As for policy, We need to tax the ultra-wealthy, implement Medicare for all, provide family leave and child care, protect our environment, invest in our children's education, abolish ICE, help our veterans, house the homeless, feed the hungry, support unions and working-class people, invest in renewable energy and adopt sensible international trade and ag policies. 2026 will be the year of the people.
