Some are arguing that women don’t face pay discrimination. This is nonsense and ridiculous. The gender and racial wage gaps are real. Today, the House is correcting this injustice by passing the #PaycheckFairnessAct. — PolitiTweet.org

The Biden-Harris administration’s budget request for @HHSgov lays out a genuine plan for how to improve the lives of millions of Americans. Watch my hearing with @AppropsDems today at 10 AM: ➡ https://t.co/BXbSL1bSd0 https://t.co/oxC3IxVRqp — PolitiTweet.org

The opposition to voter suppression bills continues to grow. I'm proud that Michigan business leaders are speaking out against tactics aimed at making it harder for people to vote. We need more of this. https://t.co/9eKt81urcQ — PolitiTweet.org

This is heartbreaking. Sam Cipriano was a Detroit icon who fiercely loved his family and business. You could see it in the quality of his famous potato chips—better made than the rest. Sending my prayers to his loved ones and Better Made family. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m excited that @RepSylviaGarcia has joined our @HouseDemWomen leadership team! Looking forward to working with you to advance policies that help women and families across the country. — PolitiTweet.org

First, Georgia. And now, Arkansas. Voter suppression isn’t unique to a few states. It’s happening all across the country. This couldn’t be more clear, we need to pass HR1: #ForThePeopleAct and HR4: John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Acts. — PolitiTweet.org

First @TheBlackCaucus-@WhiteHouse meeting ✅ I’m grateful we could talk with @POTUS Biden and our CBC sister @VP Harris about our shared commitment to fighting for working families; infrastructure; and racial justice and equity. We’ve got a lot of work ahead of us. https://t.co/dIjZNoZq5N — PolitiTweet.org

US Capitol Police Officer Billy Evans is a hero. He dedicated 18 years of his life protecting our Capitol, defending the citadel of our democracy. Today, we join all Americans in honoring his life and service. Sending my deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. — PolitiTweet.org

We need to get the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act passed in the Senate and signed into law. We need to end police brutality. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm sick to my stomach with the loss of yet another Black life. Daunte Wright should still be alive today. He and his family deserve answers, justice, and accountability. I'm praying for Duante's family during this difficult time. #BlackLivesMatter — PolitiTweet.org

Clean drinking water should be a basic human right. The #AmericanJobsPlan invests in our nation's water infrastructure, replaces lead pipes, and increases the American people's access to safe and clean drinking water. — PolitiTweet.org

The rising COVID cases in Michigan is concerning. While the Ford Field mass vaccination site is a strong step in keeping our communities safe, we can & must do more. I joined this bipartisan call in urging @POTUS to increase the vaccine supply to hardest-hit states like Michigan. https://t.co/ykJY3xYpkj — PolitiTweet.org

Great news! I'm proud to announce $3 million from the CARES Act to help small businesses in Oakland County. This funding is expected to create 125 jobs, save 225 jobs, and generate $9.2 million in private investment. https://t.co/CN53BeVvxr — PolitiTweet.org

Detroit lost a giant this week. I'm deeply saddened by the passing of Ray Solomon. He always put our communities first and did incredible work for Detroit and Michigan. I'm keeping his family and loved ones in my prayers. https://t.co/EmCt8a5q0A — PolitiTweet.org

Yemen is experiencing the world’s worst humanitarian crisis as a result of the Saudi blockade. A Yemeni child dies every 75 seconds of starvation. That's why I joined a congressional letter to @POTUS urging him to put pressure on Saudi Arabia to #EndTheBlockade immediately. https://t.co/t6pfmFs7oe — PolitiTweet.org

Inaction is not an option. I'm thankful for President Biden's leadership to #EndGunViolence, but Congress can and must do more. The House passed two common-sense, bipartisan gun safety measures last month, #HR8 and #HR1446. It's time for the Senate to do the same. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we remember the 6 million Jews, and countless others, who were murdered during the Holocaust as well as the families torn apart & those who survived it. "#NeverAgain" is more than just a phrase, it's a promise that we will never allow the evil and atrocity to happen again. — PolitiTweet.org
