Ahead of #Thanksgiving, it's important to give back to your own community by volunteering just a few hours to those who may need it -- whether at a soup kitchen or in some other way. You can find local service opportunities yourself, too! https://t.co/qLQUXYOhDJ
We’re letting a toxic mix of bigotry and bipartisanship keep those who’ve sacrificed for this country from seeing their families or receiving the care they deserve. Read more on my visit with our deported Veterans and how we can fight for them here: https://t.co/vEdaNu4nOk

Deeply disturbed by reports this morning of a shooting at a California high school. My thoughts are with all those in the Santa Clarita community. If you're in the area, please follow guidance from local law enforcement and stay safe.
Thank you to Ranking Member @SenatorManchin, Chairwoman @SenMurkowski and the @EnergyDems Subcommittee on Energy for holding a hearing on my Energy Jobs for Our Heroes Act, which would help prepare our highly-skilled Veterans for good-paying careers in the clean energy industry.
I’m glad to work with @SenatorRish on a bipartisan bill that would help enforce existing law designed to enable small businesses across the country better access contracting opportunities with the federal government.
20-30% of gay and transgender people battle a substance abuse disorder. Too often LGBTQ+ people face bias when seeking healthcare and in their daily lives. Kudos to Out in Recovery for being the Midwest's first LGBTQ-only addiction treatment program & supporting those in need. QT @RecoverGateway: “It’s a proud moment for the organization." We're still celebrating our newest program's opening this past Friday.… https://t.co/8FH2e8HqKC)
Pilots know tragedies don’t occur in a vacuum. Catastrophic outcomes like the tragic 737 MAX crashes happen because of a long succession of failures. Yet, @Boeing has not told the whole truth–not to the committee, to the families of lost loved ones or to the pilots.
Children of Americans serving their nation abroad are just as worthy of automatic citizenship as any other children. That’s why I’m working with @SenatorIsakson on a bipartisan bill to make sure these children automatically acquire citizenship. https://t.co/7d52MLOk6s
ICYMI: I was on @allinwithchris to discuss Trump’s disastrous decision to abandon our Kurdish allies in northern Syria. Watch here: https://t.co/drWsBTzcmL
@HUDgov My earlier tweet is inaccurate. I should have said they had *tried* to do these four things, which is true. The language in the earlier tweet should have said “have sought to worsen our nation's homelessness crisis.” They have not yet succeeded, despite repeated efforts.
Marca reached out to me during my first few months home after Walter Reed, and she has been a friend and councilor—especially on disability issues—ever since.

Jon Stewart is right: the Senate should pass the Never Forget the Heroes Act ASAP. I was proud to help @SenGillibrand introduce this bill & I would vote to pass it today, tomorrow, whenever … IF Majority Leader McConnell would just let us vote on S.546 QT @colbertlateshow: On #LSSC tonight: Mitch McConnell says Jon Stewart is ‘bent out of shape’ for asking Congress to extend the 9/11 Vi… https://t.co/Dve2m7vwz3)
@TODAYshow @OklahomaBway @ALISTROKER Congratulations, @ALISTROKER! But REALLY no ramp to allow her to get onstage?? ♀️ I look forward to seeing more from Ali, and to seeing a new generation of performers with disabilities take center stage! ♿️
It’s insulting what Donald Trump said about Vietnam: that he didn’t serve because “he wasn’t a fan of the war.” No Veteran I know is a “fan of war" but unlike Trump, they responded when their nation called them to duty. Like true patriots. Whether or not they had a choice. https://t.co/0ZOcjN5hoy
General McConville and I served together 15 years ago & we're both recovering officers. Yesterday, I had the honor of asking him in a Senate hearing how he would ensure our rapidly modernizing military technology has the logistical support network in place to maintain it. ⬇️ https://t.co/HaBdCvPUsy
This new registry needs to be fully funded to improve our understanding of the heightened cancer risks associated with firefighting and help address the issue. I’ll keep working with @SenDurbin on this bipartisan effort. https://t.co/9nW035bnsi
