How can anyone say they are "patriotic" and "love their country" when they refuse to act against the drought, flooding, forest fires and extreme weather disturbances which cause our nation so much destruction. Climate change is real. The U.S. must lead the way in combating it. — PolitiTweet.org

It is the working class of America that makes this country move. Not Wall Street stockbrokers. Not real estate speculators. Not hedge fund managers. Not billionaires. Not CEOs taking exorbitant compensation packages while cutting the benefits of workers. Workers have the power. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
In Congress, we have a very simple choice to make. Do we listen to 1,500 pharmaceutical industry lobbyists telling us to let them continue to rip off the American people, or do we listen to tens of millions of Americans who tell us we should lower drug prices in this country? — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
It is obscene that no member of the Sackler family, which profited for years from the sale of OxyContin and at the expense of the suffering of millions, has faced criminal charges for their actions. https://t.co/SmrnaWgjPd — PolitiTweet.org

NEWSFLASH: The overwhelming majority of the American people are with us. They want us to lower prescription drug costs. They want the wealthy to pay their fair share. We cannot let Big Pharma's lobbyists and the millions of dollars of dishonest ads from the ruling class stop us. https://t.co/jyiyRGX8Ev — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
When poll after poll tells us that the American people overwhelmingly support our efforts to dramatically lower the cost of prescription drugs in this country, what should we do? Easy answer: we summon the courage in the Congress to stand up to Big Pharma and end their greed. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
What we are talking about with our budget bill is not a “wish list." These are the real, material needs of the American people. Maybe, just maybe, it's time Congress delivered for the working class, not just the billionaire class. https://t.co/WiKA7mka1E — PolitiTweet.org

Profits at John Deere have skyrocketed by some 61% in recent years, while its CEO's salary has exploded by 160% since the start of the pandemic. Please do not tell me they cannot afford to pay their workers fairly. I am proud to stand in solidarity with @UAW members on strike. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Kellogg's made record-breaking profits and pays its CEO $12 million in compensation, but they want to slash pay and benefits for the workers who make the products. Enough is enough. I stand in solidarity with @BCTGM workers on strike for a fair contract and reasonable hours. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Solidarity forever. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Working class people in America have waited for decades while their needs were neglected by their government. I will not ask working parents, the children, seniors, the sick, and the poor to continue to wait just to satisfy the wants of a handful of billionaires and corporations. — PolitiTweet.org

And one out of four Americans can't afford to fill the prescriptions their doctor has prescribed them. Let's tax Mr. Musk and Mr. Bezos so that they finally pay their fair share of taxes, and invest that money into the many, many long-neglected needs of working class Americans. — PolitiTweet.org
CNN @CNN
Elon Musk's personal wealth is now $222 billion, widening his gap as the richest person in the world. Jeff Bezos,… https://t.co/U7tmPNgKVk

No, I do not think it's acceptable for a new mom in Detroit to be guaranteed ZERO days of paid leave to spend with her newborn, while just over the border in Canada, new moms are guaranteed 119 days. If Canada can guarantee paid leave to its people, why can't we? — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
.@IATSE members are the working class backbone of TV programs and films. The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers should negotiate a fair contract with these workers. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
88% of the American people want us to lower the price of prescription drugs 84% support expanding Medicare to cover dental, vision, and hearing 73% support guaranteeing paid family and medical leave 67% support universal pre-K for kids Good policy is good politics. Let's do it. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Does anybody seriously think we do not have a dysfunctional child care system in this country? Of course not. With the Build Back Better plan, we're finally going to make child care affordable for working families. https://t.co/sUBfMo2Hv3 — PolitiTweet.org

40 years ago, the establishment said I had "no chance" to become Mayor of Burlington — then we shocked the world. In June, @Indiawaltonbflo did the same, beating a four-term incumbent backed by corporate developers. Now let's help her win the general. https://t.co/o5RWTtvKxQ — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
I have traveled all across this country and spoken to many people. I have never heard a single person tell me that they appreciate the pharmaceutical industry continuing to rip them off and seeing to it that they continue paying the highest prices on earth for prescription drugs. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Question: why is it that the Build Back Better plan is so ruthlessly opposed by the entire ruling class of this country? Answer: because with this bill, we are showing that government can deliver for the needs of working class people, not just billionaires and corporations. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
I am more than a little tired of the pharmaceutical industry continuing to rip off the American people and forcing them to pay, by far, the highest prices on the planet for their prescriptions. Aren't you? — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
I believe that our kids and grandkids are entitled to inherit a planet that is healthy and habitable. "WOW! Bernie, that is radical stuff!" Sure it is, when for decades, the fossil fuel industry's greed has kept Congress from taking needed action on climate. Those days must end. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Take a second and think — have you ever in your life met an American who has said to you, "gee whiz I just LOVE paying the highest prices on the planet for my prescription drugs"? No, of course you haven't. We must finally allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Do I believe in an "entitlement society"? Yeah, I do. I believe that all Americans are entitled to a quality education, to affordable housing, to a decent standard of living. I do not believe that 2 people are entitled to block what the majority of the American people want. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Over the years, I have heard my Republican colleagues talk about "family values." Do they care that, today, the United States government ranks DEAD LAST in child care spending? Maybe, just maybe, the party of "family values" should support our efforts to invest in the children. https://t.co/fpL5vTkE2z — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
When you've got the support of the majority of the American people, the Democratic House and Senate caucus, and when you've got the support of the president — this is not some 50-50 deal. Two people cannot stand in the way of delivering for the working people of this country. https://t.co/iKCr571958 — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
The pharmaceutical industry is spending millions and millions of dollars on misleading ads, swarming Capitol Hill with their lobbyists to convince lawmakers that it's a-okay for you to continue to pay the highest prices on earth for your prescriptions — NO MORE. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
I get a little tired of Republicans telling me and telling you that we "can't afford it" when we talk about investing in the needs of working class people. You ever hear those people say we "can't afford it" when it comes to giving a billionaire another tax break? OF COURSE NOT! — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
We have the real possibility of creating unprecedented public policy which stands up for working families, the elderly, the children, the sick, and the poor — and defeats the greed of powerful special interests and the billionaire class — but only if we fight for it. https://t.co/cUUh6pvi98 — PolitiTweet.org
