This is exactly the kind of obfuscation that warrants immediate investigation by Congress. We voted last week to allow remote hearings—let’s get to work. — PolitiTweet.org

The #HeroesAct doesn't use the approach that would best help Americans out of work, but I know that our states, local governments, and frontline workers cannot wait for federal help. I explained on the House floor ⬇️ https://t.co/1pSNBNOIbe — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

It's true: I wake up every day looking for someone to oversee. But Congress still hasn't made full use of our institutional oversight mechanisms yet to get accountability during this pandemic. This is something I'll keep pushing on. https://t.co/abuwAV1Xk6 — PolitiTweet.org

Loved hanging with @desusnice & @THEKIDMERO on @SHODesusAndMero. Catch it tonight on #SHOWTIME! https://t.co/as13HdBiAa — PolitiTweet.org

Last year when Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was in front of @FSCDems, I called on him to look out for the wellbeing of his company's content moderators. WATCH >> https://t.co/0TpqSIEduT — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

This is a welcome step in getting justice for Facebook's content moderators. As I've done before, I will continue to hold the company accountable for treating workers with respect and dignity. https://t.co/gNq7sDcUSi — PolitiTweet.org

I know from experience that when we give tax dollars directly to companies, there’s the potential for corporate abuse. Read my op-ed in @NBCNewsTHINK in which I explain why transparency requirements for the Paycheck Protection Program are a must. https://t.co/abl35Wk9oV — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

The coronavirus is attacking our capitalist economy; the #PaycheckGuaranteeAct helps preserve it. It avoids expanding government by allowing our businesses to keep workers on payroll, which will reduce administrative costs and allow government to focus on public health. — PolitiTweet.org

This is exactly what I've been saying, and it's why I wrote to the Federal Reserve and @stevenmnuchin1 last week to get answers. If they don't need this money, the American people should get it back. https://t.co/y7ZNYFPzM7 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

A new whistleblower report shows that our tax dollars aren't being used to find cures or shore up the national stockpile. Taxpayer funds are going right into the pockets of Big Pharma, all thanks to their lobbyists. I’m demanding answers. ⬇️⬇️ https://t.co/uB0MPDDVZP — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Despite being under investigation for defrauding taxpayers to the tune of hundreds of millions, Blue Flame Medical continues to lie about whether it can provide urgently needed PPE to frontline workers. @RepRaskin and I are calling on the @FTC to put an immediate stop to this. https://t.co/nTJ6ivWkaJ — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

For over a year, we haven't had a permanent, Senate-confirmed Secretary at @DHSgov. This has hampered our coronavirus preparedness and response. I've introduced legislation that would restore public accountability for top administration officials. https://t.co/1fjbiDiqgy — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I have been proud to advocate for the PAWS Act, which helps domestic violence survivors with pets leave their abusers, in coronavirus aid legislation. Now that we've strengthened this critical program, we must fight to renew the Violence Against Women Act. #VAWA — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Accountability isn’t just about asking questions; you have to follow through. That means I don’t back down when I fight. Just ask my kids what happens when they don’t do their chores! https://t.co/27ZWcG3n3v — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

On #MothersDay this year, let’s celebrate the creativity and resilience of our moms, many of whom are juggling work and family in challenging ways during this pandemic. Moms, let’s allow ourselves a breather today (because you know we’ll have to be right back at it tomorrow)! — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Would we pay troops less in the middle of a war? No. Would private equity firms choose to pay doctors less during a pandemic? They already did. @SenWarren and I are calling this out, and we won’t back down. Read our letter ⬇️⬇️ https://t.co/r4L1y24abd — PolitiTweet.org

Today is #ChildrensMentalHealthDay. I brought @chocchildrens Chief Psychologist Dr. Heather Huszti as my guest to the State of the Union this year to highlight why this issue is so important. As #Covid_19 highlights the flaws in our healthcare system, we must stay on this. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

In March, the Administration insisted on a $500B slush fund for the largest corporations. Over a month later, $454B appears to remain unspent. So is this money not needed or are those who need help not getting it? I’m pressing @stevenmnuchin1 and the @federalreserve to find out. https://t.co/lrcn5ryWmQ — PolitiTweet.org

I’m joining @theappeal shortly for a discussion on oversight and why it’s important. Tune in ⬇️⬇️ https://t.co/Y83Qq0kZyi — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

Beyond N95 masks, ventilators, and PPE, the Administration’s focus is on securing testing ingredients. What we learned on the call: so far, only $200M of the $1B allocated for DPA orders has been used. This is unacceptable, and I'll keep the pressure on. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter

I’ve been consistent in calling for transparency about the President’s use of the Defense Production Act since March 23rd. Today, in a bipartisan briefing, I pressed @FEMA and @DeptofDefense for details on the orders the Administration has placed for PPE, ventilators, and more. — PolitiTweet.org
