Donald Trump preys off people feeling hopeless and being too scared to fight. I won't let Trump take away my hope or make me too afraid to stand tall and fight.
I continue to believe that if we fight for democracy we will win.

When foreigners gave smaller amounts of money to the Clinton Foundation before Hillary Clinton ran for president, the New York Times put the story on the front page.
This is a larger amount of money going directly into the pocket of the president-elect.

1. In April 2024, California raised the minimum wage for fast food chains to $20/hour
