From facebook - "Keep this list handy so that when someone asks what he's done for us lately, you've got your answer ready."
You dont have to like Bernie Sanderss ideas. I get it. Hes a Democratic Socialist, a progressive, and some folks dont like that. However, you can't say he doesn't have any accomplishments. Here are 28 of them, just to name a few.
...
~Sanders introduces legislation to break up major Wall Street banks so large that the collapse of one could send the overall economy into a downward spiral.
~A bipartisan $16.5 billion veterans bill written by Sanders, Sen. John McCain and Rep. Jeff Miller is signed into law by President Barack Obama.
~In 2015, Sanders takes over as ranking member of the Senate Budget Committee, using the platform to fight for his economic agenda for the American middle class.
~Sanders votes against the Keystone XL pipeline which would allow multinational corporation TransCanada to transport dirty tar sands oil from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico.
