Join us LIVE as we discuss the agenda of the Senate's Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. Now is the time for Congress to show the American people that our government can work for them, and not just the 1%. Let’s do it. https://t.co/HzOrcIDt9D — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Today, I joined with my Democratic colleagues on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee to invite Starbucks CEO @HowardSchultz to testify at a hearing on his company's labor practices. https://t.co/C04euT5Vf1 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Let me congratulate @BMWEDIBT and @TCUnionHQ for guaranteeing paid sick days for 5,000 rail workers at CSX. Now it's time for the entire rail industry, which made over $26 billion in profits last year, to provide at least 7 paid sick days to every rail worker in America. — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden tonight gave a strong speech addressing many of the challenges our country faces. I look forward to working with him to take on powerful special interests and create an economy that works for all, not just the few. — PolitiTweet.org

Teachers have one of the toughest and most demanding jobs, and we must stand up and support them. Join me for a town hall this Monday at 7:15 p.m. ET at the U.S. Capitol on the teacher pay crisis in America with NEA President @BeckyPringle and AFT President @rweingarten. https://t.co/Sb602g4UQq — PolitiTweet.org

Just another reason why we need a Medicare for All, single-payer system. — PolitiTweet.org

Today’s earthquake has killed at least 2,500 people in Turkey and Syria. Many of those affected were already displaced by war. Hundreds of U.S. search and rescue personnel are being deployed to assist, and we must continue to offer help to those in need in the coming weeks. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

For 30 years, the Family and Medical Leave Act has protected workers’ right to take unpaid time off work to care for themselves and their family. Yet, the U.S. is the only major nation that doesn’t guarantee paid leave for workers. That must end NOW. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

How does it happen that a billionaire pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $160,000 a year? The American people want to expand Social Security, not cut it. https://t.co/XzXKCPU1ed — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

All workers have the right to unionize without fear of retaliation. I’m proud to stand with striking YouTube Music workers who are standing up for fair working conditions and return to office policies. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

It is an outrage that every Republican voted to remove @IlhanMN – a third term Muslim American woman – from the Foreign Affairs committee. Our job is to unite the American people, not divide them based on their race and religion. What a disgraceful day for the House. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I stand in solidary with Temple @TUGSA_6290 grad student workers who are striking for fair pay and benefits. If Temple can afford to pay its football coach $2 million per year, it can afford to pay its grad student workers a living wage and decent benefits. — PolitiTweet.org

Teachers do enormously important, difficult work. They need to be respected. We need to attract young people in college to go into the profession. Yes, it is time to raise the salaries of America's teachers. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I will soon introduce legislation to extend Social Security's solvency for the next 75 years & expand benefits by $2,400 a year. It is long due time we expand Social Security. https://t.co/Ehe0fVblqP — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Under Trump, Republicans gave tax breaks to the very rich and large corporations. Now they’re saying they’re worried about the national debt and want to cut Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Absurd. https://t.co/0H4ULS4rde — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

.@IlhanMN is once again facing ugly personal and political attacks with incredible courage and dignity. It is outrageous that the House leadership wants to boot her off the Foreign Affairs Committee. Fair minded Republicans must join Democrats in preventing that from happening. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The Boston Globe is right. The Biden Administration should not allow Moderna to more than quadruple the price of the COVID vaccine to $130 when it costs just $2.85 to produce. The COVID vaccine must be used to save lives, not to further enrich the billionaire owners of Moderna. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Cost of a single dose of Humira for arthritis: US: $3,216 Italy: $526 Germany: $420 France: $248 No. Abbvie should not have been able to jack up the price of Humira in the US by over 470% since 2003 - allowing it to make $114 billion in 6 years. We must end this corporate greed. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Tyre Nichols should be alive. Yes, the police officers who brutally murdered him must be held accountable. But even their conviction on the strongest possible charges cannot bring Tyre back. We must do everything in our power to end police violence against people of color. — PolitiTweet.org

Let me be clear: We must expand, not cut, Social Security. https://t.co/5iLlXYYoN3 — PolitiTweet.org

As the new chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, I am going to do everything I can to protect the needs of the struggling working class. https://t.co/zD7mym97KP — PolitiTweet.org

CEOs of the largest corporations make nearly 400 times the average worker. That is a disgrace. https://t.co/KQLV4dSLs8 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I applaud the DOJ’s lawsuit against Google. Right now – in sector after sector – we have more concentration of ownership than at any time in the modern history of this country. Let’s break up monopolies wherever they exist & create an economy that works for all of us, not the 1%. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

24 days into 2023. 39 mass shootings in America. 39. How many more people have to be senselessly murdered before Congress acts boldly to take on gun violence in this country? — PolitiTweet.org

On some of the most important issues facing our country today, the American people – whether Democrats, Republicans, or Independents – are quite united. https://t.co/ZrR7Zk5G4x — PolitiTweet.org

A life-saving drug is not effective if a person who needs that drug cannot afford it. How many more Americans must die before Congress finally has the guts to stop the pharmaceutical industry from getting away with murder? https://t.co/UI4lKXHVRB — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

It is literally beyond belief that 50 years after Roe v. Wade, in the year 2023, we are still debating whether women can control their own bodies. Congress must act to codify Roe v. Wade and make abortion safe and legal again. — PolitiTweet.org
