This is our moment in history. Our moment to dream big, fight hard, and win in 2020. But Democrats can’t win if we’re scared and looking backward. If you’re ready to join this fight, chip in $3 to our grassroots campaign. #WarrenNYC
Donald Trump is corruption in the flesh. But our problems didn't start with Donald Trump. A country that elects Donald Trump is already in serious trouble. #WarrenNYC
We win when we meet the moment. We win when we stand up for what is right. And we win when we get out there and fight for it. If you’re ready to fight, join me: http://ewar.ren/join_us #WarrenNYC
2020 is about the direction America goes, not just for four years, but for generations to come. There’s a lot at stake in this election, and I know people are scared. But we can't choose a candidate we don't believe in just because we're too scared to do anything else. #WarrenNYC
Corruption has put our planet at risk. Corruption has broken our economy. And corruption is breaking our democracy. I know what’s broken, I’ve got a plan to fix it, and that’s why I’m running for President of the United States. #WarrenNYC
When you see a government that works great for those with money and connections and doesn’t work much for anyone else, that’s corruption—plain and simple. It’s time to call it out for what it is. #WarrenNYC
Join us live from Washington Square Park tonight as I share the story of how working women organized to change the course of history—and how we can make the big, structural change our future depends on. #WarrenNYC

great stuff from @ewarren who correctly notes that, while Trump IS the most corrupt president ever, he’s really just exploiting a system that was already broken. big, structural reforms are needed to fix our democracy and they need to go deeper than Trump.

Grateful for @WorkingFamilies endorsement today. Together, we're going to make the big, structural change we need so that government works for all of us—not just the wealthy and well-connected.
Together, we can root out the corruption in Washington. We can make big, structural changes that will restore our trust in government. And when I’m President, that’s exactly what I plan to do.
That’s not all. I've also released plans to make sure that no president is above the law, to tackle defense contractor coziness at the Pentagon, and to expand oversight, transparency, and enforcement for all contractors hired by the federal government.
We'll fix our criminal laws to make sure we can hold corrupt officials accountable. And we'll ensure that our federal agencies and courts work for the people. That includes holding our federal judiciary—including the Supreme Court—to the highest ethical standards.
We'll end lobbying as we know it, strengthening our lobbying laws and helping to break the grip that lobbyists have on our government. The voices of corporations and powerful interests shouldn’t be the only voices influencing government—but that’s exactly what’s happened.
We'll start by strengthening public integrity rules for federal officials in every branch of government, rooting out financial conflicts of interest, and slamming shut the revolving door between government and industry.
My plan lays out the most sweeping set of anti-corruption reforms since Watergate—nearly one hundred proposals. The goal is simple: Take power away from the wealthy and the well-connected and put it back where it belongs—in the hands of the people.
But these problems didn’t start with Trump. On issue after issue, widely popular policies are blocked because corporations and billionaires use their money and influence to stop any progress. To fix it, we’ll need big, structural change to fundamentally transform our government.
The Trump administration is the most corrupt of our lifetimes. Trump is a walking conflict of interest, and many of his cabinet secretaries are no better. His Supreme Court Justices were hand-picked by right-wing extremist groups, and some of his donors are now ambassadors.
In 2019, just 17% of Americans trusted government to do the right thing. Why? Because our government works great for the wealthy and well-connected, but not for everyone else. That’s corruption, plain and simple—and I’ve got a plan to fight back.
