Cost for one vial of insulin in 1996: $21 Cost for one vial of insulin in 2018: $320 Does anyone really think that makes any sense? No, it’s barbaric. — PolitiTweet.org

Let me remind my conservative Democratic colleagues who are concerned about fiscal responsibility, the Build Back Better Act will be fully paid for by taxes on the wealthy. The bipartisan infrastructure bill you voted for will add $256 billion to the deficit. Let's be consistent. — PolitiTweet.org

A rigged economy is Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos becoming $408 billion richer during the pandemic while, in a given year, paying nothing in federal income taxes. Yes, we must demand that the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes and finally create an economy that works for all of us. — PolitiTweet.org

The people want to lower drug costs. Big Pharma wants to stop us. The people want to expand Medicare. The health care industry wants to stop us. The people want to combat climate change. The fossil fuel industry wants to stop us. It’s time Congress listen to the people. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, conservative House Dems committed to voting for the Build Back Better Act no later than the week of Nov. 15th. Their constituents are watching. They must keep that promise. No excuses. Every Democrat must vote to address the needs of working families & climate change. — PolitiTweet.org

Rebuilding our crumbling roads and bridges by passing the infrastructure bill is important. Addressing the long-neglected needs of working families and climate change is more than important. It is transformational. Now, we must pass a strong Reconciliation bill. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2016, the chairman of Mylan received a $164 million compensation package after his company jacked-up the price of an EpiPen by 550% over a nine-year period. Let me repeat: it’s time to take on the greed of the pharmaceutical industry. — PolitiTweet.org

At a time of massive income and wealth inequality, the last thing we should be doing is giving more tax breaks to the very rich. Democrats campaigned and won on an agenda that demands that the very wealthy finally pay their fair share, not one that gives them more tax breaks. — PolitiTweet.org

As a result, the top 1% would pay lower taxes after passage of the Build Back Better plan than they did after the Trump tax cut in 2017. This is beyond unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org
