These are the people that progressives are fighting for. It's for these people's lives and livelihoods that they must hold the line! This is who we all should be fighting for in this moment. We cannot have one bill without the other.

As the civil rights leaders of the 1960s so well understood, we cannot secure a bright economic future for all when so many of our people cannot exercise their most basic democratic right b/c immoral forces still try to deny & abridge the right to vote.https://progressive.org/magazine/moral-movement-barber-theoharis-jackson-anderson/ …

“As we reflect on Jackson’s lifelong service for civil rights and human rights, people of color everywhere are grateful to the legacy of his steadfast, faithful, continuous work.” Happy 80th birthday on today to my friend, elder & mentor

Great interview with
@ESGlaude by@KBDPHD for the#DisruptedCT show@WNPR. Here’s just a short excerpt: “One of the beautiful things I love about@RevDrBarber is that he has these gatherings, and he speaks ... but he steps back and he puts forward everyday ordinary people.”pic.twitter.com/5zNJSycLvMThanks.

I’m just returning from the Vatican. Now that I’m back, can we set a time to meet w/ a delegation in D.C. by Wed. of next week? We will have 5 poor low-wage workers, a leading economist, 2 religious leaders incl a nun in our delegation. Waiting to hear from you, Bishop Barber

Our criticism of your current positions are strident and strong, because scripture and the Spirit of justice requires them to be. We want to see you on the right side of God and the Constitution. Both require that we know budgets are moral documents.

We sent this to
@Sen_JoeManchin today. Let’s see how he responds: Sen. Manchin, I write you in the spirit of love and truth and on behalf of the@WestVirginiaPPC. I’m formally requesting next week the meeting you said in the Associated Press that you were open to.Show this threadThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
The $3.7 trillion is not a “give away.” It’s an investment and will bring great dividends to the GDP—Gross Development Possibilities of the people, especially the low-wage earning, working people of our nation!

Stop talking about $3.7 trillion or $2 trillion. $3.7T over 10 years is not a large number at all. What is huge is the number of Americans who will be hurt even more after being devastated already by COVID.

And how much time does Manchin want? How about as much time as it took for him to block living wages—about five minutes? I wish reporters would push him and expose the faces and livelihoods that would be hurt by his cuts.

Manchin is so slick, he is silly. Paying people a living wage, providing health care, education, and childcare for working low-wage mothers is not “entitlement.” It’s justice. It’s promoting the general welfare. It’s acting like Jesus. https://mobile.twitter.com/knightopia/status/1446282521726046208?s=20 …https://twitter.com/knightopia/status/1446282521726046208 …

Wow, just now seeing this video of @Sen_JoeManchin, a devout Catholic, getting SO MANY things wrong. First, as a Christian, the only “hope of the world” I profess is Jesus Christ—not the United States. (cont.) pic.twitter.com/jDr1OlgmgbShow this threadShow this threadThanks.

“Systemic poverty is not the cumulative result of individual failures. People in power have made choices & written those choices into tax policy, war policy, & government budgets.”

This is a moral spiral towards death. It is morally indefensible, constitutionally inconsistent, and economically insane. In other words, we're sowing our own destruction. And part of the role of the Church is to offer a way out.https://www.ncronline.org/news/justice/american-anti-poverty-crusader-finds-ally-pope-francis-vatican …

There are more than 1 billion people living in extreme poverty, 140 million of whom are in the United States, and another 8 million people fell into poverty during the pandemic, while more than 80% of COVID relief went to corporations and billionaires made nearly $2 trillion.
