Senate Republicans voted to repeal Biden's SAVE Plan which is eliminating student loan payments for people making less than $60,000 because it's too expensive.
Also: Senate Republicans want to repeal the estate tax which would give Elon Musk's family a $98.9 billion tax break.

Remember when Dianne Feinstein flew the confederate flag in front of San Fransisco's city hall to pander to the dixiecrats visiting the DNC in hopes of getting the VP ticket, & then a black activist dressed as a union soldier hiked the 50 ft pole & tore it down? That was awesome!

Educators spend an average of $500-$750 on school supplies for their students each year. They shouldn't have to pay out of pocket to teach.
School supplies should be free for both students and teachers. My Access to School Supplies Act would do just that.

You know who has to take out student loans? People who can’t afford school.
It’s classism.
College should be tuition-free.
Students who took out loans to pay for college rated their overall health and mental health as being worse than those who didn’t take out student loans. trib.al/xlG7qmy

"Imagine: Children just walking into the cafeteria and getting fed. No accounts that parents have to keep up, no time spent assessing families’ incomes or processing payments or running down parents who haven’t paid — no 'lunch shaming' — none of that."

Insurers’ denial rates are a critical measure of how reliably they pay for customers’ care. But they remain mostly secret to the public.
Federal and state regulators have done little to change that. propublica.org/article/how-o…

A big problem in American politics is that Democrats don’t do the things they promise to do, and Republicans always do the things they promise to do.

YES! If Biden doesn't run, @BernieSanders should absolutely run. Polling supports it especially with the youth vote.
It's less about Bernie as POTUS and more about getting an administration in charge that will prioritize working people and the planet.

Establishment Democratic Party is having an existential crisis because the old guard doesn't have younger politicians to pass the torch to that resonate strongly with voters.
Notice 2024 Dem polls keep leaving Bernie out - the most popular Dem (caucus) to prop up their picks.
