This week, Democrats kept fighting to lower costs & create good-paying jobs for working families across America — while Republicans like @GlennYoungkin doubled down on their extreme agenda to ban abortion and cut taxes for the ultra-wealthy. #WeeklyStatesRoundup 🧵
President Biden just keeps delivering win after win for the American people. On Tuesday, he signed the Respect for Marriage Act to protect marriage equality, no thanks to the 36 Senate Republicans who voted against it.

And @JoeBiden’s economic agenda is bringing good-paying manufacturing jobs back home — including to Michigan!

Ohio will also see thousands of new jobs from this key investment. President Biden is 100% committed to rebuilding manufacturing right here in the USA.

Gas prices haven’t been this low in over a year. That’s more money in families’ pockets — thanks to President Biden!

Meanwhile, Republicans are doubling down on their extreme agenda: Yesterday, @GovRonDeSantis said he was “ready to sign” an extreme “heartbeat” abortion ban.

And Virginia GOP Governor @GlennYoungkin rolled out a new budget that could hand out massive tax cuts to corporations & the ultra-wealthy.

While Republicans are focused on an extreme agenda that puts the American people last, President Biden will never stop fighting for working folks.

That’s the difference between the MAGA Party and Dems.

🧵Today, we are seeing more Black candidates running for statewide office as well as Black political operatives running statewide campaigns- i.e. uber-talent like @quentinfulks.

However, the glass breaker herself @donnabrazile will tell you this has not always been the case.
Seeing Black political operatives in senior positions on campaigns was rare in presidential politics & specifically in SC.

Things began to shift after the DNC adjusted its presidential primary calendar in ‘06 & new opportunities began to emerge for Black operatives.
As many of you know, I worked for @WhipClyburn on Capitol Hill for yrs & helped with his political work. I was with him when SC & NV received the DNC’s nod to become early states.

SC’s first primary election as the 1st in the South was in 2008. It was a year for many firsts…

Last week, Dems defied expectations in the midterms and this week celebrated the one-year anniversary of @JoeBiden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

But the GOP is in disarray after millions of Americans rejected MAGA candidates and their extreme agenda. #WeeklyStatesRoundup 🧵
This week, I spoke with radio stations in WI, PA & CT about how Dems defied expectations in the midterms — and Republicans are racing to out-MAGA each other in the lead up to their presidential primary.

Thanks for having me, Keith Parris & @bshactman!
President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is already making a difference. In the first year alone, Washington State has already getting funding that will mean new, safer roads and bridges, increased access to public transit and more!

🧵20 years ago, I went to the Hill as a young staffer & since that time @SpeakerPelosi has always been our Leader. In her time as Speaker, Pelosi has been a tremendous force for good. She has been one of the most effective, consequential & powerful Speakers in our history. Image
Under her leadership, we avoided a collapse of the American economy in '08 and secured the passage of landmark laws like the ACA, American Rescue Plan, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, & the Inflation Reduction Act. She accomplished all of this while unifying a very diverse caucus.
Speaker Pelosi's political instincts and fundraising prowess are unparalleled. In total, she has raised over $1.25B for Democrats & this cycle alone she raised $276M & attended over 400 events. There is no one who can match her ability to win & fight "for the children."

Thanks to @POTUS, American manufacturing is back.

If Republicans who voted against the CHIPS & Science Act, Inflation Reduction Act, & Bipartisan Infrastructure Law got their way, our manufacturing boom would've never happened.

Here are the new jobs they voted against: 👇🏿🧵
IBM is investing $20 billion in new chip manufacturing facilities in New York after Democrats passed the CHIPS and Science Act:

Micron is investing up to $100 billion over the next two decades in semiconductor chip facilities in New York:

Expanding access to reproductive care. Boosting the country’s semiconductor industry.

President @JoeBiden continues to deliver.

Yesterday, he announced a full and unconditional pardon of all prior federal offenses for simple possession of marijuana. #WeeklyStatesRoundup 🧵:
Folks across the country applauded the president’s actions as a significant step toward reforming America’s failed approach to marijuana.
latimes.com/politics/story…
For states like Massachusetts—where marijuana is already decriminalized—the announcement will help individuals who faced federal charges previously, but may still face difficulties finding employment or housing due to their record.
