Orange County is fortunate to be home to top-notch doctors, researchers, and institutions making breakthrough discoveries to end cancer as we know it. Last year, I had the pleasure of learning about the innovations taking place at @UCIrvineHealth directly. #WorldCancerDay https://t.co/Ws4abWgOQ9 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Today, the House passed legislation to boost our global competitiveness, strengthen supply chains and U.S.-based manufacturing, and lower costs. I'm proud the America COMPETES Act includes several of my amendments to prioritize climate action in our approach to national security. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

It's Thank a Mail Carrier Day! @USPS is a national treasure that connects our communities, delivers prescriptions to seniors and veterans, and helps small businesses thrive. I hope you'll join me in taking some time today to thank your mail person for all that they do 📬 https://t.co/QKif494ZsD — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Government officials who abuse their positions for personal gain betray the trust of the American people and weaken our democracy. Banning Congressmembers from trading stocks is an essential step toward restoring faith in government. https://t.co/NRrsbzZ1s5 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Women in the workforce are integral to economic growth. Our global competitors are prioritizing smart family policies, like paid leave, affordable child care, and universal pre-k, because they're smart economic policies. The U.S. needs to catch up. https://t.co/sWIhVe2pfG — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

The big banks make billions each year exploiting vulnerable families who can't make ends meet. This greed drives Americans toward predatory payday lenders. I'm glad the Biden Administration is taking action to better protect consumers. https://t.co/oUuzyZpvvt — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I voted for the bipartisan infrastructure law because it'll strengthen California's economy. Our team is working in concert with state and local leaders to secure meaningful investments in Orange County. More on the resources available to our community ⬇️ https://t.co/zCfoOHge5f — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

As we welcome the #YearOfTheTiger, I'm reflecting on how fortunate we are in Orange County to be enriched by one of the largest Asian American populations in the United States. This diversity is one of our greatest strengths. Happy Lunar New Year to all who celebrate! — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Social Security has been a lifeline for families ever since the first check was issued 82 years ago today. This vital program has helped millions retire with dignity and boosted local economies. We must protect future generations by strengthening Social Security. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Pollution from wildfires puts lives at risk by worsening asthma, prompting heart attacks, and exacerbating other health issues. We must take action against the climate crisis because it's intensifying California's wildfires and damaging our health. https://t.co/NrqWwQm6ra — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Being clear-eyed about the past, including its horrors, is necessary to creating a better future. I encouraged @UCIrvine to apply to host @HolocaustMuseum's traveling exhibition because our community knows how critical it is to learn from our history. #HolocaustRemembranceDay — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Addressing our nuclear legacy in the Marshall Islands is key to renewing an important diplomatic agreement, so my @NRDems Subcommittee is conducting oversight. Our investigation has raised deep questions about the @StateDept and U.S. leadership in the Pacific. I want answers ⬇️ https://t.co/leCSjXwmRw — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Canceling $50,000 of student loan debt is critical for our economic recovery. Nearly 90% of fully-employed borrowers say they're not financially secure enough to resume payments when the pause is lifted. That will hold our economy back and hurt all of us. https://t.co/Ek4U9luYB6 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Climate change is causing food shortages, unrest, and displacement around the world. We must make fighting this crisis a top priority in our security planning. I’m proud to co-lead a task force with @JimLangevin that’ll spearhead solutions to do just that. https://t.co/0fxoEbcgFL — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Scam PACs make millions each year off of Americans, usually veterans and seniors, who thought they were participating in our democracy. Today, @RepMalinowski and I introduced legislation to crack down on these predatory groups. More ⤵️ — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Members of Congress should be working for the people, not for their stock portfolios. My colleagues and I are demanding House leadership bring legislation to the floor that bans congresspeople from owning or trading stocks while in office. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

@Bridginne @DeathValleyNPS At many parks, it is a fee per vehicle. So the 4th grader with the pass gets everyone in for free. My daughter really liked being able to treat us all. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I'm fighting to strengthen Every Kid Outdoors because it teaches kids about public lands, helps families take affordable vacations, and boosts local economies. This program should be accessible to all. Learn more ⬇️ https://t.co/QB7sDSbtLU — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

And because there's one in every family, I bring you... Paul ⤵️ https://t.co/FGkHiSTsZk — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Reminder to all families with fourth graders! It's not too late to sign up for Every Kid Outdoors, a wonderful program that lets fourth graders and their families into our national parks for free. Our family recently took advantage and visited @DeathValleyNPS. https://t.co/h23x2Ibpsj — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

It's difficult to think that my daughter's generation may not have the same freedoms as mine or my mother's. Reproductive justice is essential to social equity and an individual's economic security. The Senate must act by passing the Women's Health Protection Act. #RoeAnniversary — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

U.S. drone strikes have killed thousands of innocent civilians, including children and American citizens. The Biden Administration needs to recognize these broken approaches devastate communities, erode America's image abroad, and make us less safe. https://t.co/Dhoc8DpmBq — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Taxpayers subsidize oil and gas drilling to the tune of $660 billion per year. Meanwhile, weather-related disasters intensified by climate change cost us billions each year to clean up. It doesn't seem like propping up polluters is the wisest use of taxpayer dollars to me 🤔 https://t.co/udGV7zrcTr — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Per-unit prices usually go down when you buy in bulk—unless, apparently, taxpayers are paying. Internal documents from defense contractor TransDigm show the corporation is training staff to price-gouge the Pentagon. I demanded answers from TransDigm's Executive Chairman ⬇ https://t.co/wqTyFQPciU — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

In an internal email, a salesperson for TransDigm—a defense contractor—bragged about "being full of B.S." but still making a deal that ripped off taxpayers. Today, I confronted TransDigm's Executive Chairman about the company's price gouging. His response? No comment. https://t.co/6uF0ONwL2Q — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Medicare for All wouldn't just save lives; it would also decrease overall health care spending and save taxpayers ~$450 billion each year. I'm looking forward to talking about this and more today with @Public_Citizen. RSVP ⬇️ https://t.co/pXMIvOVHnl — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Knowing if you have COVID is key to stopping its spread. Starting today—one day ahead of schedule—families can order free at-home coronavirus tests via @USPS. Enter your address ⬇️ to get tests delivered straight to your door. https://t.co/pFY0tAUhDS — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

The most meaningful tribute we can make to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is to secure voting rights for every American. Now is not just a time for reflection, but also for action. The House passed the Freedom to Vote Act last week; the Senate must show the same courage. #MLKDay — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

An all-electric school bus fleet would cut carbon emissions by 5+ million tons—all while saving districts up to 80% on fuel, maintenance, and repairs. I'm proud the bipartisan infrastructure law makes it easier for schools to use electric buses. https://t.co/IFU3hASawA — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Knowing if you have COVID-19 can help keep you, your family, and your community safe. That's why, back in March 2020, I pressed the former head of the CDC to make testing free for every American. https://t.co/VC8dl9DJ1p — PolitiTweet.org
