Last year, more than 70,000 Americans lost their lives to drug overdoses. This #RecoveryMonth, I’m standing with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to spread awareness & recommit to help our loved ones find and follow the path of recovery. https://t.co/EECwEX0L5c

@BeschlossDC And thanks to @DougJones, those two white supremacists were prosecuted and put in jail. At the very least, Carole, Cynthia, Addie Mae and Denise saw justice.
I told my mom I’d make it on a Wheaties Box one day. Proud to show her that dream come true thanks to this great honor, @scicoalition’s 2020 #ChampionofScience award! I will always fight to ensure science drives our politics and not the other way around. https://t.co/fbOGRJR4vQ

If your only reason for ending the $600/week lifeline for unemployed workers is fear that people won’t go back to work, good news! Evidence says otherwise. Also the benefit has saved millions of jobs & helped prevent economic collapse.

Trump’s corporate payroll tax cut would give wealthy corporations like Walmart, AT&T, and Exxon Mobil billions of dollars in tax breaks. And critically, it wouldn’t do a thing for the millions of workers who have lost their jobs in Trump’s recession.
Politicizing science & benching our public health experts has led to countless deaths during this pandemic. Putting key data in the hands of partisan political leaders & keeping CDC & the public at arm’s length weakens our pandemic response at the worst moment yet in this crisis.

We have seen too many lives taken and communities devastated by police brutality and racial profiling. Action is long overdue.
