Feeding all our children.

Black lives Matter.

Decent affordable humane housing & shelter for all of our citizens.

Affordable health care is a Right for All that is top of the line and available from birth to death.

Sufficient paid Family leave for both parents when a newborn baby arrives. Parental support during the baby's first year of life is critical.

Science is valid.

Clean air and water free for All.

Climate change mitigation to ease suffering for all mankind.

Decent affordable education that extends through the entire educational life of a person however far they progress that actually teaches our children (and adults) HOW to think critically.

Voting is a RIGHT for all citizens and should be free from fear and assault by undemocratic parties seeking to destroy democracy.

The Right for other peoples to emigrate here from anywhere in the World and help make Our system more perfect BECAUSE of their diversity.

The freedom to worship as one's conscience determines, as long as it does not infringe on the rights of other's.

A fair tax system where everyone pays their share.

No Religion should be allowed to interfere in the Constitutional Rights given to All, or to throw monkey wrenches into the gears of governance.

The Right to organize and form Union's to protect and expand the Rights of Workers.

It's way past time we stop being scared of the labels they put on us, stop letting them demonize the sane socialist movement.

Social Security is Socialism.

The VA Hospital System is socialism.

Road and Highway maintenance programs are socialism.

Police and Fire Departments are funded through socialism.

Clean water is provided through socialism.

Want more?
