a “shining moment” at a time of darkness for our country. Let's savor it.

Mahalo Paula for bravely sharing your story this weekend. No one's lived experience with hunger or homelessness is something to joke about.

I've warned about SCOTUS justices signaling their agenda for years, but Justice Alito went even further last night in outlining his partisan, ideological agenda for the Court. With a 6-3 conservative Court majority, our hard-won rights are at risk. Don't stay silent. Fight back.

30 million Americans didn't have health coverage last year—a direct result of Republican's sabotage. And now they want a Supreme Court nominee that will take away coverage from 20 million more? We're fighting to #SaveOurHealthCare. Learn more here: https://t.co/1Ta5NYn2PH.
On #NationalCoffeeDay I want to recognize all of the hand working coffee growers in Hawaii that supply high quality coffee to consumers across the globe. These growers, like so many others, have suffered due to COVID-19 and are finally able to get some relief from USDA’s CFAP-2.
Nothing phases Bill Barr as he spews his pro-Trump nonsense – not the truth, not the rule of law, and not the lives of American people during this pandemic.
General Tata’s record of blatant racism and maliciously spreading conspiracy theories make him unfit to serve as DoD’s #3 civilian. While his nomination is par for the course for @realDonaldTrump, he does not represent today’s military values and culture. https://t.co/SQUsrzrTkI
Judy Shelton is so far off the ideological spectrum that even Republicans have concerns. Her flip-flopping opinions to appease@realDonaldTrump aren't what this country needs during an economic crisis. We must #StopShelton before she throws our economy into further chaos.

Hey Mr. Attorney General, ever heard of the rule of law? Out the window in Barr and @realDonaldTrump’s America.
