Moderna received $400M in public funding to develop a COVID-19 vaccine. They want to charge up to $37/dose. This is nothing new. Public funding went into every drug approved by the FDA for years and Americans pay the highest prices for prescriptions. https://t.co/Q7sNSmdQnv — PolitiTweet.org

For millions of Americans, a one-time $1,200 check won't even cover the monthly rent. 28 million people are on the brink of losing their homes. We need a nationwide eviction moratorium, rental assistance & a full extension of enhanced unemployment NOW. https://t.co/SpBfMxDxj1 — PolitiTweet.org

Unemployment benefits aren't a "disincentive to work." They are the only lifeline for the millions of Americans who don't have enough money to pay rent and buy groceries. We need action now: extend the $600/week enhanced unemployment for the rest of the year. https://t.co/TEi1HmHjwk — PolitiTweet.org

Positive COVID-19 test rate by country: 🇺🇸 7.6% 🇯🇵 6% 🇫🇷 1.7% 🇮🇹 1.3% 🇩🇪 0.8% 🇳🇴 0.7% 🇬🇧 0.6% 🇰🇷 0.5% 🇳🇿 0.1% A high positive test rate means that we aren't testing nearly enough people. We must use the Defense Production Act to mass produce tests in the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump's executive orders: ✅ Cut extended unemployment benefits ✅ Defer payroll taxes ✅ Fail to extend the eviction moratorium Now he wants to cut the capital gains tax to help the elite. What about the millions of Americans who are struggling? https://t.co/K2oVEVwpAr — PolitiTweet.org

Even with the PPP in place, tens of thousands of small businesses have shut down since COVID-19 began. Now that the program has completely dried up, even more small firms are in danger of closing. Help the small businesses who drive our economic growth. https://t.co/oo0Le8Oril — PolitiTweet.org

Number of children in America who have tested positive for COVID-19: 🔹 Since the beginning of the pandemic: 340,000 🔹 Last two weeks of July: 97,000 The decision on whether or not to open schools should not be based on politics. It should be based on keeping people safe. — PolitiTweet.org

I was excited to join @BenjaminPDixon last week to discuss what @CoriBush's impressive victory means for the progressive movement and the bold changes we need right now to help Americans survive this pandemic. Watch the interview here: https://t.co/st8uZHYoEx — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Here it is. The ultimate goal of Donald Trump's efforts to dismantle the USPS. There are 46 states where voters could be disenfranchised because ballots arrive too late to be counted. Unacceptable. We must fully fund USPS and remove DeJoy immediately. https://t.co/zRsMKsOXTe — PolitiTweet.org

I demand that Congress immediately subpoena Postmaster General Louis DeJoy. We need immediate answers as to why he's slowing down mail and dismantling mail sorting systems three months before a vote-by-mail election during a pandemic. Is he helping Trump steal the election? — PolitiTweet.org

My NO vote on the platform is for every person who has ever had to ration medication or lost a loved one because their procedure wasn't covered. America must rectify the cruel injustice of a system that denies health care as a human right. Medicare for All will be our future. https://t.co/TFxKmOvFQg — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Proud to cast my vote for @BernieSanders. I voted no for the rules reforms to democratize our party. I cannot in good conscience support a platform that does not have Medicare for All in the midst of a pandemic. It should never have been stripped from our platform in 1980. https://t.co/FullDZuiHM — PolitiTweet.org

How can Uber and Lyft claim that tech workers are employees but drivers who are essential to their business model are independent contractors? Rideshare drivers deserve the same benefits and workplace protections as everyone else. https://t.co/D1kIAavY5D — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you @TerriGerstein for helping inform my perspective on this! — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The USPS is under attack by Republicans and the Trump administration. The new Postmaster General is a major GOP donor whose new policies are already delaying mail service. People depend on the postal service more than ever before during COVID-19. We must #SaveUSPS. https://t.co/TtLM2gEoY7 — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The Postmaster General shouldn't be allowed to hold millions in a company that is profiting from USPS contracts. This is a clear violation of ethics. Louis DeJoy is unfit to be Postmaster General and must be removed. https://t.co/AKFXQEMIa4 — PolitiTweet.org
