Office:
Date Title
10/26/2022 Tweet - "Funds from the American Rescue Plan have stabilized 4,970 child care programs across Virginia -- allowing them to stay staffed and serve 317,500 children, giving parents the flexibility they need to work. This is critical funding for our kids and for stabilizing our economy."
07/10/2022 Tweet - "We got the Keep Kids Fed Act signed into law -- which means over 1,000 schools across Virginia will be able to continue providing meals to kids through the summer and next school year."
05/18/2022 Tweet - "Every student deserves a nutritious lunch, and schools need to be able to avoid bureaucracy to make that happen. That's why I'm supporting @SenStabenow 's Support Kids Not Red Tape Act, which will extend a pandemic benefit and support kids and schools."
05/14/2022 Tweet - "It's frankly unimaginable that parents are rationing formula. Yesterday, I joined with 31 of my Senate colleagues to push for immediate action to address this urgent crisis."
12/17/2021 Tweet - "Folks, I still believe in BBB because I know it would be an incredible piece of legislation for working families. It would cut costs where it matters, giving a break to families that are struggling to keep up with rising child care expenses."
12/16/2021 Tweet - "The Child Tax Credit caused a 40% reduction in child poverty -- an unprecedented accomplishment. We must make this permanent by passing #BuildBackBetter."
12/15/2021 Tweet - "$3,000 extra in a family's annual income when their kid is less than 5 y/o leads to 19% higher future earnings. Investing in the financial security of our children is one of the smartest economic decisions we can make, and that's why it's time to extend the Child Tax Credit."
12/09/2021 Tweet - "I reintroduced the bipartisan DETOUR Act to help combat #darkpatterns and addictive internet design aimed at kids. It's time we started holding social media companies accountable for the manipulative interfaces they build."
11/24/2021 Tweet - "Folks, child care costs have spiraled out of control, and it's hurting families. The #BuildBackBetterAct changes that by capping child care costs at 7% of a family's income. Let's get this historic bill done."
