We can no longer ignore the reality that climate change is causing devastating destruction in our country and around the world. YES — action to avert the climate crisis is critical to our nation's infrastructure. We must act NOW. https://t.co/2A6NC7Wis6 — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump's tax bill in 2017: $750 Elon Musk's tax bill in 2018: $0 Amazon's tax bill in 2018: $0 Average American's tax bill in 2017: $12,200 We've got a tax code that is rigged in favor of the rich and large corporations. The time for them to pay their fair share is NOW. — PolitiTweet.org

Average paid leave for new moms in other major countries: 18 weeks Paid leave for new moms in the United States: Zero weeks We must guarantee paid family leave for all workers in this country. https://t.co/M7V7I6EVQ0 — PolitiTweet.org

I happen to believe in the radical notion that you should be able to grow old and hear the people around you, to keep teeth in your mouth, and to see the world around you. Let's expand Medicare to cover hearing aids, dental, and eyeglasses. — PolitiTweet.org

I spoke with @Indiawaltonbflo and congratulated her on a great victory. Her win in the mayoral primary is an important step forward for the working people of Buffalo, and shows the political power of an agenda that puts people first. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Do not let anyone tell you we cannot do big things in this country. We put a man on the moon — YES, we can take on climate change. We can guarantee health care as a right. We can guarantee child care and pre-K education to every child. Now is the time to think big, not small. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

We are going to: - lead the world in addressing the crisis of climate change and create millions of jobs - guarantee child care and pre-K education to every child in America - make the rich pay their faire share of taxes to fund it Our time is now. https://t.co/P2ArhJ2Q16 — PolitiTweet.org

I'm proud to stand with the @MSNBCunion. A clear majority of newsroom employees at @MSNBC and @TheChoice have chosen to organize with the @WGAEast, and the network should recognize the union without delay or division. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Republicans all across the country are touting the absurd position that the former president, Donald Trump, won the last election in a landslide, and zero Republicans are prepared to vote to support American democracy. That is the sad reality we face. https://t.co/zRLsQjIxQ2 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

It's not acceptable to me or to you that some of the richest people in this country do not pay a nickel in income tax. Our job is not complicated. It is to create a government and an economy that works for all of us, not the powerful. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

We must stand together and tell the billionaire class: our time is now. And no, we will not wait. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll be there soon because now is the time for our government to finally pay attention to the needs of the working class. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

You're a working class mom with a new baby, and you live in Canada. You know how many days of paid leave you get to spend with your baby? 119. If you're living just over the border in Detroit, you get ZERO days with your baby — in the richest country in the world. Unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Republicans refusing to even debate protecting our democracy is a total outrage. We can disagree on issues, but we should not disagree on whether or not Americans have the fundamental right to vote. https://t.co/bMF9x7dYc1 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

If you know of any Republican who wants to vote to support democracy, I'd love to see them, but as far as I can tell, there aren't any. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

We have a tax code in this country that allows multibillionaires to pay NOTHING in federal income tax. That is outrageous. It is time for them to pay their fair share. https://t.co/N50QpkSGSR — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

We are the only major country on earth not to guarantee paid parental leave. Is that acceptable? I think not. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Wages stagnant for over 40 years. Massive income and wealth inequality. No paid parental leave. Astronomical child care costs. 90 million uninsured or underinsured. Unaffordable prescription drugs. Does this really sound like the richest country on earth? — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

When we talk about democracy in America, we are talking about one person, one vote. What democracy is not about is a handful of billionaires using their wealth to buy our elections, or states suppressing the vote by denying poor people or people of color the right to vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

We cannot have a vibrant democracy unless we defend the right of all eligible voters to participate in our elections. That means stopping Republicans' voter suppression efforts. That means stopping the influence of dark money. That means passing the For the People Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

New York City needs leadership that will fight for the needs of working class families, not the financial interests of developers and the wealthy elite. It's Election Day TODAY and polls are open until 9 PM. Go vote, NYC! https://t.co/6YyykntYf2 — PolitiTweet.org

A fundamentally broken system rewards Jeff Bezos, the world's richest guy, with another $78 billion — more money than any one person could ever need — while Amazon workers work at breakneck pace in grueling conditions with no hazard pay and no paid sick leave. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Beginning on July 15, working class families will start receiving monthly payments as part of the increased Child Tax Credit in the American Rescue Plan. How will these payments impact you and your kids' lives? — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Jeff Bezos' life during the pandemic: - $78 billion richer - commissioned a super-yacht - is going to space Amazon workers' lives: - no hazard pay - no paid sick leave - spied on - underpaid On #PrimeDay, I say: enough is enough, Jeff. Treat your workers with dignity. https://t.co/mMBXwMVQua — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

What's going on right now is the very rich are doing phenomenally well and corporate profits are soaring, while working people are living paycheck to paycheck. NOW is the time to create millions of good-paying jobs by addressing our long-term structural crises. https://t.co/KseaMJMDp5 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Every year, 20 million people are displaced from their homes as a result of climate-fueled disasters. How do you go forward right now in this moment in history and not address the terrible climate crisis that we face and fundamentally transform our energy system? — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

At a time of massive income and wealth inequality, when the very rich are becoming richer, when two people own more wealth than the bottom 40% of America, there is something absurd that you have billionaires out there who are paying ZERO in federal income taxes. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

For decades now, the government has paid attention to the rich and the powerful. I think that now is the time to finally pay attention to the needs of the working class. https://t.co/UpQxEmyk1b — PolitiTweet.org
