Big Oil has been waging a decades-long disinformation campaign to cover up the damage they’re doing to our planet. @RepRaulGrijalva and I want answers from the public relations firms that are enabling oil and gas companies to deceive the American people. https://t.co/Y6ODy7xo4f — PolitiTweet.org

I'm proud of our casework team, which works tirelessly to cut through red tape and get Orange County families answers from federal agencies. As of this week, we've returned $7+ million to members of our community. Learn more about how we can help ⬇️ https://t.co/66x4hYC5vK — PolitiTweet.org

My family and I recently visited the Manzanar internment camp, one of the sites where Japanese Americans were unjustly imprisoned during World War II. This space reminds us of the urgent need to stand up against hate, and how the fight for justice is ongoing. #DayOfRemembrance https://t.co/DlL1dzId5A — PolitiTweet.org

Salespeople at defense contractors (looking at you, TransDigm) have literally bragged about lying to the federal government in order to line their pockets with taxpayer dollars. These corporations need to be held accountable. (3/3) https://t.co/ciIER9wJco — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Defense contractors routinely abuse taxpayers. @LockheedMartin lobbied for COVID relief funds—even though 1) profits were through the roof, and 2) the corporation still hadn't paid back the millions it owed for selling the U.S. military faulty parts. (2/3) https://t.co/voeewBqteu — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Consolidation in the defense industry enables price-gouging at the expense of taxpayers and makes it easy for these corporations to evade responsibility. I will continue to stand up for competition and accountability. (1/3) https://t.co/EfzaBiYp5m — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Orange County is an innovation hub. I recently met with two @UCIrvine grads whose OC-based small business is helping people regain mobility after brain injuries through games that can be played at home. In Congress, I'll keep fighting for resources for our researchers. https://t.co/h9ev4HIBEg — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Members of Congress have a duty to hold the Administration accountable, regardless of who is in the White House. I'm glad the Administration is taking action to better protect people with disabilities, but more must be done to keep these Americans safe. https://t.co/lX1My3vlLs — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

The White House is currently distributing N95 masks from the Strategic National Stockpile, but millions of people with disabilities can't safely or easily travel to pick up locations. I'm urging the Administration to change course and ship masks to these Americans directly ⬇️ https://t.co/Ptq1JU108V — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

It's common sense to prioritize the removal of spent nuclear fuel from regions that have high populations and are prone to earthquakes. I'm proud to join my colleagues, led by @RepMikeLevin, in this effort to keep Southern Californians safe. https://t.co/2oF98MFC0z — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Banning top government officials from trading stocks is an important step to weed out corruption—but we also need to crack down on lawmakers who use their power to get federal grants, loans, and contracts. @gillibrandny and my bill, the STOCK Act 2.0, would expose this abuse. https://t.co/jvS9p2goBD — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Americans with disabilities need protections, especially during a pandemic. I have been calling for stronger safeguards against discrimination in health care, so I’m glad the Administration is taking this step. https://t.co/1hERUUE5cL — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I proudly helped bring the @HolocaustMuseum's Americans and the Holocaust exhibit to Orange County, which is on display at @UCIrvine through March 9. At the recent virtual opening event, I spoke about the importance of choosing action over inaction. https://t.co/ZJCEYj8yBV — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Some big businesses deliberately underemploy workers and pay them less, in order to boost their profits. The Part-Time Worker Bill of Rights Act, which I've introduced with @janschakowsky, @SenWarren, and @rosadelauro, will crack down on this corporate abuse. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

With new reports about how polluters' misinformation tactics may have evolved, we must redouble our work to hold oil companies and their enablers accountable. I am proud to lead this effort with @NRDems Chair @RepRaulGrijalva. https://t.co/FW57Jshl95 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Our state's year-round fire threats and heat advisories in the middle of February are no coincidences. They are concrete harms of the climate crisis. I will keep pushing for climate action, to protect California families. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

When the big banks cheat Americans, they should face consequences. @SenWarren and I will not let @WellsFargo get away with gaming the system. We're getting answers on whether the responsible watchdog is up to the task. https://t.co/y1b8F04SVP — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Since my first year in office, I have been investigating the contractors responsible for retrieving organs from donors. I'm glad the Biden Administration is taking this on, and I look forward to working with them to save lives. https://t.co/YuNxyu9Kh6 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

The Administration is currently considering improvements to our organ transplant system. I'm pushing for protections that would help patients of color, HIV-positive patients, and patients with disabilities; crack down on waste and fraud from contractors; and save lives. https://t.co/EhorKndGyV — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Since September, I have been calling for a presidential appointee to lead these negotiations. We need to address this impasse quickly, and in a way that reflects President Biden's commitments to diplomacy, countering China, and racial justice. https://t.co/Gp5jjg38RP — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Californians know firsthand how worsening wildfires fueled by the climate crisis are making us sick. By investing in global health, we can keep Americans safe. I'm excited to talk about this and more on Friday with @RepJudyChu and experts from @USCGlobalHealth. RSVP 👇 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

By strengthening disclosure requirements for top government officials who receive federal loans, grants, and contracts, and by banning Congressmembers and others from trading stocks, we can restore faith in government. Learn more about the STOCK Act 2.0 ⬇️ https://t.co/sxuitF3yS9 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

The American people deserve to have confidence that their government is working for them. I'm pleased House leadership is open to updating the STOCK Act to ban members from trading stocks, but @gillibrandny and my bill, the STOCK Act 2.0, goes even further to root out corruption. https://t.co/vPkp5Ts9jv — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

As a member of @OversightDems, I've championed @USPS and its vital work for our communities. Today, I joined my House colleagues in passing bipartisan legislation that will stabilize the agency's financials and improve accountability, reliability, and transparency. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

California is at the forefront of advancing environmental justice and protecting those historically left behind. I asked a climate justice advocate about CA's success, and he stressed how vital it is that community organizations led by people of color have seats at the table ⬇ https://t.co/QVL89vDbhL — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Legal traps known as forced arbitration agreements cut workers off from the justice system. Today, I proudly voted for legislation that will make it easier for survivors of sexual harassment and assault to hold abusers accountable. #EndForcedArbitration https://t.co/zLv58xatMK — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I had so much fun celebrating the new year and Orange County's flourishing Asian American population over the weekend! This year's Tết Festival was a testament to how fortunate we are in O.C. to be enriched by one of largest Vietnamese communities in the United States. https://t.co/Bi31xiNRiH — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Disasters fueled by climate change are ravaging California, but no single agency is responsible for analyzing their devastation and our resilience. Creating an independent board would help us better understand how we keep people safe moving forward. https://t.co/2ulW92I8sj — PolitiTweet.org
