I say this as the father of four kids and the grandfather of seven: if we do not deal with the existential threat of climate change now, it will be too late. https://t.co/5GPOkFog9M — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we pause to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001 and honor the brave first responders who risked their lives that day to help their fellow Americans. It’s a day I will never forget. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I’m once again asking my colleagues in the Senate to look at what is happening around the world and find the courage to stand up to the fossil fuel industry. https://t.co/HHf9JTdOoa — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Today, 72 Members of Congress made it clear that it would be an outrage to attach Sen. Manchin's fossil fuel "side deal" to the Continuing Resolution or any other must pass bill. At a time when our planet is on fire, we must take on the greed of Big Oil & reject this dirty deal. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Yesterday, I was on the Senate floor to discuss climate catastrophes are happening all over the world and why we must not make it easier for the fossil fuel industry to destroy our planet. If you missed it, tune in. https://t.co/9uuglwFQjU — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

It's no accident that 71% of Americans have a favorable view of unions the highest since 1965, while just 36% hold a favorable view of corporations the lowest since Wall Street crashed the economy in 2008. The American people are sick and tired of corporate greed. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Congress must listen to the 650+ environmental and civil rights organizations who wrote that it would be "morally abhorrent" to attach Sen. Manchin’s fossil fuel "side deal" to the Continuing Resolution or any other must pass bill. https://t.co/kukwXsAje2 — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Combating climate change is more important than fossil fuel profits. I will not vote for any bill that makes it easier for Big Oil to destroy the planet and that includes approving the Mountain Valley Pipeline. The Continuing Resolution must not be held hostage by Big Oil. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I’m LIVE on the floor of the U.S. Senate to announce my strong opposition to the so-called “side deal” to build the Mountain Valley Pipeline. We don’t need to make it easier for the fossil fuel industry to destroy the planet. https://t.co/krKcm9W7SU — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

TODAY at 11am ET: I’ll be LIVE on the floor of the U.S. Senate to speak about how climate change is already ravaging our planet and why now is not the time to fast-track the construction of a natural gas pipeline in West Virginia. Tune in. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Congrats to Minor League baseball players for a huge and swift show of support for forming a union. The MLB and Commissioner Manfred should voluntarily recognize the union immediately and bargain in good faith. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

On this Labor Day, let us not forget that the total wealth of the top 1% reached a record $45.6 trillion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2021. That’s more money than the bottom 90% of our country. We need an economy that works for all, not just the few. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

What recent union victories show is that working class Americans are sick and tired of being exploited by large corporations. This Labor Day, let us stand together in the fight for justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

We must stand up to the ruling class. https://t.co/xtHhp43pJq — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

If we can afford to give out tax breaks for the rich and large corporations, we can afford to address the needs of the working class. Period. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Let us have the courage to stand together and fight back against corporate greed. Let us fight back against massive income and wealth inequality. Let us fight back against a corrupt political system. https://t.co/xtHhp43pJq — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The threats to our democracy could not be clearer, and we must act boldly to protect it. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

We will not allow Republicans to divide us up between those working class Americans who went to college and left deeply in debt against those who did not. All of us need to stand together for an economy that works for all, not just the 1%. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

Never Forget: 83% of the Trump tax breaks are going to the top 1%. 87% of Biden's student loan benefits are going to individuals making $75,000 or less and 0% are going to the top 1%. Yes. It's about time we stood up for working class families. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

House Republicans: "If you take out a loan, you pay it back." Meanwhile: 13 House Republicans took out over $15 million in PPP loans that were totally forgiven by the federal government. House Republicans: If you take out a loan, you pay it back. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

This is what a leading Republican thinks of young "slacker" Americans who took out loans to go to college. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

I hear Republicans complaining about $20,000 in student debt forgiveness. Funny, I didn't hear those complaints when Trump declared bankruptcy 6 times & had $287 million in loans forgiven by big banks. The GOP l-o-v-e-s socialism for the rich, rugged individualism for the rest. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

If Howard Schultz, the Starbucks CEO, who is worth $4 billion can afford a $145 million, 254-foot super yacht with a helicopter pad, you know what? He can afford to negotiate a fair first contract with Starbucks workers who voted to form a union in over 230 locations in America. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

My statement on President Biden’s student debt announcement. https://t.co/PE6xUI3MtS — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

The average amount of debt forgiveness to businesses receiving PPP loans: $95,700. If we could afford to cancel hundreds of billions in PPP loans to business owners in their time of need, please do not tell me we can't afford to cancel all student debt for 45 million Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

More corporate greed. While the cost of healthcare is soaring & over 70 million are uninsured or under-insured, 7 health insurance companies made $43.8 billion in profits in the first half of 2022 while spending over $12 billion on stock buybacks. Yes. We need Medicare for All. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

We’ve been dealing with Covid-19 for years now. That’s difficult. No way around it. Last week, I spoke with White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator @AshishKJha46 about where we go from here. If you missed it, tune in NOW! https://t.co/bHnQV6CsOV — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

This is what a rigged economy looks like. On the same day a bill was signed into law to give a $76 billion blank check to micro-chip companies, Intel announced it will be cutting back on plans to increase jobs by $4 billion while increasing dividends for its wealthy shareholders. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

TONIGHT: I had a very good discussion last week with White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator @AshishKJha46 about where we are with the pandemic and where we go from here. If you missed it, we are rebroadcasting it tonight at 7pm ET! — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

For 87 years, through good times and bad, Social Security has paid every benefit owed to every eligible American on time & without delay. That's a h-u-g-e record of accomplishment. On this, the 87th anniversary of Social Security, our job is to expand Social Security, not cut it. — PolitiTweet.org
