My hope for America and the activists is that they never, ever go back to sleep, and they keep fighting for social justice, equality, and decency.

My role is to remind people that everyday people can make a difference. And if we get people out there doing things to make America a better place, we can bring change.

I would love to see more investment to help our veterans. Donald Trump is talking about investing in the military - I imagine he wants to invest on the war side, but what we really need is to take care of our veterans, and invest in the VA hospitals, provide better mental health treatment, and help them find housing. That is a stain on America for all of us - Republican and Democrat.

I'm always amazed to hear my more conservative colleagues talking about how they care about life. They're pro-life, but when it comes down to safe work environments that allow for unions, being able to pay for child care, having family leave - they don't care about any of that. That's where I argue that they're not pro-life, they're pro-birth.

The better a work environment is, the better it is for the employer - not just the employee.

We are going to have to do some real soul searching as a country and try to bring America together, because it is divided.

In America, the 1 percent and the 10 percent are doing just fine, but the people who are bearing the brunt of this economy are the ones who suffer.
