Date Title

06/25/2022 Tweet - "Nine years ago today, the Supreme Court dealt a grave blow to American Democracy with its disastrous ruling in Shelby v. Holder."
01/11/2022 Tweet - "Today in Georgia, @POTUS made it crystal clear: the Senate must find a path forward to enshrine critical voting rights legislation into law. President Biden is to be commended for his strong voice and leadership in this fight as we strive to protect the sacred right to vote."
07/02/2021 Tweet - "For 57 years, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 has stood as a pillar of our democracy. With this landmark legislation, our nation took a monumental step toward living up to our fundamental ideals of freedom and liberty for every American."
06/25/2021 Tweet - "Today marks 8 years since SCOTUS handed down Shelby v. Holder: one of the most disastrous and dangerous decisions for our democracy in recent memory. @HouseDemocrats crafted and then twice passed HR 1, the #ForThePeople Act, to remedy the assault on the vote and on our democracy."
06/22/2021 Tweet - "The #ForThePeople Act is the remedy to the anti-democratic tide that is sweeping our nation. Yet, all Senate Republicans voted against even proceeding to debate on democracy reform -- because they know that the only way for them to win elections is to suppress the vote."
06/15/2021 Tweet - "Our country couldn't have been better served than by the courage of these Democratic Texas state lawmakers. Their visit to the Capitol brings us honor & I'm proud to stand with them in combating actions to suppress the vote. It is essential that we pass HR 1 the #ForThePeople Act"
06/13/2021 Tweet - "We have to defend our democracy. It isn't about Democrats or Republicans. It's not about partisanship. It's about patriotism. That's why @HouseDemocrats and @POTUS are fighting #ForThePeople."
04/28/2021 Tweet - "With @POTUS Biden's leadership, @HouseDemocrats are making historic progress #ForThePeople -- lowering the cost of health care, delivering bigger paychecks by building our infrastructure and ensuring our government works for the public interest, not dark money special interests."
03/08/2021 Tweet - "In 1965, John Lewis & other advocates who marched for the #VotingRightsAct were brutally attacked by police in Selma, AL. It is our privilege to honor their legacy by fostering a democracy that works for every voter. #RestoreTheVRA"
03/03/2021 Tweet - "There's a direct correlation between the suppression of the vote, campaign funding & American's health. If Republicans are proud of their dark money, then why won't they disclose it? @HouseDemocrats are holding public officials accountable to their constituents w/ #HR1"
03/03/2021 Tweet - "Our Founders laid the expectation that our government would work For The People - not special interests. Gerrymandering, voter suppression & dark money continue to silence Americans - Congress must put power back in the hands of the people by passing the #ForThePeopleAct."
03/02/2021 Tweet - "The longer it takes to make H.R. 1 become law, the longer voters can be disenfranchised like this. It's unacceptable. @HouseDemocrats are working to strengthen our democracy by expanding access to the ballot box, not limiting it. #ForThePeople"
01/06/2021 Tweet - "Today's shameful assault on our democracy -- anointed at the highest level of government -- must not deter us from our responsibility to the Constitution. Tonight, we will move forward with the certification of President-elect Joe Biden's election."

09/01/2020 Tweet - ".@DNI_Ratcliffe's abrupt decision to cancel previously scheduled election-related briefings for Members of Congress is deeply troubling. The American people have a right to know about ongoing foreign efforts to influence their votes."
08/29/2020 Tweet - "The Office of the Director of National Intelligence's decision to cancel all election security briefings for the Congress is a shocking abdication of its responsibility to keep Congress informed."
08/27/2020 Tweet - "President Trump's fear tactics have one goal: to convince Americans not to exercise their right to vote. Do not listen to him. Do not let him succeed. @thebeatwithari #DontMessWithUSPS"
