I had the type of job where I could take time to be with my mother when she was diagnosed with cancer.
Every worker should be able to take time off to care for the people they love. Together, we will work towards ensuring paid family and medical leave for every worker.
Happy Birthday to the 40th President of the United States, Ronald Reagan! Ronald Reagan inspired me to join the Republican Party and I will always admire the way he led America. I’m proud to say I joined the Reagan revolution and never looked back! 🇺🇸
One of the hardest things for many Green campaigns is getting on the ballot! We often collect many times more signatures than our opponents and even when we collect them, Democrats challenge us.

America is seeing record job growth.
When we lead, we build a future in which every American not only survives, but can thrive.
More Americans than ever before have signed up for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act.
From November 1 to January 15, over 16.3 million Americans signed up for health care—further proof that our efforts are delivering record-breaking results.
Since President @JoeBiden and I took office, the economy has added a record 12 million jobs—that's more jobs in two years than under any president in a full four-year term.
Mission Statement for @DeptofDefense MAD LIBS Edition
To provide the military forces needed to _____ and ____ wars and to _____ the security of our country and our ______.
Just fill in the blanks randomly. It will be just as accurate.
You can't schedule when your loved one might need your help.
That’s why I signed a memorandum urging all federal agencies to let workers take leave during the first year on the job.
We stand on the shoulders of giants in American history.
This Black History Month, let us recommit to honoring their legacy with action. Let us continue their fight for justice and equality for all so that generations may stand on our shoulders and reach even greater heights.

Americans said to bring down the cost of insulin.
And so we delivered and brought down the cost for our seniors to $35 a month.
You should be able to switch your internet, cable, or cell phone plan without the early termination penalty some companies charge.
The Junk Fee Protection Act would help put a stop to some of the most frustrating charges Americans face.

Last November, Americans spoke with their vote, and we had the best midterms for governors in 35 years.
Once again, we have Democratic governors in Arizona, Maryland, and Massachusetts.
An important part of our economic plan is promoting fair competition across the entire economy.
You’ve heard me say it before: Capitalism without competition isn’t capitalism, it’s exploitation.
I will deliver my State of the Union address on Tuesday, February 7 at 9pm ET.
From record job creation to cutting health care costs to boosting manufacturing, our second year was filled with historic progress—and I’m excited about the work ahead. Tune in.

In 2022, we capped the price of insulin at $35 a month for seniors on Medicare, made the largest investment in climate in a generation, and much more.
Help us continue building on this progress by chipping in today:

In December, we passed the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.
It filled an important gap in federal protections that require employees to make reasonable accommodations for pregnant women and new moms.
Yesterday Howie talked about the need for not only #MedicareForAll, but a national health service in response to Biden announcing he will end the COVID emergency this spring.

As of this month, we've created 12 million new jobs. The strongest two years of growth in history by a longshot with 3.4% unemployment.
The last time unemployment was this low was in 1969.

Some airlines charge extra to pick your seat, including for parents who want to sit next to their child on a plane.
Congress should pass the Junk Fee Protection Act so we can crack down on these fees and give hard-working Americans just a little bit more breathing room.

In the 2022 midterms, Democrats had a historic performance.
We added Democratic governors, kept the U.S. Senate and control of state legislative chambers, and ranked closer than anyone thought possible in the House.

By the end of this year, over 20,000 projects will be underway across America with funding from the infrastructure law that I signed.
It’s time for Congress to pass the Junk Fee Prevention Act.
No one should have to pay extra to sit next to their child on the plane, pay a surprise “resort fee” for a hotel stay, pay more to terminate their cable plan, or pay huge service fees to buy concert tickets.
Thank you @TheTylerDrdn and #ChatGPT for such a wonderful poem. This really did make my day!
#ChatGPT poem for @JoForLiberty for President
The state of our economy is strong.
We learned today that the economy created 517,000 jobs last month—meaning we've created 12 million jobs since I took office.
Shoot down the Chinese spy balloon.
Go ahead and send the Secretary of State to China next week.
Have @SecBlinken Look them in the eye and tell em- it better never happen again.
That’s Peace Through Strength🇺🇸

We’re making things here in America again. And it’s about time we’re doing it.
This Tuesday, February 7 at 9pm ET, President @JoeBiden will deliver the State of the Union address.
After two years in office, I can confidently say we are building a better future.
What might be our next step in working towards a broad left party here in the US? A new piece by one of our members, Rick Greenblatt, ponders this question in his new piece, Towards a Broad Left Party.

Last year @people4liberty worked hard to find solutions during the baby formula shortage.
Today I read that NO ONE at the @US_FDA was held accountable.
People want "cushy" government jobs because they will never be held responsible for their actions.
Only the masses suffer.
Wholesaler-distributors are essential to the US economy. Without this vital industry, commerce would all but cease. Thank you for showing up each and every day to keep our economy, and our Nation, moving! 🇺🇸
Thank you, @NAWorg! Looking forward to returning common sense policies back to Washington that combat inflation and work for all the American people! 🇺🇸
Thanks to help from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the first piece of the new Hudson Tunnel is being built.
This is just the beginning of constructing a 21st-century rail system that’s long overdue.
