  • Environmental Justice: Climate Change Bill - Renewable Energy (More details soon!)
  • Criminal Justice and Immigrant Rights: H.R. 3227 - Justice is Not For Sale Act of 2017
Democrats in Congress must lay out a bold vision for how we create a country that works for everyone--not the just the very wealthy. In the wealthiest nation on earth, each and every American family should have the basic things they need to thrive. We’ll keep fighting until everyone has access to healthcare, free college tuition, a livable planet, and a job that pays a living wage.

Did you even read the list of items? How many of them are you against? How many for?

If you don't give a shit about how you're governed, you can't be upset when they don't give a shit about you.
bernie wants a 50 state public option and medicare for 55+. do you disagree with bernie?

I'm willing to bet that if we get the one, the other comes along. I'd support free tuition to trade schools as well.

i support trade schools over traditional college because its something that kids work for.. scholarships and what not. im believe if you want something you have to work for it. guess it was how i was raised.
you can say something like what if the kids cant afford it... student loans, theyll be in debt, but they get what they put into it. if you take a 50k loan to study an arts program or something thats on you.

If students want to study something that's valuable. If it's refrigeration tech or art history frankly matters less than the fact that a student wants to better themselves.

i disagree.. i dont see the point of spending someone elses money (tax.. maybe even parents) if i know what im studying wont help me contribute back into the economy. i can study art history on my own time with google
