Los sistemas están rotos por diseño. Estamos aquí para construir algo nuevo, políticas que pongan a las personas sobre las ganancias, la dignidad sobre los dólares.
"La atención médica es un derecho humano, no un privilegio para quienes pueden pagarla."
Every year, 45,000 Americans die because they can't afford healthcare. Millions more ration insulin, skip medications, and avoid the doctor because they can't pay. This is not a healthcare system, it's a death sentence for the working class.
Insurance companies make billions while denying coverage to sick people. Pharmaceutical executives get rich while families go bankrupt buying life-saving medications. Hospital administrators earn seven figures while nurses are overworked and underpaid.
Apoyamos la Ley Medicare para Todos de 2025 (H.R. 3069 / S. 1129), presentada por la Rep. Pramila Jayapal, la Rep. Debbie Dingell y el Sen. Bernie Sanders con más de 100 copatrocinadores. Esta legislación histórica garantizaría atención médica universal a todos los estadounidenses:
"The American people understand, as I do, that health care is a human right, not a privilege and that we must end the international embarrassment of the United States being the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care to all people." - Sen. Bernie Sanders
"No human being is illegal. Abolish the agency that terrorizes our communities."
ICE, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, was created in 2003 as part of the post-9/11 security apparatus. In the two decades since, it has become a rogue agency that operates with virtually no accountability, tearing families apart, caging children, and conducting raids that terrorize entire communities.
ICE has separated thousands of children from their parents. It has detained people in facilities where they have died from medical neglect. It has deported veterans who served this country. It has created a climate of fear that prevents immigrants from reporting crimes, seeking healthcare, or sending their children to school. This agency cannot be reformed. It must be abolished.
We support the Abolish ICE Act (H.R. 7123), introduced by Rep. Shri Thanedar, which would dissolve ICE within 90 days and end its current enforcement authority. We also support the New Way Forward Act, which would fundamentally reform immigration enforcement by:
"Since ICE's establishment in 2003, they've prioritized aggressive enforcement and violence rather than due process. ICE is out of control and beyond reform. We must fundamentally change the way we approach immigration." - Rep. Shri Thanedar
"The labor movement built this country. It's time to rebuild the labor movement."
For decades, corporations have waged war on workers. They've busted unions, shipped jobs overseas, and replaced good wages with gig economy exploitation. CEO pay has skyrocketed while workers' wages have flatlined. This is not an accident, it's policy.
We believe in the power of organized labor. When workers stand together, they can demand dignity, fair wages, and safe working conditions. Every worker deserves a union, and every union deserves the power to fight back.
We support the Richard L. Trumka Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act (H.R. 20 / S. 852), introduced by Rep. Bobby Scott and Sen. Bernie Sanders, and the Raise the Wage Act of 2025 (S. 1332), which would raise the federal minimum wage to $17 by 2030 and benefit 22 million workers.
"The $7.25 an hour minimum wage is a starvation wage. It must be raised to a living wage. In the year 2025, a job should lift you out of poverty, not keep you in it." - Sen. Bernie Sanders
"¿Por qué pagamos por la atención médica israelí mientras los estadounidenses mueren racionando insulina?"
Cada año, los contribuyentes estadounidenses envían $3.8 mil millones a Israel, una nación rica con atención médica universal, educación universitaria gratuita y un nivel de vida más alto que muchas comunidades estadounidenses. Los ciudadanos israelíes disfrutan de atención médica financiada por el gobierno desde el nacimiento. Sus estudiantes se gradúan sin deudas. Mientras tanto, los estadounidenses se declaran en bancarrota por facturas médicas, se ahogan en deudas estudiantiles y ven cómo su infraestructura se desmorona.
¿Y qué obtenemos por nuestros $3.8 mil millones? Bombas que matan niños en Gaza. Nuestros impuestos financiaron la destrucción de hospitales, escuelas y campos de refugiados. Decenas de miles de civiles muertos. Esto no es ayuda exterior. Es dinero estadounidense financiando un genocidio mientras los políticos comprados por AIPAC miran hacia otro lado.
AIPAC, el Comité de Asuntos Públicos Estadounidense-Israelí, gasta más de $100 millones en cada ciclo electoral para comprar políticos estadounidenses. No se registran como agente extranjero. Atacan a cualquier político que cuestione el apoyo incondicional a Israel. Mi oponente, Sarah Elfreth, ha aceptado su dinero. Yo nunca lo haré.
Los gobiernos extranjeros y sus brazos de cabildeo no deberían estar escribiendo la política exterior estadounidense. Punto.
"Cada dólar que enviamos al extranjero para financiar la atención médica de otros, las escuelas de otros, el ejército de otros, es un dólar que no gastamos en estadounidenses. Es hora de poner a nuestra propia gente primero."
"La justicia climática y la justicia económica son inseparables."
La crisis climática es la amenaza existencial de nuestro tiempo. Tenemos menos de una década para reducir drásticamente las emisiones o enfrentar daños catastróficos e irreversibles. Pero esta crisis también es una oportunidad: para reconstruir nuestra economía, crear millones de buenos empleos y finalmente entregar justicia a las comunidades que han sido envenenadas y explotadas durante generaciones.
La industria de combustibles fósiles ha sabido sobre el cambio climático durante 50 años y eligió las ganancias sobre el planeta. Es hora de responsabilizarlos y construir una nueva economía que funcione para los trabajadores y la Tierra.
Apoyamos la Resolución del Nuevo Pacto Verde (H.Res. 109), presentada por la Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez y el Sen. Ed Markey, junto con la Ley del Nuevo Pacto Verde para Vivienda Pública (H.R. 2104) y el Cuerpo Civil Climático para poner a los estadounidenses a trabajar combatiendo el cambio climático.
"Podemos elegir ser la generación que confronta el cambio climático y construye una economía justa y sostenible. O podemos ser la generación que miró hacia otro lado mientras el planeta ardía. Yo elijo luchar." - Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
"Reproductive freedom is non-negotiable. Full stop."
The Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade was an assault on bodily autonomy and human dignity. Across the country, women are being forced to carry pregnancies against their will, denied life-saving medical care, and criminalized for making decisions about their own bodies. This is not freedom; it's state-enforced control.
Abortion is healthcare. It is a decision that belongs to the individual, not politicians, not judges, and certainly not the government. We must codify the right to abortion into federal law and ensure that every person has access to the full range of reproductive healthcare, regardless of where they live or how much money they have.
We support the Women's Health Protection Act of 2025 (H.R. 12 / S. 2150), which would establish a federal statutory right to abortion care, overriding state bans and restrictions. This legislation has over 200 cosponsors in Congress.
"The government has no place in our doctor's offices or our private medical decisions. Bodily autonomy is a fundamental human right, and we will fight to protect it."
"Education is a right, not a product. Public schools, not private profits."
For decades, billionaires and corporate interests have waged war on public education. They've pushed charter schools that drain funding from public schools, turned education into a profit center, and saddled students with crushing debt. Meanwhile, public school teachers buy supplies out of their own pockets and children go hungry during the school day.
Education is the foundation of democracy. It should be free, universal, and excellent, from pre-K through college. That's why we proudly support Senator Bernie Sanders' College for All Act, which would make public colleges and universities tuition-free for 95% of American families, eliminate tuition at community colleges and trade schools for everyone, and cancel student debt. This isn't radical; countries like Germany, France, and Denmark already provide free college education. We did it after World War II with the GI Bill, and we can do it again.
"Instead of giving tax breaks to billionaires, we're going to make public colleges and universities tuition-free so working-class students can succeed and are not burdened with a lifetime of debt." - Senator Bernie Sanders
"No one should sleep on the street while luxury condos sit empty."
Housing is not a commodity, it's a human right. Yet across America, rents skyrocket while wages stagnate. Families are evicted so landlords can raise prices. Investors buy up homes and leave them empty while people sleep in tents. The private market has failed us. it's time for a public option.
In Maryland's 3rd District, working families are being pushed out of neighborhoods they've lived in for generations. Teachers, nurses, and service workers can't afford to live in the communities they serve. This is class war, and the landlords are winning. That's why we support the HOMES Act, introduced by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Tina Smith, a bold plan to build 1.3 million permanently affordable homes and create over 400,000 good-paying jobs per year.
"A home is not an investment vehicle for Wall Street. It's the foundation of a dignified life. The HOMES Act offers a real solution: housing built for people, not profit."
"Ningún niño debe pasar hambre en la escuela en el país más rico del mundo."
Cada día, millones de niños van a la escuela con hambre. Se sientan en las aulas tratando de aprender mientras sus estómagos gruñen. Sienten vergüenza cuando no pueden pagar el almuerzo. Esto es inaceptable. En la nación más rica de la historia humana, cada niño merece un desayuno y almuerzo gratis en la escuela.
Las comidas escolares universales gratuitas no son caridad. Son una inversión en el futuro de nuestros hijos. Los estudiantes bien alimentados aprenden mejor, se comportan mejor y logran más. Esto es sentido común, y es lo correcto.
Apoyamos la Ley de Expansión del Acceso a Comidas Escolares de 2025 (H.R. 2680) y la Ley del Programa Universal de Comidas Escolares Gratuitas, que proporcionarían desayuno y almuerzo gratis a cada estudiante en Estados Unidos, sin importar los ingresos familiares.
"Un niño hambriento no puede aprender. Cuando alimentamos a nuestros hijos, invertimos en su futuro y en el futuro de Estados Unidos."
"Billionaires should not exist while children go hungry."
The richest Americans pay a lower effective tax rate than teachers, nurses, and firefighters. Corporations rake in record profits while paying zero in federal taxes. Wealth is hoarded at the top while infrastructure crumbles and public services are gutted.
This is not about envy, it's about justice. The billionaire class has rigged the system in their favor. They buy politicians, write their own tax laws, and hide trillions in offshore accounts. It's time to make them pay what they owe.
We support the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act, introduced by Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Pramila Jayapal, which would impose a 2% annual tax on wealth over $50 million and a 3% tax on wealth over $1 billion, raising at least $3 trillion over 10 years. We also support the Billionaires Income Tax, introduced by Sen. Ron Wyden with 18 Senate cosponsors.
"You didn't build that fortune alone. You used our roads, our schools, our workers. Now pay your share."
"The working class must not be disarmed."
The Second Amendment is an American right, and we should fight to keep it. Throughout history, the ability of working people to defend themselves has been essential to their liberation. From the labor battles of the early 20th century to the civil rights movement, armed self-defense has protected communities when the state would not.
I do not support attempts to limit arms for law-abiding citizens. However, I do support common-sense measures to keep weapons out of the hands of those who have demonstrated they are a danger to others. Violent criminals and domestic abusers should not have access to firearms. We can protect both our rights and our communities.
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." - Second Amendment, U.S. Constitution
"Tu factura de luz se dispara mientras los centros de datos de IA evitan las reglas. Eso se acaba ahora."
Solo en 2025, las empresas de servicios públicos solicitaron un récord de $31 mil millones en aumentos de tarifas, más del doble del año anterior. 56 millones de estadounidenses están viendo facturas de electricidad más altas, con algunos estados experimentando aumentos del 20%. Mientras tanto, la administración Trump emitió una orden ejecutiva que permite a los centros de datos de IA eludir las revisiones ambientales que todas las demás instalaciones importantes deben completar. Big Tech recibe trato especial mientras tú pagas más.
La electricidad no es un lujo. Es una necesidad para sobrevivir, para calentar y enfriar tu hogar, para mantener tu comida segura, para alimentar equipos médicos. No se debe permitir que las empresas de servicios públicos estafen a las familias por una necesidad básica mientras dan tratos preferenciales a los multimillonarios tecnológicos.
En julio de 2025, Trump firmó la Orden Ejecutiva 14318, "Acelerando los Permisos Federales de Infraestructura de Centros de Datos", que crea exclusiones categóricas de las revisiones ambientales de NEPA para centros de datos de IA. Esto significa que instalaciones masivas que consumen tanta electricidad como ciudades pequeñas pueden saltarse las evaluaciones de impacto ambiental requeridas para hospitales, fábricas y otros proyectos grandes. Tensionan nuestra red eléctrica, aumentan los costos para todos y no enfrentan ninguna responsabilidad.
"Cuando Big Tech puede saltarse las reglas mientras tu factura de luz se duplica, eso no es un mercado libre. Es bienestar corporativo. Vamos a hacer que jueguen con las mismas reglas que todos los demás."
"No puedes apoyar el derecho de un pueblo a la democracia si los matas de hambre."
Durante décadas, Estados Unidos ha utilizado sanciones económicas y embargos como armas de política exterior. Los políticos afirman que estas medidas presionan a los regímenes autoritarios, pero la realidad es muy diferente: las sanciones matan de hambre a los niños, niegan medicinas a los enfermos y castigan a la gente común por las acciones de sus gobiernos. No puedes afirmar que apoyas la democracia mientras haces la vida insoportable para las mismas personas que dices querer liberar.
Desde Cuba hasta Venezuela, desde Irán hasta Corea del Norte, los embargos estadounidenses han causado un sufrimiento humano inmenso sin lograr sus objetivos declarados. Mientras tanto, comerciamos libremente con aliados que cometen abusos de derechos humanos. Esta hipocresía debe terminar. El camino hacia un mundo más justo pasa por la diplomacia, el compromiso y la solidaridad con los trabajadores de todo el mundo, no por el castigo colectivo.
"Las sanciones no cambian gobiernos. Matan de hambre a los niños, niegan medicinas a los enfermos y castigan a los inocentes. La verdadera solidaridad con los pueblos oprimidos significa terminar con las políticas que hacen sus vidas más difíciles."
"It's time to focus on issues at home, not regime change abroad."
The United States spends more on its military than the next ten countries combined. We have over 750 military bases in 80 countries. We've been at war for most of our history, toppling governments, arming dictators, and destabilizing entire regions, all in the name of "national security" that makes us less safe.
The endless wars have cost us trillions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of lives. That money could have guaranteed healthcare, housing, and education for every American. Instead, it went to defense contractors and foreign occupations. Enough.
"We don't need a bigger military, we need a foreign policy that doesn't make enemies of the entire world. The path to security is justice, not domination."
"No one should profit from locking people in cages."
The United States incarcerates more people than any other country on Earth, both in total numbers and per capita. We have 5% of the world's population but 25% of its prisoners. And corporations are getting rich off this human suffering, lobbying for harsher sentences and more incarceration to fill their beds and boost their profits.
Private prison companies like CoreCivic and GEO Group make billions by warehousing human beings. They cut corners on food, medical care, and staffing to maximize profits. They lobby for policies that put more people behind bars. This is not justice; it's exploitation. Incarceration should never be a business model.
"A society should be judged by how it treats its most vulnerable members. Profiting from human cages while denying people dignity, healthcare, and a path to redemption is a moral failure we must end."
"Every person deserves to live authentically, with dignity and full equality under the law."
LGBTQ+ Americans face an unprecedented wave of attacks on their basic rights and dignity. In state legislatures across the country, hundreds of bills target transgender youth, restrict access to healthcare, ban books, and attempt to erase LGBTQ+ people from public life. This isn't about protecting anyone. It's about using vulnerable communities as political pawns.
Trans rights are human rights. Every person deserves access to affirming healthcare, the ability to participate fully in society, and protection from discrimination. We will fight back against the hate and ensure that all Americans can live as their authentic selves without fear of persecution or violence.
"The measure of our society is how we treat those who are different. When we attack trans kids, ban books, and deny people healthcare, we diminish ourselves. True freedom means everyone can live authentically."
