While the CARES Act provides student loan relief for most Americans, nearly 2 million borrowers with Perkins loans are ineligible and left hurting. Yesterday, I introduced bipartisan legislation that would extend these much-needed relief measures to recipients of Perkins loans. — PolitiTweet.org

.@tenethealth has been accused of grossly overcharging Medicare, yet it's received nearly $1 billion in COVID relief funds and $91 million in new tax benefits. Corporations shouldn't be able to scam Americans, then pocket our tax dollars. (3/3) https://t.co/O2FVyqNhqc — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

In 2018, @primehealthserv paid $65 million to settle allegations that it overcharged Medicare. In 2020, the corporation received $600 million in taxpayer-funded COVID relief. Meanwhile, working Americans received a one-time $1,200 payment. (2/3) https://t.co/LW3n1OsL9b — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I'm not afraid to call out corporations that are taking advantage of hardworking Americans and vulnerable patients, especially during a pandemic that has left millions without work and small businesses struggling. And when I do, I make sure I have the receipts. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump Administration announced yesterday that #PPP data will be made public. This is a welcome step, but we need details on whether this information will be online, searchable, and regularly updated. As I told @SRuhle this week: until we see the data, I’m staying on this. https://t.co/EcFHYURHJ4 — PolitiTweet.org

@sandylocks Thank you for sharing your expertise with us in today's hearing; I know this labor is difficult. You have a partner in Congress who is committed to using education as a tool to work towards a more just future for everyone. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I say this as someone who has pushed for oversight of COVID relief from the start: this news is a big win for American taxpayers. Now, to get real accountability, we need a commitment that this data be online, searchable, and regularly updated. And make the initial release soon. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Today is #Juneteenth, a significant day in our country for Black Americans. But most people know nothing about what this day means. So I asked @sandylocks, Executive Director of @AAPolicyForum, about how we can educate ourselves and our kids about our nation's ugly past. https://t.co/AbO4SsyRT0 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Surprise, surprise—@SecAzar has been giving relief funds to healthcare companies backed by private equity while community hospitals struggle. His Wall Street buddies don't need our taxpayer dollars. @BillPascrell, @rosadelauro, and I want answers. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I was recently billed for a COVID test I received in March, and I've heard countless stories from other Americans being charged. Today, I'm following up yet again with @CDCDirector about why testing still hasn't been made free for every American. https://t.co/uqPJSWG9io — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

When you make a promise to the American people, you have to keep it. @CDCDirector, you said testing would be free; you can't just slither away to avoid facing the thousands of Americans who are getting bills now. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Not good enough. We don't need discussion; we need the data. https://t.co/oBjXTzPfeH — PolitiTweet.org

@clairec345 @ratemyskyperoom I grew up in a kitchen with harvest gold appliances. When I complained to my mom, she said, “Be thankful; it’s better than avocado.” 🥑 — PolitiTweet.org

This week, Secretary Mnuchin claimed that he couldn't release data about $650B in federal small business grants because it's "proprietary" and "confidential." As a law professor, I give this argument an F. @SenKamalaHarris and I explain why he's wrong and demand transparency >> https://t.co/qjRrYDjgse — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, @RepSpeier and I wrote in @lawfareblog opposing the Administration's effort to roll back lobbying rules for retired generals. Today, we're sending a letter to the Pentagon with @JoaquinCastrotx and @RepDeanPhillips to demand answers on this proposal to fill the swamp. https://t.co/9jvkoTAvMu — PolitiTweet.org

Working across the aisle, I've signed on to co-sponsor the Ending Qualified Immunity Act by @justinamash and @RepPressley. This bill removes a major barrier for victims seeking justice and holds police officers accountable to the people they serve. — PolitiTweet.org

76 days ago, the Congressional Oversight Commission was created to monitor the $500B coronavirus bailout, but it still doesn't have a chair. As I said at a hearing I led yesterday: "It has been too long already; we cannot afford to continue waiting." https://t.co/OVirWUeu8K — PolitiTweet.org
