- Senator Elizabeth Warren spoke on the Senate floor on December 10, 2014 to call on the House of Representatives to remove from the government funding bill a reckless provision that would repeal important financial protections in Dodd-Frank.
Thank you Elizabeth Warren for working hard to keep Wall Street in check!
Ditto!!!!
This has to stop. WE have to stop this. I hate when they take something like a good bill and tack on something on the end to line their greedy pockets. Strike this bill down!
Amen!!!!!
This woman is amazing, and Americas best (if not only) hope on the horizon. I hope she can keep her integrity.
Amen and hallelujah!!!!
Not only is Sen. Warren good, Sen Sanders is even more so.
She has none, she's a progressive, which equates to a liar imo. They fooled you people into supporting obamacare and thought each and everyone of you as stupid. How do you throw all your support behind people like that, is the koolaid really that strong?
Mark W None what, nincompoop. Take your fascists crap somewhere else.
Mark W I love the kool aid jokes...it all the pubs have, and they use it all the time. I'm always amazed how the kochs and their right wing cronies can screw these people until they can't feel it anymore. Very forgiving lot....short memories however.
Just saw Elizabeth on the Rachel Maddow Show and she explained this so well.Looks like the Repugs can't go for a week without looking out for themselves instead of he American People. Makes me want to SCREAM !!
Meeeeeeeeeeeeeee, too!!!
yeah cause the democrats in office have been sooo beneficial to this country...
Thank you, Senator Warren. Now they can't say that they didn't know. They can't say that they didn't understand.
Please please please run for President
Very empassioned speech.
Here we go again!! Thank you keep up the good job.
Thank you Senator Warren!
Only hope the Dems support your thoughts and do not sign this bill! Dr Tessa Warschaw
Thank you so much for fighting for ALL Americans!!!!
It is so incredible and amazing, and it gives me hope to realize that there really ARE some good politicians!
Thank you Elizabeth Warren for fighting to stop the repeal of financial protections in Dodd-Frank.
The way our democracy works is that it does not matter what the majority wants the politicians do what they want. I hope we wake up and pay attention to who we are voting for.
Thank you Senator Warren
Magnificent!
Bravo!
This woman is America's hope
From the UK I'd like to say thank you to Sen. Warren. Thank you for demonstrating there is some sanity in Washington, All to often it seems the lunatics have taken over and sane voices as yours are drowned out. Your voice and the voice of hopefully more like you needs to rise above a babel. Best of luck and keep fighting.
Senator Warren you are what a Senator should be. You are and inspiration and a gift. You carry the banner for Mass. and for us all. You and Rachel Maddow may be the only voices we have in this country. So Keep it Coming I am considering moving to Mass. just to be represented. XOXOXOXO
I'd love her for president, but I believe that she is doing more good in the Senate, where the real power is.
Hitting the Nail on the head. Just ask the President!!
Thank you Senator Warren for working for the majority of the American, and not the top 1%. Families can't afford to back up the bank industry, when some are working 2 or 3 jobs just to put food on the table for their families, and they are hoping for a minimum wage to be passed, which of course the Republicans defeated. I'm afraid that the next two years will be very difficult with the majority doing every thing they can for the 1% and forget everyone else The one bright spot is that you and a few others have the courage to do what is right. Thank You again Senator we need you.
Stop this bill I don't want to pay for the big banks mistakes, I am a senior, enough is enough. This is not a budget I would vote for, shut down the damn government this is bull shit. What about us the little people?
Thank you for standing up for us, the little guys. Simply, Thank you :'( It brings me to tears to hear you, PASSIONATELY, with conviction, fight for us, for our Founding Fathers' America O:)
Please let congress know that the people are not happy with this provision in the Funding Bill to repeal a part of the Dodd-Frank Provision.
powerful speech, I salute you for caring about the people over money and power.
Don't pass this bill!
So personal held stocks are not insurable but risky bank derivatives are if you're a bank? How can Republicans be okay with this? That's not fair to private investors! Either all should be insurable, or none should be! And we all know that none should be!
I would vote for this woman.
this is suppose to be a REPULIC not a democracy. WAKE UP FOLKS
There will be no change until we are stuck paying for this. Good job Elizabeth.
Alas, only one possible vote for the people in SC delegation... plea for Congressman Clyburn to oppose the budget bill until this provision is stripped out... and we know from Barney Frank that such an action is totally possible without shutting down the government.
I agree that this is and has not been a government for the people in a long time, it is good to hear that someone seems to have the best interest of the people in mind , but as you can see even the people with the best intentions have fallen victim
I don't understand why so many people agree with her, but doesn't do anything.. She Is awesome, and together you people could change YOUR country by tomorrow.. Litterrly, by tomorrow..
Obviously Sen. Warrens outcries about political mischief falls on deaf ears. Both parties have shown the American people they couldn't care less. Yet, we re=elect these people and believe all the bull they sling during their campaign. It's kinda sad.
Funny how they ram this bill through just as oil is tanking. Hmm wonder why?
Sen.Elizabeth is AWESOME !!!!....I Soooo
Is there no way to know who put those nasty provision on the bank risk taking give away and on the big money support on politics? Can we have a name or names on the major proponents (public officials) on these two controversial issues? There ought to be accountability!
Would love to get my hands on the transcript of this speech.
Great great critique of this....terrible legislation.......
to the powerful lobbyist . Voters need to take their voting more seriously and fire all of the folks in office now and start all over . We just can not seem to do that. I say do it until we stop paying for people who are not thinking of us and only of their pockets. it was never suppose to be a job, it was to be in SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE.
why is the potus pushing this???
What a welcome voice Sen. Warren has become in Congress. I hope she is able to move other elected officials to understand and move effectively to improve, not dismantle, economic safeguards.
Give them HELL!! Elizabeth, Obama are you listening, I hope so.
Thank you Senator Warren for trying to govern with integrity and agency.
Your interview with Rachel Maddow was very informative to me as a Democrat voter. I had no idea of the last minute tactics of the Republicans to slip in language to keep banks losing money so us tax payers are burdened with their bank losses. Please don't let this bill pass without removing the last minute addition. I'm 78 years old and barely have enough money to meet my monthly obligations. May God bless you.
On tonights's Rachel S Warren asked us to go to her site and show our support for her opposition of the budget if the attempts to gut Dodd-Frank are left in. I don't see how to do that on this site.
she has a facebook page facebook.com/senatorelizabethwarren
Like and share, email, let other people see this issue, who will also spread the word. Then, let your own representatives know how you feel about this issue (your senators and congressional rep).
I'm trying to do it too, and didn't see anyplace onn her FB page either.
I would access your representatives office and give your opinion there, or call. I do.
Please run for president!!!!
Love Elizabeth Warren.
Really, after listening to her, there are people who actually clicked the dislike button!
strike repeal of dodd;frank provision in the funding bill
I HOPE this woman runs for president.
Elizabeth run for president. We need a real leader and you are it.... JUST DO IT. The American people will stand behind you and we can finally get this country on the right track again. get rid of subsidies, all lobbyist's in DC, and get congress and the house to do their jobs with absolutely no out side influence PERIOD.
Elizabeth Warren Is so smart and explains thing so well,I am glad that she is on ourside. So Every one take it out or VOTE NO
Way to go Elizabeth Warren. It just makes me ill to learn about the lengths these greedy people will go to to ensure they make more and more money.
Thank You Senator Elizabeth Warren for sticking up for the little guy who is not being considered by these tactics of the newly elected majority. Is this their method of governance and an example of what is to come?
By all means I would ask that you use all that is in you to help stop these actions by the newly elected majority.
Thanks,
Stephen Martin
Elizabeth Warren for President! This country needs gutsy leaders who are passionate about the welfare of the people. She inspires and impresses with her intellect and passion.
When can she run for President? I would vote for her hands down.
I would like to say that I am shocked by this bill for big money banks, but I am NOT. It is just one more reason why I changed my affiliation from R to D. Elizabeth, as soon as you run for President, I will not only vote for you but actively work for your election.
Is this usaul modus operandi of the US Congress? The legislature of the biggest economy in the world. What kind of preference do our lawmakers have? Is congress really hiostage takers! Thak you Sen. Warren! God bless!
Now that she is in the Democratic leadership, she's too busy to be able to run for President in 2016.
I'm disappointed . . . but she's so valuable in the Senate that I'm happy too.
Dear Senator Warren, I would really like to know what the Republican Congress thinks,what is worse? Greed or Fraud. And why they continue to choose only the two alternatives when drafting any legislation that involves the common good for all people.I"m extremely proud to have you representing the common interest of all god fearing people. Who respects democracy at its best.
"Prohibition Against Federal Government Bailouts of Swaps Entities"...nice title !!
I love this woman - she's like the head mistress telling off the naughty boys to behave and grow a conscience and discover the meaning of ethics and morals.
The taxpayers should not be, metaphorically, insuring wealthy casino gamblers for their losses. It makes no sense.
STOP THE BUDGET !
ALL CONGRESS PEOPLE JOIN ELIZABETH !
Glad they are not all bad, This is the kind of leading we need. Government for the people, if the company is going to go out of business for bad business decisions then let it. A better run company will take its place. You want to gamble? Then gamble on your own dime, most people are living paycheck to paycheck and the absolute rich are crying the most. Pay your taxes and get on with your life, just like the shrinking middle class people do. We don't want to walk over the poor for more money in our pockets! It is like the more money you have the more you cry about "my money" Who needs more than 10 million for the rest of their lives to be happy? I think you missed your turn and need to rethink your life strategy.
These money grubbing billionaires should not be leading us. They are 100% out of touch with what is best for anyone, including themselves. Government Officials are doing their bidding hoping for scraps from the dinner table. I am happy to see this woman has some backbone and integrity enough to do her job.
Thank you Senator Warren.
Warren for Queen of America! God save our Queen!
love her. Stand strong Senator..because you may be the only one to stand up for the taxpayers..who incidentally would be on the hook for another bail out. Where's the tea party now?
It will be really hard for most people to respond to their representatives about what side they are on! Too many double negatives in the title of the issue! The issue is really: Should the government bail out banks when their investments are risky and too complicated for most people to understand? Yes or no? Or, Should the government in insure bank investments that risky and hard to understand in the same way as traditional kinds of investments? Making an issue difficult to understand is a way to keep what Congress is doing secret, which is what the 1% apparently wants. Lobbyiests worded the amendment, right?
I just can't take her seriously because she is a millionaire. So her speech is rather ironic don't you think?
Thank for putting closed caption. I tried to view your video on another website { huffingtonpost.com} but this youtube video work well with closed caption. I subscribed this now.
Warren in 2016
She is right, and she brings to the forefront, everything that is on most of America's minds, in essence,, she speaks for a lot of us, and she's in the right place to do it.
Indeed!!!!!
I for one bet that Dems and Reps both are voting for this. Reinstate Glass Steagal Liz if you are serious.
Thank you Elizabeth Warren for standing up for the working people in America.
"...closed-door budget deal that slips..."? It's there in writing for all of us to read and for you to vote up or down. You don't have to vote for this bill to know what's in it. You should be more upset that it's a $1T+ spending bill.
Are you ready for another downfall of our financial system? PLEASE ask all people who work hard and live a decent life not to fall again for this. There is NO EXCUSE to even think of re-living again another collapse of our banking and financial systems. We all lived it, we all suffered the consequences, This is the time to say NO. The House and the Senate own this to us who voted for them. At least this time don't fail us.
I agree with you that we the people of the USA must not provide insurance for big banks gambling with risky investments. We had to bail them out once and we don't want to ever do that again.
She has been walking the walk for a long time, I have nothing but respect for this person, and agree with her whole heartedly. They have and will continue to throw everything they have at her, it says a lot that the people of her state sent her back to Washington.
I'm with you Elizabeth
Powerful. Thank you Senator Warren. You rock.
She gives me hope for politicians.
Imagine if there were two E. Warrens
I'll sum up my feelings in 3 words. I love you.
I totally agree with and support the call from this honest Senator
She js right don't wote for the bill.
please dont vote for this bill
Please continue fighting this "ransom" bill! How could have White House agreed! Where is your priority Mr. President? Sen. Warren, we are with you!
To show support & protect at least some of Dodd-Frank go to elizabethwarren.com the petition is there to sign.
She is a courageous truth teller with personal integrity. You know what happens to truth tellers in Washington. After watching the near collapse of our economy and the world economy brought on by reckless greed, I fear the American sheeple are still asleep. God alone knows what it will take to open their eyes to the judgement that continues to come on our nation.
