How has the outrageous cost of prescription drugs affected your life and the life of your family? — PolitiTweet.org

If you paid $14.99 a month for a Zoom Pro membership, you paid more to Zoom than it paid in federal income taxes even as it made $660 million in profits last year – a 4,000 percent increase since 2019. Yes. It's time to end a rigged tax code that benefits the wealthy & powerful. — PolitiTweet.org

63 percent of our workers are living paycheck to paycheck during this pandemic. Meanwhile, 664 billionaires got $1.3 trillion richer. Maybe – just maybe – it’s time to build an economy that works for all. https://t.co/fYr5V1XPLC — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe it’s a radical idea, but I believe a job should lift workers out of poverty – not keep them in it. — PolitiTweet.org

It is unacceptable that some of the largest corporations in America have paid nothing in federal income taxes after making billions of dollars in profits. It is unacceptable that billionaires are now paying a lower effective federal income tax rate than the bottom 90 percent. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

We’ve taken the first step in addressing the emergency situation facing working families. Now we’ve got to deal with our long-term structural problems. I hope Republicans join us, but if they don’t we must use our majority to get it done. https://t.co/quWHvhDVaS — PolitiTweet.org

The time is now for the wealthiest people and the most profitable corporations in America to pay their fair share of taxes. — PolitiTweet.org

My question for Jeff Bezos is simple: you are worth $182 billion, so why are you trying to make it harder for your workers to organize for higher wages and better benefits? What is your problem? https://t.co/KkfwRjqiEQ — PolitiTweet.org

I’m outraged by last night’s murders in Atlanta. Over the last year, racist violence against Asian Americans has increased sharply, and women have borne the brunt. This must end now. — PolitiTweet.org

At a time of massive income and wealth inequality, the American people are demanding that large, profitable corporations pay their fair share of taxes and treat their employees with the dignity and respect they deserve. That is what this legislation will begin to do. — PolitiTweet.org

There is overwhelming support for ending starvation wages in America, and two-thirds of people believe we must raise the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour. The Congress must act, and act NOW. https://t.co/BzTrQzM4gA — PolitiTweet.org

Jeff Bezos, one of the richest people on the planet, can’t make it to our hearing this week on income and wealth inequality. But I still want to know why he is spending so much to stop workers in Alabama organizing for better wages and working conditions. https://t.co/vv0bK2Y6NI — PolitiTweet.org

I'm sorry Mr. Bezos won't join our hearing on income and wealth inequality. As the wealthiest person on earth I'd love to hear his reasoning as to why he is vigorously opposing a union organizing effort at Amazon which would improve wages and benefits for struggling workers. — PolitiTweet.org
