Elizabeth Warren
The Public Record
Elizabeth Ann Warren is an American attorney, academic, and politician serving as the senior United States senator from Massachusetts since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, she has been a prominent advocate for consumer protection, economic equality, and corporate regulation. Warren gained national recognition for her work in establishing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and has focused on issues such as student debt relief and healthcare reform during her tenure in the Senate.
The Department of Education under Betsy DeVos has now said that she's in the way of these other agencies trying to enforce legal rules to help students.
I strongly oppose turning back in the wrong direction by attacking the health insurance coverage of millions of Americans and gutting the Medicaid program.
Now, Mr. Muniz, at this point, Betsy DeVos isn't really even trying to hide the fact that she's giving her friends at student loan companies and--the for-profit student loan companies and colleges pretty much anything on their wish list…
You know, as Senator Franken pointed out, we know that once your boss got a $25,000 political donation from Donald Trump, you didn't join the other states that were suing Trump University for cheating students.
Do you think they have jurisdiction? If you don't have an opinion on that, I'm sorry, but you just sound like a guy who's going to say, 'Whatever Betsy DeVos wants me to say, I promise I'll sit down and do that.'
Credit reports may look objective, but they have a disproportionate impact on people of color.
Betsy DeVos has filled the Education Department with for-profit college hacks, including a former Bridgepoint executive.
At the time of their respective incidents, did the crews of the Fitzgerald and the Antietam and the McCain have up-to-date warfare certifications?
I want to say to all of our Navy families who have lost loved ones, thank you for being here today.
For example, 19 State Attorneys General led by Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey have sued Betsy DeVos for illegally delaying rules to help students who have been defrauded by for-profit colleges.
What changes or process improvements has the Navy made to address this issue and limit the hours worked by sailors while deployed or in port?
The unemployment rate already for black Americans is twice that of white Americans.
Do you believe it's irresponsible to allow our sailors to deploy repeatedly on cruises without the training they need to ensure the safety of the ship and its crew?
it has been over 7 weeks since the Senate voted on three different versions of the Republican bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Each of these terrible bills would have stripped healthcare coverage from tens of millions of Americans…
It looks like, from the point of view of the Department of Education, that these for-profit colleges can just go right on cheating students and so can the student loan companies.
I rise today to urge my colleagues to support my bipartisan amendment with Senator Lee calling for a ``think first'' assessment of recent Russian violations of the Intermediate- Range Nuclear Forces Treaty and the response of the United…
You rake in money on Medicare Advantage plans, you rake in money on Medicare Part D prescription drug plans, you rake in money from Medicaid, on and on, buckets of taxpayer money, but you're pulling out of the ACA market.
CFIUS, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, is responsible for reviewing the acquisitions by foreign companies to ensure that they do not threaten U.S. national security.
I believe that Congress should ignore your threats. If you want taxpayer money, then you ought to show up in the ACA plans as well and be there, just like other companies have done, and you ought to be able to provide decent coverage.
We do not want to wake up one day and discover that our adversaries have components of our national security technology because Congress and the Administration were asleep at the switch on this.
When Congress was talking about taking away health insurance from over 20 million Americans, a lot of companies, including Massachusetts Blue Cross and Blue Shield, stood up to fight for the people they insured, but not Anthem.
