Families need the full Build Back Better agenda. As I wrote with @USProgressives' leaders: "Without both the infrastructure bill and the budget bill, our economic recovery will be slow, unstable, and weak. Millions will be left out or fall further behind." https://t.co/UdxjDC3V4e — PolitiTweet.org

On #GoldStarMotherDay, we honor the military families who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. My heart breaks for the servicemembers who we've lost. I’m hopeful our gold star families are finding comfort in their child’s memory today. — PolitiTweet.org

Passing the Build Back Better budget in tandem with the bipartisan infrastructure bill is mutually assured success. Together, these bills invest in what we need for a strong, stable, globally competitive economy: roads, bridges, climate, child care, health care, and education. https://t.co/EfAN2EB7JE — PolitiTweet.org

Six decades after they ended, the U.S. is still withholding info about nuclear tests in the Marshall Islands. @Kilili_Sablan, @RepAmata, and I led a measure to declassify key documents about this shameful chapter in our history. There can be no closure without disclosure. (6/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Representatives can often offer amendments—or changes—to a bill during debate. I'm proud to bring the voices of Orange County families to Washington, and I'm so excited to share that the House approved eight of my proposed changes to the annual defense bill. (THREAD) — PolitiTweet.org

When politicians forbid women from making our own health care decisions, they are threatening our economic security. Every American should be free to control their own body, and the Women's Health Protection Act will safeguard this liberty. I am proud to vote yes today. #WHPA — PolitiTweet.org

I support investing in roads and bridges, but the data shows 90% of jobs created by the infrastructure bill will go to men—despite women's workforce participation being at a 30-year low. Fortunately, the reconciliation bill helps women get back to work. Our economy requires both. https://t.co/HsmlHNmW10 — PolitiTweet.org

It's no mystery why diagnoses skyrocket at age 65. Many delay doctors visits until they're on Medicare, causing an uptick in diseases that are harder and more costly to treat. I’m calling for lowering the eligibility age to 60 to help more Americans and save taxpayer money. https://t.co/G8fdgY5sg9 — PolitiTweet.org

Big Oil depends on taxpayer welfare. Companies pay below-market rates to pollute on public lands, then leave taxpayers to clean up their messes. @Public_Citizen and I are fed up, and we're pressuring Congress to finally crack down on this corporate abuse. https://t.co/ayfmVGetwm — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats and Republicans paid our bills 3x under President Trump because it's the responsible thing to do. The adults are again ready to meet our obligations, but chatter from the kids' row risks economic disaster. This is no time for games. We have bills to pay. (3/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Do you have automatic payments set up for all your bills? Congress doesn't. Archaic rules require us to sign off once to spend the money and again to remove it from our piggy bank—even though it’s already spent. (2/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Representatives have a duty to explain clearly to the American people what's going on in Washington. So, let's talk about a phrase that's been kicked around a lot lately: "the debt ceiling." Spoiler: This just means paying bills we've already incurred. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Deductions exist so families are taxed on what's left after they pay mandatory expenses, like food, health care, and yes—state and local taxes. We should crack down on the ultra-wealthy, but not at the expense of families in high cost of living areas. Families need SALT relief. https://t.co/BgU2S0NWSM — PolitiTweet.org

Our most successful businesses know there are costs to not offering paid leave. Without it, talent exits the workforce—and sometimes never comes back. If they do, there are costs to retraining and productivity. Paid leave makes workplaces stronger. We need #PaidLeaveForAll. https://t.co/WBHRzQdBLA — PolitiTweet.org
