Every American is hurt by the lack of paid leave in our country. If we want to have a strong, stable, and globally competitive workforce, we have to stop forcing families to choose between a paycheck and taking care of loved ones in need. https://t.co/ZiKdgkRrMv — PolitiTweet.org

A former oil rig worker, @MPFSmith knows what it's like to spend hours toiling on behalf of Big Oil. He recently shared some stories during a @NRDems Oversight Subcommittee hearing I chaired, but I'm eager to learn more. Join us TODAY for a live chat on Facebook. Details 👇 https://t.co/sj9hJ5NUtT — PolitiTweet.org

Workplace discrimination hurts our economy. In 2018 alone, the U.S. lost ~$850 billion because older Americans were denied opportunities. Today, I voted for bipartisan legislation to strengthen protections for Americans who face age discrimination at work. https://t.co/iRmycFX0OG — PolitiTweet.org

Every Kid Outdoors is supposed to give every 4th grader and their family a chance to visit our national parks for free, but it's long been underfunded and underutilized. Learn more ⬇️ https://t.co/IJtYZguTpl — PolitiTweet.org

Regardless of who is in the White House, I’m asking questions in hearings about the issues that matter to families. Today, I asked @SecDebHaaland about getting the Every Kid Outdoors program adequate resources, so it’s accessible to all. https://t.co/qKinK00ANl — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Big Pharma knows that healthy markets (and affordable prices for consumers!) depend on competition. So, they gobble up small firms that would otherwise make them compete. Today, I detailed this for @TheJusticeDept and @FTC's task force on pharma mergers ⤵️ https://t.co/Y8bdjeszpK — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
.@POTUS is right; this low wage is ridiculous. It's making our communities less safe, especially during wildfire season. I asked a retired @forestservice Fire Staff Officer about this, and she explained that it's a key reason why crews are understaffed. https://t.co/CnyhQvqSCM — PolitiTweet.org
Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1
Pool report: Biden says he just learned that federal firefighters are paid $13. He banged the table and said that's ridiculous.
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
As Big Oil's largest banker, @jpmorgan knows that financing oil and gas projects is risky. @RepRoKhanna and I are concerned the bank might use taxpayer-funded COVID relief—not the record profits they made in 2019—as a shield if their investments don't pan out. We want answers. https://t.co/lL7MbI4SXR — PolitiTweet.org

The expanded #ChildTaxCredit gives direct help to families. That means more kids will have access to nutritious food, adequate housing, and quality child care. Find out more at https://t.co/sBdHaeFhSk. — PolitiTweet.org

UPDATE: As of last week, our office has helped over 2,000 families get answers from federal agencies. I'm so proud of my staff, who made sure Payam got his Visa in time for his son's birth, Christian got his passport before an important trip, and Lauren got her tax return 🎉 — PolitiTweet.org

Equality and justice are pillars of our country, but they have yet to be realized for all Americans. As we celebrate #Juneteenth, we confront our nation's brutal history and recognize that the fight for justice is ongoing. We must do more to build an equitable future for all. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
The last time we changed the rate oil and gas companies pay to drill on public lands, only 35% of Americans had electricity. Times change, and so should our policies. Like @SenJackyRosen, I'm eager to work with colleagues on both sides of the aisle and save taxpayers money. — PolitiTweet.org

ATTN: Orange County families đź“Łđź“Ł I'm so excited to announce an in-person, outdoor town hall on SUNDAY, July 11th! We've hosted some great virtual events, but there's really nothing like connecting in person. Can't wait to see you all there! More info ⤵️ https://t.co/dw5PtgOb67 — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
The power to declare war belongs to Congress because we are the branch most accountable to the people. Today, the House voted to repeal the 2002 Authorization for Use of Military Force, which has enabled endless war in Iraq. Let's do the 2001 AUMF next. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
We need to study problems to solve them, and yet no agency is responsible for fully reviewing natural disasters—including wildfires intensified by droughts. I introduced a bill to finally conduct this comprehensive research, which would make us safer while saving taxpayer money. — PolitiTweet.org

Question 5: Is there legislation to take action on this problem? https://t.co/plknEadQOv
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
California's wildfire season gets worse year after year, in large part because the climate crisis is causing longer and more intense droughts—like the one we are currently experiencing. Homes get destroyed, families breathe in toxic air, and entire ecosystems are lost. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
To escape accountability, insurers cut families off from the judicial system by sneaking mandatory arbitration clauses into their fine print. Today, @RepLloydDoggett, @janschakowsky, @rosadelauro and I introduced a bill to make it easier for patients and workers to get justice. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Congress created the Provider Relief Fund to—get this!—help health care providers treat patients in a pandemic. It seems @tenethealth used this taxpayer money to expand their business, all while neglecting COVID patients. I'm calling for an investigation. https://t.co/WWAls5V72b — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Policymakers are failing parents. Families fight to afford skyrocketing child care costs, and without paid leave, new parents are forced back to work soon after welcoming their children. The U.S. needs to catch up on supporting families. https://t.co/YiR9HrdB9U — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Don't let anyone say, "Oh, that's really complicated" when you're asking questions—especially when it comes to taxes. Special interests manipulated the system to avoid paying their fair shares, and they don't want families to know it. More from my IG live with @nowsimplified ⤵️ https://t.co/2eUqSjRwuw — PolitiTweet.org

Multiple whistleblowers have sounded the alarm that private equity firms are not paying their fair share. But, the IRS rarely conducts audits because they don't have the means to go after sophisticated tax cheats. I'm fighting to change this ⬇️ https://t.co/o6ras3a0un — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
The IRS wasn't defunded by accident. Powerful special interests lobbied to limit the agency's ability to go after them when they cheat the tax code. The ultra-wealthy avoid paying billions simply because the IRS doesn't have the resources to stop them. https://t.co/i9HARR9hJd — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
High drug prices don't just hurt those with prescriptions. Taxpayers foot the bill through Medicare when Big Pharma charges older Americans astronomical prices. In 2019, Medicare spent $77 billion on just 50 Part D drugs. This should concern every American. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks five years since 49 lives were taken at Pulse Nightclub, with many others left injured or traumatized. We must continue the work of building a country where everyone can be their authentic selves, free from violence and fear. — PolitiTweet.org

We had so many incredible submissions this year from students across our district. I'm excited to feature the work of the second and third place winners, Evan and Chloe, in our Orange County office.

Orange County has top-notch schools with amazing art programs, so I always look forward to our Congressional Art Competition.
