“Around the beginning of the first World War, Juan Moré joined a co-op of bakers and cigar makers to open three bakeries in the Cuban neighborhood of Ybor City. The first, La Primera, burned down in the 1950s. The third, La Tercera, went out of business. But La Segunda survived.” — PolitiTweet.org

In these tough times, it’s good to look to strong neighbors &institutions that've survived throughout the years – depression, world war and even today’s global pandemic. Tampa neighbors, let’s celebrate &draw strength from La Segunda! La Segunda survives! https://t.co/A8oenTyNLw — PolitiTweet.org

In true #Tampa fashion, #HometownHeroes with the pirate Crewe of Bobbie C. Davis surrendered a bounty of supplies to @MetroMinistries to continue their service to many of our neighbors in need during the #coronavirus pandemic. Thanks for your great work!🏴‍☠️ https://t.co/OlWKhumAm2 — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks @FeedingTampaBay for ensuring our neighbors don't go hungry. #CARESAct aid helped, but more must be done. The House-passed #HeroesAct would expand #SNAP for families to buy groceries rather than rely on donations. We havent heard much from the Senate & time is running out. https://t.co/hAAkyPCe1E — PolitiTweet.org

Instead, I am pressing for another direct cash assistance payment, more unemployment help, funds for schools and local communities, and a comprehensive plan to control the virus and supply chains. Let me know what you think and stay safe. https://t.co/xoCTWK6Zd9 — PolitiTweet.org

Payroll tax cuts harm the Medicare and Social Security trust funds that we need to provide health care and basic support. Plus, if you have lost your job due to coronavirus, you will not benefit from a payroll tax cut. — PolitiTweet.org

US Rep Kathy Castor @USRepKCastor

#COVID19 aid provided to communities, schools & furloughed workers is running out. The House passed the #HeroesAct to provide another round of aid, but we have been waiting for the Senate & President to weigh in. Now Trump is digging in his heels & insisting on a payroll tax cut. — PolitiTweet.org

Attn @SenateGOP + @Senatemajldr 👉unemployment claims nearly doubled last week as the clock ticks down & $600/wk in #CARESAct unemp benefits expire on 7/31 The House took action in May to extend this lifeline- families need you to join us in aiding them. https://t.co/wl4tOCKqFx — PolitiTweet.org

The #CARESAct provided @GoHART w resources they need to protect their frontline employees &ensure #Tampa neighbors & heroes can get to work. That was months ago&we need another round of emergency aid. The House has done its part thru the #HeroesAct.. where the heck is the Senate? https://t.co/kjNBQxtjel — PolitiTweet.org
