The only way change happens is when people become more significantly involved in the political process.

During the last two years the wealthiest 14 Americans saw their wealth increase by $157 billion. This is truly unbelievable. This $157 billion INCREASE in wealth among 14 individuals is more wealth that is owned, collectively, by 130 million Americans. This country does not survive morally, economically or politically when so few have so much, and so many have so little.

A job should lift workers out of poverty, not keep them in it.

A woman has the right to make decisions regarding her own body, not the United States government.

I am a fierce supporter of Planned Parenthood, NARAL, and gay rights in this country.
