I was so excited to meet with the First Lady of Iceland @elizajreid and Icelandic Ambassador @BEllertsdottir this morning to discuss all things gender equity! They share the same commitment to women's leadership as myself and the entire Bipartisan Women’s Caucus. https://t.co/Miva1Q15Ry — PolitiTweet.org

I’m proud to have voted for the #CROWNAct, which would ban discrimination against Black women and girls based on how their hair naturally grows out of their heads. Make no mistake, discrimination against Black hair is a form of racism. And racism is not welcome in our country. https://t.co/atjQTYzxAP — PolitiTweet.org

Today's #WomensHistoryMonth spotlight is Jevona Watson, owner of the @DetroitSip! Jevona's mission was to "unite the community one sip at a time," and I think she's done just that. Detroit Sip is just one of the many incredible businesses revitalizing #MI14's local economy. https://t.co/iKzLYcFnkZ — PolitiTweet.org

As a 30-year vet of the @USPS, I was proud to join @SpeakerPelosi and my congressional colleagues for the bill enrollment ceremony of the Postal Service Reform Act. One step closer to the President's desk for his signature. https://t.co/7Vek8Q55Mo — PolitiTweet.org

At 2 million strong, women veterans make up the largest and fastest-growing cohort of the veteran population. During #WomensHistoryMonth, we celebrate the contributions generations of women have made to our armed forces since our country's founding. https://t.co/JcF6iuo0ZO — PolitiTweet.org

I fought hard to pass a budget that reflects the needs & priorities of Michiganders. I’m proud to say that this bill includes all 10 Community Project Funding Requests for #MI14 which will strengthen our water systems, support hospitals & small biz, and improve community spaces. https://t.co/5AiJ1xUUq6 — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago today, a gunman sought out 3 Asian-owned spas in Atlanta where he killed 8 people, including 6 Asian women. It was an act of hate, and one of over 11,000 anti-Asian hate incidents since the pandemic started. We must unite to reject xenophobia and #StopAsianHate https://t.co/27sAZLm7km — PolitiTweet.org

I was honored to join @POTUS for the reauthorization of the #ViolenceAgainstWomenAct. There is nothing partisan or political about ending domestic violence. VAWA gives survivors the support they need and deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

It's 2022, women should be paid equally to men. Period. It's far past time for the Senate to pass the #PaycheckFairnessAct.https://t.co/a0ytlT2bab — PolitiTweet.org

I had an amazing time celebrating #WomensHistoryMonth with @POTUS, @FLOTUS, and my congressional colleagues this evening! Grateful that we have an Administration that’s focused on supporting and lifting up women and girls across the country. https://t.co/y9ebMbhDPB — PolitiTweet.org

For every $1 paid to white men, women make 83 cents on average. It's even worse for women of color: 🔘Latinas: 49 cents 🔘Native American women: 50 cents 🔘Black women: 58 cents 🔘White women: 71 cents 🔘AAPI women: 75 cents #EqualPayDay https://t.co/QlYLEcTspn — PolitiTweet.org

I joined @SpeakerPelosi, @SecMartyWalsh, @RepSpeier, and equal pay advocates at the #EqualPayDay press conf to call on the Senate to pass the #PaycheckFairnessAct.

March 15 marks #EqualPayDay. This is how far into the year women must work to earn what men made last year. It’s outrageous.  Women are paid 83¢ for every $1 men make & it's worse for women of color. The Senate needs to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act. Equal pay for equal work. — PolitiTweet.org
