Charisa Wotherspoon has a college degree in early childhood development. She was working for $7.50 at YMCA. This is unconscionable. @BernieSanders will make sure we pay educators who help our young children develop a living wage. https://t.co/KiLfWOzQnc — PolitiTweet.org

Students in America need to work for 682 hours at a $15 wage to afford the annual in-state tuition at a four-year public university. Many students earn even less than $15, can’t work full-time, and also have to pay for textbooks and living costs. America needs College for All. — PolitiTweet.org

How can some Democrats continue to defend a system where millions of Americans either lack access to healthcare or have to go into debt to pay for the cost? Rather than “infringing on freedom,'' Medicare for All will give people the freedom to see the doctor of their choice. https://t.co/JVdcEGnBi8 — PolitiTweet.org

Siemens shut down @RobertM65065501 plant in Burlington, IA in December. He lost his job after 31 years. Trump gave Siemens $500 million in contracts. Bob feels betrayed.

Every woman in this country has the right to control her own body, regardless of the state she lives in or the amount of money in her bank account. That’s why Medicare for All includes reproductive health and will finally end the Hyde Amendment. — PolitiTweet.org

Some Democrats say free public college for all is regressive because upper middle class kids should pay. My question for them: Do you believe free public high school is regressive? If we made high school free and universal by 1945, don’t we need more free schooling by 2020? — PolitiTweet.org

While 1-in-4 U.S. households lack access to basic banking services, banks profit from overdraft fees and predatory lending, and people are sent to jail for not being able to afford fines and fees, not one Wall Street executive has been held accountable for the financial crisis. https://t.co/udMawDxpIK — PolitiTweet.org

The CIA has now officially concluded that the Saudi crown prince ordered Khashoggi’s assassination. How much more evidence of human rights abuses does Trump need before we stop providing military assistance to Saudi Arabia? https://t.co/20QrBTRDYk — PolitiTweet.org

Atatiana was playing video games with her nephew and a neighbor called the police because her door was open. Officers arrived and shot Atatiana to death within seconds. This senseless murder is why @LacyClayMO1 and I are introducing the PEACE Act. https://t.co/9XdkPNUPMO — PolitiTweet.org

Since Turkey’s attack on the Kurds in Northern Syria began, over 100,000 people have been displaced and five ISIS militants have already escaped prison. Trump’s blunder will only further destabilize the region when what we truly need is diplomacy. https://t.co/90lR4Hbi03 — PolitiTweet.org

There have been 19 black transgender women murdered this year and saying their names is only step one. We also must follow through with bold action to end the violence, demand justice, and stamp out racism and LGBTQ+ discrimination in America. #blacktranslivesmatter https://t.co/Ad6xE259kI — PolitiTweet.org

First, Trump calls for a full withdrawal from Syria with no plan, putting our Kurdish allies in danger and threatening a humanitarian crisis. Now he’s sending military assistance to a regime that caused the world’s worst humanitarian crisis in Yemen. https://t.co/yAy0eX7vPJ — PolitiTweet.org

Every American should be asking this question: Why is the President's personal lawyer influencing and directing foreign policy decisions for the United States? This impeachment inquiry is about Trump threatening national security and abusing his powers as President. — PolitiTweet.org

These stories illustrate what decades of stagnant wages and rising education, healthcare, and housing costs have done to the middle class. Workers need the bargaining power to demand higher wages, a tax plan to expand the EITC, and at least a $15 wage. https://t.co/om7B7fd2GG — PolitiTweet.org

Fact: Premiums, deductibles, copays, drug prices are all going up faster than wages. Anyone who cares about costs should recognize the failure of the current system and be for Medicare for All as a simpler and economically more efficient alternative. — PolitiTweet.org

When @VanJones68 said “people don’t like to be forced” re M4A, we should respond: Every American will get better benefits for lower costs like Medicare, which is mandated for seniors, provides. If you want more, you are free to get supplemental insurance. But 95% won’t choose to! — PolitiTweet.org
