Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies.
In Denmark:
- Health care and college are free.
- The starting wage is $22/hr.
- Paid parental leave is 1 year.
- Paid vacation is 6 weeks.
- All workers get pensions.

The stopgap funding bill we’re voting on this week would create a taxpayer funded slush fund for Elon Musk and President Trump. I joined CNN this morning to talk about what this means for our communities.

Musk and Trump are working feverishly to cut Social Security, Medicaid, the VA, public education, nutrition and other programs.
Why? So Musk and other billionaires can get a huge tax break.
Together, we’re not going to let them get away with that.
