We have many poor people too.

Say it: POOR, POVERTY

Democrats didn't used to be so afraid
of standing up for everyone.

Remember LBJ and the War on Poverty?

Back in the 80"s the Republicans managed to
make poverty a bete noir, and the media helped.

Ever since, Democrats have shied away from
talking specifically about poverty.

I’m loving it, and I’m using it for my Indivisible group’s next Call to Action email.

But there’s a whole new week ahead, so for all I know, there may be an even better one to come. But at the moment, I can’t imagine anything better or more to the point.

Ain't life funny.
