Bernie Sanders: I stand in solidarity with @AlphabetWorkers who are organizing to form a union at Google. What these workers are fighting for is not radical. They want fair wages and a workplace free from abuse, retaliation, intimidation and discrimination. And that is exactly what they deserve.

Bernie Sanders: No, Donald Trump, there are no votes for you to find. The American people have spoken and at 12:01 pm on January 20, you will no longer be president.

Bernie Sanders: It is a sad and tragic day for our country that 140 members of the House of Representatives, 13 senators and a defeated president are attempting to undermine American democracy and our Constitution. They will not succeed.

Bernie Sanders: Joe Biden will be President at noon on January 20. Republican attempts to overturn the election only demonstrate their disdain for voters, democracy and the will of the American people.

Bernie Sanders: I am on the Senate floor with a compromise: Let us vote on both $2,000 survival checks and McConnell's alternative, and see where the chips fall. Working families need help NOW. Let us not go home until the American people see their Senators vote! https://t.co/7Y9rita2LF

Bernie Sanders: Today, I will ask that the Senate vote yes or no on two bills: 1. The House passed $2,000 survival checks 2. Mitch McConnell’s alternative bill What objection could he possibly have to voting on his own bill? Let the Senate vote on $2,000 checks, Mitch!

Bernie Sanders: Mitch McConnell says $2,000 checks are "socialism for the rich." Ha! Here are the tax rebate checks corporations received from Trump's tax plan: Amazon: $129 million Delta: $187 million Chevron: $181 million GM: $104 million IBM: $342 million That's socialism for the rich!

Bernie Sanders: I’m delighted that Mitch McConnell suddenly decided to care about “socialism for the rich”! That means the huge tax breaks for billionaires that he helped pass—not the $2,000 direct payments that America’s struggling working-class families desperately need.

Bernie Sanders: All of a sudden, Mitch McConnell is "worried" about giving a $2,000 check to someone who "doesn't need it." That's funny. He had no problem giving a $560 million tax break to Sheldon Adelson who is worth $34.3 billion. Total hypocrisy! Let the Senate vote on $2,000 now, Mitch!

Bernie Sanders: Republican leadership has endless amounts of money for bloated military budgets and tax breaks for billionaires. But when working families need help, oh my God, we can’t afford it! I am a little tired of that hypocrisy.

Bernie Sanders: The American people deserve to know: Does their Senator support or oppose providing a $2,000 direct payment to the working class? Mitch McConnell has the right to vote against this legislation. But he should not have the right to block a vote. https://t.co/4lIxKnjXYp

Bernie Sanders: All of a sudden Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans are worried that someone in America might get a $2,000 check "who doesn't need it." Funny. They had no problem giving a $1.4 billion tax break to Charles Koch and his family with a net worth of $113 billion. What hypocrisy!

Bernie Sanders: I'm trying to figure out what the problem is with voting up or down on $2,000 direct payments to working people. Senate Republicans can't seem to give me a clear answer.

Bernie Sanders: “I don't know how to live anymore. Sometimes it's so hard." This family says $2,000 checks would help them pay their back rent and survive.

Bernie Sanders: Trump supports the $2,000 payments, Biden supports the $2,000 and the American people support $2,000. McConnell must allow a vote on the $2,000 payments now.

Bernie Sanders: This is about life and death for millions of people. The Senate must approve the $2000 for every working class adult.

Bernie Sanders: "If we want to restore faith in our government, now is the time to address the pain, and the anxiety and the fear that so many of our people are feeling," Sen. Sanders says about the need for Covid-19 stimulus checks. "Let us do this $2,000 per adult."

Bernie Sanders: Two-thirds of the House voted to provide $2,000 in direct payments to the working class. Now it’s the Senate’s turn to do that—no excuses. Unless McConnell agrees to a vote on $2,000 relief checks, Congress will be spending New Year’s Eve in the Capitol. https://t.co/YYNYub2xFE

Bernie Sanders: Today, I will be going to the floor of the Senate to demand that the Senate pass a $2,000 direct payment to every working class American in this country. What would a $2,000 direct payment mean to you?

Bernie Sanders: This week on the Senate floor Mitch McConnell wants to vote to override Trump's veto of the $740 billion defense funding bill and then head home for the New Year. I'm going to object until we get a vote on legislation to provide a $2,000 direct payment to the working class.

Bernie Sanders: The House passed a $2,000 direct payment for working people. Now it's the Senate's turn. If McConnell doesn't agree to an up or down vote to provide the working people of our country a $2,000 direct payment, Congress will not be going home for New Year's Eve. Let's do our job.

Bernie Sanders: Along with Vice President-elect @KamalaHarris and Sen. @EdMarkey, I've been fighting for months to get Congress to pass a $2,000 direct payment for the working class. The House must pass this legislation tomorrow and the Senate must quickly follow suit. Let's get this done – NOW!

Bernie Sanders: Finally. Now, Trump must get Mitch McConnell and his Republican friends in the Senate to pass legislation to provide $2,000 in direct payments to the working class— legislation I introduced with @SenKamalaHarris and @SenMarkey 7 months ago.

Bernie Sanders: 14 million Americans will lose their unemployment benefits if Trump does not sign Covid relief legislation today. Mr. President: Stop playing golf and sign this bill NOW! And tell Mitch McConnell to pass legislation to provide $2,000 direct payments to the working class.

Bernie Sanders: In this dangerous moment – COVID, oligarchy, economic desperation, climate change, a dysfunctional health care system, systemic racism, etc. – we must continue fighting for a political revolution and transformative change. Nothing less than the future of the world is at stake.

Bernie Sanders: Let's be clear: The top 1% & large corporations did NOT need a $1 trillion tax break. The U.S. did NOT need to spend $6 trillion on endless wars. The billionaire class does NOT need to pay a lower tax rate than the bottom 90%. The working class NEEDS a $2,000 survival check.

Bernie Sanders: Jane and I wish you a safe and merry Christmas, and happy holidays. This has been an enormously difficult year for far too many. As we head into the new year, let us rededicate ourselves to building a world of peace, justice and compassion for all.
