Giant drug companies only care about one thing: raking in profits on the backs of patients. Mergers that mean more money for drug company CEOs while patients pay the price are not a solution to skyrocketing drug costs.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/03/business/dealbook/bristol-myers-squibb-celgene-merger.html …

My latest: "Enabling age discrimination is both a moral embarrassment and an ongoing personal finance catastrophe. Perhaps the new Congress, where Democrats now control the House, can finally move to restore legal protections for older workers."https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/01/03/age-discrimination-is-more-common-than-you-think-why-arent-we-doing-anything-about-it/?utm_term=.b4b922db0ca5 …

The most common age to file for Social Security benefits is 62, even though that means lower benefits for life.

Far from exploiting fears, Social Security reduces them by assuring people that they will not be destitute in the event of old age, disability, or the death of a breadwinner. To provide further peace of mind, we should expand benefits - NOT gut them like Hannity wants to do.https://twitter.com/mmfa/status/1080950271717588992 …

The very wealthiest Americans have already stopped paying Social Security taxes for the year thanks to the earnings cap. Instead of cutting vital Social Security benefits, we must change the cap and ensure the highest earners pay their share.http://bit.ly/2VmV7D2

Folks are rightly disappointed that
@NancyPelosi pushed#PayGo and didn't push a#GreenNewDeal. We need her to do better. But it's also worth highlighting and celebrating when our movement is winning, with her support.#MedicareForAll!https://twitter.com/daveweigel/status/1080862969796460544 …Thanks.

When Republicans are in charge, they vote to rip health care away from millions. When Democrats are in charge, they work to improve Medicare & expand it to cover every American.

This is what pharma does. Companies buy other companies to get their patented drugs, corner the market on that drug, eliminate competition and raise the price sky high.https://twitter.com/aynrandpaulryan/status/1080836705580503040 …

At a time when climate change threatens our planet, when our infrastructure is crumbling, when 30 million people have no health insurance, I'm concerned that the concept of PAYGO will make it harder for Congress to address the many crises facing our working families.
