And I am grateful to the @PaidLeaveforAll coalition, @GlamourMag, & everyone who shared their stories & joined us for a day of action.
Congress must act on this for our caregivers & families.

I was my mother’s caregiver during her battle with leukemia.
I can’t imagine the heartbreak of losing the job I loved while also losing a parent who loved me so deeply — but that’s the reality for far too many.
We must pass @PaidLeaveforAll & build a just America that cares for our people.

Black women earn 66 cents for every $1 paid to white men.
The wage gap isn’t just a number—it’s a damning economic injustice.

Project Labor Agreements open doors for women, people of color, and veterans to enter the trades.
And they help ensure construction projects finish on time and on budget.
I’m proud Massachusetts is leading the way and using PLAs to advance racial and economic justice.

But Republicans want to undermine those tests to help banks game the system.
We need meaningful and stringent stress tests for a safer and more stable financial system.
