I can’t keep listening to people blaming poverty and hunger on “personal choice.”
No child chooses to go hungry because she can’t afford a meal.
No one chooses to die because they can't afford insulin.
We need to stop blaming others for our broken system and start fixing it. pic.twitter.com/h872Mm9URP

Enough of the #McConnellGraveyard! Americans want action on the issues facing their families – and the House has delivered. They deserve to see these proposals receive a vote on the floor of the Senate. pic.twitter.com/RtATC5EA2r

The House just passed legislation that makes critical investments in the American people and shows the vital need to #RaiseTheCaps. These bills strengthen education systems, job training programs, health care, and water infrastructure, among other priorities. #ForThePeople twitter.com/AppropsDems/st…

I'm with @HouseBudgetDems this morning and the honorable @RevDrBarber—a champion for the @UniteThePoor campaign.
How can the most prosperous country in the world be home to nearly 40 mill people mired in poverty, including 1/5 children?

Testimony from @RevDrBarber in our @HouseBudgetDems hearing on poverty this morning:
“This is the moral mandate for our Nation at this moment. The work of reconstructing America is not done, and we must do it together. Nothing less than the promise of our democracy is at stake."

@RepJohnYarmuth: Meanwhile, housing prices have gone up dramatically in many areas of the country, tuition costs have skyrocketed, and Americans are paying more for nearly every expense. These facts are important, but they tell only part of the story…

@RepJohnYarmuth: This past Sunday marked the longest period of time in US history without an increase in the federal minimum wage, and overall wage growth, after adjusting for inflation has remained largely stagnant for 40 years…
