The U.S.-backed Saudi war in Yemen has created the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. I join with my colleagues in calling on the Biden administration to demand an end to the Saudi blockade and allow desperately needed aid into the country. — PolitiTweet.org

The Republicans say that we cannot afford to invest in health care, education, housing, nutrition and the basic needs of working families. I say that we cannot afford to give trillions in tax breaks to the rich and large corporations and spend $740 billion a year on the military. — PolitiTweet.org

In this country, there is an understanding that the level of income and wealth inequality we have now is unsustainable and immoral. The time is long overdue to demand the wealthiest people and the largest corporations in America start paying their share of federal income taxes. https://t.co/LUWWP5VGJU — PolitiTweet.org

Average price of a hearing aid: Over $2,400 Cost of a set of dentures: Over $2,500 Cost of prescription eyeglasses: Over $200 Median income of seniors: About $2,200 a month In the richest country on earth, we must expand Medicare to include vision, hearing and dental care. — PolitiTweet.org

Let's be clear: 70% of tipped workers are women. We will not have equal pay for equal work until we increase the $2.13 sub-minimum wage - which has not gone up in 30 years - to $15 an hour and adopt one fair wage. We must end the crisis of starvation wages in America. https://t.co/fIGfoGg3Nq — PolitiTweet.org

Lowering the Medicare eligibility age is not just the right thing to do, it's what the American people want. According to a recent Gallup poll: – 65% want to reduce the Medicare age to 60 – 60% want to expand Medicare to all Health care is a human right, not a privilege. — PolitiTweet.org

In the richest country on earth it's absurd that 75% of seniors who need hearing aids don't have one, 65% of seniors don't have dental insurance & eyeglass frames manufactured for as little as $10 cost over $230. We must expand Medicare to cover hearing, vision & dental care. — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe it's a radical idea in Washington, but no. I do not believe that the billionaire class should pay a lower effective tax rate than the middle class. A profitable corporation like Zoom should not be able to pay nothing in federal income taxes when its profits go up by 4,000%. — PolitiTweet.org

Since 1985, the average Wall Street bonus has gone up 1,217%. If the federal minimum wage had increased at the same rate as Wall Street bonuses, it would be $44/hour. Instead, it's remained stuck at $7.25 an hour for 12 years. We must raise the minimum wage to at least $15/hour. — PolitiTweet.org

There are millions of seniors who cannot afford dental care, hearing aids or eyeglasses. In the richest country on earth that is unacceptable. That is why Medicare must negotiate drug prices and use the savings to expand Medicare to cover these basic health care needs. — PolitiTweet.org

No. We will not allow Trump's handpicked Postmaster General Louis DeJoy to slow down mail delivery, cut hours at post offices and sabotage the Postal Service. We will expand and strengthen it. It is way past time to fire Mr. DeJoy. — PolitiTweet.org

Let's be clear. The legislation passed in Georgia is voter suppression. The Senate must quickly take up the voting rights bills passed by the House of Representatives. If we are serious about calling ourselves a democracy, we must make it easier for people to vote – not harder. — PolitiTweet.org

At a time of massive wealth inequality, the GOP estate tax repeal bill would give a $1.7 trillion tax cut to the top 0.1% & NOTHING for the 99.9%. It provides: $88B to the Walton family $71B to the Bezos family $64B to the Musk family Just what we need. Totally insane. — PolitiTweet.org

The GOP bill to repeal the estate tax would give the Walton family, the richest family in America and the owners of Walmart, a tax break of up to $88 billion. Does anyone really believe that we should be providing an $88 billion tax break to the wealthiest family in the country? — PolitiTweet.org

Vermont just got a HUGE investment in our community health centers. Nearly one-in-three Vermonters rely on them, and $33 million is an enormous amount of money. It represents a huge leap forward for Vermonters’ health care. https://t.co/tdOqV5lI4c — PolitiTweet.org
