The 158-member House Republican Study Committee released a budget this year to: -Cut Social Security by $729 billion -Cut Medicare by $2.8 trillion -Give a tax break of up to $1.75 trillion to billionaires This is not how you improve the economy. This is how you make it worse. — PolitiTweet.org

Corporate greed is Shell making a record $21 billion in profits over the last 2 quarters and spending $26 billion on stock buybacks and dividends this year to enrich its wealthy stockholders while working class Americans struggle to pay $4, $5, $6 for a gallon of gas. — PolitiTweet.org

Jamie Dimon became a billionaire after his bank was fined billions for mortgage fraud, illegally foreclosing on military families & bribing foreign officials. Now, he's in Saudi Arabia to do business with a country partnering with Russia to damage our economy. Pathetic. — PolitiTweet.org

While the price of a bag of Snickers has more than doubled, Republicans want to give the Mars family, who became 44% richer during the pandemic and are now worth $106 billion, a tax break of up to $42 billion by repealing the estate tax. Yes. Trickle down economics is very scary. — PolitiTweet.org

Millions of Americans are right now struggling with the outrageous cost of child care and education in this country. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Listen to what Finland’s Ambassador had to say about what it looks like when a nation gets its priorities right. https://t.co/1VDlFdDsBd — PolitiTweet.org

This week, I had the chance to speak with the Finnish Ambassador and I asked him what can the U.S. learn from Finland? You can watch our full conversation here: https://t.co/6NQS97tsNN — PolitiTweet.org

After receiving billions in federal contracts, Pfizer wants to charge up to $130 for a COVID vaccine shot that costs as little as $1.18 to manufacture – 10,000% above cost. Enough is enough. The COVID vaccine should cost $0. Pfizer's greed is killing people throughout the world. — PolitiTweet.org

While the cost of Halloween candy has surged more than 13.1% since last September, the Mars candy bar family became 44% richer during the pandemic increasing their wealth by $32.6 billion. The Mars family is now worth $106.8 billion. Do you know what’s scary? Corporate greed. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
Corporate profits are at a 70-year high, median wages have gone down the sharpest in 25 years and corporations are spending $1 trillion on stock buybacks. Our goal must not be to "get wages down." Our goal must be to end corporate greed. The Fed must stop raising interest rates. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
It's outrageous that multinational corporations are demanding billions in new corporate tax breaks, including $2 billion for Raytheon. Instead, at a time when child poverty is spiking, we need to focus on supporting low-income families by extending the expanded child tax credit. — PolitiTweet.org

Inflation Rate 🇪🇺: 10.9% 🇩🇪: 10.9% 🇬🇧: 10.1% 🇮🇹: 9.4% 🇪🇸: 9% 🇮🇪: 8.6% 🇺🇸: 8.2% No. Inflation is not going up in the U.S. because the working class got a $1,400 check 19 months ago. Multinational corporations are jacking up prices worldwide. — PolitiTweet.org

The inventors of insulin sold their patents for $1 in 1923. And yet, the price of insulin in America has gone up by over 1,000% since 1999 causing 1.3 million diabetics in our country to ration insulin last year. It should not cost 10x more for insulin than it does in Canada. — PolitiTweet.org

The Republican "solution" to inflation is to hold the full faith and credit of the US government hostage unless they are able to enact huge cuts to Social Security and Medicare at a time when 55% of seniors are trying to survive on less than $25,000 a year. Outrageous. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
The Saudi Arabian regime treats women as third-class citizens, tortures civilians, and now is siding with Putin in the war against Ukraine. Yes, we must pull US troops out of Saudi Arabia, stop selling them weapons, and end its price-fixing oil cartel. https://t.co/7N7V0XaiNI — PolitiTweet.org

Let me congratulate the Apple Store workers in Oklahoma City for voting to become the 2nd unionized Apple Store in the US. Last year, Apple made a record $95 billion profit. Its billionaire CEO made $99 million in 2021. It's time for Apple to treat its workers with respect. — PolitiTweet.org

At a time when food prices are soaring as a result of corporate greed, it would be an absolute disaster to allow Kroger, the 2nd largest grocery store in America, to merge with Albertsons, the 4th largest grocery store in America. The Biden Administration must reject this deal. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
It's unacceptable that childcare workers are paid less than 98% of all occupations while childcare is unaffordable for 60% of families who need it. We must make pre-school free, make sure no family pays over 7% of their income on childcare & pay childcare workers a living wage. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
I stand in solidarity with Teamsters Local 320 at the University of Minnesota in the fight for better wages & working conditions. If UMN can afford to pay its president over $1 million and give her a 22% raise, it can afford to pay its workers a minimum wage of $20 an hour. — PolitiTweet.org

We owe Native Americans an enormous debt. From the first days of this country, they were lied to, their treaties violated, and their needs ignored. Today, on Indigenous Peoples’ Day, let us recommit to standing with them in the fight for long overdue justice. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
No, Chairman Powell. At a time when real weekly wages are lower today than they were nearly 50 years ago, the problem is not that wages and employment are too high. The problem is that corporations are making record profits by jacking up prices. We need a windfall profits tax. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
If Saudi Arabia, one of the worst violators of human rights in the world, wants to partner with Russia to jack up US gas prices, it can get Putin to defend its monarchy. We must pull all US troops out of Saudi Arabia, stop selling them weapons & end its price-fixing oil cartel. — PolitiTweet.org

I have long believed that marijuana should be legalized and those arrested for possession should be pardoned and have their records expunged. The President’s executive action today is an important step forward, but much more needs to be done. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
As someone who believes marijuana should be legalized and that those arrested for possession should be pardoned and have their records expunged, I applaud President Biden’s executive action. It is an important start and more must be done. I look forward to working with him on it. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
OPEC's decision to cutback on production is a blatant attempt to increase gas prices at the pump that cannot stand. We must end OPEC's illegal price-fixing cartel, eliminate military assistance to Saudi Arabia, and move aggressively to renewable energy. — PolitiTweet.org

It takes enormous bravery to go to the streets to protest Iran’s authoritarian “Supreme Leader.” But, led by courageous young women, that’s exactly what’s happening. I stand with all of those Iranians who are demanding freedom and a better future. — PolitiTweet.org

Brazil’s next president should be chosen by the voters of that country and no one else. It’s an important step forward for democracy that Brazil’s military leadership made clear yesterday that they will respect the results of Sunday’s election. — PolitiTweet.org
