The four largest banks in America—Bank of America, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, and Wells Fargo—are on average 80 percent larger than they were before they were bailed out by American taxpayers. Our job is to break them up. https://t.co/KJ0Ike6DEG — PolitiTweet.org

This man's doctor told him to delay treatment because of insanely high costs. Now he recognizes what 70% of Americans already understand: We need to join the rest of the developed world. We need Medicare for All. https://t.co/gVnueEvFkF — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

As a candidate, Trump said he'd protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Now he has an obligation to tell the American people: "I was lying. It was all just a campaign ruse." https://t.co/670Cl9exuI — PolitiTweet.org

I stand with the people of Puerto Rico demanding accountability and an end to corruption. After a decade of austerity, hurricanes and earthquakes, Puerto Ricans have a right to a responsive government and full federal support to put an end to this crisis. https://t.co/TQK83qIQFT — PolitiTweet.org

Nearly half a century ago, the Supreme Court affirmed abortion as a constitutional right. I am sick and tired of conservatives who say, "Get government off our backs," while telling women what they can do with their bodies. Women get to control their bodies—not politicians. https://t.co/SjN5WD3Fbv — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I congratulate Spain's government for declaring a climate emergency. The United States must now follow suit. My resolution with @AOC and @RepBlumenauer mobilizes America to defeat the existential threat facing humanity. https://t.co/Eu8gBa4c2d — PolitiTweet.org

Strong unions are key to solving the crises facing higher education. I am delighted to join @repmarkpocan in this effort to protect graduate student workers who are organizing for their rights. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

58 new abortion restrictions were enacted across the country in 2019. Laws like these are dangerous, regressive, and blatantly unconstitutional. On the 47th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we must continue to stand up for women’s reproductive freedom and protect access to abortion. — PolitiTweet.org

The free press is never more important than when it exposes wrongdoing by the powerful. That is why President Bolsonaro is threatening Glenn Greenwald for the "crime" of doing journalism. I call on Brazil to end its authoritarian attack on press freedom and the rule of law. — PolitiTweet.org

Doctors understand they cannot do their jobs healing the sick under our dysfunctional health care system. I thank physicians' group @ACPinternists and its 159,000 members, as well as @PNHP, for fighting to make health care a human right for every man, woman and child. https://t.co/u7LUgCvGK5 — PolitiTweet.org

Today is a sad day in history: the beginning of an impeachment trial for the President. It would be absurd to have a trial at 1 o'clock in the morning without any witnesses. I say to Senator McConnell: hold a fair trial with witnesses, in full view of the American people. https://t.co/nwbYh0IkIE — PolitiTweet.org

What Dr. King understood is that the only way you make real change—whether it is racial justice, social justice or economic justice—is when millions of people come together, stand up and fight back. #MLKDay — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

In 1968, Dr. King said “Now our struggle is for genuine equality, which means economic equality.” The minimum wage then was worth $10.15. Today, it’s $7.25. Our fight for human dignity must include making every job pay a living wage of at least $15 an hour. #MLKDay — PolitiTweet.org

To truly honor Dr. King we must fight to carry out his radical and bold vision for racial and economic justice in America and transform our national priorities. The struggle continues to this day, and our work is far from over. #MLKDay https://t.co/2HvceuTIbV — PolitiTweet.org

"When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism, materialism and militarism are incapable of being conquered.” -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Riverside Church, 1967 https://t.co/izRzi65ln8 — PolitiTweet.org

-In the 1980s, 40% of Taiwan's population lacked health insurance -Despite some skepticism, Taiwan implemented a single-payer health care system -2020: Everyone is covered. They pay about $12 for comprehensive care. We can and must achieve Medicare for All in the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

How can it be that millions of people live in poverty while working full time in the world’s richest country for the world’s richest companies? How can we tolerate this? The answer is clear: pay every worker at least $15 an hour and let them unionize. — PolitiTweet.org

Marijuana must be legalized. All our people imprisoned because of it must be returned home to their families and their records expunged. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m proud of my state, Vermont, for leading the nation in considering making free school meals universal for children. In the richest country in the history of the world, “lunch debt” for hungry kids trying to learn at school should not exist. https://t.co/pGQ8EFKH1I — PolitiTweet.org

Unreliable electricity and water, untreated wounds, vermin. These prison conditions are intolerable. We lock up more people—disproportionately Black and brown—than any other country on Earth. We need comprehensive prison reform as a matter of racial and social justice. — PolitiTweet.org
