China, with one-third our per capita income, leads on electric vehicles and renewable energy, while Trump says climate change is a hoax. A Green New Deal would invest in building our electric buses, trains and cars here in America with good union wages. https://t.co/XzUylFg4ij — PolitiTweet.org

For the millions of DREAMers and TPS holders whose lives have been thrown into chaos by Mr. Trump’s bigotry, we have got to pass this legislation now. I call on Senator Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to bring this bill to the floor for a vote immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

LGBTQ people face unacceptable workplace discrimination and abuse. I say to the huge corporations rainbow-branding themselves for #PrideMonth: Pay your employees fairly. Let them unionize. Support their right to health care. Do not cheapen the struggle for dignity and freedom. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Let's not forget that the middle class was built by organized labor. I am very concerned to see that @BuzzFeed still hasn't recognized the union formed by its newsroom employees. Our Workplace Democracy Act will put an end to corporations getting away with these stalling tactics. — PolitiTweet.org

I cannot understand this way of thinking from White House advisor Jared Kushner. It is not moral to have benefitted from the safe haven America provided our parents and grandparents fleeing violence, only to then slam the door shut on today's refugees. https://t.co/ve5tA6rhjr — PolitiTweet.org

I believe it is wrong to charge Americans astronomical prices for life-saving drugs developed with taxpayer dollars. You will not find me encouraging pharmaceutical companies to continue ripping off Americans like my Republican colleagues. https://t.co/tMSudxwDyM — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: It is outrageous that the Walton family makes more in one minute than a Walmart worker earns in a year. It is not radical to end taxpayer subsidies for this wealthy corporation and have it pay its employees a living wage of $15 an hour. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

22 Senators just voted for an extreme budget to cut Medicare and Medicaid IN HALF, throwing millions off their health care, while extending Trump's tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. When Republicans tell us who they are and what they want for this country, we should believe them. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Big surprise: Under Trump, another head of a federal agency who is supposed to serve the public good is actually furthering family and business interests. The corruption and nepotism of this administration, from Trump on down, never ends. https://t.co/Ti5R8E0C5u — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

3,000 of our fellow Americans died in Hurricane Maria. Instead of being allowed to recover, Puerto Rico faces cuts to health and education. We must stop treating the island as a colony. Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens and deserve to live with dignity. https://t.co/Zu76Wu5OJS — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump administration serves one group of people in America: the top 1%. https://t.co/BufLiSditT — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I applaud New Hampshire for becoming the 21st state to abolish the death penalty. Too many innocent people, particularly racial minorities, get caught up in this unjust policy. A civilized society shouldn’t be involved in the murder of other Americans. https://t.co/CmRoIJlDfh — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

More proof that this administration wants to rig the 2020 Census to undercount minorities—and they’re trying to cover it up. The census must not be turned into a partisan weapon. Immigrant communities have a right to equal representation and funding. https://t.co/6Vtmdf1rXD — PolitiTweet.org

The 2008 Wall Street bailout was never meant to help ordinary people. It only emboldened Wall Street’s greed, recklessness and fraud. Bonuses went up, no one went to jail. That’s why I voted against it. It’s time to break up the big banks once and for all. https://t.co/b0Wl1UD2MM — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Nonpartisan experts confirmed to @HouseBudgetDems that #MedicareforAll could offer universal coverage, lower costs, and stronger wages. I applaud @USProgressives @RepJohnYarmuth, @RepJayapal and @RepRoKhanna for holding this hearing to build the case for health care as a right. https://t.co/bXnzSTzrLo — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

How sick is Trump's revolving door? The current head of the EPA protecting our air is Andrew Wheeler, an ex-coal lobbyist. Before him, Scott Pruitt ignored his own scientists to make Wisconsin breathe in more smog. Now he works for the coal industry, too. https://t.co/tDIE4zq2Ky — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

In support of our wonderful “ally,” Saudi Arabia, Trump has provoked war with Iran and kept us in an unconstitutional war in Yemen. Instead of giving the Saudis more bombs, he should take a hard look at the brutal, antidemocratic regime he loves so much. https://t.co/02w58VLXxr — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

If Eddie Lampert has enough money to buy a $130-million, 288-foot yacht, he damn well has enough money to pay the $43 million severance package he promised to the workers at Sears, whose jobs were destroyed as a result of his greed and mismanagement. https://t.co/b2v9ALpC9F — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

How can it be that six migrant children have died in U.S. custody in the last eight months? In the previous decade, this hadn't happened even once. We need an investigation. Trump's racism, xenophobia and incompetence cannot be allowed to continue. https://t.co/7XLfiQTWyI — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

As a candidate, Trump promised he'd stop outsourcing good-paying American jobs. He lied. Instead, by protecting their patents, Trump is trying to make it easier for corporations like Pfizer, GE, Boeing and Microsoft to ship more American jobs to China. https://t.co/1mfrFh1ayF — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Nurses know better than anyone how our for-profit health care system is incompatible with health care itself. I applaud @NationalNurses for their leadership to guarantee health care is a human right for all. https://t.co/TC5KV7Mp4w — PolitiTweet.org

In America today, the average student-loan debt for a four-year degree is over $28,000. When asked how big their student debt was, people from Denmark, Taiwan, Ireland, Brazil, the Philippines, Scotland, Turkey, and Canada all gave the same answer: $0. https://t.co/kRA465pbPS — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Given the reality that we have a president who believes he is above the law, Congress must continue its investigations. If the House Judiciary Committee deems it necessary, I will support their decision to open an impeachment inquiry. https://t.co/6lTVdcaTXc — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

McConnell said he’d fill a Supreme Court vacancy in 2020 after blocking hearings for Merrick Garland. What a hypocrite. Make no mistake about it, McConnell's goal has always been the same: lifetime appointments for extreme rightwing judges by any means. https://t.co/v7Pp2u6Ys9 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

This is insane: As Oklahoma and Arkansas face catastrophic flooding, and Ohio and Indiana reel from tornados, Trump is trying to undermine the very science that proves climate change is real. We need policy based on facts, not rightwing ideology. https://t.co/GfEb5O7G7Y — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

This is a public health crisis: The last remaining clinic in Missouri that provides safe, legal abortion could be shut down within hours. We must fight the extremists who, in state after state, are waging a war against women. https://t.co/959YySsbHT — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The establishment says there's no alternative to an unfettered capitalism that produces huge CEO bonuses while millions are paid starvation wages. They are dead wrong. Instead of more tax breaks to profitable corporations, let’s expand employee ownership. https://t.co/AOeqYmctem — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

.@AGWilliamTong and 43 other attorneys general have damning proof that major drug companies have been colluding on price, stealing billions from American patients and taxpayers. I look forward to working with him to ensure they are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. https://t.co/0PRs3xu4Jj — PolitiTweet.org

This Memorial Day, we say to veterans who came home from war that we honor your service, and we will make sure every man and woman who has served our country gets the very best health care they can through a strong Veterans Administration. https://t.co/e13IAmWf4C — PolitiTweet.org
