Trump’s unilateral decision to impose a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico is most likely illegal and most definitely harmful.
Economists estimate that these will increase costs for the average American family by as much as $1,200 a year.
We need to drive prices DOWN, not UP.

And when the news conference ended after 36 minutes, the reporters, some with dazed expressions, filed out of the briefing room
As I navigated the crowd, I caught a glimpse of a fellow journalist’s phone and the text message he had just sent:

This is what we mean when we talk about corporate greed: Starbucks gave its CEO $96 million for just 4 months of work. Meanwhile, Starbucks is refusing to offer a raise of more than 50 cents an hour to 12,000 union workers.
That's unacceptable. Starbucks must end their greed.

Me trying to “fight like hell” and not get overwhelmed by how dangerous and angering it all is. All while being told “well you live in Indiana, so accept that most people voted for this so we can’t cut off everyone we don’t agree with. Or react and be mad about everything that is happening. “

A saying of Martin Luther King Jr. may be our guide this January 20:

We must keep the work alive with persistent action for equality and equity to all. Every. Single. Day.
