I'm an organizer, I'm a community activist, I try to help my neighbors, that's what I do, that’s what gives me joy in life. So I'm taking action and I’m running because I don't want my friends and neighbors to go through the same struggles and injustices I’ve experienced.
Coming out of the Great Depression, we enacted a New Deal to put regular people back to work rebuilding our nation and ushered in an unprecedented era of American prosperity. A lot has changed since then, however.
It’s time for another New Deal to transform our economy, combat climate change, and establish meaningful and lasting economic, social, educational, and healthcare justice. We can do all that in a way that lifts all boats and leaves no one behind.
