An insulin vial only costs $5 but because the three major producers hold the exclusive patents, the price continues to skyrocket. I’m fighting for a future where every American with diabetes can get affordable insulin supplies from their pharmacy — not Craigslist. https://t.co/lCSRyOjQLX — PolitiTweet.org

Opposing foreign influence in our elections isn't a partisan issue. Upholding the values of our founders and the Constitution isn't a partisan issue. Protecting our national security isn’t a partisan issue. https://t.co/0gk59RvPGU — PolitiTweet.org

Trump flat out lied to workers in the Midwest by claiming that he would bring their jobs back. Since then, even more factories have closed. That's why @UAW workers on strike are demanding that GM reopen factories and keep jobs in the U.S. #UAWStrike https://t.co/aeGtlaXAhH — PolitiTweet.org

Stephon Clark was killed in his own grandmother’s backyard because police thought he had a gun. It was a cell phone. With the PEACE Act, the officers would have been held accountable and Stephon Clark’s family would no longer be denied justice. https://t.co/z1jaSrPkFH — PolitiTweet.org

Medicare for All will guarantee healthcare to the millions of Americans who are uninsured and underinsured. It will also make sure that those with supposedly “good” private insurance don't have to deal with surprise six-figure bills for surgery. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Trump's claim that deportations will lead to less crime is based on xenophobia — not facts. Instead of letting the president's falsehoods dictate our immigration policy, we need immigration reform that respects the rights of asylum seekers and includes a path to citizenship. https://t.co/2Dv3jKLq0j — PolitiTweet.org

Members of Congress were elected to represent their constituents, not investors, Big Pharma, commercial banks and the oil and gas companies that spend billions influencing our elections. I am introducing the NO PAC Act because our political system is not for sale. https://t.co/anAhOwBBZt — PolitiTweet.org

2018 tax revenue from the legal marijuana industry: 💰 WA: $319M 💰 CA: $300M 💰 CO: $267M 💰 OR: $94M 💰 NV: $70M 💰 AL: $11M 💰 MA: $5M Imagine how much money we could raise and re-invest in disadvantaged communities if we ended the prohibition of marijuana nationwide. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans were unable to pass food stamp cuts in Congress because the American people are not in support. If Trump really fought for the working class, he would focus on creating good-paying jobs, not making it harder for people to make ends meet. https://t.co/Yxc0D6bdXk — PolitiTweet.org

Brilliant piece by @Edsall. Dems must be for bringing new jobs, opportunity, & prosperity to places left behind. We must show that the future, with all it’s change, will give families & their kids a better life if we don’t want them to cling to the past. https://t.co/w4GZnWwzNI — PolitiTweet.org

Our foreign policy should be rooted in diplomacy and human rights, not support for any country that wants to spend billions buying weapons of war from us. — PolitiTweet.org

.@BernieSanders will ask the 70 million American families who make less than 75k a year, are you any better off since Trump has been President? Donald Trump’s greatest crime may be his betrayal of the working class in America. — PolitiTweet.org

It's disgraceful that there are people working full-time in America who need public benefits to survive. If a corporation can spend billions on stock buybacks for investors, and pay huge salaries to executives, then they can afford to pay living wages to ALL of their workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Twelve states now have some form of tuition-free public college. These programs help young people afford the rising cost of tuition and prevent them from starting their adult lives with student debt. I will keep fighting to add every state to this list with College for All. https://t.co/UwUq5MlGUw — PolitiTweet.org

Starting a war with Iran will only lead to billions of dollars wasted, destabilization in the Middle East, and more lives needlessly lost. The answer is not more endless, unconstitutional wars. We must be loud and clear in demanding restraint, diplomacy, and #NoWarWithIran. — PolitiTweet.org

Why have wages remained stagnant for decades despite rising productivity? Here's one reason: Check out the % of workers with collective bargaining rights by country. 🇦🇹 98% 🇧🇪 96% 🇮🇸 90% 🇳🇱 78% 🇪🇸 73% 🇦🇺 59% 🇩🇪 56% 🇨🇦 30% 🇬🇧 26% 🇨🇱 21% 🇯🇵 17% 🇳🇿 16% . . 🇺🇸 12% — PolitiTweet.org

Here are the six years of growth projections for the marijuana industry. Imagine how much higher these numbers would be if cannabis were legal nationwide. Ending the federal prohibition of marijuana will keep people out of jail and also create strong economic growth. https://t.co/shEUdqHp43 — PolitiTweet.org

Trump is once again sidestepping Congress to provide military support to Saudi Arabia and the UAE. It’s more important than ever for the Senate to pass my amendment to prevent war with Iran without Congressional approval. https://t.co/ZoUgtFds4e — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Here’s how America succeeds in the 21st Century: ❌ Send troops to Saudi Arabia and the UAE ❌ Start a war with Iran ✅ End unconstitutional wars ✅ Invest in communities left behind ✅ Create millions of good-paying jobs ✅ Lead the world in climate action — PolitiTweet.org

Every one of our Presidential candidates must speak with @USRepMikeDoyle. He has progressive ideals and also gets how to create high wage jobs in rural towns & our heartland. We have to deliver more opportunity and jobs to communities left out. @USRepMikeDoyle gets it. — PolitiTweet.org

There are almost no communities in the U.S. where you can work 40 hours per week at minimum wage and afford a one bedroom apartment. In some areas, you would need to work the equivalent of TWO full time minimum wage jobs. This is the affordable housing crisis in America. https://t.co/ouU2ODlNjN — PolitiTweet.org

How many lives must needlessly be lost before we finally realize that waging war in Afghanistan won't keep anyone safe? After 18 years, the only viable solution is full withdrawal and working with regional players to prevent attacks before they occur. https://t.co/LTYNnjL6Qd — PolitiTweet.org

Frank had to drain his retirement funds and still owes over $220,000 for emergency back surgery to prevent paralysis. His private insurance claimed that it wasn't medically necessary. Ask him if he likes the "choice" private insurance offered him. https://t.co/EqVu77Z1OL — PolitiTweet.org

.@GretaThunberg was by herself when she started the #ClimateStrike over a year ago. Last Friday, millions protested worldwide. Every member of Congress must read her urgent words and commit to the bold action needed to solve the climate crisis. https://t.co/cAjZIH4J70 — PolitiTweet.org
