More quotes by Bernie Sanders
Giving up is not an option if we want to prevent irreparable harm to our planet.
Bernie Sanders
I don't go around every other day calling for governors to resign. I don't think I ever have.
Bernie Sanders
There is far too little discussion in Washington about the collapse of the middle class , almost no discussion at all about the incredible income inequality and wealth inequality in this country, and the fact that we're moving toward an oligarch form of society.
Bernie Sanders
In my view, we need a massive federal jobs program which puts millions of our people back to work. We must end our disastrous trade policies. We need to raise the minimum wage to a living wage. And we have to fight for pay equity for women.
Bernie Sanders
It's the Democrats' same old weakness: much too much dependency on consultants and TV ads rather than mobilizing people.
Bernie Sanders
This country is never going to move forward unless we end Republican rule in the House and Senate.
Bernie Sanders
The first thing that I've got to think about is: What does a Donald Trump presidency mean for the people of my state and for the people of this country? And for the people of the world? I think it would be an absolute disaster. It would be beyond a disaster.
Bernie Sanders
We have organizations, whether it is ISIS or Al Qaida, who do believe we should go back several thousand years. We should make women third-class citizens, that we should allow children to be sexually assaulted. They are a danger to modern society.
Bernie Sanders
Real freedom must include economic security.
Bernie Sanders
Freedom of speech, the right to dissent, the right to protest, that is what America is about. And politically every leader in this country and every American has got to stand up against any form of violence. That is unacceptable.
Bernie Sanders
I know media is not necessarily focused on these things. But what a campaign is about is not Hillary Clinton, it's not Donald Trump. It is the people of this country, people who are working longer hours for lower wages, people who do not have health care or are underinsured.
Bernie Sanders
When we talk about the healthcare crisis in America we've got to also be talking about the dental crisis and how to address it.
Bernie Sanders
I believe what Martin Luther King Jr. believed. You remember what the title of the March on Washington was? Jobs and Freedom. What King understood is that you have to deal with the economic issues as well as the political issues and the civil rights issues.
Bernie Sanders
The fossil fuel industry for too long has shifted enormous costs of carbon pollution onto the public.
Bernie Sanders
We have to fundamentally rethink our trade policy and make it work not for the CEOs of large corporations, but for working people. So, if Trump wants to develop a rational trade policy which demands corporations start investing in this country, rather than China, that's something that we can work on.
Bernie Sanders
For better or worse, when Sen. Inhofe speaks, the Republican Party follows. And when the Republican Party follows, it is impossible to get real work done in the Congress.
Bernie Sanders
We are imprisoning or giving jail sentences to young people who are smoking marijuana.
Bernie Sanders
Can I work with corporations? Are there good corporations doing incredible cutting edge research and development? Absolutely they are. And we should be proud of them.
Bernie Sanders
Brothers and sisters: Now is not the time for thinking small, now is not the time for the same-old, same-old establishment politics and stale inside-the-Beltway ideas.
Bernie Sanders
It's absurd we remain the only major country on earth not to guarantee health care to all people and paid family and medical leave.
