This is a democracy. We can disagree on all kinds of issues, but taking away the rights of Americans to vote and to participate in our democracy is absolutely unacceptable. Period. — PolitiTweet.org

In 1965, half of all seniors over the age of 65 had no medical insurance. The passage of Medicare ended that injustice. Now, in 2021, we can continue to fulfill the promise of Medicare by expanding it to include dental care, eyeglasses, and hearing aids. Let's get it done. — PolitiTweet.org

Right now, New Yorkers can elect leaders from district attorney to public advocate to city council who will fight for a New York that works for working families, not developers and the wealthy elite. Early voting is already underway and Election Day is Tuesday — go vote, NYC! https://t.co/oNzF72kmEx — PolitiTweet.org

In my view, there is no compromise when it comes to protecting the right to vote. We must stop the onslaught of voter suppression and make it easier, not harder to vote in this country. — PolitiTweet.org

While GOP legislatures are working overtime to deny Black Americans and young people the right to vote, this is what Mitch McConnell says: "I’ve taken a look at all the new state laws—none of them are designed to suppress the vote." That’s why we must pass the For the People Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Vision care is health care. Dental care is health care. Hearing care is health care. That's why we must expand Medicare to cover dental care, eyeglasses, and hearing aids. — PolitiTweet.org

I do not think it is too radical an idea to say that keeping teeth in your mouth should not be a luxury. Medicare must be expanded to include dental care, eyeglasses, and hearing aids. — PolitiTweet.org

We must take on the greed of the pharmaceutical industry, allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices, and save taxpayers some $600 billion. We can then use those savings to expand Medicare to cover dental, vision and hearing aids and lower the eligibility age to 60. — PolitiTweet.org

We cannot continue on endlessly negotiating with Republicans, particularly when they are completely unserious about anything significant.
