The U.S. has never prioritized family-friendly policies like other developed countries have, and that’s holding our workforce—and our economy—back. We need the full Build Back Better agenda to remain globally competitive. — PolitiTweet.org

The major oil leak off the coast of Orange County is a real threat to our health, economy, and planet. As Chair of @NRDems' Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, I'm working to hold the responsible party to account. As I said yesterday, our Committee will be investigating. https://t.co/oBvqmy9emc — PolitiTweet.org

Legal deadlines aren't optional, including for the @DeptofDefense. It's been 475 days since the Pentagon was required to strengthen rules that prevent taxpayer dollars from going to human rights violators. They must answer for this unacceptable delay. https://t.co/GSEkbQx89M — PolitiTweet.org

Our recovery from the recent oil leak will require coordination from federal, state, and local officials. This is an important step from @Cal_OES, and I will fight to get federal help for our state, including @SBAgov loans for our small businesses hurt by this disaster. — PolitiTweet.org

Oversight is about closing the gap between what's law and what's happening on the ground. Congress allocated billions to help people make rent during the pandemic, but families still face hurdles to getting this relief.

I'm grateful the @US_FDA briefed my colleagues and me, but the agency shouldn't have left parents in the dark for months. Public health officials need to build trust with the people they serve, and that starts with being transparent. (8/9) — PolitiTweet.org

The @US_FDA recently added more kids to the current vaccine trials for ages 5-12. @RepRoKhanna wanted to know why, and Dr. Marks assured us that their goal is to have as much safety data as possible. As someone who likes to crunch numbers, I can appreciate this! 🤓 (7/9) — PolitiTweet.org

My colleague @USRepKCastor asked about the safety of kids getting both the COVID and flu vaccines. Dr. Marks said there's no reason to worry about getting both vaccines. In fact, @US_FDA is working on combining them into a single shot 💉 (6/9) — PolitiTweet.org

It's possible for pre-teens to weigh as much as adults who are eligible for the vaccine. So, I also asked how height and weight factor in. The response? Kids have more reactive immune systems than similarly-sized adults, so weight-based dosing isn't the most accurate. (5/9) — PolitiTweet.org

As a mom of a 9 year old myself, I had a few questions for Dr. Marks—like, where will vaccines for young kids be administered once they're approved? Answer: From their pediatrician or other approved health care workers, depending on the state. (4/9) — PolitiTweet.org

Let's start with what's on everyone's minds. What's the anticipated timeline for: ✅Fast-tracked authorization for kids under 5? Spring 2022 ✅Fast-tracked authorization for kids 5-12? Before Thanksgiving, possibly before Halloween ✅Full approval for kids 12-15? Fall 2021 (3/9) — PolitiTweet.org

The President's agenda has not been set back; it is back on track. The American people gave us a mandate to grow the economy by fixing problems in their lives: the lack child and elder care options, sky-high college costs, and unaffordable health care.

Big Pharma's price gouging hurts every patient and every taxpayer in this country. It's no wonder why both President Trump and President Biden campaigned on letting Medicare negotiate drug prices. The American people want and need #HR3. https://t.co/HvI8iPGBab — PolitiTweet.org

Improved infrastructure, affordable child care, better health care, and climate action are all part of the President's agenda. The American people need Congress to deliver on every single one of these problems. We need both the infrastructure bill and the Build Back Better Act. https://t.co/usgCauiHjd — PolitiTweet.org

The Build Back Better bill is popular because it deals with real problems families are facing: difficulties in affording child and elder care, the costs of college, and concerns about the climate crisis. Congress must work to get President Biden's agenda over the finish line. — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden was elected with a mandate to make it easier for families to get child and elder care, reduce the costs of college, and fight the climate crisis. The Build Back Better budget contains all of these priorities. Congress must deliver. https://t.co/SqzFq0hSBb — PolitiTweet.org

Women got 12% of all new jobs last month. At this rate, it's going to take *9 years* to return to pre-pandemic employment numbers. That's 9 years our economy simply doesn't have. Investing in child care is smart economic policy. https://t.co/CEniGX7RfE — PolitiTweet.org

The Build Back Better Act is completely paid for—as long as my colleagues are willing to stand up to special interests. We can raise revenue by ending corporate giveaways in our tax code, cracking down on wealthy tax cheats, and lowering prescription drug prices. https://t.co/R4pj4oJ5OG — PolitiTweet.org
