It’s time that our policy proposals match the scale of this crisis. We need: ✅ A paycheck guarantee for workers ✅ No-cost health care for all ✅ Hazard pay for essential workers ✅ Recurring stimulus payments ✅ Mortgage and rental assistance https://t.co/IvU6hebHBu — PolitiTweet.org

People exposed to higher amounts of air pollution are seeing spikes in the number of deaths during this crisis. #COVID19 is an environmental justice issue—and we must urgently meet the scale of this crisis with a massive investment in these communities. https://t.co/bfmAySHXQS — PolitiTweet.org

Bills don't wait, rent doesn't wait, grocery lists don't wait. Our unemployment system wasn't built to support this level of claims—and now millions are paying the price. Workers need certainty & direct relief now. My #PaycheckGuaranteeAct delivers that. https://t.co/zFqZuAcNmT — PolitiTweet.org

While I introduced the Medicare for All Act to save lives, Republicans are putting lives at risk. Their governors refuse to expand Medicaid, their senators vote to take care away from millions, & their president is trying to end protections for those with pre-existing conditions. — PolitiTweet.org

#BrownvBoard was decided 66 years ago but our fight for equity in education isn't over. We must end the achievement gap, eliminate funding shortages by fully investing in our public schools, halt the school-to-prison pipeline, and ensure teachers reflect the diversity of America. — PolitiTweet.org

Throughout this crisis, workers and families across WA have remained resilient. But we still need policies that deliver them urgent and direct relief. We must: ➡Get workers their paychecks ➡Ensure everyone has health care ➡Help all businesses survive https://t.co/heLMMwuSS0 — PolitiTweet.org

Many other countries have stepped up to support their workers by covering paychecks. We must do the same. It’s time to pass the Paycheck Guarantee Act. https://t.co/00yf827Fpy — PolitiTweet.org

Mass unemployment represents a failure on the part of the federal government to prioritize working families during this pandemic. This level of joblessness is a policy choice. We must choose differently by passing my Paycheck Guarantee Act. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s not a “may happen” anymore -- there are nearly 1,000 immigrants in detention who have tested positive of #COVID19 at a 48% positive test rate. The more we delay in passing the FIRST Act, the more lives there we put at risk. https://t.co/O1lAhx3s11 — PolitiTweet.org

Experts across the political spectrum agree. Other countries have done this and it works. It costs less money and covers more people than PPP. Here’s why we can’t delay passing the #PaycheckGuaranteeAct any longer ⬇️https://t.co/yOpPHRYsEr — PolitiTweet.org

While this legislation has some good elements, it ultimately does not achieve that. And it fails to match the scale of this crisis. We can and must do better. We must give people real relief and certainty before this crisis gets worse—because if we fail to do so, it will. — PolitiTweet.org

The crisis Americans are facing will not end on its own. We must beat the virus. To beat the virus, we must keep people home. To keep people home, we must make sure they get their paycheck, can access their health care, and don’t feel pressured to return to work before it’s safe. — PolitiTweet.org

In a last second change, the bill also threatens the pensions of working people and harms collective bargaining, undermining existing pension plans and exposing retirees to greater risks. This at a time when we should be strengthening collective bargaining and worker power! — PolitiTweet.org

We know businesses are also facing the awful choice of closing permanently or re-opening before it's safe to do so. But this bill doesn't do enough to tie funding for states to public health guidelines so businesses don't have to worry about putting their workers in harm's way. — PolitiTweet.org

We are in the midst of a pandemic where 27 million have lost their health care, joining the 87 million who were already uninsured or underinsured. Now, more than ever, people need health care. But this bill does not guarantee affordable and accessible health care for everyone. — PolitiTweet.org

More than 36 million have already filed for unemployment and 40% of households earning less than $40,000 lost a job. Mass unemployment is a policy choice and we must choose differently. But this bill does not keep workers in their jobs and guarantee the certainty of paychecks. — PolitiTweet.org
