Statement

The future is found in our kids, the present is up to us. For years we’ve had no choice for our representatives.  We’ve seen the same faces and ideas.  They’ve said:  If the rich get richer so will we – this hasn’t happened.  If we elect the same people things will continue as they have.

We need youth programs that teach skills.  We deserve universal health care.  Education, college or vocational school, should be based on ability and need, not money.  Science and ability to Compromise are required.  Investment in our future is the way to transform our home.
