The proliferation of facial recognition is why we need tech regulation. When tech moves too quickly, it comes at the expense of everyday Americans. We need common sense tech regulation and oversight. https://t.co/gn2UPb6Dy9 — PolitiTweet.org

24 million low-income renters pay more than half of their income in rent. No one should have to forego basic necessities—from child care to food on the table—to keep a roof over their head. If we’re going to tackle income inequality, raising the wage is a no-brainer first step. — PolitiTweet.org

Imagine watching this heatwave across the west this week and thinking that we don’t need to prioritize climate in the infrastructure deal? Enough with the calls to compromise. If it doesn’t tackle climate change, there won’t be a deal. — PolitiTweet.org

A $15 minimum wage would raise the pay for the parents of nearly one-fifth of U.S. children. That’s 14.4 million children. Let’s #RaiseTheWage. — PolitiTweet.org

If our country is going to truly respect the rights of all, respecting the freedom of gender expression is the first step. I was proud to help this happen, and am grateful to have @HRW and others support our legislation. Let’s keep moving forward. https://t.co/uDf0NqmMbm — PolitiTweet.org

From 2009 to 2021: Average monthly rent: $808 ⬆️ $1104 Average monthly health insurance costs: $161 ⬆️ $456 Minimum wage: $7.25 ↔️ $7.25 What’s wrong with this picture? We must raise the wage. — PolitiTweet.org

We’re living in a world where it gets so hot that streets buckle, and so cold that whole power grids crumble. Any serious infrastructure package must confront the climate crisis head on. No climate, no deal. — PolitiTweet.org

Bezos, Zuckerberg, and Brin could double the wealth of America’s bottom 50% — and still have $72 billion left in their bank accounts. Fix the system. Tax the ultra rich. https://t.co/ScFmeRDQLQ — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats have a choice. We can either leave voting rights up to a conservative Supreme Court, or we can pass voting rights protections with 51 votes in the Senate as an exception to the filibuster. History will judge us for whether we stand up for our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Just to be clear on this one: even 76% of Republicans support expanding Medicare to cover hearing, vision, and dental. This isn’t some niche proposal—it’s supported by a supermajority of Americans. We must expand Medicare now. https://t.co/fXqNdlmlIO — PolitiTweet.org

When we give taxpayer-funded subsidies to the oil industry, this is exactly what we’re helping them pay for: shady lobbying to block progress on climate legislation. Let’s end fossil fuel subsidies. https://t.co/uLtYetEkyD — PolitiTweet.org

Since 2000, rich families have increased their wealth by 33%. Poor families lost 45% of theirs. The economy has worked primarily for the rich for far too long. — PolitiTweet.org

First, we saw devastating cold in Texas. Now, we’re seeing devastating heat in the Pacific Northwest. The effects of climate change are playing out in real time. Americans are trusting us to tackle this head-on. We can’t let them down. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

We actually did have a plan for a bipartisan investigation into Jan. 6. Republican leadership still opposed it. The issue isn’t that Republicans disagree with the set-up of the investigation—it’s that they aren’t interested in an investigation at all. https://t.co/8qBo1mYdZm — PolitiTweet.org

A job that pays a living wage to cover the necessities and that allows for advancement. That’s what it looks like when an economy works for everyone. https://t.co/q0dYEumM6s — PolitiTweet.org
