As part of my Community Project Funding Requests, I'm proud to advocate for $1.8 million for the Marie Wilkinson Food Pantry. By establishing an additional facility for distribution, this project would offer increased access and resources for those combatting food insecurity. https://t.co/kkCkKt0CfA — PolitiTweet.org

It was great to visit the TCDF to hear how the $975,000 I secured will help build their new Industrial Painting Pre-apprenticeship program. I’m proud of the work the TCDF is doing to train the next generation of workers to care for our vital infrastructure. https://t.co/whYXhQk2Su — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Juneteenth! It was great to join Naperville Neighbors United and the AAMOU for their celebrations yesterday. Today and everyday, let’s celebrate how far our nation has progressed in racial justice and remember the work we have left to do. https://t.co/GImns3wi0t — PolitiTweet.org

Americans across the ideological spectrum agree we must act to lower prices at the grocery store and at the gas pump. The Lower Food and Fuel Costs Act has received bipartisan support and offers real solutions to lower costs for consumers. https://t.co/OmNW8QM343 — PolitiTweet.org

Now more than ever, reliable internet access is essential for students to succeed. I introduced a bill to help close the divide for the millions of students who lack broadband internet access in their home, helping them complete & succeed in their courses. https://t.co/s3Ly0CoUZA — PolitiTweet.org

6/ That case is being appealed, and DACA could be heard at the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals soon, so it is imperative that current DACA recipients are diligently submitting their renewals. To request DACA or submit your renewal application, visit: https://t.co/w3oU3rTHLz — PolitiTweet.org

5/ Last year, a federal judge in Texas stopped first-time DACA applications from being processed and left tens of thousands of young people without any form of protection from the threat of deportation. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Bill Foster @RepBillFoster

4/ According to @CAPimmigration, the average DACA recipient is 26 years old- a young adult aging into traditional American milestones like homeownership. Alongside chronic uncertainty, the lack of a pathway to citizenship is a barrier to full participation in the U.S. economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Bill Foster @RepBillFoster

3/ For a decade, our communities defended DACA despite efforts to displace Dreamers. Today, we recognize the significance of this 10 year milestone. At the same time, the past 10 years have also meant chronic uncertainty and stress for DACA recipients and their families. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Bill Foster @RepBillFoster

2/ While DACA was a significant achievement for many immigrants, it is by no means a substitute for comprehensive immigration reform or a pathway to citizenship for immigrant youth and their families. — PolitiTweet.org
