After spending a week meeting caregivers across the country on the #CareCantWait bus tour, very excited to be joining @ABCGMA3 to talk about the solutions to our nation’s caregiving challenge.

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

New from @NavigatorSurvey. “Proposals to ban price gouging, expand Medicare’s power to negotiate lower drug prices, cap insulin costs, and provide workers with 12 weeks of paid family leave are seen as the most helpful policies for American families.”

[Nancy Pelosi @TeamPelosi]

Our families and our freedoms are on the ballot.

Led by DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene and inspired by advocates like MomsRising Together, Democrats will win the House, Senate and #BidenHarris2024 to create more jobs, restore Roe, Save Our Health Care, make the Biden Child Tax Credit permanent and invest in the Care Economy so that all children and moms can reach their full potential. -NP

We are so heartbroken to learn that @AdyBarkan, co-executive director of @BeAHero, died today due to ALS-related complications.

Ady was an incredible movement leader and friend, and will be greatly missed.

It was no small feat to keep the drastic cuts, of over $109 billion to #Medicaid OUT of the #DebtCeilingAgreemment Thank you to everyone who texted, called, emailed, and worked to #SaveMedicaid Next week we will work on expanding and modernizing it, for now, we await the vote.

[Nicole Jorwic @nicolejorwic]

Big day for the future of #Healthcare @SenSanders @RepJayapal, & @RepDebDingell re-introduced #MedicareForAll AND it includes something just as exciting ��� #LTSS!Universal healthcare is more important than ever w/ current threats to #Medicaid & 20 million people’s coverage 🧵https://t.co/TmfIKaaAuo

A big thank you to all the mamas, child care providers, grandparents, aunties, and uncles – and everyone else who makes care possible! For #MothersDay, our Jaimie Worker shares her gratitude for her care circle.

[Minnesotans for Paid Family & Medical Leave @mn4pfl]

What it’s like when you’ve been waiting nearly a decade for #PaidLeaveMN to pass both chambers in Congress the same session. Let’s pass this bill! #mnleg

[Nicole Jorwic @nicolejorwic]

🚨 Another #MedicaidMonday video. This week is the 13th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act becoming law. Learn about some of the #Medicaid components of the #ACA and why it’s so important to protect and expand both.

[Asha Banerjee @AshaBanerjee]

Some professional news!!! I'm beyond excited to join @USDOL as a fellow working for the Chief Economist. I'm honored and thrilled to continue working on labor market outcomes, an equitable economic recovery, and building worker power.

[New Disabled South @DisabledSouth]

Yesterday we held a press conference at the Georgia Capitol urging our lawmakers to both fund the waiting list of over 7k Georgians with disabilities waiting for home and community-based services, and give our care providers a pay raise. This is a solvable crisis. #CareCantWait

[Jaimie Worker @JaimieWorker]

Looking forward to presenting next week at CareCon for @WeAreHFC about how all Politics and Policies are Personal for Family Caregivers. Register here: https://t.co/zKMFIDcPL5 #CareCantWait

[Nicole Jorwic @nicolejorwic]

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Medicare doesn’t cover long-term care
It’s why we fight to keep Medicaid there

[Caring Across Generations #CareCantWait @CaringAcrossGen]

Great to work with @SenDuckworth, @RepSchakowsky and Illinois care advocates like @accessliving, @arcillinois, @ActiveRetirees, @SeniorCaucus, @ILAgingTogether, and @SEIUhciimk on Monday's Illinois Care Roundtable.

Illinoisans need federal action now.

[Caring Across Generations #CareCantWait @CaringAcrossGen]

On Monday — alongside community partners, caregivers, care recipients, & elected leaders like @SenDuckworth & Congresswoman @JanSchakowsky — we hosted a roundtable to talk about the state of care in Illinois. Check out the powerful statements from both elected leaders ⬇️

[Caring Across Generations #CareCantWait @CaringAcrossGen]

What does the Workers' Rights Amendment mean for Illinois?

✅ Higher wages for all workers
✅ More safety protections, especially for first responders
✅ Better training standards on the job

IL, don't wait — vote YES for the Workers' Rights Amendment today!
