I am proud of the campaign that we ran. Obviously, I wish we could have done a little bit better.

In America, we have lost millions of decent-paying jobs. That has got to end.

We cannot go back to a racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic type of society.

Republicans drove us into debt with two wars and the Bush tax cuts. Now they want to pay for that debt with cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. This is not only immoral it is bad economics. Why do Republicans always have money for war but not for those in need?

Every person in America will know what Donald Trump said and what he is doing.

The decision is I'm going to do everything I can to fight for the working class of this country, the low-income people against income and wealth inequality, do everything we can about climate change.

In any democratic, civilized - even non-democratic nations, if you are a nation, it means to say that in our case, if there's a hurricane in Louisiana, the people of Vermont are there for them. If there's a tornado in the Midwest, we are there for them. If there's flooding in the East Coast, the people in California are there for us.
