LIVE: Some very powerful special interests tell us the cost of combatting climate change is just too expensive. Compared to what? We're holding a Budget Committee hearing NOW on the cost of inaction on climate change. https://t.co/mHSTh3M2Rp — PolitiTweet.org

The Budget Committee tomorrow at 11 a.m. will hold a hearing on the cost of inaction on climate change. But it won't be Big Oil who pays the price. If we do nothing, climate change will push millions into extreme poverty, disproportionately in communities of color. https://t.co/J6cSD2AHOs — PolitiTweet.org

We are seeing record levels of hunger in the richest nation on earth. We cannot continue to prop up a grossly unjust economy in which the very rich get much richer while millions of working families struggle to afford the most basic necessities of life. — PolitiTweet.org

I applaud President Biden for making the brave and right decision to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan and bring an end to the longest war in our country’s history. https://t.co/kDHp566tVI — PolitiTweet.org

A nation will not survive morally or economically when so few have so much and so many have so little. It is time for CEOs to pay their fair share of taxes, and treat their employees with dignity and respect. — PolitiTweet.org

While fossil fuel companies get rich off destroying our planet for future generations, American taxpayers are forced to cough up $15 billion per year in direct federal subsidies to the fossil fuel industry. How does that make sense? — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The 20 biggest fossil fuel companies are responsible for more than one-third of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions in the modern era, while raking in massive profits. — PolitiTweet.org

Workers should not be intimidated, or badgered by a company because they are exercising their constitutional right to form a union. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The fact that the company was able to force workers to attend closed door, anti-union meetings is just one reason as to why we need legislation that finally gives workers a fair chance to win organizing elections. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

It also appears that some of Amazon's anti-union efforts may have been in violation of NLRB law. And that is something that the union is addressing with the NLRB right now. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I am disappointed but not surprised by the vote. It is extraordinarily courageous for workers to take on one of the world's wealthiest and most powerful corporations, a company that spent unlimited sums of money to defeat the organizing effort. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

At a time of massive income and wealth inequality, and when workers have little power on the job, I applaud the pro-union Amazon workers in Alabama for their courage and willingness to stand up for their rights. They’ve inspired workers everywhere. — PolitiTweet.org

If the CEOs of ExxonMobil, Chevron & BP think they can continue to put their short term profits over the future of the planet, they have another thing coming. Working together, we will take on the greed of the fossil fuel industry, combat climate change & create millions of jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S.-backed Saudi war in Yemen has created the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. I join with my colleagues in calling on the Biden administration to demand an end to the Saudi blockade and allow desperately needed aid into the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The Republicans say that we cannot afford to invest in health care, education, housing, nutrition and the basic needs of working families. I say that we cannot afford to give trillions in tax breaks to the rich and large corporations and spend $740 billion a year on the military. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

In this country, there is an understanding that the level of income and wealth inequality we have now is unsustainable and immoral. The time is long overdue to demand the wealthiest people and the largest corporations in America start paying their share of federal income taxes. https://t.co/LUWWP5VGJU — PolitiTweet.org

Average price of a hearing aid: Over $2,400 Cost of a set of dentures: Over $2,500 Cost of prescription eyeglasses: Over $200 Median income of seniors: About $2,200 a month In the richest country on earth, we must expand Medicare to include vision, hearing and dental care. — PolitiTweet.org

Let's be clear: 70% of tipped workers are women. We will not have equal pay for equal work until we increase the $2.13 sub-minimum wage - which has not gone up in 30 years - to $15 an hour and adopt one fair wage. We must end the crisis of starvation wages in America. https://t.co/fIGfoGg3Nq — PolitiTweet.org
