They want a decent standard of living. They want human dignity and a voice in their own futures. They want their children to grow up strong and healthy and free.»

«There can never be any excuse for sacrificing our children?s futures to keep corporate tax loopholes and tax giveaways to millionaires. If we can?t put our children first, who can we put first? If we can?t put our kids first, what does it say about our nation?»
