We spend $740 billion on the Pentagon, but somehow we don't have enough money to provide health care, housing and childcare to all Americans. My amendment to cut the defense budget by 10% would begin to change our priorities. It will be voted on in the Senate the week of July 20.

As a nation, we can never forget the sacrifices of those who died with honor to preserve our freedoms.

Today, as always in our Nation's history, the future of American freedom rests on the shoulders of those willing to defend it.

The minimum wage is worth less than it was 50 years ago. If wages had gone up with productivity, today it would be three times higher. Corporate America has been waging a war on workers for decades. It's about time working people stand up and fight back.

We need to stop bipartisan support for a bloated military budget. While defense contractors make huge profits and we spend more on the military than the next 11 nations combined, doctors and nurses lack masks to help us fight COVID-19. Insane priorities.

The American story is filled with men and women who went above and beyond the call of duty—whose lives were spent in defense of the liberties we hold dear.
