AOC: Some of the Republicans whose districts we visited just warned their leadership that they’re not sure they can vote for Medicaid cuts now. We’ve got them on their back foot. But our job is not done. We will rally every corner of the U.S. We will not stop until they actually vote no.

Sanders: We are seeing unbelievable turnout. We were in Idaho — Idaho! — and 12,000 people showed up. We had 20,000 in Salt Lake City. I think what the American people — Republicans, Independents, and Democrats — are saying is: Sorry, Mr. Trump, we don’t want your oligarchy.

Sanders: What the ruling class of this country does… is essentially tell you that you are powerless. They say, ‘Ain’t nothing you can do — because we, the oligarchs, got all the money, we own the Congress’ Well, we’re here this evening to tell them: hey guys, you got it wrong.

AOC: Only 2% of people on Medicaid are able-bodied.. I saw Mike Johnson saying we have to stop all the able-bodied men from being on Medicaid — as if it’s a crime for someone to have healthcare in America. Healthcare is a human right, and everyone should have it.
