  • I’m grateful to be home for the holidays with my family. Hope you all are spending quality time with loved ones.

  • While we celebrate the holidays with our loved ones, children and families will be shivering in the cold on America's doorstep. Our nation is big enough to provide refuge for those fleeing desperation.
  • My criminal justice plan calls for closing private prisons and paying fair wages to incarcerated individuals. A concern for people, not profits, should govern our criminal justice policy.

  • We started this campaign from scratch. But more and more people, and especially young people, are finding our campaign. We’ll keep fighting for an America that puts people first.
