VP Harris tells teachers union she’s ‘fighting for the future,’ blasts Project 2025 • Oklahoma Voice
Vice President Kamala Harris outlined some of her “vision of the future” during the American Federation of Teachers national convention in Houston.
Yasss Kamala let's fucking gooo
Let's be real here.
We've had 40 years of Democratic and Republican rule, and we know exactly what they're fighting for. 2/3 of the US states still have a minimum wage tied to the federal, meaning in 2/3 of the US states you can be paid less than a Starbucks coffee for an hour of work.
Roe was repealed when Democrats had Congress and the presidency. All they did was use it to raise money, and have to date done nothing significant to try and win back our rights to our own bodies.
Most Americans are grappling with double the grocery bills and costs of living they had prior to 2020, and Dems response has been to ignore it and find another half trillion dollars for other countries' wars and child genocide in Israel.
These are the Democrats sitting by and letting cop cities happen, and remember, it was Biden who mocked the defund movement in his first SOTU.
They're not fighting for the future. They're fighting for the wealthy and to keep that sweet war money flowing, and they don't give a damn what happens to you.
Please stop spreading misinformation about how the government works. The supreme Court made abortion illegal. It doesn't matter who controls the white house and congress. And can we stop being so pessimistic for one moment? Kamala represents real generational change in the leadership of our government
They didn't make it illegal, they made it's illegallity enforceable.
It's not a super big difference, but if we're being pedantic about misinformation...
The supreme Court made abortion illegal.
I didn't say otherwise. I said Dems controlled the other two branches of government and did nothing to change that, and it's a factual statement.
Kamala represents real generational change
Yeah, I bought into that the first time they sold it to me back in 2008. All we got for it was a dead terrorist, legal torture, more expensive health care and... basically nothing else. And Obama had a supermajority for a while too.
The Democrats technically had control, but it's only with the consent of a few "Democrats" who didn't want to go through with protections. They didn't have enough control to actually pass legislation that Manchin at least didn't agree with.
You clearly don't really know what you're talking about and are just repeating things other people have said.
I don't see how someone with a Yale law degree is able to consider people making less than $50k a year when making economic decisions. Then we have people like Nancy Pelosi who is just there to enrich herself.
Agreed.
They probably haven't actually looked at their own bills in decades.
It feels so hopeless sometimes. Like, nothing will change until we can get some voting reform, but I have no idea how that's going to happen.
It would take a revolution to make meaningful positive change in this country.
