What are we supposed to tell voters in 2 years before the midterms? Sorry, we couldn’t pass the $15 minimum wage that we promised you because the Senate parliamentarian advised against it?
Two-thirds of voters want this done. Time to deliver.
The federal minimum wage has been $7.25 since 2009.
For tipped workers, it’s been $2.13 for 30 years.
The problem is NOT expanded unemployment assistance.
I am tearing up just thinking about what it would mean to Americans everywhere--and to the world--to have @BernieSanders as President, fighting for US. I am so ready for that.
I am so offended by candidates & pundits who try to paint @BernieSanders supporters as offensive. That erases the vast majority of us—many women & folks of color—who support Sanders and are inspired by the loving, generous movement we are building. Stop attacking US.
I will not stop talking about how I was ready to fight for my life.
I will not stop talking about hearing the insurrectionists on the other side of the door.
I will not stop talking about being forced into a superspreader event.
Hold EVERYONE involved fully accountable.
.@PramilaJayapal was in the House gallery Wednesday afternoon because Covid-19 restrictions meant that only so many members of Congress could be on the House floor at one time. She talks about what happened next in today's episode of Deconstructed /1 theintercept.com/2021/01/15/dec…
I'm all in for @BernieSanders for President! Bernie has the bold passion, authenticity & clarity that working people across this country desperately need.
We are building the progressive movement that will bring justice & opportunity & transform our country. Join us!
Rep. @PramilaJayapal has been a brilliant leader for progressive ideas. She's led the fight against Trump's racism, sexism and xenophobia. Together, we will defeat Trump and build a working class movement and transform this country so it works for all. washingtonpost.com/politics/rep-j…
I am a @BernieSanders supporter, but please. @ewarren was prepared, smart, unrelenting & on point in taking on sexism. “Mean and angry” is such a stereotype and unfair.
Police shot Jacob Blake seven times in the back, leaving him paralyzed.
Meanwhile, Kyle Rittenhouse illegally carried a rifle and was not arrested for shooting and murdering protesters until he was home in Illinois.
There is no logic to support this. This is white supremacy.
This is a really important point that @ewarren is making: the ultra-rich make their money off accumulated wealth not income. That’s why you have to tax wealth not just income.
Today I am announcing my endorsement of @JoeBiden for President of the United States.
VP Biden is a deeply dedicated public servant with the ability to unite the American people. I am moved by his compassion and ability to connect with people on the most human level.
