While low-wage workers have trouble affording the rent, many of the multinational corporations they work for are able to spend billions on executive pay and stock buybacks to reward investors. They can afford to pay their workers $15 per hour. #FightFor15 https://t.co/ehjCHruYH4 — PolitiTweet.org

Our teachers have such an important job preparing our young people for the future but communities across America suffer from a shortage in talented teachers. Could it be because teachers make less than 60% on average of similarly educated professionals? https://t.co/Ud9aDtbYDb — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats should be for progressive capitalism — free enterprise that rewards the dignity of work, innovation, & entrepreneurship, not simply the privileged or connected few. ⁦@JosephEStiglitz⁩ ⁦@RBReich⁩ ⁦@erikbryn⁩ ⁦@paulkrugman⁩ https://t.co/NYWd8Co8VM — PolitiTweet.org

Don’t be fooled: NAFTA 2.0 isn’t just about trade. It is about giving Big Pharma the power to extend patent monopolies and block generic competition throughout North America. If we don't stop this, it will lead to even higher prescription drug prices. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a shame that many millennials now regret their college education due to cost, but this is the reality for a generation weighed down by student debt. We must make public colleges debt-free & substantially lower student debt in this country. https://t.co/evwQQMG7vM — PolitiTweet.org

No shareholder or corporate executive should be making money from putting other people in jail. Our voices must be stronger than the lobbying money from for-profit prison contractors, as we demand an end to private prisons in the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

A very important piece by @renato_mariotti about why we need the reports of McGahn’s FBI interviews before we call him and why we should call Mueller first. — PolitiTweet.org

Supporting our troops doesn’t mean giving trillions to defense contractors to engage in endless wars around the world. It means investing more in providing healthcare, job training, housing, and mental health for our veterans. https://t.co/Gv7Pu4lAxC — PolitiTweet.org

Will Medicare for All “destabilize” the system? Let’s examine: ➡️ Americans pay some of the highest prices on Earth for healthcare ➡️ Millions have to put off care due to cost ➡️ UnitedHealth Group made $226B in revenue in 2018 Does our current system seem stable to you? — PolitiTweet.org

The truth is: The American people are already paying for climate change in the form of disaster relief. We need to be proactive and invest in the Green New Deal instead of cleaning up after communities and lives have already been destroyed. https://t.co/eGnrKn7FXI — PolitiTweet.org

There is a reason Trump was okay letting McGahn speak to Mueller but is doing everything to block him from testifying in front of Congress. He understands the power of television. “Public sentiment is everything.” — PolitiTweet.org

California’s new law was supposed to make police misconduct records public, but some local governments shredded files before the law went into effect. People should know if the officers who are sworn to protect them have been in trouble for misconduct. https://t.co/4IHLwOLWfu — PolitiTweet.org

Offshore drilling can lead to dangerous oil spills that pollute our oceans and destroy our ecosystems. If Trump is serious about boosting America’s energy production, then let's invest in renewable energy all across this country. https://t.co/6dK2ExRC1S — PolitiTweet.org
