A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Today we celebrate the workers who keep our communities running.
But honoring workers means making sure people are paid a living wage, have safe workplaces, paid leave, and the freedom to organize.
Workers are the backbone of this country, and they deserve nothing less. ✊🏽

Political parties have control over the terms of primary elections.
The DNC has the power to ban Super PAC spending.
If Democrats really want to become the party of working people and fight the forces that brought us Trump, they must disavow Big Money.
