Just like Bezos and Musk wished, Trump neutered the National Labor Relations Board.

Now, union-busting corporations can exploit their employees with impunity.

Last I checked, that's not standing with workers the way Trump promised.

I have never seen anyone flip as quickly as Robert F. Kennedy did on the question of whether a woman has the right to control her own body.

The Trump Administration’s action to suspend all federal grants & loans will have a devastating impact on the health and well-being of millions of children, seniors on fixed incomes, and the most vulnerable people in our country.

It is a dangerous move towards authoritarianism.

Right now, in America, 22 million workers make less than $15/hr. 40 million make less than $17/hr.

Shamefully, the federal minimum wage hasn't been raised since 2009 and remains at $7.25/hr.

I asked Trump's nominee for Treasury if we should raise it.

His response?

"No sir."

People are angry at a health insurance industry which denies people the care they desperately need while Big Pharma makes billions and billions of dollars in profit.

The time is long overdue to guarantee healthcare to every man, woman, and child in this country.

Trump claims he wants to limit credit card interest rates to 10%.

Great. So do I.

That’s why I'm introducing the legislation to do just that during this Congress.

Almost 600,000 Americans are sleeping out on our streets.

Millions of people in this country are paying as much as 60% of their limited income on housing.

We must invest in low-income and affordable housing. Now.

I tried to raise the minimum wage to $15/hr.

Not ONE Republican supported it.

A $7.25/hr minimum wage is an absolute disgrace. Americans should not be forced to work for starvation wages.

We must raise the wage to at least $17/hr.

Our country is rapidly evolving into two Americas.

One consists of millions of working class families struggling to get by. The other: less than a thousand billionaires who have never had it so good.

That is not democracy. That is oligarchy. www.sanders.senate.gov/op-eds/two-a...

The precedent set today should upset every American who believes in our democratic form of government.

It appears that from now on no major legislation can be passed without the approval of the wealthiest person in this country.

That’s not democracy, that’s oligarchy.
