It’s time to stitch up the loopholes that allow the wealthy to exploit the bankruptcy system. And we need to crack down on predatory debt collection practices and hold corporate wrongdoers accountable in court. #FixBankruptcy — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

We also need to address racial and gender disparities in the bankruptcy system. That includes letting people discharge certain criminal justice fines but preventing the discharge of debts from civil rights violations, and exempting alimony and child support income. #FixBankruptcy — PolitiTweet.org

Our bill helps bankruptcy filers care for their families by helping renters with back rent avoid eviction, making student loan debt dischargeable, and letting people protect their homes and cars during the bankruptcy process. #FixBankruptcy — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Our Consumer Bankruptcy Reform Act simplifies and modernizes the consumer bankruptcy system to help people struggling with debt – starting by creating a single system for all consumers, streamlining the filing process, and reducing filing fees. #FixBankruptcy — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

As a law professor, I found that most bankruptcies are from an illness, job loss, or family death/breakup. COVID is pushing families over a financial cliff, and our system isn't providing relief. So @RepJerryNadler and I have a new bill to #FixBankruptcy. https://t.co/iBSGn1aNzu https://t.co/65tLDH645W — PolitiTweet.org

Eviction numbers are rising across the country, including in Massachusetts. The Trump administration is failing these struggling families – our state government can’t fail them too. We need an eviction moratorium in Massachusetts. https://t.co/IVUL6EyfNq — PolitiTweet.org

I had a great discussion with @NeeraTanden today about how the Office of Management and Budget can help working families and strengthen our economy. Neera has exceptional management experience and vast budget and policy expertise to help make this government work for the people. https://t.co/eQLiYcFfkd — PolitiTweet.org

I’m looking forward to working with Xavier Becerra, Dr. Fauci, Jeff Zients, Natalie Quillian, and three outstanding doctors with MA roots – Vivek Murthy, Rochelle Walensky, and Marcella Nunez-Smith – to fight this virus and build a stronger, healthier country for everyone. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

President-elect Biden has made it clear with terrific health nominees and appointees that scientists, public health professionals, and medical experts will be driving our pandemic response and recovery – not political cronies or big pharma execs. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

I wrote to VP Pence in July to find out what the Task Force was doing about long-term COVID health risks. It's clear now we need to get to the bottom of it. I’ll keep fighting for our federal government to take these chronic health impacts seriously. https://t.co/BeuJYK6pID — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Black and Latino Americans are, on average, much younger than white Americans – so they should be dying less from COVID, not more. I’m glad @CDCgov recalculated the COVID mortality risk to more accurately show the huge disparities for communities of color. https://t.co/HA97EojLiJ — PolitiTweet.org

Stephen Schwartz is yet another radical, right-wing, unqualified Trump judicial nominee. I oppose his confirmation. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

I hope you'll tune in soon for this important discussion. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

I’m glad the House passed the MORE Act to decriminalize marijuana & erase past convictions. It’s an overdue step in addressing unjust drug laws that have torn apart Black & Brown communities. I’m a proud cosponsor of the Senate bill. @SenateMajLdr McConnell should give it a vote. — PolitiTweet.org

What’s happening in Worcester is happening all across our country. We must do more for medically underserved communities hit hardest by COVID-19. @RepBarbaraLee and I have a bill to fund testing, contact tracing, and outreach for those who need it most.  https://t.co/ejMSFhNuuK — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Extending the pause on student loan payments by one month was the very least @BetsyDeVosED could do to keep millions of families from falling off a financial cliff on January 1st. But it’s not nearly enough. Let’s #CancelStudentDebt. — PolitiTweet.org

Young people never fully recovered from the 2008 financial crisis. They now face the second major economic crisis of their young lives. And many borrowers, especially Black and Brown borrowers, are still drowning. We can do better this time – we must do better. #CancelStudentDebt — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Canceling student debt will help families spend money in their local communities and our economy. It will help them buy homes or start small businesses that create jobs. And it will take us a step closer to fixing a deeply broken higher ed system. #CancelStudentDebt — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Executive action by the Biden-Harris administration to #CancelStudentDebt can boost Black and Latinx wealth, and help close the Black-white AND Latinx-white wealth gap by over 25%. That will help give Black and Brown families a far better shot at building some financial security. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Black and Brown students go to college because they believe it’s the surest path to build a future. They worked hard, did everything right, and often had no choice but to borrow loans. But student debt is a giant roadblock between them and building wealth. #CancelStudentDebt — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

1/3 of Latinx borrowers default on their student loans, and Black borrowers have about a 50-50 chance of defaulting on their loans. In fact, a decade after they start school, the typical Black borrower owes more on their loan than they originally borrowed. #CancelStudentDebt — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

For many systemic reasons, Black and Latinx households have a lot less wealth that white households. These students are more likely to borrow money to go to college, borrow more money while in college, and have a harder time paying when they leave college. #CancelStudentDebt — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

The point is, I’ve looked at the data on this. And it’s wrong to think everyone with student debt is a college graduate. Millions of people struggle beneath a growing debt load without a degree to boost their earnings. #CancelStudentDebt — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren

Up to 40% of people with student loan debt – and the majority of Black students – don’t have a degree years after starting college. Maybe they couldn’t afford to finish, needed to work, didn’t have child care, life happened – whatever. #CancelStudentDebt — PolitiTweet.org
