How much harder would it be for you to find work, start a business, learn new skills or finish homework if you lacked reliable access to the internet? This is the reality for over 14 million rural Americans. Expanding broadband is about expanding opportunity across America. — PolitiTweet.org

Student debt relief won’t only help millennials. There are three million seniors with student debt and thousands are having their social security checks garnished because they can’t afford payments. https://t.co/kV8yNWynHO — PolitiTweet.org

Raising the federal minimum wage to $15/hour would lift 1.3 million people out of poverty. My expansion of the Earned Income Tax Credit would lift another 8 million out of poverty. With so many Americans struggling to make ends meet, Congress must act. — PolitiTweet.org

How will we remain globally competitive in the 21st century if we continue to invest in endless war and mass incarceration, instead of education, cleantech, renewables, infrastructure, healthcare and the ordinary Americans who make this country great? — PolitiTweet.org

@BernieOrVest We value digital activists. I’d love to hear from you and others how the campaign can do better. — PolitiTweet.org

Quick question: Does anyone still think that we can’t afford Medicare for All when Americans had to borrow $88 billion last year to cover their health costs? — PolitiTweet.org

Only 6 Republicans voted against the war in Iraq. Yesterday, 27 Republicans voted with Democrats to pass my amendment to block a war with Iran without Congressional approval. Our growing bipartisan coalition is fighting for restraint, diplomacy and no more endless wars. https://t.co/12auj7oTl7 — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

While Trump and the war hawks in his administration push us toward war with Iran, the House passed my amendment to block all funding without Congressional approval. We will no longer allow the executive branch to dictate if we send our troops to war. https://t.co/7aQpLEJDNF — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

My amendment that passed in the House yesterday to formally end the Korean War is an example of the diplomacy that must guide our foreign policy decisions. This peace agreement would be the first step toward denuclearization. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

@BerniesBack2020 @K810Mt @Jaffe4Congress I did. And it has enabled me to pass the historic Yemen WPR which led to Trump stopping refueling. It’s what allowed me to pass the Iran mendment with 251 votes to stop a war. It’s not enough to talk about progressive values. We have to be able to deliver on them. — PolitiTweet.org

So far this year, my bipartisan War Powers Resolution to end U.S. involvement in Yemen passed in both chambers of Congress and now my NDAA amendment passed in the House. When will Trump listen to the voices from both parties who demand an end to the war in Yemen? — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

The House has sent a clear message by passing my NDAA amendment: No more support for Saudi war crimes. Preventing cooperation with Saudi Arabia on airstrikes is another step toward ending our involvement in the world’s worst humanitarian crisis in Yemen. https://t.co/HTPMltAmp0 — PolitiTweet.org

Not only does a higher minimum wage mean more money in the pockets of hardworking Americans, but research shows that raising the wage could lead to fewer suicides, falling poverty rates, higher productivity, and a boost in consumer spending. https://t.co/30bkZfIc6O — PolitiTweet.org

It’s no surprise that so many teachers have to take a second job to make ends meet when they earn 21% less on average than similarly educated and experienced professionals. Teacher work so hard educating our young people. We have to work hard to end the teacher pay penalty. https://t.co/lmlWZJURLr — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

College for All is about building a future where nobody has to go into debt to attend college, university or trade school. A future where young people no longer have to put off having a family, buying a home, or starting a business because they are weighed down by student debt. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

With Trump rolling back dozens of environmental regulations since entering office and more in the process of being overturned, we deserve to know how our next president will protect the environment and mitigate climate change. That’s why the DNC must host a #ClimateDebate. https://t.co/4c4IrQoUcu — PolitiTweet.org

State and local governments should not be balancing their budget on the backs of poor Americans who end up in massive debt or even jail because they can’t pay court fines. Our fight for justice reform must include ending the criminalization of poverty. https://t.co/Rqqv1k7RCD — PolitiTweet.org

2018 Net Income: ➡️ The GEO Group: $145 million ➡️ Corecivic: $159 million While some Americans are stuck in jail because they can’t afford bail or court fees, corporations are making millions from locking people up. We need to end private prisons in the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

At a hearing on children at the border, Matthew 34 came to mind, “I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me...” — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

While the cost of education, healthcare, housing, and consumer goods continue to rise, the minimum wage hasn’t budged in ten years and is losing value due to inflation. Congress must pass the #RaiseTheWage Act to boost the incomes of millions of low-wage workers. https://t.co/b3WUSlRIly — PolitiTweet.org
