The undemocratic fiscal control board of Puerto Rico is still working hand in hand with Wall Street, with a plan for more austerity and slashed pensions. The board must stop dictating Puerto Rico’s economic decisions and let the people decide their future. https://t.co/pon8S2cap1 — PolitiTweet.org

Today, millions of climate strikers, led by a global youth movement, showed politicians around the world that the demand for environmental justice is not going away. It is only growing stronger. Together, we will pass a Green New Deal. — PolitiTweet.org

Mr. Trump made a series of disastrous choices this week—decisions that tear at the fabric of what this country is about. This is one of them. We must not turn our backs on refugees fleeing horrific violence and persecution around the world. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

This Republican mayor leads the first city in Texas powered by 100% renewable energy. Addressing climate change and creating millions of good-paying jobs in the process should not be a partisan issue. https://t.co/5kk5iA1Jws — PolitiTweet.org

Make no mistake about it: Canceling student debt is an act of social, racial and economic justice. — PolitiTweet.org

It is the right of all people to protest for a better future. The Egyptian government should refrain from violence against protesters exercising this right. The world is watching. https://t.co/KAWIuBTuLK — PolitiTweet.org

Inequality in America is at its worst level in more than 50 years. Maybe—just maybe—it's time we start taxing the super-rich to ensure human rights for all Americans: housing, health care, education, retirement, good jobs, and a livable planet. https://t.co/TIanMupibp — PolitiTweet.org

As a corporate lawyer and lobbyist, Eugene Scalia made millions working for Chevron, Goldman Sachs, Facebook and other huge corporations, helping them undermine health and safety regulations. So naturally he's Trump's pick to lead the Labor Department. Obscene. — PolitiTweet.org

Medicare for All will lower overall health care costs. Meanwhile: 📈Family premiums are up 54%—$20,000 a year 📈Deductibles up 162%—$1,655 a year But I'm sure the American people getting robbed blind by the insurance industry are just thrilled these costs aren't called "taxes." — PolitiTweet.org

There is a metaphorical wildfire happening in our oceans that will devastate our planet’s marine ecosystems and coastal communities. We must immediately take aggressive action to address this global emergency before it is too late. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Trump's cruelty and xenophobia never stops: ICE wants to send women and moms back to a for-profit detention center where there is a pattern of suicide and abuse. I support the efforts of @RAICESTEXAS and other organizers to prevent this from happening. https://t.co/PiGFHUEKwG — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The President has left the House of Representatives no choice but to begin an impeachment inquiry. I believe impeachable offenses were committed, and the House will now lay out the case. No president is above the law, and it is our responsibility to safeguard the Constitution. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Trump is depriving 500,000 kids of their school lunches for no damn reason—even after 139 members of Congress warned him not to. I cannot begin to understand the casual cruelty that motivates Trump and his billionaire friends to harm vulnerable children like this. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The White House sent us their talking points around President Trump’s Ukraine call. For some strange reason, they forgot to mention that Mr. Trump said, “I would like you to do us a favor though” after Zelensky brought up military aid. https://t.co/60PMZ6aKcv — PolitiTweet.org

A message to Wall Street: We will investigate your corruption. We will not let you cut the schools, hospitals and pensions that the Puerto Rican people need to live with dignity and recover from Hurricane Maria. https://t.co/9Rqvy5EqnU — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

.@AOC and I stand with the Puerto Ricans who flooded into the streets to demand democratic control over their lives. Puerto Rico's working families have suffered enough austerity. It's time to impose some austerity on the banks destroying the island. https://t.co/qEOQ481FFT — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

When Mr. Trump blames immigrants for crime, he spreading a racist lie. Instead of frightening 11 million undocumented people with deportation, we need comprehensive immigration reform and a path to citizenship. https://t.co/AIC1fOk31n — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

While Trump and the GOP cut taxes for the top 1%, they want to return us to a time when workers could not engage in collective bargaining. Unions are the backbone of America's middle class. Graduate student workers must have the right to join a union and earn a living wage. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

What a disgrace that it takes a 16-year-old to tell world leaders what they won't acknowledge: We cannot continue with this type of ruthless capitalism that is destroying our planet. This is why we need young people leading our climate justice movement. https://t.co/uKpMUc2CMw — PolitiTweet.org

Today is Native American Women’s Equal Pay Day, which marks how long a Native woman has to work into 2019 to catch up to the same amount a white man made in 2018. We must continue the fight for pay parity. This is not a radical issue, this is an issue of fairness and justice. https://t.co/uWRnc1KUXc — PolitiTweet.org

General Motors made $11 billion last year. Their CEO was paid $22 million, nearly 300 times as much as their median worker. The workers who make GM’s success possible deserve health care and good wages. I know which side I'm on. https://t.co/jGjaexShcv — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Trump calls Egypt's Sisi his 'favorite dictator.' I believe the United States should stand for human rights, especially with governments that receive large amounts of US aid, as Egypt does. All people have the right to protest for a better future. Sisi should respect that right. — PolitiTweet.org

Dwight D. Eisenhower was not a radical socialist—he was a Republican. And in 1961, he tried to warn us about the "military industrial complex." https://t.co/WLbZ9U6NFG — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I am proud to stand with these civil rights organizations. In the fight for marijuana legalization, we must prioritize racial and economic justice—that means revenues from this industry must be invested in the communities that have been devastated by the so-called "war on drugs." — PolitiTweet.org

What gives me hope right now is this new generation of young people who dream big and do not want to settle for the status quo. #ClimateStrike https://t.co/wPEl9KGKds — PolitiTweet.org

More than 1,000 Amazon employees have courageously challenged the richest man in the world over Amazon's massive carbon footprint—and they have already achieved results. I want to thank them and workers around the world who are walking off the job today for climate justice. https://t.co/cBrfwbtyI6 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

For too long, the mainstream media has ignored science and given a platform to climate change deniers. I am glad they are finally starting to give this issue the attention it deserves, and I am calling on them to continue shedding light on the seriousness of this global crisis. https://t.co/thGMt6MKZs — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

It is unconscionable that amid global climate protests, tech giants like Microsoft are announcing major partnerships with Big Oil. We must hold them accountable, demand they break ties with the fossil fuel industry, and move rapidly to sustainable energy. https://t.co/GZb38RbiCE — PolitiTweet.org
