    Pharmaceutical companies don't donate to our campaign and we don't want their money. We want to take on their greed and slash Americans' prescription drug costs in half.

    It is unacceptable to me that 18 million American families pay over half of their income toward housing. It is unacceptable to me that 500,000 Americans are homeless. I believe every American has a fundamental right to safe, decent and affordable housing.

    Trump promised he would bring down the cost of your prescriptions. He lied, and drug companies continue to kill Americans with their greed. I have no intention of letting them continue to get away with murder. We will stand up to Big Pharma and cut drug prices in half.

    The corporate greed of the Sackler family killed thousands and ruined the lives of millions. It’s unacceptable that Purdue Pharma could escape full public accountability through corporate bankruptcy, and its executives who broke the law should go to prison.

    Please read these replies. Our corporate-run health care system is killing Americans and drowning people in debt. We need Medicare for All, which will eliminate premiums, co-pays, and deductibles and guarantee coverage to all.
    What’s the most absurd medical bill you have ever received?

    1/3 Was reading all the Presidential candidates platforms on affordable housing/rent control + listening to most recent comments - he is spot on. I’m thankful that he is elevating the conversation around rent control at the federal level at this point in time cont.

    So many of my constituents have lost homes- even gone homeless- by unfair rent hikes. But Texas bans local rent control. That's why it’s so important that just announced his plan for national rent control to override special interests & protect millions of renters.

    This is what I mean by a rigged economy: Millions of Americans are falling into debt because they can't afford their prescription drugs. Meanwhile, drugmakers make huge profits off medication developed with taxpayer-funded research.

    We must treat undocumented people with dignity. When we are in the White House, we will end the ICE raids which are terrorizing communities all across this country and impose a moratorium on deportations.

    I am proud to support the workers who are standing up to the greed of GM. Our message to GM is a simple one: End the greed, sit down with the UAW and work out an agreement that treats your workers with the respect and the dignity they deserve.
    Nearly 50,000 GM workers will go on strike tonight at midnight, barring a major breakthrough. This would be the first major auto strike in more than a decade
