Politician
July 8, 2022
Tweet - "Average hourly wages for American workers have remained nearly flat since 1960, while home prices have almost TRIPLED over the same time period. It's no wonder that nearly half of all Americans today spend at least 30% of their income on housing. Obscene."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
July 8, 2022
Letter to Antony Blinken, Secretary of State, and Alejandro Mayorkas, Secretary of Homeland Security - Calling for Extension and Re-Designation of Venezuela for TPS
Sen. Bernie Sanders, ...
July 3, 2022
Tweet - "I am proud of the major increase in Federally Qualified Community Health Centers in Vermont and the number of Vermonters who use them. While the struggle continues to guarantee health care to all, we have made significant progress in improving access to primary health care."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
June 30, 2022
Tweet - "President Biden is absolutely right. Senate Democrats must end the filibuster and codify the right to an abortion NOW. If you allow the broken rules of the Senate to stand in the way of guaranteeing basic rights for our people, you don't really stand for those rights."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
June 21, 2022
Letter to Chuck Schumer, Senate Majority Leader, and Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House - Securing Additional Funding to Protect Student Internet Access
Sen. Bernie Sanders, ...
June 20, 2022
Tweet - "In the French elections, given the choice between progressives who want to increase taxes on the rich, or right-wing extremists who are viciously anti-immigrant, the pro-business "centrist" party of Macron just couldn't make a choice. There's a lesson to be learned here."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
June 17, 2022
Letter to Leader Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, Leader McConnell, and Leader McCarthy - As Benefits Cliff Rapidly Approaches, Bennet Joins Colleagues in Push to Fight Food Insecurity
Sen. Bernie Sanders, ...
June 16, 2022
Rep. Peter Welch's Statement on Senate Passage of the Honoring Our PACT Act
Sen. Peter Welch
June 14, 2022
Letter to Shalanda Young, Director of the Office of Management and Budget, Robert Santos, Director of the US Census Bureau - Chairwoman Maloney, Rep. Tlaib, and Committee Democrats Push to Include the "Middle Eastern or North African" Response Category in U.S. Census, Federal Data
Sen. Peter Welch, ...
June 14, 2022
Tweet - "Right now, there are 1,500 paid lobbyists from both parties in Washington working overtime to make sure we don't represent our constituents who are dying and are sick and tired of paying outrageous prices for prescription drugs. What a disgrace."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
June 11, 2022
Tweet - "Making Gaza's beaches safe for swimming is a small but important step in addressing Gaza's environmental and humanitarian crisis. We must continue to bring people together for these efforts in Palestine and across the region."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
June 10, 2022
Tweet - "The January 6th hearings remind us that politics today is not a debate over ideas. It's about whether we maintain our democratic form of government against those who propagate a Big Lie, violence and authoritarianism."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
June 1, 2022
Tweet - "Sen. Manchin is right. Let's cut drug prices in half by strengthening the provision in the House-passed Build Back Better legislation to allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices like the VA has done for years, and pass the whole package with 50 votes next week. It's time to vote."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 26, 2022
NEWS: Sanders Speaks With Students Participating in "Vermont Day" at the Kennedy Institute for the U.S. Senate
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 26, 2022
Letter to Antony Blinken, Secretary of State - Ahead of Biden Visit to Israel, Stansbury, Merkley, 19 Senators and 62 Representatives Urge Administration to Engage Israeli Government to Prevent Evictions in Masafer Yatta
Sen. Bernie Sanders, ...
May 25, 2022
Tweet - "It is tragic but unsurprising that Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny will be sent to prison for 9 years. Putin's authoritarian regime cannot tolerate dissent, especially from someone who exposes the enormous wealth Putin and his cronies have stolen from the Russian people."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 25, 2022
Tweet - "Enough is enough. We must abolish the filibuster and pass gun safety legislation NOW. No one in America needs an AR-15. How many more children, mothers and fathers need to be murdered in cold blood before the Senate has the guts to ban assault weapons and take on the NRA?"
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 24, 2022
Tweet - "The horrific rampage in TX once again makes clear that there are some very sick people in this country with guns in their hands who should not have them. Congress may not be able to end this problem, but we must at least pass commonsense gun reforms to finally protect the public."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 23, 2022
Tweet - "The oligarchs in Davos party, the poor suffer. While 260 million people throughout the world will likely be pushed into extreme poverty this year -- trying to survive on less than $2 a day -- over 2,000 billionaires across the globe became $3.78 trillion richer during the pandemic."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 16, 2022
Letter to Mark Zuckerberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Meta Platforms, Inc. - Congressman Jason Crow & House Intelligence Committee Members Demand Facebook Crack Down on Pro-Russian Disinformation
Sen. Peter Welch, ...
May 14, 2022
Tweet - "This act of domestic terrorism by a racist, anti-Semitic white supremacist using an AR-15 should be a call to action. Let us finally pass common sense gun safety reforms. We cannot grow numb to this violence, and we must show our nation can come together to address this hatred."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 13, 2022
Tweet - "The United States has the most dysfunctional, inefficient, bureaucratic and expensive health care system in the world. It's time for Medicare for All."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 13, 2022
Tweet - "The attack by Israeli forces against mourners at the funeral of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh is an outrage. The United States must condemn this, and demand an independent investigation into her killing."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
May 13, 2022
Tweet - "Greed. Greed. Greed. While Americans are struggling at the pump, in the first three months of this year, 21 oil and gas companies made over $41 billion in profits, more than double their profits from last year. The problem is not inflation. The problem is corporate greed."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
