A message from Bernie

 “So brothers and sisters, that’s where we’re at.  We are at a pivotal moment in American history.  And what we are talking about is something pretty simple.  The status quo.  The current economy.  The current political system which is dominated by billionaires.  It is working very well for the people on top.  They love the status quo.  And they’re going to do everything they can to protect the status quo.  And our job is the very opposite.  What they have nightmares about is that workers stand up and fight back for a nation that works for all of us.  That is their nightmare.  And our job is to make sure that that nightmare takes place.”


Bernie Sanders, UAW CAP conference 1/22/2024
