Is it acceptable to you that while 2 people own more wealth than the bottom 40% in this country, half our people live paycheck to paycheck, seniors are unable to hear or to see the world around them, and new moms are guaranteed ZERO paid days to spend with their baby? — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
This is what oligarchy is all about. The billionaire class and large corporations are working overtime to defeat the Reconciliation Bill, the most significant legislation for working people since the New Deal. Their greed has no end. This is why we need a political revolution. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the labor movement, workers have weekends, 8-hour workdays, paid overtime, a minimum wage, breaks during work, the right to strike, workplace safety standards, and child labor laws. This #LaborDay, we must recommit to growing the union movement in this country. — PolitiTweet.org

Today in America: - the two richest people own more wealth than the bottom 40% - the top 1% owns more wealth than the bottom 92% - 45% of all new income has gone to the top 1% since 2009 Is that the kind of economy any working person ought to be satisfied with? — PolitiTweet.org

The fossil fuel industry is spending millions to defeat the reconciliation bill and the provisions in it which will transform our energy system. They must not be allowed to succeed. The future of the planet is more important than their greed and profiteering. — PolitiTweet.org

The rich are getting much richer. They’re off buying spaceships and zooming around space. Yes, we are going to make them pay their fair share. No apologies to be made. https://t.co/poLUpaVqzv — PolitiTweet.org

People understand that at a time of horrific income and wealth inequality, when half our people live paycheck to paycheck, that the wealthiest people must pay their fair share of taxes, and that we should use that new revenue to improve life for middle class and working families. — PolitiTweet.org

How on earth can we continue to ignore the destructive forces of climate change? https://t.co/1e79AazgR3 — PolitiTweet.org

In 2020, 1 in 10 in-person early voters in Harris County, Texas used drive-thru voting to cast their ballot — making it significantly easier to participate in our democracy. Republicans in Texas just banned that practice. Unacceptable. We must pass the For The People Act. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Republicans go on and on, "Ohhh, Bernie and the Democrats are gonna raise taxes!" You know what? Yeah. You're right. At a time when billionaires in this country don’t pay a nickel in federal income tax in a given year — we are going to raise taxes on the billionaire class. — PolitiTweet.org

How does this sit with you? In America today, you've got 30 laws already enacted in 18 states which restrict access to the vote. Got that? On top of that, more than 400 bills restricting voting access have been introduced in 49 states. Our job now: pass the For The People Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Here is the situation. Right-wing state legislatures in states all over the country are working overtime to roll back voting rights, to prevent people of color, the poor and working class from being able to vote, all to subvert the very notion of democracy. We must fight back. — PolitiTweet.org

Here is the situation. You've got right-wing state legislatures in all 50 states working overtime to roll back voting rights, to prevent people of color, the poor and working class from being able to vote, all to try to subvert the very notion of democracy. We must fight back. — PolitiTweet.org

Terrorism has been, and remains, a very serious issue. But, in fighting terrorism, we must be smart & not make a bad situation worse. According to a recent report, our 20 year war on terror has killed over 900,000 people and cost $8 trillion. That's not smart. We must do better. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
I know these are troubling times. Never, ever lose your sense of outrage. But you must also never give up the hope that through struggle and through solidarity, we can win a better world. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
A recent poll found over 60 percent of people making under $50,000 a year support our reconciliation bill. Why? Because whether you are a working class Republican, Democrat, or Independent, at the end of the day, you want the federal government to finally respond to your needs. https://t.co/VCv1HzZE7Z — PolitiTweet.org

The special interests right now are flooding Capitol Hill trying to defeat us. The drug companies are trying to defeat us. The fossil fuel industry is trying to defeat us. The billionaire class is trying to defeat us. If we stand together, and fight — we're going to win. — PolitiTweet.org

You do not need a crystal ball to know our future if we continue our inaction on climate change. Our future will include more floods. More wildfires. More heatwaves. More extreme weather occurrences. And for what? The short-term profits of the fossil fuel industry. ENOUGH. — PolitiTweet.org

It is absolutely imperative that we end the obscenity of some of the wealthiest people in this country and the largest corporations, in a given year, not paying a nickel in federal income taxes. — PolitiTweet.org

We had over 2300 people join us Friday night in Indiana to discuss how our Budget Reconciliation Legislation will create millions of good-paying jobs and address issues in this country that have been ignored for far too long. Watch the discussion now: https://t.co/n7FUwRh3YJ — PolitiTweet.org

The immense devastation caused in Louisiana and in Mississippi by Hurricane Ida will become our new normal unless we get our act together and take bold action to combat climate change NOW. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to the over 700 people who joined us in Cedar Rapids to discuss the need to boldly address the many crises facing working families today. If we stand together, we can not only solve the issues we face, but we can also move this country forward in the fight for justice. https://t.co/ipTITRrxcv — PolitiTweet.org

NOW is the time for Congress to have the courage to stand up to the powerful big money special interests that have such enormous power over the economic and political life of our country. Join our town hall LIVE in Iowa. https://t.co/Mn6sDbsd3B — PolitiTweet.org

I am traveling to Cedar Rapids today to speak with voters about the most significant piece of legislation to benefit working families since the New Deal and the Great Depression. I hope you can join us today for this crucial discussion. RSVP: https://t.co/ns0FtziWzs https://t.co/rQyO9flIWH — PolitiTweet.org

"This was the first time I had any type of government invest into me." After receiving the pandemic unemployment assistance as part of the American Rescue Plan, Cody and his kids were able to live with dignity. Yes, our government can and must work for all. https://t.co/8mK8yNkbQI — PolitiTweet.org

Sadly, I know there are many Republicans in Congress who believe that climate change isn't real, and believe that we shouldn't do anything to address it. Let me be clear: doing nothing on climate change is not an option. We must lead the way in the fight against climate change. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
Our Budget Reconciliation Bill likely won't get ONE GOP vote — the same Republicans who voted for massive tax breaks for billionaires & voted to throw over 30 million people off the health care they have, will not provide any help to improve life for working families. Pathetic. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders
If we disagree on the issues, that's fine — get up, make your case, win the votes! But do not be cowardly and try to prevent people from voting just because they're going to vote against you. YES — we must pass the For The People Act and make it easier to vote in this country. — PolitiTweet.org
