I applaud this step by the Biden administration. The United States should lead the effort to vaccinate the world, not only by providing vaccines to poorer countries but also by helping to make the technology available for countries to produce it themselves. — PolitiTweet.org

For the last 48 years real wages for the working class in this country have been stagnant while the very rich have gotten much richer. Today, the top 1% own more wealth than the bottom 92%. Our job is to defeat oligarchy and create an economy that works for all, not just the few. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

If Republicans don't want to cooperate and help us seriously address the many crises we're facing today, then, yes, we have to move forward without them to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure and create millions of good-paying, union jobs. https://t.co/O8zySD4pRm — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. Senate is the only institution in the world where a vote of 59-41 can be considered a defeat instead of a huge victory. Enough is enough. Let us change the outdated rules of the Senate, end the filibuster and pass a bold agenda for working families with majority vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

On Memorial Day, we honor the brave Americans who gave their lives to defend our country. We reaffirm a grateful nation’s commitment to their loved ones, and to everyone who has served. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Let's be clear. If 10 Republican Senators cannot even vote for a bipartisan commission to investigate the January 6th insurrection, 10 Republican Senators will not vote for anything meaningful to improve the lives of the American people. We must abolish the filibuster & act now. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Republicans want a cold war with China because of its growing authoritarianism. That stance is coming from a party that refuses to acknowledge Biden's election victory, investigate the January 6th insurrection, and is working overtime to suppress the vote. What hypocrisy. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

If Democrats stand together to take on powerful special interests and do what so many working families of this country want us to do, we can create an economy that works for all, help save the planet from the ravages of climate change, and strengthen our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

We must move forward boldly, protect the working families of our country, and restore faith in our government. Yes, the future of the country is at stake. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

It's a painful day for American democracy that Republicans blocked the creation of a commission to investigate the Jan. 6th insurrection. I applaud the six Republicans who voted for the commission, but I am saddened that so many are too intimidated by Trump to do the right thing. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

College athletes are workers. They deserve pay, a union, and to own their own name, image, and likeness. We cannot wait for the NCAA to share its billions with the workers who create it. It is long past time we gave these workers the rights they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

This is an unprecedented moment in American history. The Democrats in Congress must move forward boldly, protecting the working families of our country and restoring faith in government. Yes, the future of the country is at stake. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

In state after state Republican legislatures are working overtime to suppress the vote and create outrageous gerrymandered districts. If Congress does not pass H.R. 1 and S. 1, millions of voters will be disenfranchised and Democrats will become a permanent minority party. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

When we landed on the moon, there was great collective pride in that achievement. Our space program should be something that we ALL take part in. We shouldn’t hand over $10B in corporate welfare to Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk, who are jointly worth $350B, to fund their space hobby. https://t.co/f1uLPXPjuR — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

By 2033, the United States is estimated to have a shortage of up to 139,000 physicians. That is what I mean when I say we’ve got a dysfunctional health care system. https://t.co/YvrgrLpXIX — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I'm live on the floor of the Senate discussing why I support expanding U.S. production of microchips and semi-conductors but don’t support providing over $50 billion in corporate welfare to large, profitable corporations with no strings attached. https://t.co/hWGOXfpGzW — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Today, we honor George Floyd’s life and mourn with his family. One year after his murder, we remain dedicated to rooting out systemic racism and police violence against people of color, and building a nation free of oppression that respects the human dignity of every person. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Yes. Congress should work to expand U.S. microchip production. No. As part of the Endless Frontiers bill we should not be handing out $53 billion in corporate welfare to some of the largest and most profitable corporations in the country with no strings attached. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

As the latest war in Gaza was raging, I convened a small group of experts to discuss the situation and steps that must be taken to prevent future violence. https://t.co/csHcvWQfpK — PolitiTweet.org

Total student debt of 43 million Americans: $1.8 trillion Total wealth of 719 billionaires in America: $4.56 trillion Our job: Cancel student debt, make public colleges and universities tuition free and have the wealthy and large corporations pay their fair share of taxes. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Unfettered capitalism is the Charles Koch family becoming $37 billion richer during a horrific pandemic while using their fortune not to alleviate homelessness or end child hunger in America, but to evict working families facing economic desperation from their homes. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Workers around the country are fighting for dignity on the job and making history. It is because of them that raising the minimum wage to a living wage is no longer a radical idea. I'm proud to stand with them – always. https://t.co/NDXDZoxbBH — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Let us hope that the ceasefire in Gaza holds. But that's not enough. Our job now is to support desperately needed humanitarian and reconstruction aid to Gaza’s people, and find a way to finally bring peace to the region. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

To understand this war, we must understand what the Palestinian people have been enduring under blockade and occupation. I believe we must stand in solidarity with those Palestinians and Israelis working to build a future of equality and peaceful coexistence. https://t.co/ehGddvsVS5 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Our health care system is dysfunctional in many ways, but one of the most critical is that we are facing a major doctor shortage. We're holding a hearing NOW on what Congress can do about it. https://t.co/qEzjIo6O3a — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I believe that the United States must help lead the way to a peaceful and prosperous future for both Israelis and Palestinians. We need to take a hard look at whether the sale of these weapons is actually helping do that, or whether it is simply fueling conflict. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

At a moment when U.S.-made bombs are devastating Gaza, and killing women and children, we cannot simply let another huge arms sale go through without even a Congressional debate. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm on the Senate floor NOW calling for an immediate cease-fire in Gaza. https://t.co/LkHMQKU1zg — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

If we are serious about spending taxpayer dollars wisely and effectively, we've got to end the absurdity of the Pentagon being the only agency in the federal government that has not passed an independent audit ever in the history of the country. That is the very least we can do. — PolitiTweet.org
