Why does the U.S. pay the highest price in the world for prescription drugs? It is simply because of greed. https://t.co/eBblx1H57b

My question for Jeff Bezos is simple: you are with $182 billion, so why are you trying to make it harder for your workers to organize for higher wages and better benefits? What is your problem? https://t.co/XMaJczcqHd

Republicans used the budget process to give $1. 9 trillion in tax breaks mostly to the top 1% and tried to throw 30 million people off their health care. We are using it to address the crises facing working families. https://t.co/3Z70qprA4n
If Amazon workers in Alabama – a strong anti-union state – vote to form a union, it'll be a shot heard around the world. If they can negotiate higher wages & better working conditions in the South, it'll benefit every worker in America. Thank you Mr. President, for speaking out.

The family that owns Walmart is worth more than $200 billion. The CEO of McDonalds received $18 million in compensation in 2019. Are we really supposed to believe they can’t afford to pay their workers $15 an hour? Absurd. https://t.co/UrMvXUvr4p

Unbelievable. There are some Democrats who want to lower the eligibility age for direct payments from $75,000 to $50,000 for individuals, and $150,000 to $100,000 for couples. In other words, working class people who got checks from Trump would not get them from Biden. Brilliant!

Minimum wage in 1968 (in today's dollars): $11.64 Federal minimum wage in 2021: $7.25 Please do not tell me that in the richest country on Earth, we cannot guarantee a living wage of at least $15 an hour to every worker in America.
We fought very hard to make vaccines for COVID-19 free for every man, woman & child in America. Now, we must make certain that no health insurance company, pharmacy or medical provider is able to charge the uninsured or under-insured any type of fee before they get the vaccine.
During the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, there should NOT be a tradeoff between survival checks that the working class, seniors children & the disabled desperately need and emergency unemployment benefits. In the richest country in the world, we must do both.

Here's how rigged the tax code is: If you make less than $25,000 a year you are nine times more likely to be audited by the IRS than a CEO who makes $30 million. Meanwhile, the top 1% is responsible for 70% of the $381 billion in taxes that go unpaid each year. #TaxTheRich
“Our federal minimum wage has been stuck at $7.25 since 2009, which the longest stretch… since it was first adopted in 1938 that it’s been frozen.” –Tsedeye Gebreselassie, director of work quality at the National Employment Law Project https://t.co/1DKr23EkZF

The following mail piece being sent in LA is a lie. I endorsed @R_JonesSawyer because he is the best candidate to represent progressive values. Deceptive political ads have no place in our political process. Efren Martinez must condemn whoever is making this effort on his behalf. https://t.co/jz3AH67l7X

Trump's not alone. Over a three-year period, the top 1% avoided $800 billion in taxes. That's enough to: Make public colleges tuition free Eliminate child hunger Provide clean drinking water to all End homelessness

There is a reason why our death rate per captia in terms of COVID-19 is much higher than almost any other country. We have a president who from the beginning downplayed this pandemic and who is at war with science, doctors and reseachers. https://t.co/jJdJ6s6Y3v
