"I salute the Senator from Vermont for the good job he has done in bringing this forward to the American people's attention. An overwhelming bipartisan majority in the House supports the $2,000 checks. Senate Democrats strongly support these $2000 checks." @SenSchumer

.@SenSchumer asks for unanimous consent on the CASH Act for $2000 checks. McConnell objects.

He did it. @BernieSanders brought the tweet and pointed at it.

"Nobody here will disagree with Trump more times than I have, and yet here is what the Leader of the Republican Party says. He says $2000 ASAP." @BernieSanders on the Senate floor

.@EdMarkey takes to the Senate Floor: "I rise to echo the sentiments of the Senator from Vermont. He is right. The Republicans are wrong on this issue on every single part of this debate. @SenSanders is right. The Republicans are wrong."

"At this time, there's a crisis of faith that the American people have in its government's ability to respond to human suffering. This institution has been created to respond to human suffering. That's our job." @EdMarkey showing everyone where he stands

.@EdMarkey asks for unanimous consent for a vote on the #CASHAct tomorrow at 12:30PM and then vote for NDAA.

Tell ya fatha to call their senator: 202-224-3121

"What is your problem with allowing the Senate to vote on whether or not we are going to allow Americans, working class people to get a $2,000 check?" @BernieSanders CALLS OUT @JohnCornyn

"If you listen carefully, you understood that my friend from Texas did not answer my question."

@BernieSanders begins to read tweets like this one below

"Senator Cornyn: You want to bring up corporate liability bring it up. You want to bring up section 230, bring it up, you want to bring up the man on the moon, bring it up... I ask again what is your problem with bringing that up as a single standalone bill?" BERNIE SANDERS

"Heard a lot of revisionist history this afternoon... because of our efforts, 13mil people were kept out of poverty, but then this Sen thought work was done for the year. In March the only [voted] amndmnt to the CARESAct was to take away the $600 UI" @SenSherrodBrown on the floor

"If they refuse to support this $2,000 per person. If they refuse to support this these direct payments, Leader McConnell and Senate Republicans will again, make it perfectly clear for the American people whose side their on." @SenSherrodBrown

"They had no problem pouring money in the corporate coffers with their tax cut and blowing up the deficit. I remember lobbyists lining down the hall looking for those tax cuts back 3yrs ago, and they got those tax cuts. They didn't say anything about gov deficit's back then"
