Bernie Sanders voted for the Crime Bill. Bernie Sanders voted against the Brady Bill five times. He thought a five day waiting period was too long to wait for guns. Bernie is also one of only 14 Senators who voted against Amber Alerts.
In 1989 @BernieSanders gave the strongest speech in Congress opposing the @JoeBiden Crime Bill.
Bernie then fought against it for 5 years.
This speech, which I think may be the best Bernie ever gave in Congress, was in April of 1994 opposing the Crime Bill once again.pic.twitter.com/9pw43wkJwh
3 Years After His 1st Speech Opposing the Crime Bill Bernie Goes Again
Bernie Sanders first opposed Joe Biden's Crime Bill in 1989. He then fought it for five years until he gave this powerful speech in 1994 opposing it yet again. Strongest speech out against it.

He is another Susan Collins. 'Concerned' and 'disappointed' about everything but votes for them anyway...

He gave one of the strongest speeches against the crime bill and then proceeded to run on it for the next four elections.

He always has an “explanation.” Like when he “explained” his vote to immunize gun manufacturers and sellers for the carnage their products cause.
-
But but nuance.

Good question... Answer belowpic.twitter.com/4nZkRXuFPX

Joe Biden wrote the VAWA. How is it possible to attack Biden on this when Bernie uses the bill Biden wrote as an excuse???

God bless him. How could anyone not admire him? How could anyone say he is racist, anti-black people? That's a lie. He cares. He is sincere. We need him as President.

Because we listen to POC? Because we look at his actual record and what he says versus what he does? ‘Leader in Civil rights’ and ‘moved to one of the whitest states, didn’t vote until he voted for himself at 40, ignored POC in VT’ do not really go together.
