You know what? If Kroger can afford to pay its CEO over 900x MORE than their median worker, then yeah, they can afford to pay their workers a decent wage, provide decent benefits, and invest in safe working conditions. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
When people tell you that the economy is doing very well — very well for who? Yeah, the people on top have never had it better. But the reality for working people is that wages for the average worker have barely budged in DECADES. — PolitiTweet.org

Here is the simple truth: we can save lives and we can save money if we make sure that all of our people have the best quality masks available to them — free of charge. https://t.co/HlimSsZFF2 — PolitiTweet.org

In the richest country in the history of the world, it should not be a luxury to take paid time off when you get sick. — PolitiTweet.org

I stand in solidarity with @NYMagUnion workers. Management must come to the table and agree to a fair contract now. — PolitiTweet.org

The Democratic Party has a fundamental question to ask itself. Are you prepared to stand with struggling working families all over this country? Do you have the guts to take on the moneyed interests whose greed has caused such enormous pain for so many? Which side are you on? — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
I stand in solidarity with the 8,400 striking workers at Kroger in Colorado. If Kroger can afford to pay its CEO over $20 million and spend $1 billion on stock buybacks, you know what? It can afford to pay its workers better wages and benefits with safe working conditions. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
What is it called when CEOs who are paid millions of dollars say to their workers, 'You know what? You've got it too good. You don't deserve to make a decent wage. You don't deserve decent benefits.' I call it class warfare, and in solidarity, the working class can win that war. — PolitiTweet.org

Every American deserves a high-quality N95 mask to protect themselves from this virus. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Here is the reality for the working class. Half our people live paycheck to paycheck. People risk their lives, risk exposure to COVID to go to work. 90 million are uninsured or underinsured. And because of the power of money, that economic reality is going ignored in Washington. — PolitiTweet.org

Not all masks are created equal. https://t.co/eLtBkbfk5c — PolitiTweet.org

As a society, we have got to ask ourselves if we are comfortable living in a country where the top 1% own more wealth than the bottom 92%. This is not just an issue of economics — this is an issue of our morality. — PolitiTweet.org

Not all face masks are created equal. N95 face masks are far more effective than cloth masks in preventing the spread of COVID. We must utilize the Defense Production Act to mass produce these masks and distribute them to every household in the country. — PolitiTweet.org

One out of four Americans are unable to afford the prescription drugs they need. Yes, it is time for Congress to take on the greed of the pharmaceutical industry which charges us, by far, the highest prices in the world. https://t.co/nZHoXImZbS — PolitiTweet.org

A CEO should not be paid 350x what the average worker at the company is paid. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
When we talk about income and wealth inequality in America today, this is what we're talking about. Right now, the two wealthiest people own more wealth than the bottom 40%. Got that? TWO PEOPLE own more wealth than 40% of our people. Is that remotely acceptable to you? — PolitiTweet.org

It is a difficult task to stand up to your boss and to take on corporate greed in your workplace, but workers in West Virginia, in Alabama, in California, and all over this country are leading that fight. https://t.co/x0SszXmnLW — PolitiTweet.org

In the 1950s, CEOs made about 20x more than the average worker. In the 1980s, CEOs made about 40x more than the average worker. Today, the CEOs of this country are making 350x more than what the average worker makes. — PolitiTweet.org

The average worker, when adjusting for inflation, is making $44 a week LESS today than they made in the 1970's. — PolitiTweet.org

I have been told that bold action to avert the climate crisis is 'too expensive,' or that it's 'too radical.' I am once again asking, when 40% of our people live somewhere that has experienced a climate-related disaster in just the last year, what is the alternative? — PolitiTweet.org

What is the meaning of solidarity? I believe it means that nobody wants to be alone in this world. The idea that you can stand together with your fellow workers on the job and demand dignity — that is essential. https://t.co/PNsXQDXlmX — PolitiTweet.org

"How you can sleep at night when you have $7 billion and you want to take a $300 a month health plan from a kid in West Virginia, or Alabama, or California — I can't explain that." - Chad Thompson, @steelworkers Local 40 https://t.co/Ad5XMOF2qV — PolitiTweet.org

"It seems to me that companies are going to a turnover workforce — they don't have to give you the benefits if you're only going to be there for a short period of time. With a union, we set out to make it a career instead of a job." - Braxton Wright, @MineWorkers Local 2368 https://t.co/ITQEjZCVuu — PolitiTweet.org

"As of January 1st, we no longer have medical insurance." - Cristina Luján, @BCTGM 37 These workers are now going without health insurance in the middle of a terrible pandemic. This sort of corporate greed is totally unacceptable. https://t.co/cddvu6QqFx — PolitiTweet.org
