When you text “organize,” same prompt for zip code and name, and then you’re directed to a page where you can search for events around your zipcode: https://t.co/34Z7RwRBOq — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

And before Warren takes the stage, campaign is asking anyone interested in volunteering with campaign to text “organize” to that same number. https://t.co/PLKLEGAaGu — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

When you text that number, here’s what you get: a request for zip code and full name. When you give that, you get... a photo of a good boy 🐶 https://t.co/mUgaGdFBzd — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren’s second stop is Lansing Community College. Here’s the organizing happening here: campaign is asking everyone to text “Lansing” to a number as they enter the event: https://t.co/C8lqGFMMwS — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren said in a gaggle in Detroit that she has not started debate prep: “I just haven't started. I'm having fun doing this - this is the campaign, it’s out talking to people every single chance I get.“ (h/t @naomeyeee) — PolitiTweet.org

Last Q is about Warren’s universal childcare and how she can ensure that it’ll be quality childcare https://t.co/nRQDhcROwh — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Next Q is about gun violence from a woman who volunteers with Moms Demand Action. Citing the continued mass shootings in the US, the woman says this is not the kind of country she wants to live in: https://t.co/1UfSFJMKxN — PolitiTweet.org

Standing ovation from women in the audience, when Warren tells the story of telling girls during Senate race: “I’m running for Senate because that’s what girls do.” https://t.co/5mx4QZIxfc — PolitiTweet.org

(The CFPB anecdote is leading up to story Warren often shares on the trail, about how she says people underestimated her in her first 2012 Senate race.) — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

As Warren starts talking about her work on the CFPB, a woman near front of the audience yells out: “They saved me!” — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Warren starts answer with: “You never back down from a bully.” Says as a teacher, she knows that “somebody’s gotta be in charge.” — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

After her usual stump speech, Warren is now taking audience Qs. This woman asks about voters who want a “male candidate who can beat Trump.” https://t.co/5xWxBVuvw6 — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Warren says this plan would be paid for by taxing profits of corporations — “I’m looking at you, Amazon.” — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Says her plan would also increase purchases of green technology, and also increase developing and selling US green technology. How do we pay for it? “I’ve always got a plan,” Warren says. — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

“We need to be all in to fight this climate crisis,” Warren says, by way of introducing her new green manufacturing plan. Says her plan would increase investments in green R&D by tenfold https://t.co/3duVcTSWQV — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Warren starts by saying many US corporations are not “loyal” to Americans. “If they can make a nickel by sending your jobs somewhere else, they’ll do it,” she says. — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Today’s walkout song for Warren is “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” https://t.co/pOKYczVAxf — PolitiTweet.org

Second person I've spoken with today to use the "comfortable" word re: Biden -- Weigl says she's not surprised to see him leading the polls, and that a lot of Democrats "feel very comfortable with him" because "he doesn't challenge the status quo too much." — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Weigl, who is white, on why it's so important for her to see candidate tackle racial inequality: "We're not going to advance as a society and as a country until white people start reckoning with the history of white supremacy and violence in this country." — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Ashley Weigl, 37, is attending this Warren event with her 7-yo daughter. Says she is decided on Warren because of what she says is her committeemen to tackling economic and racial inequality. https://t.co/ASkDwwMZ0k — PolitiTweet.org

Hackett is one of the most engaged voters I’ve met so far (and the bar is high)! He has started a spreadsheet on candidates’ voting records, past support of judicial nominees, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Hackett’s top choices: 1. Warren 2. Harris (says she has a “really good story”) 3. Buttigieg (appreciates how his sexual orientation has helped elevate conversations about LGBTQ issues) On Biden being clear frontrunner: “Right now people are comfortable with the idea of Biden.” — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Oliver Hackett, 22, is a college student strongly leaning towards Warren for now because he likes her message in economic inequality. As a transgender person, Hackett says he also appreciates Warren’s support for LGBTQ community. https://t.co/2YpBlASiX0 — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Hunter’s top choice right now: 1. Warren 2. Biden (“mainly because I know he can win”) 3. Harris and Booker tied (needs to learn more about Harris; likes that Booker really “cares.” As an African-American, she says electing a nominee of color is not a major factor for her. — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

Outside of Warren event, Crettia Hunter, 61, of Detroit tells me Warren is her first choice for now because she likes her policies, including her student loan debt cancelation plan. When she graduated from college, she only owed $1,000. Says that’s not possible for her kids. https://t.co/zX1qdb2yHl — PolitiTweet.org

We’re at Focus: Hope in Detroit, a facility that in part offers job training services. Elizabeth Warren will be here in a bit to discuss her new “green manufacturing plan.” There is a patriotic robot: https://t.co/YDWtsg8Yed — PolitiTweet.org

Applauding the great @CarolynSungCNN, who managed this parking job in which one back tire is not even touching the ground 👏🏻👏🏻🚙 https://t.co/VDRtHSTmwC — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

This is one of a series of economic plans to be unveiled in coming weeks, Warren says -- she's dubbing the theme of the next phase of her policy rollouts as "economic patriotism." She describes that as creating and promoting American jobs & industry. https://t.co/KZknDtAXWu — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

New: Ahead of a two-day Midwest swing, Elizabeth Warren releases a $2 trillion proposal -- the "Green Manufacturing Plan" -- that helps paint a picture of how she'd implement the Green New Deal. This is on same day Joe Biden released a climate change plan https://t.co/KZknDtAXWu — PolitiTweet.org
