Small businesses & start-ups literally cannot succeed without using apps like Apple or Google—but these platforms’ exorbitant fees make it so they get a massive cut of the earnings. We need more bills like this one to break Big Tech’s hold on our economy. https://t.co/prl6BwoO1h — PolitiTweet.org

We’re talking about the wealthiest 0.05% in this country pitching in 2-3 cents on the dollar for every dollar over 50 million. That’s not confiscatory — it’s a fair share. — PolitiTweet.org

HR1 is the most sweeping anti-corruption bill since the Watergate era. Our political system DESPERATELY needs this reform. https://t.co/4bFuMBx3xj — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s cruel, xenophobic, and racist policies decimated our broken immigration system and violated the rights of thousands. My Access to Counsel Act will ensure that US citizens, green card holders, and others with legal status can access legal help if they're detained by CBP. https://t.co/ViiGNEp37w — PolitiTweet.org

Nearly a million additional people are filing new unemployment claims every single week. These numbers are staggering, and they demand that we deliver survival checks and enhanced unemployment benefits now. https://t.co/SLcy8SUuES — PolitiTweet.org

76% of voters — including 60% of Republicans — support the American Rescue Plan. Here’s your daily reminder that these Senators don’t care about getting relief out to the people they represent. https://t.co/dYKgN7MKzE — PolitiTweet.org

I’m honored to lead the House Antitrust Subcommittee at this pivotal moment, where we will write the next chapter of antitrust law and finally hold Big Tech accountable. https://t.co/XiHBaC46qO — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal
Progressives fought hard to get these things into the relief package — and keep them there — because we need to put money directly in people's pockets. The Senate and White House should keep survival check thresholds the same as what the House passed. https://t.co/MSEBrArNnn — PolitiTweet.org

We can’t go back to voters after two years and say: sorry, we tried, but because of arcane Senate rules, we couldn’t deliver. The solution is to reform the filibuster. — PolitiTweet.org

I rise for all of our Black siblings who have been killed by police, and to answer the call of the millions—led by Black voices—who have marched to demand transformative change. I urge the House to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act because that change must begin NOW. https://t.co/27Qf3sZxZr — PolitiTweet.org

$7.25/hour is NOT a living wage. A $15 wage would lift 1 million workers out of poverty and give 27 million workers a raise. It is not complicated — but it is urgent. — PolitiTweet.org

The racial wealth gap and the extreme inequality we see across America is baked into our tax system. To close the wealth gap and level the playing field, we need ultra-millionaires and billionaires to finally pay their fair share. https://t.co/8naBODgW5g — PolitiTweet.org

In less than 40 seconds, here's how a wealth tax on the richest 0.05% would raise $3 TRILLION for COVID relief, housing, infrastructure, education, and so much more. 👇🏾 https://t.co/3ca041guyB — PolitiTweet.org

The arcane rules of the Senate are keeping people in poverty, and will only continue to block popular, urgent, and necessary policies. It’s time for reform. https://t.co/SpJDOeN1Kc — PolitiTweet.org

It's not a wealth tax OR a $15 minimum wage. It's both! Billionaires must finally pay their fair share AND they need to pay the workers who build their fortunes a living wage. https://t.co/QXucxM9JEq — PolitiTweet.org

If we are serious about addressing racial inequity and income inequality, we are going to have to do things that have not been done in a long time. Include $15 minimum wage in the reconciliation bill and give 27 million workers hope that they matter. — PolitiTweet.org
