Vote for Democrats

By Wayne Goldner - Bedford | Oct 3, 2020

I will be voting for the Democrats on Election Day because they believe that:

COVID-19 should be defeated with science and empathy.

Global climate change is our greatest existential threat and they will tackle it in a fiscally responsible way and create abundance of green job opportunities.

Health care is a human right and all people deserve coverage that is affordable and that will not bankrupt them with a major illness. That preexisting conditions should not be a deterrent to coverage.

All working people should earn a living wage and the minimum wage must be raised. That taxation should be equitable and just with the wealthy paying their fair share without any loopholes or tax shelters. Affordable housing is a right and food insecurity especially in children is wrong and immoral.

That Medicare and Social Security must be preserved and funded so our elderly and disabled can lead dignified lives.

Public education is a right and is the foundation of our civilization and must be supported by society.

All Americans regardless of skin color, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnicity, social and economic standing must be treated equally. There should be no discrimination in law enforcement and judgement, hiring, wages, schools, school admission or any other societal endeavor.

I am voting for the Democrats because they believe and care for ALL OF US.
