The railroad industry which made $20 billion in profits last year cannot continue to deny workers paid sick leave. It is unacceptable and dangerous for conductors & engineers to be on call for 14 consecutive days, 12 hours a day & then get fired for going to a doctor. — PolitiTweet.org

In November, voters can help send the most progressives to Congress ever. Join me this Wednesday evening at 8 PM ET to hear from some of them. https://t.co/dVZCKsukPw — PolitiTweet.org

I stand in solidarity with the 15,000 @mnnurses on strike this week fighting for safer care, fair scheduling, and higher wages. Nurses are the backbone of our health care system. They understand what’s best for their patients. https://t.co/XHo3aqyiQy — PolitiTweet.org

Our job is not only to grow the trade union movement in this country. We must also break down these archaic laws that make it so hard for workers to organize and so easy for an employer to refuse to negotiate. https://t.co/XmgOoLbW5E — PolitiTweet.org

This is a MAJOR victory. Congratulations to the Minor League Baseball players who organized to make it happen. I hope the Commissioner and MLB will move just as quickly to negotiate a fair first contract. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Brown and Cynthia Mendes are the clear progressive choices for Rhode Islanders. As community organizers and elected officials, they have fought for truly affordable housing and public transportation, Medicare for All, and raising the minimum wage. https://t.co/vYd2uj0fuy — PolitiTweet.org

David Segal is one of those leaders we need in Congress. As a legislator and as a grassroots organizer, he has been a champion in taking on corporate interests, breaking up big monopolies and demanding that health be considered as a human right, not a privilege. https://t.co/MheQjHYw6d — PolitiTweet.org

I urge the people of Rhode Island to make their voices heard and elect progressive candidates up and down the ballot this Tuesday who are fighting for change – real change. — PolitiTweet.org

The devastating effects of the climate crisis are here. The short-term profits of the fossil fuel industry are not more important than our planet. The Senate must reject the dirty side deal to approve a pipeline through West Virginia. https://t.co/YNJfWbcctD — PolitiTweet.org

The cost of childcare in this country, on average, is upwards of $10,000 a year. In Vermont, it's over $15,000. What working class parent can afford that? https://t.co/yLFu36S7ih — PolitiTweet.org

No one can tell me with a straight face that it makes any sense at all that CEOs of large corporations make a record-breaking 350 times what their workers earn. Totally ridiculous. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Let me congratulate @AyannaPressley on her primary victory tonight. Now more than ever, working people in Massachusetts and all across the country need progressive leaders in Congress who fight for them. I look forward to continuing our work together in Washington. https://t.co/vAc1g3clzx — PolitiTweet.org

Billionaires and their Super PACs must not be able to buy Democratic Party primaries. If Democrats really believe in democracy and campaign finance reform, we must ban SuperPacs in primaries. I stand with progressive reformers advocating for this change. — PolitiTweet.org

This Labor Day, thank unions for - weekends - 8-hour workdays - a minimum wage - paid overtime - breaks during work - the right to strike - child labor laws - workplace safety standards Now, let us grow the trade union movement and win more for workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

This Labor Day, I want you to remember that you are not just a cog in the billionaires' machine. You are a member of the working class. You have dignity. Now is the time to organize and fight back. https://t.co/AzoTacPT5l — PolitiTweet.org

On Sunday the Chilean people can vote for a new constitution, replacing the old anti-democratic one written by the dictator Pinochet with a new one guaranteeing rights to health, housing, education, and a habitable planet. I am proud to support this effort. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

As workers, when you stand together, you don't have to beg, you don't have to plead. In solidarity, you've got power. You can win. That's what the bosses know, that's what the bosses fear, and that's exactly why we've got to grow and strengthen the trade union movement. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

When we talk about why the standard of living of American workers has declined so much in the last few decades, understand that it has occurred at exactly the same time when membership in labor unions has also declined. Unions are the last line of defense against corporate greed. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Two people — just ✌️ — own more wealth today than the bottom 40% of American society. No one can tell me from a moral perspective or from an economic perspective that it makes any sense at all that so few have so much while so many have so little. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

All workers in this country are entitled to a decent standard of living. That is not a radical idea. — PolitiTweet.org

LIVE NOW: In the United States, and across the Atlantic, working people are united in being sick and tired of working longer hours for lower wages while the rich get richer. Join us LIVE from London NOW as we stand together. https://t.co/rvnZ0zwSpY — PolitiTweet.org

Here in the United States, and across the Atlantic, working people are united in being sick and tired of working longer hours for lower wages while the rich get richer. Enough is enough. I look forward to joining @RMTunion in London at 2 PM ET to rally to save public transit. — PolitiTweet.org

I stand with @seiuhcpa nursing home workers who are ready to strike at two of the biggest chains in Pennsylvania. Owners must bargain in good faith and put taxpayer money toward resident care — not use those dollars to keep buying new facilities. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Rail companies are bringing in billions in profits. There is no reason — none — that workers should see stagnating wages, higher health care costs, and face unsafe conditions on the job. https://t.co/FVDSw90CjJ — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Maybe — just maybe — we want to have a government in this country which works for all of us, not just the people on top. https://t.co/iI3aLpvxdN — PolitiTweet.org
