In the fight against climate change, we have a choice: protect the profits of the fossil fuel industry or protect the future of our children. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
We must end a rigged system that allowed the former CEO of Gilead to become a billionaire by charging $1,000 for a Hepatitis C drug that was developed by the VA, costs $1 to manufacture & can be purchased in India for $4. No more excuses. Congress must lower drug prices NOW. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
At a time of massive and growing income & wealth inequality and as the top 1% has more wealth than the bottom 92%, now is the time to demand that the wealthy and large corporations pay their fair share so that we can begin to address the long neglected needs of working families. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
Now is the time for Congress to show courage and stand up to the greed of the pharmaceutical industry. The American people will not accept surrender.” — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
Nonetheless, the American people are demanding that Congress stand up to them and finally lower the outrageous price of prescription drugs by requiring Medicare to negotiate with the pharmaceutical industry. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
The pharmaceutical industry has spent over $4.5 billion on lobbying and campaign contributions over the past 20 years and has hired some 1,200 lobbyists to get Congress to do its bidding. They are the most powerful industry on Capitol Hill. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
Meanwhile, one out of five Americans cannot afford the prescriptions their doctors write, and thousands die each year because they lack the money to buy the medicine they need. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
Year after year, the pharmaceutical industry makes extraordinary profits and provides their CEOs with obscenely high compensation packages. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
The good news is that the full Congress must and will do far better. At a time when the drug companies are charging us by far the highest prices in the world, Congress must demand that Medicare negotiate prices with this extremely greedy and powerful industry. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
I'm very disappointed in the vote today on prescription drugs by the House Energy and Commerce Committee. I get that the pharmaceutical industry owns the Republican Party and that no Republican voted for this bill, but there is no excuse for every Democrat not supporting it. — PolitiTweet.org

If we can pass bold legislation NOW that invests in them, we can show the American people that government can work for all of us, and not just the wealthy few. https://t.co/bLh4oKZF4Q — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
This is what oligarchy looks like: The drug companies, the healthcare industry, fossil fuel interests and the very rich are spending millions to defeat our legislation to protect working families and create a progressive tax system. Enough is enough. Their greed must be defeated. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
Here in Washington, when we go to war: there's endless amounts of money Tax breaks for billionaires: endless amounts of money But when we want to support working American families, suddenly we don't have enough money. Unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Physical infrastructure is terribly important. But I also think that the needs of the human beings of our country – working families, the children, the elderly, the poor – are even more important. We can and must take care of both. — PolitiTweet.org

20 years later, we pause to remember the thousands of lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the bravery of so many first responders who put their lives at risk to save others. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
I have absolute confidence that if we have the courage and the determination to stand together and fight for justice, not only can we address the enormous crises that we face, but I believe we can move this country in a much stronger and better direction. https://t.co/o8gr8P6E6S — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
At a time of massive wealth and income inequality, we can no longer tolerate a rigged tax system that allows the top 1% to avoid $163 billion in taxes that they owe. Yes, we will demand that the 1% pays its fair share and we will use that revenue to invest in working families. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
The science is clear: if we do not address climate change now, we will suffer greater and more frequent climate disasters and the Earth will become increasingly uninhabitable. It’s time we listen to scientists, not the fossil fuel industry. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
Yes, we are going to raise taxes on large, profitable corporations – many that in a given year don’t pay a nickel in federal income tax. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
For too many years the government has been there for the wealthy and the powerful. Now is the time for the government to be there for the working families of this country. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
On this Labor Day we thank the trade union movement for their ongoing struggle for justice. Yes. Every American is entitled to the right to join a union, decent wages and benefits, affordable housing, health care and educational opportunity. Let us go forward in solidarity. — PolitiTweet.org
