@sanders.senate.gov: "We have already had 15 Republicans in the Senate defy Trump and say, 'Release the SNAP funds.' So I think that if we had held firm, it would be the Republicans who would yield. That was not the position of these 8 Democrats."

Why is Trump going after America's air traffic controllers, today of all days?

Supreme Court denies Kim Davis' petition to revisit same-sex marriage ruling The judges will not revisit the landmark 2015 decision in Obergefell v Hodges.

Tiny violin 🎻 for homobigot Kim Davis as SCOTUS refused to take her case. No explanation given. Obergefell v Hodges is safe for now.

"This is a win for same-sex couples everywhere who have built their families and lives around the right to marry."

Democrats can't defeat Trump-MAGA authoritarianism without an agenda that stands squarely on the side of working people.

We need a pro-worker, pro-democracy, anti-establishment movement that will take on oligarchy like never before.

It starts with the party rejecting Big Money.

This is a bad deal, and the old way of doing things is clearly not working.

We need new leaders in the Senate.

I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.

We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.

A vote for this bill is a mistake.

Someone please explain to me how will a vote NEXT month on ACA Subsidies work? Rates are out and up enormously. Will there be a special enrollment period if the subsidies are continued? I mean this is ALL hypothetical anyway, because does anyone really believe that there will be a vote on this? SAD!

42M Americans on SNAP were made to STARVE for the same outcome, federal workers went without pay, now people on the ACA Marketplace will have their rates SKYROCKET because you know the GOP will NEVER let this vote happen on Subsidies. EPIC FAIL!

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
