A humanitarian disaster is taking place in Yemen because of the Saudi-led bombing and blockade.
At #PMQs yesterday, I asked @Theresa_May whether she would use her meeting with the Saudi Crown Prince to halt arms supplies and demand an immediate ceasefire in Yemen.
“I’m not the bad guy” is not an electable movement.
Money out of politics is a movement.
Tuition-free College is a movement.
Justice for Puerto Rico & DREAMers are a movement.
Prison Abolition is a movement.
Environmental activism is a movement.
And I am a movement candidate.
US and Russia's ongoing modernisation programmes and escalatory language increases the risk of nuclear use and undermines the commitment to nuclear disarmament they have made under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. #nuclearban https://t.co/nhsLKruINl
Nearly 3 years of U.S.-Saudi war has turned Yemen into the worst humanitarian crisis on Earth. Senators Bernie Sanders and Mike Lee introduced a bipartisan bill to end the U.S. role in the war

Shirley Chisholm was the first black woman to serve in the U.S. Congress and the first black major party candidate for President in 1972. She fought for women’s rights, racial equality, and economic justice throughout her career. #BlackHistoryMonth
My constituents want action. My fellow Americans want action. Congressional Republicans need to listen to our voices and start putting children’s lives ahead of the NRA.

I’ve had a stalker for 8 years. He is mentally ill & potentially dangerous. I have two restraining orders against him. He recently sent me photos of the guns he was still able to buy at a gun show. Worrying about what he’s capable of keeps me up at night. We need gun control now.
@HuffPost Sorry, Obama, but we are powerless. Let's stop pretending this is a democracy. We live in an oligarchy and the gun-industry is one of our most powerful aristocratic lords.
There’s no coming back for a nation that is willing to watch its children being slaughtered, over and over again, and decides to do absolutely nothing about it.
Parkland, Florida marks the 18th school shooting -and the 40th mass shooting this year.
It’s February.

.@realDonaldTrump & @SpeakerRyan gave a $1.5 trillion tax cut to the 1%. But when my neighbors, our communities, need help, they say there's no money left.
I'm not running to give the rich another handout. I'm running to help the people who need it most.

Worker co-ops will bring the 99% democracy to where we spend the vast majority of our lives, the workplace. If workers have a vote, we control the economics of our community. Gaining higher wages, better hours, security and dignity; options that are rarely seen today!
I remember when @AdyBarkan told me about his diagnosis with ALS. His voice was clearer then, but his despair was shattering. His rise from that broken place—the new power in his faltering voice—is one of the most inspiring things I've ever seen.

#Privatization of prisons and schools makes humans commodities for profit. No social programs should be privatized without specific social improvement outcomes tied to it.
