I’m LIVE on the floor of the U.S. Senate to ask a simple question: Are any Republicans prepared to stand with rail workers who have ZERO paid sick days or are they instead going to back the outrageous greed of the rail industry? https://t.co/73MaivAJSj — PolitiTweet.org

Let me congratulate the 221 Members in the House for taking on the greed of the rail industry and voting to guarantee 7 paid sick days to every rail union worker in America. It is absolutely unacceptable that rail workers have ZERO paid sick days. The Senate must do the same. — PolitiTweet.org

Are any Republicans prepared to stand with rail workers who have ZERO paid sick days or are they going to back the greed of the top rail CEOs in America who got paid a combined $104 million in one year while they fire workers who get sick? Stay tuned... — PolitiTweet.org

At a time of record profits in the rail industry, it’s unacceptable that rail workers have ZERO guaranteed paid sick days. I'm LIVE on the floor of the Senate NOW to demand a vote on guaranteeing 7 paid sick days for all rail workers. https://t.co/Ppua2lmcpJ — PolitiTweet.org

Guaranteeing 7 paid sick days to rail workers would cost the rail industry a grand total of $321 million a year – less than 2% of its profits. Please don't tell me the rail industry can't afford it. Rail companies spent $25.5 billion on stock buybacks and dividends this year. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s not just the unions who understand that working conditions on the railroads, with no guaranteed sick leave, is inhumane. It is some of the railroads major customers. Read what @EByerNACD, president and CEO of the National Association of Chemical Distributors, recently wrote. — PolitiTweet.org

If the rail industry can afford to spend $25.5 billion this year to buy back its own stock and hand out huge dividends to its wealthy shareholders, please do not tell me it cannot afford to guarantee paid sick days to its workers and provide them with a decent quality of life. — PolitiTweet.org

Warren Buffett, the owner of BNSF Railway's parent company, became $1.38 billion richer yesterday. In one day, Mr. Buffett made twice as much money as it would cost to guarantee 15 paid sick days a year to every rail worker in America. The greed of the rail industry must end. — PolitiTweet.org

Another day, another terrible mass shooting in America. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. It is long overdue for Congress to pass the common sense gun safety reform that Americans are demanding. If we can’t get 60 votes in the Senate, then we must end the filibuster to protect our people. — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s be clear. The terrible shooting in Colorado Springs this weekend is a direct result of the hateful and violent rhetoric that has been allowed to grow in this country. We must stand united with the LGBTQ+ community and speak out against bigotry everywhere we find it. — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe just maybe, the Supreme Court should realize they have no business telling anyone who they can and can't love and marry. I was proud to cast my vote today to finally make marriage equality – including same-sex and interracial marriages – the long overdue law of the land. — PolitiTweet.org

Why have insulin prices soared? Just 3 companies (Eli Lilly, Novo & Sanofi) control 90% of the insulin market while jacking up prices in tandem. It's time to break up their patents and end this collusion. Americans should not be forced to pay 10x more for insulin than Canadians. — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden is right. At a time when Exxon, Shell and Chevron increased their profits by 168% to $81 billion in the last 2 quarter by charging outrageously high prices at the pump, we need a windfall profits tax. The revenue should go directly back to the American people. — PolitiTweet.org
