It’s time for Medicare to finally cover hearing, dental and vision care. https://t.co/Lzx5mIf3ki — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I applaud President Biden’s important action to raise the minimum wage for federal contract workers to $15 an hour. Congress should follow his lead and end starvation wages for the rest of the nation. Let’s get it done. — PolitiTweet.org

I sent a letter with 16 of my colleagues today asking President Biden to propose in his American Families Plan the most significant expansion of Medicare since it was signed into law to improve the lives of millions of Americans. https://t.co/SgS5XQOsPi — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

We must take on the greed of the pharmaceutical industry, lower drug prices and use the savings to expand Medicare by lowering the eligibility age and providing dental, hearing and vision care to tens of millions of older Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Recognition of the Armenian genocide is long overdue, and I applaud President Biden for this announcement. It is important for all of us to look honestly at history to make sure such atrocities never happen again. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Congratulations to the Delaware State Senate for voting to increase the state minimum wage to $15 an hour. Hopefully, Delaware's two U.S. senators will pay attention and help us raise the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour. Americans can no longer work for starvation wages. — PolitiTweet.org

I am once again asking President Biden to support a WTO waiver that would enable the sharing of life-saving vaccine technology with poorer countries. Join me LIVE now: https://t.co/yHwfnYppIS — PolitiTweet.org

Today with this historic vote and every day we stand in solidarity with the Asian-American community all over this country. We reject the hate and racism that’s led to an increase in anti-Asian violence, particularly against women, older people, and workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Unless we take bold action to transform our energy system away from fossil fuels and take on the climate crisis, our children and grandchildren are going to look back on this period in history and ask a very simple question: "Where were they?” — PolitiTweet.org

Fossil fuel profits are not more important than our planet. — PolitiTweet.org

In the 21st century, a free public education system that goes from kindergarten through high school is no longer good enough. The time is long overdue to make public colleges and universities tuition-free and debt-free for working families. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

It is absolutely unacceptable that hundreds of thousands of bright young Americans do not get a higher education each year, not because they are unqualified, but because their family does not have enough money. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

In the wealthiest country in the history of the world, a higher education should be a right for all, not a privilege for the few. If we are going to have the kind of standard of living that the American people deserve, we need to have the best educated workforce in the world. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Our struggle now is about justice—not justice on paper, but real justice in which all Americans live their lives free of oppression. We must boldly root out the cancer of systemic racism and police violence against people of color. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The trauma and tragedy of George Floyd’s murder must never leave us. It was a manifestation of a system that callously devalues the lives of Black people. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The jury's verdict delivers accountability for Derek Chauvin, but not justice for George Floyd. Real justice for him and too many others can only happen when we build a nation that fundamentally respects the human dignity of every person. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Wealthy campaign contributors gave $3.4 billion – with a "b" – to candidates and causes since 2009. That's what holds in place our rigged, corrupt economic and political systems. The time is now to get big money out of politics, and move to the public funding of elections. — PolitiTweet.org

Justice for George Floyd, Adam Toledo, Daunte Wright and too many before them must include a national transformation that brings accountability for all officers who murder, including firings, criminal and civil penalties. — PolitiTweet.org

The Green New Deal for Public Housing addresses our climate and affordable housing crises together in a way that transforms our energy system, rebuilds public housing, and creates hundreds of thousands of good paying jobs in low-income and working-class communities. — PolitiTweet.org
