.@SenWarren: "Trump says he supports cracking down on corporate healthcare middlemen. We've got a bipartisan bill to get it done... I got a plan with Republican Senator Bernie Moreno to force billionaires to pay into Social Security at the same rate as a public school teacher, making that program solvent for another generation. And now, now is the time for Congress to expand on our bipartisan ROAD to Housing bill and pass additional legislation to build more homes. Mr. President we are ready to go."

Elizabeth Warren praising Talarico for campaigning on a platform that the system is rigged. “We are proving that our voice is louder than their money.”
"You've got the administration putting Stephen Miller in as chief of staff. And you have House Republicans picking Jim Jordan. This is like giving the American people a big finger [...] it looks like they're doubling down on Trump's failed policies." @ChrisVanHollen @VanHollenForMD @alivitali

"I am listening to all of the people from around the country that were calling for big change. There was also clearly an anti-Washington establishment tone to this election. So that's why I am now actively listening to people who are looking for that kind of change." @ChrisVanHollen @VanHollenForMD @alivitali

Warren: "Democrats must deliver popular, meaningful legislation to Trump's desk, and then dare him to veto it. Dare him to veto an increase to the minimum wage for hard-working Americans. Dare him to veto a ban on price gouging. Dare him to veto a ban on AI surveillance pricing ... you can't win what you don't fight for"
"If we don't deliver on affordability and the cost of living, if we don't deliver meaningful progress on uncorrupting government, that wave that brought us to the shore is going to sweep us right out again in two years." @bradlander

It’s wild how the crowd reacts to Elizabeth Warren just walking through the back area for Popular Mandate.
“The Democrats who won were straightforward about the fact that the economy is rigged against working people. They didn’t pussyfoot around about it; they made it clear: the economy is rigged.” @ewarren
"Accountability is coming. If you're a Wall Street executive, a Big Tech CEO, or a giant corporation that has been boosting your profits by cheating people, you should be worried." @ewarren
