@sasquatchtango I agree. It’s not enough to simply decriminalize marijuana—we must repair the damage done to those communities. My Marijuana Justice Act aims to do just that. — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

We need to get people who are serving excessive sentences home—sentences for involvement in something 2 out of the last 3 presidents have admitted doing. The War on Drugs was a failure—it's time we right that wrong. https://t.co/SpFcQBI6EK https://t.co/mqqgr2nIsm — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

@rgilbertmusic Absolutely. Clemency is just the first step. We're working to make sure that there are job opportunities, that records get expunged, and that we invest in communities that have been ravaged by the War on Drugs. — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

This administration cannot claim to care about Americans and then deny such a basic right to half the population. This attack on health care will not go unnoticed—we won't stop fighting until we have reproductive freedom for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Right now, there are thousands of people sitting in prison serving excessive sentences. Today I’m announcing that as president, I’ll immediately start the clemency process for more than 17,000 individuals who are there due to the failed War on Drugs. https://t.co/SpFcQBI6EK — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve spent my entire career speaking truth to power. And I’ll never apologize for doing that, certainly not when I’m running to beat Donald Trump and bring this country together. My campaign needs your support. Please consider chipping in now: https://t.co/WsnR9QNViD — PolitiTweet.org

Vice President Joe Biden told me I should know better. As a Black man in America, here's what I know: https://t.co/MbbrVbi3BJ — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you @NickPryorIA for your support. Gun violence is ravaging our country. That's why we're going to win this election together and bring the fight to the corporate gun lobby like it’s never seen before. https://t.co/mD4CecuQRj — PolitiTweet.org

I am VERY excited about this book by @K_JeanPierre - I hope you will join me in getting a copy and sharing with others. https://t.co/rquH2BXfin — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

Your family’s income or where you're born shouldn’t limit your opportunity to achieve upward mobility. Every child born in this country should get a fair shot. My Baby Bonds proposal will virtually close the racial wealth gap and level the playing field. https://t.co/DN19j0z4Tb — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

I am so grateful for the support of @KonfrstForHouse, @RepAmyNielsen & @marksmithiowa. It is not lost on me that it takes a collective effort to win this race—thank you for joining me in this fight. https://t.co/CRiX2AxOX6 — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

This is a crisis. We need to call it what it is. If we’re not talking about how to protect trans women of color and denouncing the targeting and hate they face, then we’re contributing to it. Silence in the face of injustice is complicity. — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

We've watched enough of this trauma in viral videos to understand that it's not unusual. There's no room for a system where humans are treated this way & we need to get serious about racial bias training & real police oversight to stop this brutality. — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

.@lovejoy941 thank you for sharing your story. Not only are these fees an economic burden, they prevent families from connecting with loved ones—connection that could determine whether someone rehabilitates or returns to jail. This is a step in the right direction. — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

The goal isn't just to stop the attack on Roe v. Wade. The goal is to advance women's rights and show the country what we already know to be true... Abortion is health care. Contraception is health care. Reproductive freedom is health care ... https://t.co/lf3QuPwXvg — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

It’s time to make a meaningful investment in Black entrepreneurship and economic empowerment. We can’t have large sections of our population denied equal access and think it’s not a cancer that affects the rest of the country as well. We need justice for all, now. — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

And, we will make sure working Americans have more money in their pocket by fixing the tax code, making housing more affordable, addressing the crushing student debt crisis and ensuring that higher education is not out of reach. https://t.co/vA670z8ZDu — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

We will boost entrepreneurship by expanding training programs and invest $1.5 billion into the State Small Business Credit Initiative. We will reform our criminal justice system so that people affected by the failed War on Drugs can apply for loans and have access to capital. — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

As president, I will work to close that gap. My Baby Bonds proposal will create an interest-bearing savings account for every child born in the US. By age 18, the most impoverished kids would have access to nearly $50,000 to start a new business or put a down payment on a home. https://t.co/Jtt8OKTpWR — PolitiTweet.org

Cory Booker @CoryBooker

White families hold nearly 10 times the wealth of Black families. Considering $30,000 is about the average startup capital to launch a business (almost double the net worth of a median Black family), it’s no surprise we have economic inequality. — PolitiTweet.org
