Health care inflation is right below school costs. And medical debt affects everybody. https://t.co/TLjA0gMyoc — PolitiTweet.org

I know there are different rules applicable in terms of executive authority but I think if you are going to forgive a portion of student debt other forms of debt should be on the table too. Medical comes to mind. — PolitiTweet.org

It also loosens the iron grip of party control. Think Lisa Murkowski voting to impeach Trump despite being up for re-election this year. She made it through the primary because it’s top 4 among all parties. Independent legislators doing what they think is right could be the norm. — PolitiTweet.org

Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang

You know how to actually achieve this? Non-partisan open primaries and #RankedChoiceVoting. If anyone can vote for anyone, legislators’ incentives shift to doing what they think the majority of people in their district want as opposed to the most partisan and extreme. — PolitiTweet.org

Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang

A healthy system would allow legislators to vote for things they thought would help people regardless of who is in power and who gets the credit, to be evaluated by the majority of their constituents, not party leadership or just the most extreme 10-15% of partisan voters. — PolitiTweet.org

But one of the critical weaknesses of a two-party system is that anger motivates voters, and what helps the other side hurts you, which sometimes leads you to want to deny victories that could help the American people. Good policy loses to good politics. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans are of course guilty of preferring issues go unresolved - think when Rubio proposed immigration reform only to get shouted down by his own party or David McKinley getting attacked for voting for the infrastructure bill. Compromise is the enemy for today’s Republicans. — PolitiTweet.org

Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang

There were Republican Senators who were open to codifying Roe v. Wade. The Democrats didn’t propose that bill - they proposed a messaging bill they knew wouldn’t pass. Good politics and good policy often differ in a system where any failure can be used to motivate voters. — PolitiTweet.org

Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang

Democrats have essentially given up on most of the country - the rural parts. Ditto the Republicans in most big cities and enclaves. You take this, I’ll take that. That’s not healthy. There needs to be a real, genuine choice in more communities. Let’s go provide one. @Fwd_Party https://t.co/t2KoQj3TbQ — PolitiTweet.org

The wind has shifted as Democrats are now set to be competitive in the Fall in trying to keep both the House and the Senate. It’s a different picture than it was even weeks ago. https://t.co/G48Cv2OWUm — PolitiTweet.org

I wrote up Dems helping Trump get Peter Meijer out of office despite Peter voting to impeach and facing death threats to do so. That kind of principle should have been elevated. https://t.co/JeRb0CToGe — PolitiTweet.org

David mentions Dems spending money to elevate extremist election-denying primary candidates who are more beatable in the general. The institutions of democracy take a back seat for most in a two-sided system; the priority becomes winning because the other side is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org
