@TwinJewel2 Happy birthday Joyce!

I would like to thank everyone in the city of Chattanooga who have supported me throughout the years. But it's time for me to step down from congress. I've enjoyed the 13 years of service I've given back to the city. I trust in the remaining public officials to handle things.

@Val_Val39 She's in all of our minds Valerie. It's tough but we'll get through it, together.

Going through hardships is a part of life. It's up to you whether you let hardships take control of your life or not.

[Victor Valentine Sr @CongressVic73]

@BusinessPride01 41 years? Each year I remember just how old we're getting. Happy 41st birthday Joe.

Charles Koch to Paul Ryan: Here's $500K for giving me a massive tax cut at working families' expense.

Also Charles Koch: “When large companies can pressure politicians to force everyday Americans to fork over unearned millions, we should all question the fairness of the system.”

@TwinJewel1 That's wonderful news Rosette!

Today’s indictments are just the latest confirmation that Russia interfered with our elections. We need to put a stop to this threat to our democracy, and this shouldn’t be a partisan issue. -PM

@KaylaAshton19 Victor jr told me that you and he are going to see a movie this evening. Along with Vandre and another girl. A double date. I won't be at my home to see you guys off tonight. Have fun Kayla.

DACA was destroyed by you, Mr. President. But you don't see that. The republican party is working hard at sabotaging the poor, nothing more. https://t.co/V4VduJGCON

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

Cannot believe how BADLY DACA recipients have been treated by the Democrats...totally abandoned! Republicans are still working hard.

I'm a little late to this, but the violence such as what happened in the Florida high school was an atrocity, and cannot be permitted in any school. #KeepOurChildrenSafe

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

If Republicans actually listened to those in need, like Cara Sachs, maybe they would understand that "entitlement reform" will devastate the lives of millions of Americans.

[Victor Valentine Sr @CongressVic73]

@PowerOfEquals I thank God for the 73 years you've had on this earth. Happy birthday dad.

[Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons]

Today, I introduced an immigration bill w @SenJohnMcCain that would invest in border security & protect Dreamers, young people brought to this country as kids through no fault of their own.

[Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray]

This isn’t about transparency, this is just another attempt to undermine and discredit the Russia investigation, Deputy AG Rosenstein, and the hard-working men & women of the FBI — and another attempt to protect President Trump.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

The release of the Nunes memo is a blatant attempt by House Republicans and the White House to disrupt the critically important investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election and possible collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign.

[Victor Valentine Sr @CongressVic73]

@DocValentine71 Hell yes.

Black history month is and should always be every month. Not just one. Blacks are a monumental foundation for the world's prosperity.
