Keynote Address by Senator Bernie Sanders at Center for International Policy's 2024 Conference on February 6, 2024 at the National Press Club in Washington DC.
"We are living in a moment where political change is going to come to the United States and many countries around the world. The question is: what kind of change will that be? Will the United States and countries throughout the world move in the direction of more war and violence, more hatred and bigotry, more authoritarianism, and more oligarchy? Or will we, in our country and around the world, choose another path?"

Senator Sanders: We cannot be complicit in current approach of Israeli government
Dec 4, 2023
No, I do not think we should be appropriating $10.1 billion for the right-wing, extremist Netanyahu government to continue its current military approach. What the Netanyahu government is doing is immoral, it is in violation of international law, and the United States should not be complicit in those actions.
