Knee replacements and heart surgeries aren’t drastically different in other countries. So why are major surgeries so much more expensive in the United States? Medicare for All will lower the astronomical costs of our system while guaranteeing healthcare as a human right. https://t.co/mryOR04g34 — PolitiTweet.org

We will not go back to the days before Roe v. Wade. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you for your consistent and principled voice @SenMikeLee in stopping the war in Yemen and now preventing a war with Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

Every American in the 21st century should have access to: 🏠 Housing 🔌 Electricity 🏥 Healthcare 🍽️ Basic nutrition 💻 High-speed Broadband 🎓 Education including colleges and trade schools — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The health of our economy shouldn’t be measured simply by the stock market. It should be measured by the fact that hundreds of thousands of Americans are going bankrupt due to medical costs and 40 percent can’t afford a significant emergency expense without going into debt. — PolitiTweet.org

@jjoeaz @mattgaetz It takes congressional authorization like we had to go after the terrorists who attacked us on 9/11 and Osama Bin Laden. I strongly supported that. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The question is not whether we can afford to pay to address climate change. The question is do we pay for decisive action now or do we pay to clean up the damage from strengthening storms, droughts, and wildfires? Bold climate action costs less than doing nothing. — PolitiTweet.org

This list of cities that will reach a $15/hour minimum wage in 2020 shows the power of the #FightFor15 movement. While progress continues to be made, too many Americans are still being left behind. In 2020, I will keep fighting for a $15/hour federal minimum wage. https://t.co/y0U6xuKH6D — PolitiTweet.org

.@mattgaetz showed courage & independence in voting for the War Powers Resolution. We have strong differences on issues, including the legality of the Soleimani killing, but no one should question his sincerity about preventing endless wars & military interventionism. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Yesterday, the House used the power of the purse to prevent Trump from starting another Middle East war. Averting reckless war is not a partisan cause — it's a humanitarian one. The Senate must follow suit by passing the War Powers Resolution. https://t.co/czVmVrnenT — PolitiTweet.org

Voting rights restored in 2019: ➡️ New Jersey: 80,000+ ➡️ Kentucky: 140,000+ ➡️ Nevada: 77,000 ➡️ Louisiana: ~40,000 This is only the beginning. In 2020, we will keep fighting to end felony disenfranchisement across America. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

As more than 200 members of Congress — mostly Republicans — sign a letter urging the Supreme Court to reconsider Roe v. Wade, here’s a reminder that abortion rights aren’t the partisan issue that many conservatives would have you believe. Most Americans are in support. https://t.co/loWvow14OO — PolitiTweet.org

Iowa is now the only state with a lifetime voting ban for all formerly incarcerated people without the governor's individual approval — leaving 52,000 Iowans unable to vote. Every 2020 candidate should demand an end to felony disenfranchisement in Iowa. https://t.co/CC6FgM125Y — PolitiTweet.org

Basic healthcare, education, and electricity should be available for all. That means passing Medicare for All, pushing for public ownership of utilities like PG&E, and investing in public education instead of for-profit charter schools. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Republicans want to claim that their policies have increased prosperity for every American but ordinary people know the truth when they see their paychecks. To create an economy for all, we must expand the EITC, strengthen unions, and make sure every worker earns a living wage. https://t.co/h8wOJ2cECe — PolitiTweet.org

Acres burned in wildfires over the past two years: 🔥 California (2018): 2M 🔥 Amazon (2019): 2.2M 🔥 Siberia (2019): 6.7M 🔥 Australia (2019): 12M How many acres have to burn before we finally put the health of our planet and future generations over special interests? — PolitiTweet.org

Here it is. After years of legal challenges on the state-level, Republicans are now revealing their long-term goal: Overturning Roe v. Wade even though most Americans support reproductive rights. We won't let them rollback women’s reproductive rights. https://t.co/Zu4jVy7TT4 — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Wildfires burned 12M acres in Australia in 2019 and half a billion animals died — the hottest and driest year in the nation's history. Entire species could have been lost. With climate change destroying ecosystems, we can’t wait any longer on action. https://t.co/3wSjG11ym9 — PolitiTweet.org

My heart is with all those in Puerto Rico after they suffered their worst earthquake in the last hundred years. We failed the island in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria and we can’t fail them now. Our fellow Americans deserve a just recovery. https://t.co/JWL1c8OpoT — PolitiTweet.org
