A lot of people talk about essential workers. It's time to actually listen to them. Join @ewarren, @aijenpoo & I tomorrow at 5:30p ET. We’ll be talking live to the workers who put their lives on the line everyday. #ProtectEssentialWorkers Register here: https://t.co/RFXRgth4v3 https://t.co/E7x1Q6mwkl — PolitiTweet.org

Climate change is the existential threat facing all of us. We have to act now to safeguard our planet for future generations. We must rise to the challenge. Now is the time to invest in renewables, creating good paying jobs and leading the world on climate action. #EarthDay https://t.co/PR0DIeF46e — PolitiTweet.org

The USPS could run out of money by September due to COVID-19. Privatization is NOT the answer. Postal banking would raise billions in revenue every year while providing Americans with access to basic banking services so they don't have to rely on payday loans. https://t.co/PE35cdmbnD — PolitiTweet.org

Let me get this straight: Trump has no problem with blanket bailouts for industries who spent millions on stock buybacks, but won't bail out the USPS? Could it be because conservatives want to accomplish their goal of privatizing the post office? https://t.co/5Cs7gFmAm5 — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The post office is losing money due to lack of volume. Americans are being forced to risk their lives to go to the ballot box in states where you can't vote via mail. Now is the time to pass national vote-by-mail. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

I stand in solidarity with the Amazon workers on strike today. They are risking their lives to keep the economy going. Providing PPE and paid sick leave shouldn't be too much to ask. This is why we need the Essential Workers Bill of Rights. https://t.co/oiNTWTlNdR — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

America should be a nation where anyone could succeed if they work hard, but economic mobility has fallen over the past five decades. Millennials are less likely to earn more than their parents and are also disproportionately impacted by this crisis. They need our help now. https://t.co/la1yP8H2fj — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

There are people in this Administration who think a single $1200 check is enough. To them, the millions of jobless Americans struggling to pay their bills are invisible. This is why @TimRyan and I want to put up to $2000/month in people’s hands for the duration of this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

🔹 33% of voters have lost a job or hours, or been put on leave or furlough, including 45% of black Americans 🔹 41% of those who have lost their job are having trouble with basic costs A one-time check is nowhere near enough. We must provide comprehensive relief immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

The only thing marijuana has been a gateway to is the criminal justice system for people of color. It's absurd that we continue arresting people for using a plant that is legal in 11 states. Here is our three step plan to end the prohibition of marijuana in America. https://t.co/Dz6BxK1de2 — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

While corporations receive blanket bailouts, not nearly enough has been done to help middle and working class Americans who are struggling. I am proud to join @AOC, @PramilaJayapal, @MarkPocan, and many others to demand that the next COVID-19 relief package #PutPeopleFirst https://t.co/CYTtflEiJ3 — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

We must legalize marijuana. We must expunge marijuana convictions. We must reinvest in the communities of color disproportionately impacted by the failed War on Drugs. This is a matter of justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Most people never recovered from the last economic crisis, while the wealthiest Americans are doing better than ever. Our COVID-19 recovery must avoid making these same mistakes by focusing on essential workers and the working class. https://t.co/v9vgHSiEbv — PolitiTweet.org

💰 83% of the benefits of the GOP tax plan will go to the top 1% by 2027. 💰 More than 80% of the benefits of the #COVID19 relief will go to millionaires. Our next stimulus bill must do the opposite and help the neediest among us. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

President Trump wants to re-open the country in just a couple of weeks. Possibly even before that. Here’s the problem: we still don’t have widespread testing capacity. Ending social distancing too early will just endanger the entire country. https://t.co/tZ2S9xkE7N — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

We refer to those working in grocery stores and the gig economy as heroes for risking their lives. It's important to understand that many of them are forced into this position to make ends meet. Every single worker must be provided with COVID-19 protection & at least $15/hour. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Brilliant call to action by @pmarca. We need to Build America’s Future! I don’t agree with Marc on quite a few specifics but we should all be inspired by the broader goal and invest in our human capital. https://t.co/iojzaDGLdj — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Can we finally put this ridiculous myth that vote-by-mail elections would help Democrats more than Republicans to rest? This is not about a partisan advantage. It's about keeping voters, poll workers, and their communities safe from COVID-19. https://t.co/hrc5y877mV — PolitiTweet.org

When you eat a meal, think about all those who are working on farms and in meatpacking plants. When ordering delivery, think about those who work in grocery stores, restaurants & as drivers. Essential workers are risking their lives to feed us and they need our support. — PolitiTweet.org

Greenland's ice sheet is melting quicker than at any time since 1948. While we deal with the COVID-19 crisis, we can't ignore the climate crisis. We must make bold investments in renewables, cleantech, and high-speed rail all across America. https://t.co/M9wYsoIk4D — PolitiTweet.org
