In 2018, we had a goal: help elect reformers to Congress who could get to work fixing our democracy on Day 1. Now, the #ForThePeople Act has passed the House, and Americans across the country are demanding a vote in the Senate. Watch the story of #HR1 >> youtu.be/plk1ErnG2DA

One of the most manipulative tactics plutocrats use is convincing people that the systemic issues we face are a character flaws instead of policy flaws. Working people aren’t dumb or inferior; nor are they why insulin costs $300 or huge co’s pay starvation wages. Corruption is.

Ben Shapiro: "If you had to work more than one job to have a roof over your head or food on the table, you probably shouldn't have taken the job that's not paying you enough. That'd be a you problem"

At a time when Donald Trump and cowardly Republican politicians all over this country are working overtime to suppress the vote, @staceyabrams' work to protect voting rights is more important than ever. If you’re an American citizen who is over 18, you must be able to vote.

I am excited to announce the launch of #FairFight2020, a comprehensive initiative to staff, fund, and train voter protection teams on-the-ground in battleground states across the country. Join our fight to protect the vote at fairfight2020.org.

My post was a lament - that so many people in my overwhelmingly Hispanic hometown would give large money to a President who is using it to target Hispanics as ‘invaders’. No one was doxxed — no private address or phone #s were shared. I’ve never engaged in that. @Morning_Joe


Uh, @DouthatNYT you realize that Joe Biden wasn't on stage last night, right? We are concerned that this take might cause you to overheat.


On @CNN @ewarren just schooled an entire panel about how we must make our democracy and economy work for all not just those at the top


In terms of who we can trust to #restoredemocracy the #DemocraticDebate proved that @BernieSanders @ewarren are a cut above the field


I signed up to fight Nazis 73 years ago and I'll do it again if I have to. Hatred, bigotry, & fascism should have no place in this country.

Corruption is everywhere in Washington, whether we're talking about money in politics or closed-door negotiations where our rights get thrown to the wayside. Our next president needs to be brave enough to take it on. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…

Disgusting. My democracy plan would re-enfranchise those who have served their time and left prison—and prevent states like Florida from overriding their rights with Jim Crow-era nonsense. motherjones.com/politics/2019/…

My skeptics often accuse me of being boring, of hammering the same themes. They’re probably right. It's never made sense to me that a few people have incredible wealth and power while most have none. Should we ever achieve justice, I promise I’ll write some new speeches.

Don't know why @joebiden said @NRA not the enemy @NRA leaders fight against gun control to help gun industry sell more guns Firearm industry (which partly funds @NRA) is purposely designing weapons of increased lethality to increase profits. Both are enemies. #DemDebate2
