Nurses are indispensable in medicine and are the backbone of the backbone of our nation's response to this crisis. To all our nurses: Happy National Nurses Day. “Thank you” will never be enough for your lifesaving work. https://t.co/BiXniPhFBr — PolitiTweet.org

.@SpeakerPelosi is right—"the road from 3 million to 30 million is a long one." The #PaycheckGuaranteeAct will close that gap between PPP loans issued so far and what our small businesses need, while also getting money into the hands of workers. https://t.co/HbGslojnad — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll be joined by Sen. @PattyMurray and former US Surgeon General @vivek_murthy for an online briefing on #COVID19 tomorrow (May 6th) at 5:00PM PT. Tweet at me with your questions and I hope to be able to answer them on my live stream. Details on how to tune in ⬇️ https://t.co/w8u5cj1g8F — PolitiTweet.org

Seattle has the highest number of missing and murdered indigenous women in the country. We must do more for our indigenous communities. I joined @RepDebHaaland & @RepDavids in calling on Congress to recognize May 5th as the #MMIW Day of Awareness. https://t.co/wedxIW9eLz — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal

I’ve heard from small businesses who are worried that PPP’s preconditions may add to their debts while failing to help their employees. My #PaycheckGuaranteeAct would use the existing tax info businesses have with IRS to guarantee 100% of every paycheck. https://t.co/0FO3YsxkE9 — PolitiTweet.org

Warehousing means unsafe close proximity, w/no protections or rights. AND it fosters social #inequality which--simply--kills. We need structural solutions, along w/emergency help like my FIRST Act that addresses immigrant incarceration. https://t.co/53Gd23IHAm — PolitiTweet.org

A very fair article from @dmccabe, chronicling my efforts to work privately with Amazon and why I sent a detailed public letter with my many concerns about the treatment of employees. My first in-depth interview on the subject. Thanks to @granthindsley for a beautiful pic also! — PolitiTweet.org

Extremely notable resignation from Amazon VP @timbray. Grateful for his moral courage in calling out (in his words) "evidence of a vein of toxicity running through the company culture." — PolitiTweet.org

Important thread from @awgaffney on the need to ensure everyone has access to healthcare during this crisis. Thanks to @PNHP for pushing for my #MedicareForAll bill for the long-term. And we must immediately respond with emergency legislation to cover people's care now. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump Administration has failed to look out for student borrowers defrauded by for-profit colleges. @SenatorDurbin, @RepMarkTakano, @SenSherrodBrown, @SenWarren and I are introducing a plan to grant full loan discharges to finally make right by these students. https://t.co/gJoPQUu80u — PolitiTweet.org

Three weeks ago, I led a letter to @FEMA with @RepDelbene, @RepAdamSmith, and @RepKimSchrier to ensure that counties experiencing high levels of homelessness have funds for emergency food and shelter. I’m proud to announce FEMA listened, and @KingCountyWA will receive $2 million. https://t.co/H20DmXs8aS — PolitiTweet.org

#COVID19 has forced many undocumented, #DACA, #TPS, and #DED students into greater economic insecurity. I joined @RepLouCorrea, @RepRaulGrijalva, in leading 84 colleagues to demand @BetsyDevosED allow immigrant students access to this critical relief. https://t.co/223a2ByHOj — PolitiTweet.org

8M were struggling to pay rent before #COVID19. We need emergency #RentReliefNow! That is why I have joined @SenSherrodBrown @RepDennyHeck @RepMaxineWaters to introduce a bill to ensure housing stability during #COVID19. https://t.co/5aUaVg9Vhc — PolitiTweet.org

Mass unemployment is a policy choice and we can choose better. The federal government must step in and guarantee every American’s paycheck now. #PaycheckGuaranteeAct. https://t.co/nmo2bu6Qgn — PolitiTweet.org

Two things can be true at the same time: a company can be doing work that is incredibly valued and essential, and it can be treating workers badly. I’ve tried to have these conversations in private, but it’s time for Amazon to answer our questions. https://t.co/JDEiDpwjgl — PolitiTweet.org

PPP relies too much on businesses having existing relationships with banks and the @SBAGov - benefitting the well-connected and leaving out many small and minority-owned businesses. My #PaycheckGuaranteeAct would streamline this process. https://t.co/JpggUzJpRO — PolitiTweet.org
