Former President Obama brings his calm and steady leadership style to us once again to remind us of our power:
“It is up to all of us to fix this. It's not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen—who says, no, that's not right.”

Please call your representatives and tell them to stop this nonsense!
