I may not always agree with @BernieSanders but this is @BernieSanders at his very best. You go, my friend! 👋👋👋

.@BernieSanders ON FIRE on the Senate floor: "And now I find that some of my Republican colleagues are very distressed they're very upset that somebody is making $10-$12 bucks an hour might end up with a paycheck for four months more than they received last week...

Replying to @HeidiHeitkamp
That’s why I voted for Justice Gorsuch, and that’s why I’m voting no on Judge Kavanaugh. You’ll probably hear a lot from the outside groups & special interests, but I want you to hear directly from me:

Voting on a Supreme Court Nominee is one of the most important decisions a senator makes. Every day, I wake up thinking about what's best for North Dakota — and since I was elected to the Senate, I’ve been an independent voice for North Dakota.

10 years ago the largest newspaper in ND ran this headline 9 days before the election. We know how that turned out. NEVER GIVE UP! I’m working hard these next 9 days for @TimRyan @CheriBeasleyNC @valdemings and all our incredible candidates. We can do this.

Know why @KamalaHarris is so good at giving a speech to an empty room? Senate experience. #DNCConvention #YouGoGirl

NDans sent me to the Senate to do the job. While I want nothing more than to be with you in ND, duty calls. Unfortunately, I’ll need to be in the Senate to vote on Friday, so our first debate will be rescheduled for the near future.

I'm endorsing @JoeBiden because he understands the America that showers after work. He knows personally what happens when families can't pay the grocery bill. He'll keep his commitments to our farmers & ranchers. And he'll restore empathy for others to the White House. #JoeMentum

The doctors said I had a 28% chance of surviving 10 years when I was diagnosed with breast cancer 18 years ago. I haven’t spent a moment worrying about odds since. Yesterday, I was honored to receive a pink sheriff’s star from Grand Forks Sheriff Bob Rost. Now get out & vote!

This huge pile of unsold soybeans in Casselton is what the trade war looks like. Our farmers can’t sell their beans & it’s hurting our economy. But @kevincramer doesn’t care — he’s committed to voting with his political party 100% of the time rather than standing up for ND.

.@kevincramer can’t stop lying about my record, but here’s the truth: in the Senate, I’ve been an independent voice for ND — working across the aisle to crack down on human trafficking, grow our energy economy & protect health care. And Kevin, I’m just getting warmed up.

It’s my birthday today! And though I really, really wanted cake on my first birthday, this year I’d love it if you voted early. Early voting is open in Burleigh, Cass, Grand Forks, Morton, Stark, Stutsman and Ward counties. Your early vote is the best gift you could give me!

I’d like to thank my family and the thousands of NDans whose prayers and encouragement has kept me going every single day. Serving ND in the Senate has been the highest honor of my life — because every day when I wake up, I’m thinking about how I can fight for rural America.
