@finneyk I like Elizabeth Warren's plan more, but the tuition-free college plan that Bernie Sanders proposed on May 19, 2015 was funded through a tax on Wall Street transactions. That's also the funding mechanism outlined in Pramila Jayapal's house companion bill for free college. https://t.co/p9tzZgWukj — PolitiTweet.org

@finneyk I agree. But instead of repeating GOP-style talking points about terrorists Democrats could focus on calling for the universal right to vote for all American citizens as is the case in Maine and Vermont and 18 countries including Canada.

Interesting exchange between @finneyk + @mehdirhasan on Bernie calling to end the disenfranchisement of all Americans who are incarcerated. Democrats should be careful about slipping into the same kinds of narratives that fueled the growth of the US prison population. https://t.co/lucZ3BsatS — PolitiTweet.org

"Of the 1.5m people in federal + state prisons (beige), less than 4,000 prisoners have the right to vote (blue)...a 500% increase in the prison population over the past 40 years, has meant a 500% increase in incarcerated voter disenfranchisement over the same period of time." https://t.co/u6tCjgtvgQ — PolitiTweet.org
