    For decades, the billionaire class and corporations have harnessed their power to enact a radical redistribution of wealth from the bottom 99% to the top 1%. I think now is the time for radical action on behalf of the working class of this country.

    We need members of the Supreme Court who have a strong track record of standing up for justice – economic justice, racial justice, social justice, political justice, and environmental justice. There is no doubt Judge Jackson is that person. I was proud to vote to confirm her.

    Let me congratulate the on voting to form a union. All across the country, graduate student teachers are being ruthlessly exploited by very wealthy universities. I hope today's victory inspires a nationwide movement of workers on campuses fighting for better pay.

    WE DID IT: with a landslide margin of 1785–912, we are officially the MITGSU-UE!!! What started 4 years ago with a dozen students in an MIT classroom discussing the needs of graduate workers has culminated in this historic victory for student-workers at MIT. Now, we celebrate!

    Amazon workers in Staten Island made history in organizing the first union in the company's history. Instead of continuing to pour millions of dollars into union-busting efforts, Amazon must recognize the union and negotiate with workers in good faith.

    CEOs at large corporations are paid 350x more than what their average worker makes. Is that the kind of economic reality we should accept? I don't think so.

    There is nothing radical about saying that the wealthiest people in this country ought to pay their fair share of taxes. What's radical is Jeff Bezos making $142,667 every 60 seconds while more than half our people live paycheck to paycheck.

    Congratulations to New Mexico for becoming the first state in the nation to make all of its public colleges and universities tuition free regardless of income or immigration status. Now, it's time to make all public colleges and universities tuition free in America.

    New Mexico’s new tuition-free college program is unusually inclusive, generous and simple. But can it be sustained?

    As of today, the workers at Warrior Met have been on strike for one year while BlackRock, its largest shareholder with $10 trillion in assets, has sat on its hands and allowed the workers and their families to struggle. They can and they must intervene to meet workers' demands.

    For the very first time, workers at were successful in organizing a union at an Amazon facility. I congratulate them on their extraordinary victory. I believe it's going to be a shot in the arm for this country's labor movement.
