We must become less dependent on foreign nations for microchips, but we can and must accomplish that goal without simply throwing money at these companies while the taxpayer gets nothing in return. https://t.co/kDPmQzk9rK — PolitiTweet.org

LIVE: No, the microchip industry does not need a blank check of over $50 billion at a time when the companies are making billions of dollars in profits and paying their executives exorbitant compensation packages. https://t.co/kDPmQzk9rK — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll be LIVE on the floor of the Senate at 1:30pm ET to discuss why, at a time of massive wealth and income inequality, now is not the time for Congress to hand a $53 billion blank check to the microchip industry. — PolitiTweet.org

On #PrimeDay, let's not forget. Amazon blamed "inflation" on a 17% price hike in a Prime membership after its profits soared 450% since the pandemic to a record $38 billion while avoiding $5 billion in taxes, spending $4 million on union busting & denying workers paid sick leave. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, in America, just three Wall Street firms – BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street - manage $22 trillion in assets. These three firms are major shareholders in more than 96 percent of S&P 500 companies. Obscene. — PolitiTweet.org

Average hourly wages for American workers have remained nearly flat since 1960, while home prices have almost TRIPLED over the same time period. It's no wonder that nearly half of all Americans today spend at least 30% of their income on housing. Obscene. — PolitiTweet.org

I am proud of the major increase in Federally Qualified Community Health Centers in Vermont and the number of Vermonters who use them. While the struggle continues to guarantee health care to all, we have made significant progress in improving access to primary health care. https://t.co/yVKQ7O8NdS — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden is right: The big oil companies must stop profiteering and bring down gas prices. But we need more than a tweet. It's time for the President to demand that Congress pass a windfall profits tax on Big Oil and use the revenue to provide rebates to consumers NOW! — PolitiTweet.org

The American people are sick of airlines ripping them off, canceling flights at the last minute and delaying flights for hours on end. It's time for @SecretaryPete to fine airlines $55,000 per passenger for every flight cancellation they know can’t be fully staffed. https://t.co/NE7H03U9QU — PolitiTweet.org

Overturning Roe v. Wade and denying women the right to control their own bodies is an outrage and in defiance of what the American people want. Democrats must now end the filibuster in the Senate, codify Roe v. Wade, and once again make abortion legal and safe. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2020, 45,000 Americans died from gun-related injuries. We’ve recently seen horrific mass shootings in Buffalo and Texas. The Supreme Court’s response: loosen gun safety laws. Six justices are way out of touch with reality. — PolitiTweet.org

In the French elections, given the choice between progressives who want to increase taxes on the rich, or right-wing extremists who are viciously anti-immigrant, the pro-business "centrist" party of Macron just couldn't make a choice. There's a lesson to be learned here. — PolitiTweet.org

$2.5 billion in federal funding went to Moderna. The company’s CEO then received a $926 million golden parachute. Does that make any sense to you? https://t.co/Dp2ALVRNc6 — PolitiTweet.org
