Given the parameters of what we understand as basic, comprehensive health care today, in my strong opinion, we are spending more than enough money to guarantee quality health care to all of our people. https://t.co/g5JAp0fon1 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

At a time when we pay the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs, isn’t it great that Pfizer had $1 million to give to the Kentucky Republican Party to expand its headquarters named for Mitch McConnell. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

No. Moderna should not raise the price of its COVID vaccine to $130. https://t.co/714Zxx51QN — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

A year after the Trump tax breaks for the rich were signed into law, 34% of large, profitable corporations paid nothing in federal income taxes. Now Republicans want to pay for the mess they created by enacting huge cuts to Social Security and Medicare. They will not succeed. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine discovery was funded by the taxpayers of this country. It costs Moderna about $2 to produce that vaccine. They now want to charge Americans over $100 a dose for that vaccine. That is absurd. https://t.co/OvL2A7Yq1H — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Now, in the midst of a continuing public health crisis and a growing federal deficit, is not the time for Moderna to be quadrupling the price of the COVID-19 vaccine. Now is not the time for unacceptable corporate greed. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

We should ask ourselves about the priorities of this country when year after year, we continue to spend billions of dollars on corporate welfare while 60% of our people live paycheck to paycheck. https://t.co/45T2zJnQqJ — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

I stand in solidarity with more than 7,000 @nynurses on strike at Mount Sinai Hospital & Montefiore Medical Center. If these hospitals could increase their assets by over $1 billion in 2021, they can afford to pay their nurses fair wages and treat them with dignity & respect. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Allow me to state the obvious: having 46 million people drowning in $1.8 trillion of student debt is not sustainable for working families, or for our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Southwest Airlines is a company which spent $5.6 billion on stock buybacks for wealthy shareholders while the workers who keep the airline running work 16-18 hour days and passengers are stranded during the holiday season. Unacceptable. https://t.co/bBpg1gdnaB — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Jane and I want to wish you and yours a safe and happy new year. In the year ahead, we must fight harder than ever to create a nation that leads the world in the struggle for peace, and for economic, social, racial and environmental justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Corporate greed is Southwest getting a $7 billion bailout during the pandemic & spending $5.6 billion on stock buybacks to enrich wealthy shareholders, while stranded passengers are threatened with jail time for the crime of trying to rebook canceled flights during the holidays. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Jane and I want to wish everyone a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

The American people should not be forced to pay the highest prices on the planet for prescription drugs. https://t.co/yoQMntUvAz — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

The Republicans are right. 60% of workers are living paycheck to paycheck. Meanwhile, the federal minimum wage remains at $7.25 an hour – a starvation wage. Will Republicans work with us to raise the minimum wage to a living wage? Let’s see. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

All across the country, academic workers are ruthlessly exploited by very wealthy universities. But now they are standing up and fighting back. https://t.co/4tYe9jKrrY — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

I stand in strong solidarity with Starbucks workers on strike today. It is absurd that Howard Schultz — a guy worth BILLIONS of dollars — is pulling out all the stops to deny decent wages and dignity on the job to the very workers who helped him amass his wealth. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

I voted against the $858 billion Pentagon budget because it’s time to invest in health care, jobs, housing and education – not more weapons of destruction. https://t.co/2dTYskCLRe — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Workers are courageously standing up to corporate greed. Congress must have their backs. https://t.co/99mIpvgQpZ — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

The billionaire class? Doing phenomenally well. Huge corporations? Enjoying record profits. Working families? Falling further and further behind. Yes, it’s time Congress prioritized the needs of our people. https://t.co/Axj6dRiyiH — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

The staff at The New York Times are fighting for a living wage and fair pay — something that is not so radical when the company just approved $150 million in stock buybacks for its investors. https://t.co/xAD902YKIm — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

I want to congratulate @SBWorkersUnited on the one-year anniversary of the first unionized Starbucks shop in the country. Your courage continues to inspire us. To Starbucks ownership: treat your workers with respect and negotiate a fair first contract NOW. https://t.co/RTXt57p3rv — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

The American people desperately need high-quality journalism, and journalists and newspaper staff need a fair contract. I urge the ownership of the New York Times to bargain in good faith with @NYTimesGuild, and pay their workers what they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Congratulations to @ReverendWarnock on his victory last night. Democrats in the U.S. Senate will now be in a position to pass important legislation addressing the needs of working families. Let's do it. https://t.co/g3DsouAeSB — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Congratulations to @RaphaelWarnock on his victory last night. Democrats in the U.S. Senate will now be in a position to pass important legislation addressing the needs of working families. Let's do it. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

It is unacceptable that while Rutgers University has an endowment of nearly $2 BILLION dollars, their workers are struggling to get by. I stand in strong solidarity with @ruaaup and the Coalition of Rutgers Unions who are fighting for fair wages, healthcare, and job security. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Where are all the great Constitutional Conservatives when a former president wants to terminate the Constitution in order to continue his Big Lie? — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

The United States, sadly, is the only major country on Earth that doesn't guarantee paid sick days. Pathetic. In a modern civilized society, it should be a no-brainer that if you or your family gets sick, you should have paid sick leave. End of discussion. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Here’s my message to Republican Senators who claim to be supporters of the working class: put up or shut up. https://t.co/LadouLTLg9 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

7 paid sick days for rail workers is not radical. https://t.co/D6mPtRIigz — PolitiTweet.org
