The ability to spend time with your newborn baby should not depend on where you work, your income, or your zip code. We must end the absurdity of being the only major country not to guarantee paid family and medical leave.

400 richest Americans' wealth in 1991: $288 billion 400 richest Americans' wealth today: $5.3 trillion Americans unable to afford to fill their prescriptions today: 18,000,000 Who is our economy working for?

88% of the American people support our efforts to lower prescription drug costs — 88%! Is it just me, or is that an overwhelming majority of this country? I say we get this done. truthout.org/articles/poll-…

Pop quiz. Take 1,500 pharmaceutical lobbyists up on Capitol Hill, add them together with 535 members of Congress — what do you get? If you guessed 'the American people paying the highest prices on the planet for prescriptions,' you guessed right. Let's end Big Pharma's greed.

The patent for insulin was sold for $1 so it would be available to all. Insulin in the United States is now the 6th most expensive liquid in the world. That is the power of Big Pharma's greed when it goes unchallenged. NOW is the time that we finally take them on.

Not one member of the GOP voted for the expanded Child Tax Credit. Not one of you is prepared to support paid family and medical leave. "Party of parents"? Give me a break.

From Big Pharma to John Deere to Kellogg's, there is a common thread: corporate greed. Under a system which is meant to create more and more wealth for fewer and fewer people, 'enough' will never be enough. We must build working class solidarity and end their greed.

Do you know how much the pharmaceutical industry is spending to make it so they can continue charging you the highest prices on the planet for prescription drugs? $300 million on lobbying alone! Do you got that?

The attempted recall of Gov. Newsom is a bold-faced GOP power grab. If we have any hope of addressing climate change, guaranteeing health care to all, and passing real immigration reform, it cannot succeed. California: return your ballot or vote 'NO' in-person by tomorrow, 9/14.

Congratulations to the best Governor California's ever had! Gov. Gavin Newsom! Can we sue the GOP billionaires who funded the bogus recall from outside CA? Californians shouldn't have to pay the taxes for it. aol.com/news/gov-gavin…

On 9/14 there will be a recall election for California governor Gavin Newsom. While this election is specific to CA, the repercussions affect the whole country. The only responsible choice is to vote “No” on this recall & encourage anyone registered to vote in CA to do the same.

If we disagree on the issues, that's fine — get up, make your case, win the votes! But do not be cowardly and try to prevent people from voting just because they're going to vote against you. YES — we must pass the For The People Act and make it easier to vote in this country.
