Title
10/17/2021
Tweet - "I'm in the business of making sure we #BuildBackBetter for everybody -- not just the people at the top."
10/16/2021
Tweet - "The American Rescue Plan's expanded #ChildTaxCredit is pulling millions of children out of poverty. Without further action, though, it will end after 2021. Let's work to make it permanent."
10/15/2021
Tweet - "The #BuildBackBetter Act is our opportunity to address the systemic inequities exposed and exacerbated by COVID-19. This is a not a red state/blue state issue. This is a moral issue for all Americans."
10/14/2021
Tweet - "Americans like Akira, who have done everything right in the federal rental assistance application process, are still finding themselves at risk of losing their homes. States must act now and distribute these life-saving funds."
10/07/2021
Tweet - "Under a FEMA program established by Congress, nearly $26 million in COVID-19 funeral assistance has been provided to 3,700+ SC families impacted by this pandemic. It cannot erase their grief, but this program can ease the financial burdens associated with losing a loved one."
10/06/2021
Tweet - "Something is very wrong when the tenants who need rental assistance the most are deterred by their own landlords or lost in their state's assistance backlog. States must do what is necessary and get these rental assistance funds out."
09/14/2021
Tweet - "Because of my experiences in this country, I know low-income neighborhoods will be left behind if we don't fully fund these programs in the budget bill. Let's stop arguing about the numbers and start looking at the programs they apply to."
06/04/2021
Tweet - "Today's jobs report is proof that the Democrats' economic recovery plan is working. Americans are getting vaccinated, the economy is reopening, and, under the leadership of President Biden, unemployment is at the lowest rate since the pandemic began. #BuildBackBetter"
05/25/2021
Tweet - "Cutting off pandemic unemployment benefits early will hurt rural communities, and won't help people get back to work. People want to work, but they need job offers with fair pay, transportation to get there, and childcare to be available."
04/09/2021
Tweet - "I applaud the Biden-Harris Administration's funding request for endorsing my "10-20-30" plan, which targets investments in persistent poverty communities. I look forward to working with the Administration to expand opportunity in areas that have been neglected for far too long."
04/02/2021
BlackPressUSA - OP-ED: The American Rescue Plan -- Changing the Course of the Pandemic for All Americans
12/08/2020
Tweet - "Our frontline public service workers stepped up to the front lines when we needed them most, but now, over 1.2 million of them are unemployed and in desperate need of aid. They cannot afford to wait on the Senate to act any longer. We must #FundTheFrontLines."
10/15/2020
Tweet - "8 million Americans have fallen into poverty since May as federal aid has run out. House Democrats passed the Heroes Act twice to provide relief to struggling Americans. It's time for Mitch McConnell to pass legislation that meets the significant needs of American families."
08/02/2020
CNN "State of the Union with Jake Tapper" - Transcript Interview with James Clyburn
07/08/2020
Tweet - "Expanded assistance for unemployed Americans expires in 18 days. The House voted to extend benefits in May with the #HeroesAct, but McConnell has yet to take it up in the Senate. COVID-19 cases are rising and unemployment is historically high. Americans need help now."
02/13/2020
Release: Rep. Khanna, Majority Whip Clyburn, Sen. Bennet, Reps. Price and Clarke Introduce Legislation to Provide Legal Assistance to Tenants Facing Eviction
02/07/2020
Tweet - "New study finds that low-income workers should thank state minimum wage increases, not Trump, for their wage gains. To lift wages nationwide, the Senate must pass the Raise the Wage Act--and the President must sign it."
01/14/2020
Tweet - "I have long advocated for targeting persistent poverty communities with federal funding, including through my 10-20-30 plan, so we can help bridge the economic divide. That way towns like Pembroke Township get the infrastructure and investment they need."
01/01/2020
Issue Position: 10-20-30 Funding Formula
06/19/2019
Tweet - "The 2020 appropriations bills apply the 10-20-30 formula to 17 different accounts, three more than in Fiscal Year 2019. I am hopeful that Members on both sides of the aisle will support these targeted investments in persistent poverty communities by supporting this bill."
04/03/2019
Clyburn and Booker Introduce Sweeping Anti-Poverty Bill
02/07/2019
Tweet - "Yesterday, the @CFPB announced it is rolling back Obama-era regulations to protect consumers from predatory lending practices. Now immoral payday lenders can continue their efforts to bankrupt working poor families who already struggle to make ends meet."
10/03/2018
Tweet - "Clyburn, @CoryBooker announce major legislation to fight #poverty in America; new report details success of 10-20-30 formula. Read more: https://bit.ly/2y0OrQZ"
