Rather than subsidize the insurance industry's profits, we can pursue a simpler, cost-effective, and comprehensive solution for health care. For the duration of this pandemic, Medicare should cover all out-of-pocket expenses for all Americans. Here's how: https://t.co/NEFrpFhWu2 — PolitiTweet.org

Half a million people are sleeping on the streets. 15 million children live in poverty. ⅓ of Americans lack adequate health care. In my view, being a human being means you are entitled to a roof over your head, to a doctor and medicine, and to a dignified standard of living. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The Trump Administration's failure to require everybody to wear masks in airports and airplanes will only lead to more sickness and death. Flight attendants and airline workers should not be forced to put their lives and health at risk. Enough is enough. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Doctors are getting fired as America faces the highest number of coronavirus deaths on Earth. Who can still defend a health care "system" dominated by profit and greed? It is time to do what the majority of our people want and establish a rational, Medicare-for-All program. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

How in the hell does Carnival, a cruise ship company that pays virtually no federal income taxes, receive a bailout, but the Postal Service, the most popular government agency in America, does not? The Post Office is essential. Cruise ships are not. https://t.co/cb9k0E291u — PolitiTweet.org

Mental health care is a human right—now more than ever. https://t.co/o9dOkVxx54 — PolitiTweet.org

More than one out of every four doctors in America are immigrants. What an utter disgrace. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

$282,000,000,000. That's by how much America’s billionaires increased their wealth in less than a month, while over 22 million lost their jobs. This system of unfettered greed is morally obscene. It’s time to put working families first—not billionaires. https://t.co/KAsOVJgbKX — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Millions of families need federal help right now for the food, shelter, income, and health care they need. The absolute last thing Congress should be doing is shoveling money to boost the profits of arms manufacturers like Lockheed and Raytheon. https://t.co/lhz0CpYmqA — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

It is disgusting that Trump would exploit this pandemic to bust postal unions and privatize the most popular government agency in America. If we can bail out large corporations, we can damn well save the Postal Service and protect these essential jobs. https://t.co/ObYKqnqPsS — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I find it reprehensible that Amazon is firing employees who speak out against unsafe working conditions during this horrific pandemic. These workers will not be silenced. https://t.co/rivxCetNQT — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Leader McConnell: You cannot give $500 billion to bail out large corporations and then tell state governments to go bankrupt fighting this deadly pandemic. Whatever that is, it is certainly not the leadership the American people want. https://t.co/FfZJCZSm2S — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Here's an idea for @JeffBezos: Instead of handing out t-shirts, maybe, as the richest man on Earth, you can provide all of your workers with paid sick leave, hazard pay, protective gear, and a safe and sanitary workplace. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Remember: we are still the only major country to not guarantee health care to all its people. We've got work to do. https://t.co/xPaEHEF3Nl — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Republicans tucked in a $170 billion tax break for 43,000 people making over $1 million into coronavirus relief. That's more than all aid for states and cities. @RepLloydDoggett and @SenWhitehouse are right: We have got to repeal this obscene giveaway. https://t.co/g2xvoMHzVa — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe—just maybe—the most essential people in our economy are not hedge fund managers. Could it be that they are doctors, nurses, EMTs, grocery store workers, workers in drug stores, farm workers, and truck drivers? Let us begin to rethink some of our priorities. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

More Black and Latino people are dying from coronavirus because air pollution is worse in their communities. That is unconscionable. It is not a radical idea that clean air and water should be the right of all Americans regardless of income and skin color.https://t.co/zG2KIvn96Z — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Trump's Earth Day plans? Ignore science, exploit a pandemic to roll back environmental protections, and hand out favors to the fossil fuel industry. Let us celebrate the 50th #EarthDay by standing together and tackling these crises head on. https://t.co/iVRrZQy1Hx — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

To prevent further economic collapse, Congress must make sure every worker in America keeps receiving his or her paycheck and benefits during this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

This pandemic is devastating the Navajo Nation, which already struggled with poverty, lack of running water and inadequate medical care. Indigenous communities like the Navajo Nation cannot be neglected any longer. Congress must provide full federal support to make them whole. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

We have trillions in funding for endless wars. We can damn well find the money to make sure our people are able to feed their families and pay their bills. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I got involved in politics because I never again want to see humanity descend into the barbarity of the Holocaust. On Holocaust Remembrance Day, let us recommit to the struggle we're all involved in to create a world where people love and care for each other. https://t.co/Ekh3vr9bYh — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

President Trump has failed to listen to science and we have all suffered because of it. Let's be serious and prioritize our health over the bank accounts of billionaires and large corporations. https://t.co/5sbBXTCvb8 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Big Oil has proven that it cannot operate without causing health, environmental, and economic crises. Our job: Ensure that oil workers have health care, pay, and pensions as we rapidly transition away from fossil fuels. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

When tens of millions of Americans are losing their jobs while the rich get even even richer, it is outrageous that the Republicans slipped a $170 billion tax giveaway to the top 1% in the last emergency relief bill. This tax loophole must be repealed. https://t.co/CgfUs3inKI — PolitiTweet.org

It makes no sense for young people to be denied jobs because they were arrested for smoking marijuana. It is time to legalize marijuana, expunge past marijuana convictions and end the failed war on drugs. https://t.co/KimMYKoLAn — PolitiTweet.org

A furloughed German worker retains 90-100% of his salary, while his American counterpart is struggling to obtain unemployment benefits. Unacceptable. Congress must cover the paychecks of every U.S. worker. https://t.co/PCMY0tgmw0 — PolitiTweet.org
