The OPO serving my constituents in Orange County, OneLegacy, reported an organ recovery rate of 69% between 2012 and 2014. In reality, a new study found that the organization only recovered 31%. The neighboring OPO serving San Diego recovered 65% more donor organs. (3/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Until recently, the only data we had about the performance of OPOs was self-reported, because the agency tasked with oversight never established accurate and appropriate reporting policies. Yes, we let a bunch of regional monopolies police themselves. What could go wrong? (2/7) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
Let's talk about organ procurement organizations (OPOs), which are responsible for evaluating and securing organs from those who have decided to donate. The U.S. has 58 OPOs, each one being a regional monopoly. I recently did some digging on OPOs. Here’s what I learned: (THREAD) — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why I fought for additional support for a program to protect Medicare recipients from fraud. It’s time for the Senate to keep this commitment and do its job. Read more about my amendment, which the House adopted on a broad bipartisan basis >> https://t.co/oxbJO2dHyN — PolitiTweet.org

Scam artists are continuing to target older Americans to make a quick buck, and it’s taxpayers who are picking up the tab. We’ve got to put an end to this. — PolitiTweet.org

.@RepMikeLevin and I introduced a bill this week to right this wrong. It extends the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program to workers at VSOs, honoring those who work hard every day to support our veterans. https://t.co/SbMqpJiYz2 — PolitiTweet.org

Professionals at Veteran Service Organizations dedicate their careers to helping our veterans understand and claim the benefits they’re owed, but under current law, they’re not eligible for the same benefits that other public service workers receive. That’s unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Shoutout to @IRWDnews for winning a national award for innovation in water conservation. Water shortages are real here in California - and present a grave threat to our families. Irvine is doing a lot to protect our resources for the next generation. https://t.co/Nmynt0U588 — PolitiTweet.org

11 years ago today, the Mental Health Parity & Addiction Equity Act became law, but its promise remains unfulfilled. That's why I introduced legislation that would finally ensure mental health services are covered just like any other type of medical care. https://t.co/3ZgoB0RgIW — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
A watchdog report found that these public servants had to face unnecessary hostility and pointless paperwork to try to access the relief we promised them. So I sent a letter demanding answers on why @usedgov has been making these hardworking Americans jump through so many hoops. https://t.co/RTmzjyBtkJ — PolitiTweet.org

Congress created a program in 2007 to provide debt relief for public service workers. @BetsyDeVosED has denied 99% of applications. It's a slap in the face to the firefighters, nurses, first responders, and teachers who have dedicated their careers to helping their communities. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a problem I plan to tackle with the College Affordability Caucus, which I founded to address the barriers students face in trying to pursue an education. The skyrocketing cost of college and the predatory student loan industry/student debt crisis are also on the agenda. — PolitiTweet.org

To be clear, clerical mistakes should *never* prevent a student from receiving the aid they deserve. But until we simplify tax forms and the FAFSA application, these problems will continue to arise. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
🚨🚨 ALERT 🚨🚨 Students filing for federal financial aid this year: double-check before you submit your FAFSA apps. Some information isn’t being automatically populated in the form; you need to enter it manually or risk not receiving aid. https://t.co/R3tyPLZMTw — PolitiTweet.org

After a recent inquiry about a constituent's Global Entry application, CBP asked me to "refrain from requesting additional updates." That's asking me not do part of my job. But it won't deter me from cutting through red tape for the people of CA-45. https://t.co/HfGln0GEU7 — PolitiTweet.org

If you are a veteran in crisis, or are concerned about one, free, confidential support is available. The Veterans Crisis Line can be reached at 1-800-273-8255. — PolitiTweet.org

As I’ve said time and again, we’ve got to match words with action. I also fought for an amendment to add funds to staff the Veterans Crisis Line in the spending bill that later passed the full House. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Katie Porter @RepKatiePorter
In Congress, we must work harder to protect those who have fought to protect us. That’s why I worked to secure bipartisan language in House-passed legislation that would require those calling the Veterans Crisis Line to get an immediate response from a trained individual. — PolitiTweet.org
