The American people deserve to know how their taxpayer dollars are being spent. There needs to be accountability that medical products are being produced at the best possible price and that wealthy corporations aren’t cutting corners to profit off the pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

The federal government has awarded billions of taxpayer dollars to companies working to tackle COVID-19. Many of these taxpayer-funded contracts have details that have been kept secret, so @SenWarren and I are calling on the Administration to release them. https://t.co/n4ed4h8Z5O — PolitiTweet.org

Congress should prioritize the needs of the American people, not big corporations. As I told @SRuhle, it’s critical we extend pandemic unemployment assistance and provide funding to our state and local governments—not give corporations immunity for not protecting their workers. https://t.co/UTr271ZsBU — PolitiTweet.org

Twelve years ago, Congress mandated that insurance companies treat mental health care the same as physical care. Yet, insurers continue to flout the law—so I introduced a bill to crack down on this abuse. @Scott_Wiener and I explain why this matters ⤵️ https://t.co/tLFdhiNeGP — PolitiTweet.org

California census officials estimated that an incomplete count could cost our state ~$1,000 per person annually. I'm thrilled to share that our district had the highest self-response rate in all of CA—a feat that will help ensure our community gets the resources we need. — PolitiTweet.org

As we celebrate #AmericanEducationWeek, I’m thinking about the millions of teachers working tirelessly during this pandemic. We owe them not only our appreciation but also action. Schools need the federal government to step up and provide resources to keep teachers and kids safe. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why I introduced the Freedom from Price Gouging Act to protect patients from unreasonable price hikes. The House passed my bill along with other measures to reduce prescription drug prices *nearly a year ago,* but the Senate refuses to act. — PolitiTweet.org

Too often, Americans with diabetes have to ration their insulin due to skyrocketing costs. Big Pharma’s greed is putting lives at risk, and it’s past time for the federal government to take meaningful action to reduce prescription drug prices. #WorldDiabetesDay — PolitiTweet.org

Yet, the Fed used COVID relief funding to purchase $1.3 billion of Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). ETFs are baskets of stocks, similar to mutual funds, and they contain billions of Wall Street's debt. (3/5) https://t.co/q2vORsOE8A — PolitiTweet.org

The Fed explicitly stated that COVID relief funds would not help “insured depository institutions”—aka banks. That makes sense, since many of those banks have had record profits during the coronavirus pandemic. And we just bailed them out in 2008-2009. (2/5) https://t.co/VoUiR2wNsS — PolitiTweet.org

In March, Congress gave billions in COVID relief to the @federalreserve to help struggling businesses. The Fed pledged these taxpayer dollars would *not* bail out Wall Street banks. They went back on their word—to the tune of 2 billion dollars. So I'm calling them out. (THREAD) — PolitiTweet.org

Women have disproportionately felt the economic burden of this pandemic, with many working moms dropping out of the workforce or reducing their hours to care for their kids. It’s clear we must invest in childcare to get our economy back on track. https://t.co/vk3QyZ7p3j — PolitiTweet.org
