The debt limit is not about future spending--it's about meeting obligations we've already made, like the bipartisan, overwhelmingly popular CARES Act.

Your job, the Fed's job, members of Congress' job is to serve the public, not their stock portfolios.

Are we hostage to Republicans who are threatening to blow up a part of the economic system because they want to do that for politics? That’s just not where we should be as a nation.

It`s time to call the Republicans out over this. Are you kidding me? On the debt ceiling. When Donald Trump was president and needed to raise the debt ceiling over and over again, Democrats said yes, we get it. And what are we trying to…

And that`s on the Republicans.

I am tired of waiting on this. We need to change the way that Washington does business, and we need to change it now.

And I take it you are saying, no, you will not agree to do that for a 4-year period.

I am firmly committed to our government working fairly, efficiently, and responsively for the American people.

I have asked you to make some commitments that will help at least reduce the speed of the revolving door.

What are we trying to raise the debt ceiling for now? To cover the debts that were incurred during the Trump administration. And the Republicans want to turn around and play political games with that? They want to threaten to blow up our…

I want to secure some commitments from you that you will at least reduce the speed of the revolving door.

Whether it is Democrats or Republicans, the revolving door between government officials and industries they regulate undermines confidence in government officials and whether they are working for themselves or working for the American…

I take it you are saying 'no' to a 4-year commitment?

Will you commit to recuse yourself from working on any matters related to your former clients for 4 years if confirmed?

I want a 'yes' or 'no.'

This so-called 'corporate greenwashing' lets giant banks get these great headlines without doing the serious work that we need to protect our environment.

The time for climate action is now, and I know from your work that you take these issues seriously.

The science is clear. Climate change is an existential threat to every living thing on this Earth.

During the past 5 years, following the signing of the Paris Agreement, the world's biggest banks have put $3.8 trillion into financing fossil fuel exploration, drilling, and trading.

The Earth's climate is truly in crisis, but there is good news. We are not powerless here.

SSI is meant to be a lifeline for millions of low-income seniors and people with disabilities, but decades-old eligibility rules are forcing Americans who rely on SSI to live in poverty.

advocates have been calling for long-overdue reforms like increasing SSI asset limits, which were included in the SSI Restoration Act that Senators Brown, Sanders, and I reintroduced earlier this year.

Governors matter too. Just consider this week what we`ve seen in Texas, a state legislature, a Republican governor, who are willing to set vigilantes loose to prey on vulnerable women who want to make their own decisions about their bodies.

I will fight with everything I've got to keep from putting one more Donald Trump Republican in office.

This enables people to target abortion providers, people who give advice, people who try to help, everything to say we are going to isolate and make life as hard as possible for those who don`t have resources. They are not going to get the…
