At this point, Medicare-for-all is the least we can do. We must start the conversation on a national health system like in Sweden or Norway. In US, many have no access to quality healthcare at all. And wait times are worse than in our government run healthcare system: the VA.

I am honored to have the endorsement of Senator Bernie Sanders. Bernie and I share the same goal: to make life more affordable for working families. He has dedicated his life to putting power in the hands of ordinary Americans instead of the ultra rich, and I’m excited to work

Tonight’s episode of @60Minutes will include a segment on the impact of federally funded science and recent cuts to science funding. Our lab’s development of base editing and prime editing and their clinical applications will be among the work described in the episode.

I went on Fox News to make the case for national health insurance & Medicare for All. Democrats need to be screaming this from the rooftops.

Trump put tariffs on things not grown in the U.S. (coffee, bananas, etc.), causing prices to go up. Then they turn around and remove the tariffs and claim they are lowering prices. Scott, the American people aren’t stupid.

(It’s the tariffs)

I am honoured to receive the endorsement of Representative @PramilaJayapal, a relentless champion for affordable healthcare. Together, we'll work in Congress to fight for the deal working families across the country deserve.

Oh, Trump and the Republicans can’t stand how the big, bad insurance companies are ripping-off Americans. Really? Are you serious? Then I welcome your support for Medicare for All. Let’s end the greed of the insurance industry & make healthcare a human right, not a privilege.

But I thought that the election wasn’t about the economy?

Collins: When the president says there's virtually no inflation and that grocery prices are going down, do you agree with him on that? Greene: No. I go to the grocery store myself. Grocery prices remain high. Energy prices are high.

In 2024, Republicans promised to lower the cost of groceries. In 2025, they’re shrugging it off, saying “food prices always go up.” For too long, government’s failure to deliver has been treated as inevitable. My administration will prove that government can work for you.

And still waiting…

This city belongs to you.
