I'm sorry, but they have to live with the consequences of their decisions. They knew the job when they took it.

Senator Wyden is a champion for our right to a safe, secure, comfortable retirement. Thank you Senator Wyden for supporting the passage of The SECURE Act, an important step forward, and for continuing to fight for working people's right to retire. #PassSECUREAct2point0

"The US poverty rate has surged over the past 5 months, with 7.8M Americans falling into poverty, the latest indication of how deeply many are struggling after govt aid dwindled."
States are doing as much as we can, but we need action from Congress

I’ve got more to say on why eviction moratoriums and rent relief matters. I’ve recently heard “but even if tenants are evicted, it takes months and can be fixed then.” Pardon— AYFKM?? This is how generational TRAUMA and cycles of poverty take root.

In tonight’s presidential debate the President said the “Portland Sheriff” supports him. As the Multnomah County Sheriff I have never supported Donald Trump and will never support him.

Earlier today, I was contacted by a $250 donor and told to take down my two month old tweet defending #TaraReade or send his money back. I sent his money back. I will not be stopped from defending a woman who has been sexually abused, I don't care who the abuser is.

Now that we all agree corona virus treatment and testing should be free, let’s list the diseases that people should definitely have to pay for out of pocket— regardless of whether they can afford it.
You go first, because I’m at a loss.

Don't be fooled, without a penalty-free, indefinite suspension on rent, mortgage, student loans, credit card debt, etc...the stimulus package proposed today is nothing more than another bailout for big banks and billionaires. #SuspendAllDebt
Thank you & for speaking your truth on and for always demonstrating what true strength looks like. You inspire so many of us to be better!
I am so offended by candidates & pundits who try to paint 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.

"Medicare for All Who Want It" is 100% focus-grouped garbage. Eliminating private plans is the only way to give workers freedom. #M4A #PanderingPete
Quote Tweet
My plan gets us universal care without abolishing private plans, so if you like what you have, you won’t be forced off it. America's 14 million union workers have earned the right to choose what’s right for them—whether that's a public plan or the plan they've negotiated for.

We can't risk going into the most important election of our lives with a divisive approach that would eliminate private health care plans and health care choices for Americans.

There are 14 million union workers in America who have fought hard for strong, employer-provided health benefits. Medicare for All Who Want It protects their plans and union members' freedom to choose the coverage that's best for them.

Union political contributions come exclusively from individual members, who voluntarily pay into the fund.
Union-funded campaigns fight for the working class.
Corporate-funded campaigns fight to turn the working class into cheap labor units.
