There is something weird about a country where people search for the phrase "reconciliation bill" more than for "free dental." https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org

The pandemic is, amid its horrors, a once-in-an-eon chance to reinvent how we come together -- at work, in families, across communities. I have been waiting for this conversation between @priyaparker and @kristatippett. https://t.co/GZ0PDetoys — PolitiTweet.org

If our leaders and media actually told people what legislative proposals would do to our lives instead of hiding behind Orwellian process jargon like "reconciliation," people would be in the streets today, demanding these changes. Which is maybe why.... https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org

The way I see the story: A country full of pent-up, dented, dusty, deferred, frustrated, moribund dreams -- and a real prospect that millions of those dreams will at last have their moment. Abolish jargon. Talk of these dreams. https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org

Stop talking about “reconciliation.” Start talking about people’s sight and hearing and teeth and air and daycare and college aspirations and tap water. https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org

This is my plea. Whatever angle you arrive in the political conversation from, inside the arena or chronicling it: Speak to people. Use the words of their lives. Help them picture the futures being proposed. Help them smell the tomorrows up for debate. https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org

Here's the bottom line. You know what Congress is actually debating right now? The shape of your life. What you will know or not know, what your mom or dad’s health will be like, how your kids will breathe after you die, whether or not your dream of that business has a chance. — PolitiTweet.org

Save your process talk for the cloakroom and the newsroom. What are we — what are they — afraid would happen if, for once, we talked about the thing? https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org

There is something broken about the political discourse of a country where people search for "$3.5 trillion" more than "worker training" -- or "reconciliation" more than "clean energy." We are making people chase phantom words because we are not speaking to their lives. https://t.co/Mj1w3RKhSC — PolitiTweet.org

Instead, what words have filled your head recently? Reconciliation. BIF. BBB. $3.5 trillion. Manchin. Sinema. The filibuster. The debt ceiling. An obscure, obscuring, technical language that is almost designed to distract you from your daily reality. https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org

If the most sweeping version of these proposals pass, there are children who will soon taste clean water for the first time in their lives. Imagine their faces. That is the thing. https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org

So let's talk about the thing. Let's talk about the people who can't see but could soon. Who can't hear but could soon. Who will either lose teeth or won't. https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz https://t.co/XsU2PYbh8s — PolitiTweet.org

We are always talking around the thing. About the process that might or might not bring the thing. About the players advocating for and obstructing the thing. But we never, ever talk about the thing. — PolitiTweet.org

Something about this big debate in Washington has been bothering me, and I finally put a finger on it and pen to it. We have come to a place in American political life where we no longer talk about the thing -- the thing being people's lives. https://t.co/hqnj7OEARz — PolitiTweet.org
