The CDC projects that without masking or testing, ~75% of kids under 12 could be infected with COVID-19 within three months. Parents have been left in the dark with regards to when young kids will be able to get vaccinated. They deserve some answers. https://t.co/O3RqEbmnXg — PolitiTweet.org

We should do all that we can to empower survivors of domestic violence to escape abuse, including financial abuse. I'm proud the House approved my proposal to integrate economic abuse into the Violence Against Women Act. The Senate must do the same. #VAWA — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Yesterday, I toured the @HumanOptions emergency shelter to learn more about the resources available there. This remarkable organization in our community supports domestic violence survivors. https://t.co/We1oHCibCa — PolitiTweet.org

The pandemic has increased food insecurity, including in our community. Today, I was proud to help launch Harvest Solutions Farm, which will provide produce to Orange County families in need. Thanks @SecondHarvestFB, @ucanr, and Solutions for Urban Agriculture for having me! https://t.co/NjMH1Nzm46 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Earlier this month, @RepRoKhanna and I led over 100 Representatives on both sides of the aisle in demanding answers from the @US_FDA about the timeline for getting kids under 12 vaccinated. https://t.co/ZXQMXVCriH — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

We can't rush the science, but we can be more transparent about when kids under 12 will be able to get vaccinated. Parents deserve some clarity about the vaccine approval process for young kids, so I'm urging the @US_FDA to provide some answers. https://t.co/XQaU8poxsu — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I'm a champion for robust government oversight, and Afghanistan is no exception. The American people need to know what went wrong and how. Today, I attended a briefing by a government watchdog—the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction—to get answers. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Policymakers in Washington have long failed to prioritize child care, and that's holding our entire economy back. Unaffordable child care hurts workers—particularly women—which makes our economy less globally competitive. We must invest in child care in the next budget bill. https://t.co/PxQJej0IQ5 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

We can't leave any families behind in our economic recovery. By administering relief directly through child care providers, we can cut down on unnecessary bureaucracy and get more families the help they need. https://t.co/bWlpFOfxAK — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

After-school programs make it easier for parents to work a full business day, which benefits us all by boosting our economy. We should invest in child care for all school-aged kids, so more parents can participate fully in the workforce. https://t.co/7L8wm9MFN6 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Families shouldn't have to spend hours trying to figure out if they can get help paying for child care. I agree with @POTUS that child care expenses should be capped at 7% of income, which will deliver targeted relief without handcuffing busy parents with mountains of paperwork. https://t.co/KLI5oa8n0v — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

As a single mom, I’ve spent 5 figures on child care for a summer. Enrolling my daughter in preschool at the college where I taught cost more than undergraduate tuition. Families can't keep stretching their budgets. Here’s how Congress can help parents—and our economy. (THREAD) — PolitiTweet.org

Everyone ought to be able to take advantage of Every Kid Outdoors, which lets fourth graders and their families into national parks for free. I'm urging my colleagues to finally break down the barriers that are preventing some families from participating. https://t.co/Vr3WMX1X3M — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Vacations in national parks were a staple in my family growing up—not just because we loved camping, but because they were affordable. I continued this tradition with my own kids through Every Kid Outdoors, a program all families should be able to enjoy. https://t.co/AnFSYH2UGx — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Lawmakers need facts to craft meaningful policy. There's a lot of misinformation out there about our southern border, so I decided to visit it again myself. I met with migrants and @CBP, and toured a COVID testing and vaccination center to learn more about what's happening. https://t.co/P4ErfY56Tf — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Dreamers help Orange County flourish. Earlier this week, I toured the Titan Dreamers Resource Center to learn more about how @csuf is protecting #DACA recipients in our community. I'm proud the House voted to create a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers. The Senate needs to act. https://t.co/mJwMyoV0c2 — PolitiTweet.org

The United States exploded the equivalent of 1.6 Hiroshima bombs every day for twelve years in the Marshall Islands. We have work to do to make this right. I explain ⬇️ https://t.co/aI06cDcKMz — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Orange County is blessed to be home to one of the first Marshallese communities in the United States. I recently met with local leaders to discuss how Congress can better support the Marshallese, including by pursuing justice for America's nuclear legacy in the Marshall Islands. https://t.co/CENSj8Uv60 — PolitiTweet.org

Corporations and the ultra-wealthy have long cheated the tax code, which has led to a $1 trillion gap between what's owed and what's paid. Enough is enough. Corporations depend on our infrastructure; they should have to pay their fair share when we invest in it. https://t.co/nCi19MP5mi — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

It's @NatlParkService's birthday, which means you and your loved ones can visit national parks for free today! 🥳 Our family went to @ZionNPS this summer through Every Kid Outdoors—an amazing program that waives fees for 4th graders and their families year-round. Learn more ⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

I was proud to vote today for #HR4, the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. This bill affirms that all voters—regardless of their party preference or the state they live in—should be able to cast their ballots freely, safely, and equally. — PolitiTweet.org

@LopezCherryred @OCFA_PIO Yes! We’ll be streaming this event live on Facebook. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

The 2020 Silverado Fire threatened ~70,000 buildings in our community. As our state experiences worsening wildfires each year, it's crucial that families know how to stay safe. Next TUESDAY, @OCFA_PIO and I are hosting a town hall on wildfire preparedness. More ⤵️ https://t.co/9GHCwHvaHq — PolitiTweet.org

As a professor, you know you sometimes get bad answers. The Postmaster General laughing off his ignorance was one of the worst. One year ago today, Louis DeJoy couldn’t tell me—or the American people—a basic fact about the agency he was overhauling. — PolitiTweet.org
