The CEOs talked a lot about how much it costs to develop a new drug. But what they did not want to talk about is that 14 major pharmaceutical companies spent $87B more on stock buybacks and dividends over a recent 10-year period than what they spent on research & development.

Yesterday, I held a hearing in the Senate HELP Committee on the outrageous prices Americans pay for prescription drugs. It’s time for the CEOs of Big Pharma to put the health of the American people over the wealth of their stockholders.

LIVE: Congress is about to send $14 billion in military aid to Netanyahu’s right-wing government, as he starves thousands of Palestinian children and is threatening a ground invasion of Rafah. This is UNACCEPTABLE. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Trust me when I say that I will always put the needs of Tennesseans first, as your next Senator. Like many of you, I’ve had enough of Marsha choosing her corporate donors over us. Now more than ever, we need to vote her out and get real leadership in Washington!

If you watch television in America, the word working class will never, ever be used. This country likes to pretend we are a classless society, where three people just happen to own more wealth than the bottom half of America. It’s time to change that status quo.

The United States has got to say loudly and clearly to Netanyahu and his right-wing government: You are not getting another nickel of U.S. taxpayer money to murder women and children in Gaza.

This is a historic announcement in the fight for universal child care & will save more than 100,000 low-income families hundreds of dollars a month. I’m glad to see President Donald J. Trump taking this step & I’ll continue leading Progressive Caucus in the fight for nationwide universal child care.

Let me get this straight. Republicans are banning books, drag shows, and life-saving gender-affirming care, all to "protect children" But they're also rolling back child labor laws, blocking gun reform, and passing laws to force adolescents to give birth. Do I have that right?

Children are now beginning to die of starvation & dehydration in Gaza. The U.S. must immediately begin a massive humanitarian airdrop to the hardest-hit areas. And we must DEMAND that Netanyahu open the borders and let aid in at the scale necessary.

The United States, which has helped fund the Israeli military for years, cannot sit back and allow hundreds of thousands of innocent children in Gaza to starve to death.

Border walls are all over the news again. One thing the media isn’t covering: the horrific impact these barriers have on wildlife movement. This bear paced along the wall in Arizona for hours before giving up and turning back, blocked by the barrier.

#ClarenceThomas should recuse himself from all #Jan6th matters before the #SupremeCourt, including #Trump's "immunity" claim SCOTUS is taking up. But he won't. The cruises, the safaris, the billionaire back scratching—Thomas knows nothing about ethics. More w/ Abby D. Phillip šŸ‘‡

I'm Jane George, running for US Congress in TN's 2nd District against Tim Burchett, a member of the MAGA 8. It's time we address the restrictive abortion laws in Tennessee. #JaneGeorgeForCongress secure.actblue.com/donate/janegeo…

The GOP says they support IVF but last week blocked a vote for federal IVF protections because they say it’s a states’ rights issue. They’re playing the same game as when they said we didn’t need to worry about Roe because it was settled law and wouldn’t be overturned.

If you paid $1 in federal income taxes, you paid more than: Amazon in 2017-2018 AT&T in 2021 Target in 2022 T-Mobile in 2018-2020 & 2022 Dish Network in 2020 & 2022 We can no longer tolerate a rigged tax code that allows corporations to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.

In traveling around the country and talking to thousands of Americans across each and every state, one thing is clear: The people are far, far more decent than many people in government representing them.

If you don't live in a "swing state," your vote still counts, but it's worth a lot less. Here's how we can reform the Electoral College to fix that. NOTE: Since making this video, we've come one step closer, with Minnesota joining the map.

I know, it sounds radical. But maybe, just maybe we should create an economy that works for all, not just for Mr. Bezos and Mr. Musk.
