Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Millions of Americans remain at jobs they hate for one reason: the health insurance they receive. That’s absurd.
Universal health care will give Americans the freedom to choose the work they want without worrying about health care coverage.
Another reason for Medicare for All.

Please make sure every military member you know knows this.
Trump’s promise Wednesday to pay troops a “warrior dividend” bonus is actually a military housing stipend already approved by Congress, and not a generous new White House program.
Trump claims credit for military bonus that Congress already approved
The White House’s plans for a “warrior dividend” to reward troops this holiday season are actually housing assistance funds approved this summer.

Trump and Republicans claim they want to "protect children."
But they've rolled back child labor laws and environmental protections, blocked gun safety reform, and spread lies about vaccines that save children from deadly diseases.

Everyone knows that our current health care system is broken.
That’s why over 60% of the American people support Medicare for All.
The day will come when every man, woman and child in this country will have health care as a human right.
We’re going to win this fight.

US Citizen detained by ICE: Clearly it didn't matter that I was a citizen, a veteran, or identified who I was. They ignored everything I said. They just broke my window and dragged me out. I let them know I was a veteran, I wasn't doing anything wrong, just trying to get to work.

Trump has quietly gutted enforcement of the corporate alternative minimum tax — a boon for big corporations.
His Big Ugly Bill, which slashed Medicaid and SNAP, also gave corporations $16B in new depreciation tax breaks this year.
A windfall for the wealthy at your expense.

Most young people are worried, as they should be, about the impact that AI will have on their lives and their ability to earn a decent living.
Our job is not complicated. We must make certain that AI and robotics improve life for all, and not just make billionaires even richer.

We now have an unprecedented level of income & wealth inequality.
It isn’t acceptable that the top 1% owns more wealth than the bottom 93%, while a majority of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
We must stand together & create an economy that works for all, not just the few.
