-Quality affordable childcare-limit cost to families at 10%
-Trump plan would give wealthy families 30-40 cents on the dollar for child care; Clinton wants to expand child tax credit, which is not related to the wealthy
-Wants to see minimum wage raised to stimulate spending
-Clinton to protect Social Security
-Wants comprehensive immigration reform to also stimulate economy
-Wants to strengthen unions as a means of better working conditions for Americans
-Defend and improve ACA, choice of a public option for health care

Who can bring people together to get any of this done?
-Leadership that rises above personal attacks and name calling; bullying is not the appropriate approach for us
-Examples of legislation, governmental roles, programs-will make full use of opportunities to strengthen America together using all Americans
-Overturn Citizens United
-Expand voting rights
-Working for an America that benefits all Americans not just Donald Trump and his friends
-"Trumpian" economics
