Maybe, just maybe, after 18 school shootings in America in just 43 days of 2018 the Congress might want to consider common-sense gun safety legislation and save innocent lives.

Hey, Mr. President. The only people who love the current system are you, the drug companies and insurance companies. 30 million Americans have no health insurance and we pay the highest prices in the world. We must guarantee health care to all, not take it away. https://t.co/QmmJpB50QT

Bernie calls out what #SOTU (and Democratic response) ignored:

❌ Climate Change
❌ Citizen’s United
❌ Voter suppression of poor/POC
❌ Student debt epidemic
❌ Social Security underfunded: disabled die waiting
❌ 1/2 of seniors have no retirement

[Three-legged couch @3LeggedCouch]

@SenSanders nails it. The goal of the current/undercurrent GOP has been to destabilize governmental institutions to a point where we lose faith and allow other options (i.e. privatization). Government institutions are not the problem. The people running them are. #FeelTheBern https://t.co/5QeJ3GafcC

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

This government shutdown is part of the long-term, anti-government ideology paid for by the Koch brothers.

[FactPost @factpostnews]

#TBT to when Trump lectured President Obama about how to negotiate a deal to prevent a government shutdown, saying “the president has to lead.” “You have to get everybody in a room” to get a deal because it’s “good for the country.”

[Jeffery 🌹🏳️‍🌈🥧 @jeffeff82]

This should be the future of the Democrat party. But the establishment pushes corporate candidates. The corporations buy strong republicans and weak democrats. #Revolution #FeelTheBern #WhatsHiralHiding https://t.co/7d71ndEB8x

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

We asked Republicans to pass a budget that would protect the needs of working families. They preferred to shut down the government instead.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

For the first time in history, a one-party government was unable to keep the government going. That is pathetic.

[piper perabo @PiperPerabo]

We spent this year organizing, voting, protesting + raising our voices because “revolution is not a one time event.”

We see you St. Louis! 👊👏 #WomensMarch2018 #PowerToThePolls

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

I'm very disappointed that the Republicans chose to shut down the government. Leader McConnell insisted on going forward with a doomed vote rather than negotiating a serious agreement with the Democrats and Republicans who opposed him.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

How come Republicans can't negotiate an agreement on what 87 percent of Americans agree on?

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

.@realDonaldTrump should heed his own words:
“if there is a shutdown I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the president of the United States. He's the one that has to get people together.” #TrumpShutdown

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Republicans, listen to what the Pentagon told us: We cannot continue this uncertainty. How the hell do you run a military on a month-to-month basis. You can't do it. Republicans, do your job. Run the damn government. https://t.co/47WvBFXoK8

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

When Republicans control the Senate, House and White House, and they blame Democrats for the shutdown, I don't think anybody is going to take that seriously.
