  1. We must finally put an end to the disastrous, so-called "War on Drugs." This includes legalizing marijuana, releasing those imprisoned because of it, expunging their records, and investing in the communities devastated by this decades-long assault.

  2. Bad news for those who say our seniors' benefits are too "extravagant": We're expanding them. My Social Security Expansion Act provides low-income seniors $1,300 more a year by making millionaires and billionaires pay their share of Social Security taxes.

  3. Just how rich are Wall Street speculators? A tax of just a few pennies on their financial trading can fund tuition-free public college for all and erase all $1,700,239,090,564 in student debt. This is how we make higher education a right in America.

  4. ⬆️In 1965, public college tuition was $2,000 a year. Now it’s $10,000. ⬇️In 1968 the minimum wage was $10. Now it’s $7.25. If we're not supposed to learn from other wealthy countries, we can sure as hell look at policies America had 50 years ago, when we were half as rich.

  5. The financial sector grew fivefold as a share of the economy since the 1970s. The result? More greed, corruption, criminality, bloated CEO pay, financial crashes and taxpayer bailouts. Maybe Wall Street should face some downsizing so that the working class can finally thrive.

  6. For the price of this single $13 billion warship—a total boondoggle—we could provide America's children universal school lunches for a full year. This is why we must confront the military-industrial complex and end the profiteering off of weapons of war.

    Poništi
  7. It’s time for us to join the rest of the world's rich countries and guarantee: 👷🏽‍♀️ Living wages 💪🏾 Strong unions 🏥 Universal health care 🏖 Paid vacation and family leave 👩🏽‍🎓 Tuition-free college 🧓🏻 Retirement security Americans deserve to live with dignity too.

  8. A majority of our seniors get most of their income from Social Security—less than $1,500 a month, on average. Washington lobbyists can spend that in one night on a fancy dinner! Tell me why we can give billionaires tax breaks but can't afford to expand Social Security.

    As a son of Eritrean refugees, let me be clear: The President’s travel ban on African countries contradicts our American values & the promise and refuge our country has offered to immigrants and refugees for centuries. It is unconscionable. It is wrong. And we must oppose it.

    Poništi
  10. In my humble opinion, a great nation is not judged by the number of billionaires or nuclear weapons it has. It is judged by how it treats the weakest and most vulnerable people amongst us.

    Poništi
  11. Why are Wall Street investors getting scared of fossil fuel stocks? Because the climate justice movement is making it clear that political pressure for divestment will not stop. It will only grow stronger. To protect our planet, we are taking on Big Oil—and we're winning.

    Poništi
  12. By a vote of 51 to 49, the Senate refused to subpoena witnesses in this impeachment trial. I've never heard of a trial where you don't have witnesses. This is a sad day in American history.

    Poništi
  13. A fair impeachment trial means hearing testimony from witnesses. This is not a radical idea. So what are Republicans afraid of?

    Poništi
  14. The richest 400 billionaires pay lower taxes than fast-food workers. If we are to stop the war being waged by the billionaire class against working Americans, we need a tax on extreme wealth.

    Poništi
  15. CEOs at Merck and Pfizer each make almost $50 million a year. A senior's median income is $25,000 a year. Pharma CEOs get rich charging the world’s highest prices. Seniors cut their pills in half and skip groceries trying to afford them. That is disgusting and has got to end.

    Six weeks ago, ' and 's offices asked OSHA to send us information on the alarmingly high # of injuries at Amazon facilities. This data should have taken just a day to collect, but we have yet to hear back from the agency.

    Poništi
  17. I applaud the House of Representatives for passing the Stop War Against Iran Act that I introduced with , and 's repeal of the 2002 Authorization for Use of Military Force. The Senate must now take up these vital bills to stop endless war.

    Poništi
  18. Instead of fixing our broken health care system, Trump continues to waste time and endanger lives trying to kick people off Medicaid. He should listen to the 90 percent of Americans who think Medicaid is important and expand the program, not cut it.
