I sent a letter today with more than 70 of my colleagues in the House and the Senate urging President Biden to do everything within his power to guarantee rail workers the seven paid sick days that they desperately need.
@MandyMatney Wouldn’t the fake flat tire roadside “shooting” be considered attempted self harm at this point? It’s for his own good, per his own story.
sometimes i'm like "what is wrong with millennial women" and then i remember how in the early 2000s special k tried to wipe us all out by telling us to replace breakfast and lunch with a cup of cereal and a splash of skim milk
Cost for one vial of insulin:
🇦🇺: $6.94
🇬🇧: $7.52
🇫🇷: $9.08
🇩🇪: $11
🇨🇦: $12
🇯🇵: $14.40
🇺🇸: $98.70
No one should be forced to take out their wallets for insulin – a life-saving drug that was invented nearly 100 years ago. It's time to end the greed of the pharmaceutical industry.
And don't even get me started on what Tesla's relationship with the Chinese gvmnt may bring. They own the land his Shanghai factory sits on and can take it back whenever they think Elon's out of line. https://t.co/enKdFtiodT
No. I will apologize to no one for helping to pass the American Rescue Plan The problem is not that the working class got a $1,400 check 19 months ago. The problem is corporate greed, outrageously high prices and corporate profits that are at a 70-year high.
“Ron Johnson wants to raise the retirement age to 70.
If we all do our jobs for the next ten days, we can lower the retirement age for Ron Johnson!”

Corporate profits are at a 70-year high, median wages have gone down the sharpest in 25 years and corporations are spending $1 trillion on stock buybacks. Our goal must not be to "get wages down." Our goal must be to end corporate greed. The Fed must stop raising interest rates.
90% of the benefits from student debt relief will go to folks making under $75,000 a year, and not a CENT will go to those in the top 5%.
That’s what fighting — and DELIVERING — for working people looks like.
Not only do most Republicans want to make massive cuts to Social Security and Medicare, their bill to repeal the estate tax would provide 100% of the benefits to the top 0.1% including a tax break of up to $83 billion for the wealthiest family in America. How absurd is that?
The biggest domestic culprit for America’s current inflation? Big corporations that are using inflation as an excuse for raising prices above their own cost increases, resulting in the highest profit margins since 1950—while consumers are paying through the nose.
Know the truth.
I just stepped off the debate stage. JD Vance once again proved he’s an extremist, a fraud, and a phony.
