Finally a piece that ties together the ongoing work shortage with the millions of #longhaulers unable to return to work. They estimate 1.3 million people with #LongCovid out of work but it’s likely much higher, 6m+.

FACTS: 531,000 jobs added last month! 5.6 million new jobs since Pres. Biden took office and an improving jobs market vs. Trump’s recession even before COVID.

The Biden economic agenda to restore the American Dream for working families is working and we're just getting started.

I am urging all members to vote for both the rule for consideration of the Build Back Better Act and final passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure bill tonight.

I am confident that during the week of November 15, the House will pass the Build Back Better Act.

Do you know how rich you have to be to pay more than $72.5k in state and local taxes? So rich that you're
paying more in state and local taxes than the median American family's annual income!

Lots of people are puzzled by why Democrats would do this so let me explain. It's actually very straightforward: Democrats are trying to help people who are very rich.

Thread. Another teenager was killed by the cash bail system in Houston. He was 19, had an IQ of 62, and weighed 98 pounds. He had never been arrested before, and the DA and the judges put him in a cage because he couldn't pay a couple thousand dollars. His story is important.

A permanent class system for work. No more tedium finding excuses not to hire women or non-white people; they won't have the on-chain resources to qualify for your AI driven web3 hiring agent anyways.

How it will work:

- You apply for a job
- It scans the blockchain and rates your set of on chain experiences and credentials
- If above a certain rating, you’re hired within 60 seconds

No prejudice, no wasted time, no pain

Just a quick yes or no

This is a big deal

To keep you up -

The funny not funny thing about questions like this? The data shows that Black kids are impacted by racism before birth. There's never a time where they aren't impacted, and framing like this positions white children as the only children that matter. Just so we're clear
