The Senate version has 53 cosponsors. Both bills are supported by many employers, schools, and other stakeholders. Its appeal spreads across the political spectrum–unlike most things in Washington these days–and will help put borrowers on a better path to success. — PolitiTweet.org

Big news: Our bipartisan bill with @RodneyDavis, the Employer Participation in Repayment Act, hit over 200 co-sponsors this week. It would encourage employers to offer student loan repayment assistance as an employee benefit. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
75 percent of workplace violence in the U.S. is directed at doctors, nurses, social workers, and other caregivers. We passed the Workplace Violence Prevention for Health Care and Social Service Workers Act to reduce the risk of violence in these jobs. https://t.co/DsQtkz27ri — PolitiTweet.org

Helped pass the Shark Fin Sales Elimination Act to ban the possession or sale of shark fins and related products. While shark finning is illegal in U.S. waters, fins can still be bought and sold throughout much of the country. — PolitiTweet.org

I joined 132 of my Democratic colleagues to urge @senatemajldr to hold a vote on the Bipartisan Background Check Act of 2019 and the Enhanced Background Checks Act of 2019. We just witnessed more tragic shootings this week. The Senate must honor them with action. https://t.co/FyfgTXiUMu — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
I voted to pass the Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act in @EnergyCommerce to move nuclear waste away from San Onofre and other communities across America. We need smarter storage options that protect our communities and the environment. https://t.co/r0icTiWXjC — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
Latina women have the largest pay gap compared to non-Hispanic white men. It's outrageous they have to work over 11 months more to receive the same pay. The Senate must pass the #PaycheckFairnessAct to end the wage gap once and for all. #LatinaEqualPayDay https://t.co/sZiJ7pgQGY — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
This year we’ve lost at least 23 transgender Americans to anti-trans hate, violence, and bigotry. Discrimination has no place in our country. We must honor these victims by championing respect and equality for all. #TransgenderDayOfRemembrance https://t.co/4yuhW1FSvy — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
The worst place for storing spent nuclear fuel is near the ocean. We have to move it away from SONGS and other bodies of water. I support the Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act which allows for both interim storage and a permanent repository at Yucca Mountain in Nevada. 📺: https://t.co/9h8MW9aKxY — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
If we're going to add to the national debt, it should be for investments that bring a return like infrastructure, job training, and research. It should not be a tax cut for the wealthy, especially now when our economy is strong. 📺 Watch in @HouseBudgetDems: https://t.co/DoQToZQQTk — PolitiTweet.org

#TeamPeters joined San Diego's Thai American Chamber of Commerce and @ThaiCGLA to celebrate Loi Krathong, or the "festival of light," which symbolizes new beginnings. https://t.co/5w83ue1btx — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
#TeamPeters participated in @GPS_UCSD's Pride and Policy panel. We shared insight on being LGBTQ and working on federal policy, how we overcome adversity and prejudice from people who disagree on LGBTQ issues, and how we're working toward a more equal society for all. https://t.co/fCgDca7Vvm — PolitiTweet.org

The EPA estimated that the rule would prevent the release of 170,000 to 180,000 tons of methane into the atmosphere. It would protect our environment and improve public health. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
We also need to regulate methane at the federal level. Our bill, the Super Pollutants Act of 2019 codifies the EPA methane rule for new sources and would also regulate existing sources if industry efforts do not decrease methane emissions by 40% below 2012 levels. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
Leaks from natural gas pipelines account for one third of U.S. methane emissions, which is one of the worst contributors to global warming. The SAFER Pipelines Act preserves EPA's methane rule to cut new source emissions from the oil and gas industry. https://t.co/kP9bECwzy0 — PolitiTweet.org

Last month, @EximBankUS financed $316,394.27 in exports from CA-52. This investment helps small businesses reach new markets, create jobs, and grow our local economy. https://t.co/e3ilNQQjyG — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
This short-term spending bill avoids a shutdown—for now—and invests in priorities that will help San Diegans, like a pay raise for our service members and funding for Community Health Centers. Still, we must prioritize long-term, responsible budgeting. https://t.co/W2zhbUgnAG — PolitiTweet.org

Just weeks after an American family was slaughtered by drug cartels in Mexico, the last thing we should be doing is making it easier for cartels to get firearms. The @StateDept has the best resources to ensure firearms don't end up in the wrong hands. https://t.co/mKDXhGIuIt — PolitiTweet.org

The @DeptVetAffairs estimates 1,500 veterans would be newly eligible for HUD-VASH vouchers under our bill. I look forward to the bill coming to the House floor soon, so we get chronically homeless veterans the housing and mental health services they need. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
HUD-VASH has successfully connected chronically homeless veterans with the resources they need to get back on their feet. Unfortunately, veterans with an other-than-honorable discharge or who served less than 24 months are not eligible for the program. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
Our bill, the Veteran HOUSE Act, passed @FSCDems. It would make veterans discharged under conditions other-than-honorable, but not dishonorable, eligible for HUD-VASH vouchers. https://t.co/F7pTkop8Ih — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
As we face this great challenge, I'm for the policy approaches that might become law. There's no time to waste. We need to work now to save our planet. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
The @NewDemCoalition formally endorsed 12 bills, seven of which are bipartisan. It's part of a plan to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 at the latest and address the climate crisis with the rapid urgency it demands. https://t.co/nVPLGpvLKY — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
The #ClimatePlaybook lays out over 90 bills authored by Democrats and Republicans, most of which have bipartisan support. Many have already passed their committees of jurisdiction and some have passed the House. https://t.co/s7Gbb5Pcky — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
@ClimateCrisis We have some great opportunities as more Republicans acknowledge climate change is real and see its effects on their communities. That's why I've been looking for bipartisan climate bills that have already been introduced. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Scott Peters @RepScottPeters
@ClimateCrisis Great challenges like fighting climate change to save the planet are not won by one political party. They are won with national unity and consensus. We need to work together now if we want our children and our grandchildren to have a habitable planet. — PolitiTweet.org
