One year ago, @andowah, @TSpottiswoode, Lora Henry & @elizadushku testified before @HouseJudicary to #EndForcedArbitration for sexual assault & harassment. This week, on the anniversary of that day, the House passed @reploisfrankel’s bill to void NDAs & let survivors #SpeakOut. https://t.co/zUQkD6g03D
RT @RepAndyLevin: Gearing up to go live on @CBS with @RepCheri to discuss @SpeakerPelosi’s announcement today. https://t.co/gRYBICYnf9
Survivors' stories are powerful - they launched the #MeToo movement, inspired my bill to #EndForcedArbitration & led to yesterday's vote to pass the #SpeakOut Act. Stories can move mountains, & if not mountains, then at least Congress! TY to all who've shared their stories. https://t.co/fanGawtT9L
No American should be forced to sign away their right to speak the truth. Next week, I look forward to passing the bipartisan #SpeakOut Act in the House!

Our Mom, Ann Callahan, was nice to EVERYONE. She wasn’t a gossip or petty. If someone was rude or mean, she would tell us that we could learn from that person how not to be. She loved kids, animals, and harmony. And we loved her.
from Cheri: My mother, a perpetual optimist who saw the good in everyone, died late last night at her home in Springfield, Illinois. My sister and I were with her. https://t.co/vwvotVUKEl
Making sure families get to keep more of the money they've earned has always been a top priority. That's why I've voted to create better-paying jobs here in Northwest & Central IL, all while lowering costs on household essentials. #PeopleOverPolitics
Pregnant women denied water? Told they can't have a chair to sit on? The statements in today's @nytimes are just plain wrong. Let's stop sidelining our working mothers - the Senate needs to act and pass the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act and #ProtectPregnantWorkers NOW.
