Don’t let the warhawks claim that the American people support our interventionist foreign policy. The truth is: ➡️ 62% say that the war in Iraq was not worth fighting ➡️ 59% say that the prolonged war in Afghanistan should end ➡️ 60% oppose a pre-emptive attack on Iran — PolitiTweet.org

If the Trump administration gets their way on overturning the ACA, 45,600 more people on average in every congressional district would lose their health coverage. We must defend the ACA & fight for Medicare for All where everyone has healthcare from the day they are born. — PolitiTweet.org

The truth is that many Black families lost most of their wealth in the financial crisis and have yet to fully recover. We must invest in affordable housing, make it harder for banks to engage in housing discrimination and invest in communities of color. https://t.co/mBth2vQd3V — PolitiTweet.org

How is it possible that we have money for 💰 $1.5T in tax breaks for corporations and investors 💰 $738B for military spending But then can't afford to invest in ⛔ Healthcare ⛔ Education ⛔ Childcare ⛔ Infrastructure ⛔ Fighting climate change — PolitiTweet.org

Americans living in poverty: over 40 million Children living in poverty: 1 in 5 Questions at last night's #DemDebate on poverty: ZERO This silence demonstrates why @RevDrBarber's #PoorPeoplesCampaign is so important. — PolitiTweet.org

We've seen massive data breaches over the past few years but not one question on protecting privacy and consumer data at last night's #DemDebate. The American people deserve to know where their data is stored and how it's being used. We need the Internet Bill of Rights. — PolitiTweet.org

With Medicare for All, workers will no longer have to pay huge insurance premiums and employers could focus on raising wages instead of paying high healthcare costs. https://t.co/un5bBTTE7B — PolitiTweet.org

When students attend public colleges and universities, here’s what they pay on average: 🇩🇰 Denmark: $0 🇪🇪 Estonia: $0 🇫🇮 Finland: $0 🇩🇪 Germany: $0 🇮🇸 Iceland: $0 🇳🇴 Norway: $0 🇸🇪 Sweden: $0 🇹🇷 Turkey: $0 🇺🇸 United States: $8,778 This is why we fight for College for All. — PolitiTweet.org

Drug companies shipped out enough opioids in 2012 for every man, woman and child in the United States to have nearly a 20-day supply. Big Pharma must be held accountable for fueling the opioid crisis. https://t.co/6fBnQObuiX — PolitiTweet.org

As we fight to raise the minimum wage to $15/hour, we also need to work to expand the Earned Income Tax Credit. My bill would: ✅ Raise the incomes of 47 million households ✅ Reduce poverty for 16.9 million people ✅ Lift 8 million Americans out of poverty — PolitiTweet.org

.@GovernorBullock, @ewarren was right. The answer to N. Korea is not a first strike nuclear policy. It is Bill Clinton’s approach to stop N. Korea’s ICBMs that could hit Detroit & Carter’s call to end the war leading to denuclearization. Smart diplomacy, not bluster. @jaketapper — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s what pundits who say @BernieSanders was “angry” last night don’t understand. There are many voters like my father who told me this morning, “someone needs to be angry about the corruption and greed in this country.” — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Do we really need to spend even more on our military? When will we finally invest in helping the people who can’t afford healthcare, the students going into debt for an education, the planet which is being threatened by climate change & the communities that have been left behind? https://t.co/uOsp2HwRfv — PolitiTweet.org

On @Maddow, I answered that .@BernieSanders clearly won last night's #DemDebate and had the best line: "I wrote the damn bill."

.@BernieSanders opposed the Iraq War when it was unpopular. He supported my War Powers Resolution to end involvement in Yemen when it was unpopular and together we passed it in both houses. Bernie has the vision & leadership to prevent endless, unconstitutional wars. #DemDebate — PolitiTweet.org

Best line of the night. @BernieSanders “I know, I wrote the damn bill.” On why he knows that Medicare for All will provide better care for all Americans than the current broken system. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

.@BernieSanders has been a supporter of Medicare for All for decades, way before it was a popular policy position. His conviction and lifetime of integrity are why we trust him to fight for patients over Big Pharma profits. #DemDebate — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The truth about Medicare for All: 📈 It will save $17T over ten years 💸 Employers will save money that can be used to raise wages 💼 People will have more flexibility to become entrepreneurs 👩‍⚕️ Nobody will ever have to change doctors due to lost coverage #DemDebate https://t.co/DV5nyfN8JI — PolitiTweet.org

Poor dental health has been linked to heart disease and Alzheimer’s, but more Americans have to skip dental care due to cost than any other care — regardless of insurance. Medicare for All would ensure that every American can get dental care they need to stay healthy. https://t.co/M1RT8deVH6 — PolitiTweet.org

The federal government hasn’t executed anyone in two decades but now the DOJ has announced five executions. Capital punishment has been discriminatory and should be held unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. https://t.co/j3CsLC1kve — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The President is making casual jokes about wiping 10 million people off the Earth to “win” the war in Afghanistan. This is no laughing matter. The Senate must pass my amendments to prevent Trump from starting a war without Congressional approval. https://t.co/uq54DaR92x — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Here's an idea: Instead of cutting food stamps for 3 million people, how about raising the minimum wage to $15/hour so that workers employed by billion dollar corporations don’t earn so little that they need assistance to put food on the table. https://t.co/9hvwjWwYQ6 — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The same administration that championed a $1.5 trillion tax break to help corporations and investors is now trying to make it harder for 3 million Americans to put food on the table to save $2.5 billion per year. It’s not about the money. This is an attack on the poor. https://t.co/F2WuVkqjmE — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Here’s the difference: Trump insulted the people of Baltimore and its elected leaders. I have never before heard an American President attacking our own citizens. @BernieSanders demanded real solutions like investing in education, healthcare, infrastructure & broadband. https://t.co/oez0EVT9Kh — PolitiTweet.org
