David has started his own company, which is rapidly expanding due to their work under Proposal N. Detroit at Work is helping him find more residents to hire, including returning citizens. When talent and opportunity meet, there's nothing Detroiters can't do. #opportunityrising — PolitiTweet.org

In Detroit, we are building a city that provides support and opportunity for residents, wherever they are in their lives. David Gillespie was tired of working a $9/hr job, so he took advantage of a city program and got a job paying 3 times that amount. https://t.co/xmtdLUFpFl — PolitiTweet.org

FEMA has done tremendous work in Detroit, approving more than $50 mil in disaster aid. We're proud that FEMA's work with our Detroit flood response team has helped lead to improvements that will help other American's coping with similar challenges. https://t.co/LsLgJnjGIj — PolitiTweet.org

Detroit has innovative entrepreneurs of all backgrounds, however it historically has been harder for entrepreneurs of color to get access to the capital they need to turn their dreams into reality. That is why the Entrepreneurs of Color Fund was developed back in 2016. — PolitiTweet.org

I also want to thank all of our City employees at DWSD and the General Services Department for their hard work in making this flood recovery swift and efficient. In the 5 weeks since Biden’s emergency declaration, FEMA has approved $56 million for 20,000 Detroit households. — PolitiTweet.org

Since we announced the availability of the third shot to immunocompromised residents last week, we’ve been giving about 500 shots of the third dose at TCF daily. Now, both the Pfizer and Moderna third dose shots are available at 10 community locations. https://t.co/wBIgHvDuMw — PolitiTweet.org

FEMA and SBA are doing an outstanding job in getting Detroiters the help they need following the flooding of June 25th and 26th. FEMA has already approved more than $40 million in grants to residents with flood damage, while SBA has approved over $30 million in disaster loans. https://t.co/28xFVlCX5y — PolitiTweet.org

We must work to eliminate the barriers preventing Detroit's youth from achieving their educational goals. No one should be denied a quality education of their choice because of their zip code. This is why President Biden's Build Back Better Plan would create a huge impact for us. — PolitiTweet.org

It appears the Census Bureau has undercounted Detroit’s population by at least 10%. We will be pursuing our legal remedies to get Detroit an accurate count. — PolitiTweet.org

The Census data released today says Detroit has only 254,000 occupied households. DTE reports there are nearly 280,000 residential households currently paying electric bills. At a minimum, the Census somehow failed to count 25,000 occupied houses with running electricity. — PolitiTweet.org

This is exactly what @RepRashida and I predicted on October 28th when we were joined by Census workers who shared their stories about how Detroit neighborhoods were being undercounted and were upset that the count was shut down a month before originally planned. — PolitiTweet.org
