Some Tweets from Elizabeth Warren

    Exciting news: We just passed one million contributions made to our campaign! We’re 100% grassroots-funded, & every person who chips in owns a piece of our movement. I couldn’t be more grateful. After Caitlyn made the millionth donation, I called with a double woo-hoo thank you!
  • Our government should keep Americans safe—not allow private prisons to profit off of locking people up. Here’s how my plan to ban private prisons works.
  • Woo-hoo, thanks for coming out today, New Hampshire! I'm grateful down to my toes that we got to talk about the big, structural change we're fighting for.
  • To get serious about climate change and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, we need to end Big Oil’s stranglehold on Washington. As president, I’ll eliminate fossil fuel subsidies and put a moratorium on new fossil fuel leases offshore or on public lands.
  • Donald Trump’s tweets are ugly and racist. They’re purposefully designed to turn us against one another. We cannot let that happen. Instead, we must follow my friend Elijah Cummings’ example and keep doing the work for the American people.
  • Teaching law at was a dream come true, but incredibly hard while raising two little kids. Lack of high-quality, affordable child care almost sunk me—until Aunt Bee came to help. The fight for is personal for me.
  • Every letter I read gives me yet another reason to keep dreaming big and fighting hard for the big, structural change that Americans everywhere want to see. I’m grateful down to my bones for your support.
  • I’m running my campaign differently. No federal lobbyists. No fundraisers with mega-donors. No money from PACs of any kind. Instead, I’m spending my time talking with you. Will you chip in $3 right now? It will go a long way—and I might call to say thanks!
  • Our federal government has underserved HBCUs and MSIs for decades. We need to right these wrongs—starting with my plan to invest at least $50 billion in these important institutions.
  • Thank you for having me, !
  • A person’s HIV status has no bearing on their ability to parent. This is just the latest in a long line of the Trump administration’s cruel attacks on immigrant communities. I want to be clear here: Families belong together—no exceptions.
  • This is a big win for women who work in politics and for their families. Grateful for ’s leadership in making this possible! Next, let’s go a step further and make a reality for everyone.
  • The ADA is about civil rights, opportunity, and our values—but there’s more work to be done. As I celebrate the ADA today, I'm committing to continue the fight to protect these rights every step of the way.
  • That changed with the passage of the ADA—which came about thanks to activists and leaders in Congress like Rep. Major Owens. It not only helped dismantle prejudices about Americans with disabilities, it recognized their right to live, work, and love independently.
  • On the 29th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, I’m thinking about my first job out of college—teaching students with speech and learning disabilities at a public school. I saw the difficulties my kids faced navigating a world that wasn’t designed for them.
  • The playing field is tilted against entrepreneurs and small business owners of color. A typical Black entrepreneur starts a business with $35,000 in capital—a third of the startup capital for the typical white entrepreneur. Here’s how we change that:
  • HBCUs have always had to do more with less. Many are in danger of closing, or have already closed. That's why I have a plan to invest at least $50 billion in HBCUs.
  • For black moms in particular, this maternal mortality crisis is an epidemic. I have a plan to hold health systems accountable for protecting them.
  • We have the power to prevent these deaths. We need paid leave so that new moms have time to recover—and we need so that moms (and their babies!) have access to the health care they need.
  • I’m running a different kind of campaign. Since I don’t spend my time asking rich donors for big checks, I get to spend it with voters instead. That way everyone can get a selfie!
