1. Our public libraries. We are so fortunate to have @ocpublib enriching our communities. Libraries are not just a place to check out books; they also host all sorts of community events and provide a space for members of the community to come together. — PolitiTweet.org

We have to ask ourselves: who benefits from a system in which half of cancer patients have to deplete their lives’ savings to save their lives? — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time for the partisan bickering to stop. Ending violence against women isn’t a Republican issue or a Democratic issue. On Int’l Day to End Violence Against Women, I ask my Senate colleagues to tell women everywhere that they’re still committed to this fight and pass #VAWA. — PolitiTweet.org

Fighting cancer shouldn't have to put you at war with Big Pharma. Orange County patients saw their costs skyrocket—as high as 400 percent—for the exact same chemo. Read my latest on how we can put a stop to this corporate abuse >> https://t.co/w4t7OjbhQC — PolitiTweet.org

@KerrieFinch I couldn’t agree more—it’s past time that Congress take action on gun violence. That’s why I proudly co-sponsored and voted for legislation to require universal background checks and to close the Charleston loophole. They passed the House and sit in the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

I met with healthcare providers in Orange County to hear about their concerns and talk about what we can do at the federal level to be good partners. We should support these hardworking professionals, who just want to do their job and provide top-notch care to patients. https://t.co/pEUK2LzXWu — PolitiTweet.org

This week, I joined House colleagues in passing legislation that would protect healthcare workers from workplace violence. Healthcare and social service workers are *four times more likely* to suffer serious workplace injuries than workers in other sectors. — PolitiTweet.org

Wells Fargo has said that refunding these charges is “the right thing to do for our customers.” While I appreciate that sentiment, I’ve also written to federal bank watchdogs to make sure the Bank keeps its word. https://t.co/VrymfSfHb3 — PolitiTweet.org

According to Wells, refunding these charges is “the right thing to do for our customers.” Though I appreciate that sentiment, I’ve also written to bank regulators to ask that they oversee the refund process and make sure Wells Fargo keeps its word. https://t.co/bTYVFowL9z — PolitiTweet.org

New @WellsFargo CEO Charles Scharf has said that he plans to address the Bank's years of consumer abuses and make things right by Wells customers. I'm asking him to put his money where his mouth is and refund millions of customers the money they're owed. https://t.co/QaiFXAWq13 — PolitiTweet.org

Why? Not only do schools force students to leave, but they also make it incredibly difficult to return to campus. This is the reality for far too many students. I’ve come up with a solution: the Student Mental Health Rights Act. (4/5) — PolitiTweet.org

You don’t want to take time off—and in fact mental health professionals would recommend that sticking to your routine and being surrounded by your friends is best—but you don’t have a choice. You leave school for a semester. But you never return to finish your degree. (3/5) — PolitiTweet.org

Imagine you’re a college student feeling depressed and alone. You don't know where to turn. Finally, you decide to reach out to your school administration for help. Rather than being connected with school resources, you're told you need to take a leave of absence. (2/5) — PolitiTweet.org

Rates of depression and anxiety are skyrocketing on college campuses. Some studies have even estimated that the rate of students with depression has doubled in the last ten years. Let’s talk about this. (THREAD) — PolitiTweet.org

I've heard from people of all political stripes that healthcare is one of their top concerns, so today at a hearing, I drilled down on a simple question: does the involvement of private equity in healthcare improve patient outcomes? https://t.co/22u6wQk9TB — PolitiTweet.org

I led a bipartisan effort of 82 Representatives last week to call for adequate funds for a program to assist survivors in safely sheltering their pets when they leave abusers. This would empower survivors by giving them the tools to keep their pets safe. https://t.co/fcbP6N2JLk — PolitiTweet.org

Incidents of domestic violence and the choice to leave one’s abuser are often some of the scariest moments in a survivor’s life. They can be made worse by the presence of a beloved family pet—approximately 34% of survivors are torn between escaping abuse and leaving a pet behind. — PolitiTweet.org

Because following the Trump tax law, nearly three dozen large companies reported a 0% or less effective tax rate. FedEx’s <0% tax rate means we owed them money. And policy that puts corporate special interests before working families is bad policy. (6/6) https://t.co/UhyI1SOcHa — PolitiTweet.org
