What we need is a "21st Century Full Employment Act for Peace and Prosperity" which would make it a mandatory requirement that the president and Congress attain and maintain full employment.

What needs to be done

This is my idea of what we need to unite the people around as we fight to impeach Trump and remove him from office:


First issue peace.


Second issue increase Minimum Wage and Social Security.


Third issue National Public Health Care System- publicly funded, publicly administered, publicly delivered.


Pay for what we need with a peace dividend and tax the hell out of millionaires and billionaires, corporate profits and tax on Wall Street transactions.


End racism and enforce Affirmative Action.


Create a National Child Care System.


Forgive student debt and make all education at public institutions free.


A new party and action in the streets is the way to win... it takes a struggle to win.


Keep it simple.
