@BernieSanders is consistent on this issue - including electorally. Dem. Rep. Dan Lipinski signed this letter. Establishment Dems supported him in the 2018 primary despite his view. Bernie supported Marie Newman, who lost by just 2.4%. @Marie4Congress in 2020

That’s it. I’m calling Sen. McConnell’s office at (202) 224-2541. He has #HR8 stalled and he won’t bring it to the floor. I’m asking all candidates and their supporters—let’s inundate all his offices, email, and phones.

“His seat has been in the family for 36 unbroken years; Mr Lipinski inherited it from his father, William, who went on to open a one-man lobbying firm.” Not the way it’s supposed to work, which is why it’s not working for the people of #IL03 . #VoteTeamMarie

No one should have to live in constant fear of people who want them dead just because they simply exist. This is the reality of the hateful, racist rhetoric from @mtgreenee & other GOP members. I can’t begin to understand how @RashidaTlaib feels but I am with her all the way ❤️

Phasing out relief at a $50K income leaves millions of Americans behind. And let’s be clear: the income data they’re using is from 2019 — that’s BEFORE the pandemic. Millions have lost their jobs since then. Millions have closed their businesses. We cannot afford to go small.

Democrats are going to approve $1,400 checks. But they’re torn on who gets them. The conservaDem push from Manchin: Phaseout starts at incomes $50K/person, cuts off at $75K. But Chairmen Wyden & Sanders want to keep the $75K-$100K phaseout like last time. This is a live ball.

Sick of people in my own party who wring their hands and act like we’re totally powerless. Looking at you, Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema. Abolish the filibuster and codify abortion rights, or get the hell out of the way.

A Trump supporter in Kenosha, WI, told me the solution for working people without employer sponsored health insurance is for them to get a job that provides health insurance. He didn’t seem to see any logical issue with that.

Only hours after Trump incited a deadly assault on our Capitol, many Republicans still refused to take the bare minimum COVID-19 precaution and simply wear a damn mask in a crowded room during a pandemic—creating a superspreader event ON TOP of a domestic terrorist attack.

#IL03 needs a representative who won’t sell out working families by siding with corporate special interests. Dan Lipinski voted against Obamacare. He opposes paid sick leave. He won’t even support efforts to strengthen Social Security. (2/6)

Dan Lipinski continues to use Republican talking points, fear-mongering, and half truths to distract from the facts. He voted against the ACA, continues to attack the law, and supported cuts to Social Security and Medicare. It's time for him to go. #IL03
