There's no discount for raising kids as a single parent, trust me. Yet, it's harder for kids from single parent homes to get help through the Child Tax Credit. I broke down this #SingleParentPenalty in March, and last week, I introduced a bill to strike it from the tax code. https://t.co/JPoNskcFCl — PolitiTweet.org

As a longtime consumer advocate, I know that bad actors will often try to take advantage of older Americans. This SATURDAY, I'm hosting a town hall on common scams against older Americans and how seniors can protect themselves. Leave your questions ⤵️ https://t.co/2pB3EeGCUX — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
The Child Tax Credit is supposed to help kids. No child should get less nutritious food or less secure housing because their parent isn't married. As I told @Lawrence back in February, I'm going to keep fighting for the removal of the #SingleParentPenalty. https://t.co/JplH73dKM9 — PolitiTweet.org

Families headed by single parents are less likely to get help from the #ChildTaxCredit—even though there's no discount for being a single parent. I wrote about why we need to strike the #SingleParentPenalty (and my bill with @RepPressley and @RepDonBeyer to do just that!) 👇 — PolitiTweet.org

Melody applied for a U-visa in 2016, but she rarely got updates. Things got dire when her dad had a stroke and she had to solely support her family—despite being legally unable to work. I'm proud our office was able to help get her application through. I called to say congrats 👇 https://t.co/iwOYgyPjW9 — PolitiTweet.org

To all who are celebrating the end of the holy month of Ramadan, I wish you and your families a blessed Eid al-Fitr. May this holiday usher in joy and good health to all who are breaking fast in California and around the world. — PolitiTweet.org

My colleagues and I were elected in 2018 and 2020 to fight political corruption, protect voting rights, and give the power of our democracy back to the people. Forty of us are urging the Senate to do whatever it takes to pass the #ForThePeopleAct #HR1. https://t.co/U19fldhHMy — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, I invited the CEOs of @exxonmobil, @DevonEnergy, and EOG Resources to explain why their corporations deserve billions in taxpayer-funded subsidies. All three declined. That won’t stop me from diving into how Big Oil is spending taxpayer dollars 🔎 — PolitiTweet.org

By investing in our kids, we make our country stronger for decades to come. I'm proud to share that 2/3 of children in our district will benefit from the expanded #ChildTaxCredit, but I'm overjoyed to announce that it will lift ~7,400 kids in our community out of poverty. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
We've been charging polluters the same rate to extract from public lands for decades, which causes taxpayers to lose out on billions of potential revenue a year. I'm proud my bill to raise fees cleared committee, so it's one step closer to becoming law. https://t.co/iti4RG3yrR — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Corporations that avoid taxes cheat families out of $1 trillion dollars a year. That money should be going towards growing our economy, not lining the pockets of wealthy CEOs. I'm fighting to fully fund the IRS so it can go after corporations that aren't paying their fair share. https://t.co/brajyiTA28 — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump Administration put lives at risk when it changed the rules to allow discrimination against LGBTQ+ Americans in healthcare. I'm grateful @POTUS has restored these protections. https://t.co/CcUzf7FPmd — PolitiTweet.org

To all moms stretched thin by the pandemic: I see you. As a single mom, there are days I’m not sure how to juggle it all. Politicians should focus on helping working parents, not just expect families to figure it out. More ⬇️ with @MsMagazine. #MothersDay https://t.co/ldSSmpKOQI — PolitiTweet.org

Back in the ’70s and ’80s, Liz Porter could be found chasing my siblings and me on our farm, all while growing her small business and teaching the world to quilt. Her smarts and compassion inspire me everyday. To all the moms out there, happy #MothersDay! https://t.co/7xC0kymrjv — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
I’ve had a lot of childcare providers over the years (far too many for a Twitter post). There’s no way I could’ve juggled work and family without them. To all the childcare workers in this country, thank you. #ChildcareProviderAppreciationDay https://t.co/Wa9nsdev4k — PolitiTweet.org

I'm proud that my proposal to establish a maternal mental health hotline was signed into law last year. I'm continuing to fight for proper funding of this program, which provides support for new moms, tailored to their individual cultural and linguistic needs. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Too often, #BirthingWhileBlack means not having the same access to high-quality health care, including mental health care, as white women. Today, I asked Dr. Jamila Taylor to explain why this is happening, and what the federal government can do to combat it. https://t.co/52alRDMga1 — PolitiTweet.org

Students pursuing college are investing in themselves and strengthening our economy. It’s despicable that scam artists try to take advantage of that. @RepLucyMcBath, @RepMrvan, and I are urging @usedgov to partner with states to crack down on predatory, for-profit universities. https://t.co/RPeAi1jYRv — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
The oil and gas industry gets billions in taxpayer dollars to subsidize their contributions to our economy. But I'm curious... how are these corporations spending on the public good? I invited some CEOs to testify before @NRDems so my colleagues and I can find out. https://t.co/1No2t3Joe8 — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
I've spent my career studying families in bankruptcy. I wrote a textbook on it. So, I was surprised when my colleague said that raising fees on polluters mining on public lands would bankrupt Americans. Charging polluters a fair price doesn't hurt families; it protects taxpayers. https://t.co/oph6OQB37N — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Organ Procurement Organizations (OPOs) are supposed to swiftly retrieve organs from donors. Yet, they're often havens for waste and abuse, in part because they can manipulate data to escape accountability, while vacationing on private jets—literally. I'm calling them out. https://t.co/fPV92Ig96m — PolitiTweet.org

We need to make investments that help our economy grow. By prioritizing policies that help a large swath of Americans—like raising the minimum wage, making childcare more affordable, and establishing a paid leave program—we can create a bigger, stronger economy for all. https://t.co/C3Qgr58WjQ — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Everyone serving in a top government job should be vetted and held accountable to the people. Yet, some previous Administration officials were able to skirt Senate confirmation for months—even years. I'm renewing my push to close the loopholes that allowed this to happen. https://t.co/0JVWC3kj7X — PolitiTweet.org

I remain deeply disturbed by the rise in anti-Asian hate crimes during the pandemic. No one should be targeted because of their heritage. I'll continue standing in solidarity with our AAPI neighbors and speaking out against ignorance and bigotry. — PolitiTweet.org

As we celebrate #AAPIHeritageMonth, I'm thinking about how fortunate we are in California to be enriched by such a thriving and diverse Asian community. I'm grateful for our AAPI friends, neighbors, and colleagues who make Orange County a better place for us all. — PolitiTweet.org

California has experienced record wildfires year after year. While it's crucial that individuals have the tools and resources they need to stay safe, it's imperative the federal government takes bold and urgent action to fight the climate crisis. — PolitiTweet.org
