It is not good enough to say, "Well, hey, I vote every two years. I vote every four years." That's fine, but that is not good enough.

I intend to introduce legislation that will make police accountable for their actions and limit uses of force in cases where it is unnecessary.

I believe, along with Pope Francis and almost all scientists, that climate change is threatening this planet in horrendous ways, and that we have to be aggressive in transforming our energy system away from fossil fuel and defeat the Keystone Pipeline.

You can't become a billionaire stepping over children sleeping on the street.

In my view, it is not a question of Trump having won the election, it's a question of Democrats having lost the election. Democrats need a strong progressive agenda which says to the working class of this country, we are going the stand and fight for you, we're going to raise the minimum wage, pay equity for women, we're going to rebuild the infrastructure, and we're going to guarantee health care to all people as a right. We're going to make public colleges and universities tuition-free.

We live in a country where a small number of people have incredible wealth and power. America has more income and wealth inequality than any other major country.

Fifty years ago, great schools like the University of California and the City University of New York - as well as many state colleges - were tuition free. Today college is unaffordable for many working class families. For the sake of our economy and millions of Americans, we must make higher education more affordable.
