Today let’s hit the trails, then tomorrow let’s demand the Administration do more to keep public lands in public hands. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy #NationalPublicLandsDay! We are so blessed to have beautiful public lands right here in our district like Whiting Ranch and the San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary, where I hosted an environmental roundtable, and gorgeous national parks like Joshua Tree a short drive away. https://t.co/57IZ78EHwi — PolitiTweet.org

I encourage everyone to read this article. When the Trump Admin is more interested in "political optics" than in making healthcare more affordable, the result is that the American people lose out. No one should be playing politics with people's healthcare. https://t.co/EkApsYjobW — PolitiTweet.org

I wasn’t able to use my teaching device in the hearing, but for the Americans following along at home, I put together a bingo board you can use whenever you hear excuses from the corporate special interests. https://t.co/TAEJCqMMRB — PolitiTweet.org

Debt collectors today use the exact same excuses I heard from mortgage lenders in the years leading up to the financial crisis, and we know how that turned out. We can’t let this corporate abuse continue to go unchecked. I explained in a hearing today⬇️ https://t.co/xS2trZl8vO — PolitiTweet.org

@CFPBDirector I was proud that 65 of my colleagues joined me in sounding the alarm on @CFPB failing to protecting consumers yet again. We write in the letter: “Abusive debt collection practices are the marker of an unjust society.” https://t.co/OlrumBw52A — PolitiTweet.org

When I announced my position on impeachment, I promised OC families that I would continue to work on issues that matter to them. So today I sent a letter to @CFPBDirector to call out her rollback of protections that prevent abusive debt collectors from harassing Americans. https://t.co/kOxmGH2WIE — PolitiTweet.org

I also introduced a bipartisan-supported amendment to ensure new banks and credit unions are guaranteed the same protections when servicing marijuana businesses. Read more about my work to level the playing field in the legal cannabis industry >> https://t.co/NWEmDFk6M3 — PolitiTweet.org

CA spoke clearly when we voted to legalize adult use of marijuana, but existing federal regulations have created confusion for financial institutions and legal cannabis businesses in our state. Proud to support a bipartisan bill today to fix this. https://t.co/IwyPATJ8Y6 — PolitiTweet.org

In far too many sexual assault cases, the perpetrator will never be held accountable. Leaving these kits shelved is a failure to those survivors & to individuals who may be assaulted by the same perpetrator while the information to protect them is ignored. We can & must do more. — PolitiTweet.org

Welcomed @netflix's #Unbelievable team to discuss the need to clear the rape kit backlog, an effort I'm proud to lead the fight to increase funding for. It's unacceptable that after an invasive, often traumatic collection process, survivors’ DNA kits are shelved indefinitely. https://t.co/xmLwX2FLF2 — PolitiTweet.org

As I said in June, I believe that a formal impeachment investigation is necessary to protect our republic and its national security. The American people deserve to see the evidence, and today is a step forward in that direction. — PolitiTweet.org

Capitalism doesn’t work if people can’t make informed decisions about where to put their money. I questioned a top official today who previously called supporters of corporate disclosure (of info like their environmental impact or gender diversity) “shrill” and “self-righteous.” https://t.co/4OmGAvmdio — PolitiTweet.org

This is rich. After trying to roll back CA’s emissions standards, the Admin is now threatening to withhold highway funds, supposedly over “air quality.” Is this the President’s #InfrastructureWeek? OC families deserve better than these petty attacks. https://t.co/aXauTrlKeO — PolitiTweet.org

My constituent Michael Nguyen, an American citizen, has been imprisoned in Vietnam for over 14 months. This week, I went to a @HouseForeign hearing, which is not my committee, to secure State’s commitment to continue advocating for Michael. We need to bring Michael home to OC. https://t.co/dcQDFm3swq — PolitiTweet.org

These predatory agreements favor corporate interests and hurt families in #CA45. I was proud to vote for the #FAIRAct today, which would put an end to forced arbitration clauses. Watch me explain to Mr. Monopoly why this is good for consumers and workers: https://t.co/PtW7eMIcFC — PolitiTweet.org

Forced arbitration agreements take away the right to seek justice in our courts from consumers who get cheated and workers who are harassed. And 81 of the 100 biggest corporations in America sneak these clauses into the fine print of their contracts. https://t.co/Ts8L8jVtFq — PolitiTweet.org

I spent a lot of time under waves, rather than on top. And I "drank" some ocean water, which made me double down on fighting pollution. (Okay, this thread does have a bit of politics/policy, but keep reading; I promise it’s worth it!) (6/9) — PolitiTweet.org
