Freedom to be Safe from Harm: Invest an additional $750 million in local- and state-based child abuse prevention and prosecution. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Freedom from Hunger: Enhance automatic certification of more children for school meal programs and increase retroactive reimbursement of school meals for eligible children not initially covered. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Freedom to Learn: Invest an additional $25 billion in child care and early learning programs like Head Start to cover all eligible 3–5 year old children, and a permanent expansion of the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit to help working families cover the cost of child care. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Freedom to be Economically Secure: Permanent expansion of the #ChildTaxCredit and the creation of children's savings accounts, seeded annually with $500 in federal contributions, for kids in families earning under $100,000. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Freedom to be Healthy: Every child would be automatically enrolled in Medicaid from birth through age 18 (parents would have the option to opt out for private insurance). — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Last week, I introduced the Five Freedoms for America's Children Act, a comprehensive proposal that would ensure every child in America has the support they need to reach their full potential. https://t.co/CyfFjhARKj Here's a quick breakdown 🧵 https://t.co/FA2Yntcq1L — PolitiTweet.org

9 million Americans would see lower health insurance premiums as a result of @POTUS' #BuildBackBetter framework — that's on top of the millions who would gain coverage through the Affordable Care Act's premium tax credits. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The right to vote is the bedrock of our democracy. Attacks on the right to vote, from closing polling places in predominantly minority neighborhoods to unnecessary voter roll purges, are attacks on American democracy itself. The Senate has a moral duty to stop these attacks. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The #BetterCareBetterJobs Act would allow millions of seniors and people with disabilities to receive high-quality care in their homes. These services allow millions to live independent lives in their communities. We must get this done. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

More people qualify for health insurance than ever before. Whether you are uninsured or looking for a new, quality plan at a lower cost, visit https://t.co/KfOKVvokmq. This Open Enrollment period is for you. #GetCovered — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

This summer, I called for the revitalization of the 1930s-era Civilian Conservation Corps to help us tackle climate change & create well-paying jobs. @POTUS’ #BuildBackBetter framework would implement this proposal through the creation of the Civilian Climate Corps. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

That starts with the passage of the #BuildBackBetter Act so we can spur new energy technologies while boosting the competitiveness of existing industries like steel, cement and aluminum. It puts us on the path to a prosperous, net-zero future. #COP26 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Like President Biden, I believe taking decisive action on climate change will create millions of good-paying jobs, restore the health of our communities and cement the United States’ global leadership in clean energy technology. #COP26 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

As I said during today's congressional #COP26 panel, climate change is both a danger to our communities right now and the wellbeing of our children, our children's children and beyond. We have a moral responsibility to act now. Not later — now. https://t.co/LWCKJVYKiw — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

I stand with the teachers & paraprofessionals of @sftlocal1147. For too long, Scranton educators have sacrificed to ensure our children get a quality education, even spending money out of their own pockets to buy supplies. Our educators—and our children—deserve more. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act is the single-largest investment in our Nation’s infrastructure in generations. Pennsylvania alone will see $11.3 billion for roads, $1.6 billion for bridges, $2.8 billion for public transit and more.  Folks, BIF is a BFD. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

TUNE IN NOW: I’m joining @SenatorCardin, @SenatorCarper and several of my colleagues at #COP26 for a discussion on how Congress can advance U.S. leadership in #ClimateAction. https://t.co/eiK575ziV3 — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the American Rescue Plan, 4/5 of consumers can find health care coverage for $10 or less per month. Visit https://t.co/KfOKVvokmq today to #GetCovered. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The average home care worker is only paid $12 an hour. Simply put, that's unacceptable. My #BetterCareBetterJobs Act would raise their wages while expanding home and community-based services for seniors and people with disabilities. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

As @POTUS said, the #BuildBackBetter Act, together with the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, would give millions of American families extra “breathing room” as the economy continues to improve and we end the pandemic. We need both and we need them now. https://t.co/3DvmRa3H6p — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

We can boost our economy ⬆️ while cutting greenhouse gas emissions ⬇️ with the President’s #BuildBackBetter framework. @POTUS’ plan invests in clean energy technology, tax credits and R&D. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

The PRO Act would put power back into the hands of workers by penalizing employers who infringe on workers’ rights. After decades of corporations chipping away at worker’s rights, America's working men and women need and deserve this protection. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

My #BetterCareBetterJobs Act would help the 820,000 seniors and people with disabilities on Medicaid waitlists find the quality home care they need. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

With the #BuildBackBetter plan, Pennsylvania workers will have expanded access to job training programs that would help them in fields like manufacturing, public health, clean energy, IT and more. It’s an investment in America’s workforce. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

Thanks to action by @POTUS and Senate and House Democrats, the unemployment rate reached 4.6% two years ahead of projections. Two years. This is what it means to #BuildBackBetter. — PolitiTweet.org

OTD in 1968, Shirley Chisholm became the first African American woman to be elected to Congress. She was a trailblazer who would go on to become the first African American & first woman to seek the nomination for President four years later. May her legacy continue to inspire. https://t.co/3ZXkO1bXy2 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey

An investment in home & community-based services for seniors & people with disabilities comes down to a simple fact: the greatest country in the world should have the greatest home care in the world. My #BetterCareBetterJobs Act would bring these services to millions more people. — PolitiTweet.org
