reminder that biden wants to:
raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour
scrap past marijuana convictions
make college free for two years
increase the pay for teachers, particularly in underfunded schools
significantly increase taxes on the rich (both direct wealth taxes along with additional taxes on major corporations)
have universal background checks for firearm purchases
get us back into the paris agreement in order to switch to clean energy by 2035 (and his plan has been outlined already and the first few steps have been specified)
end the cocaine sentencing disparity (as it is deeply racist)
abolish the death penalty
support a government mandated 12 weeks of paid family leave for workers
eliminate private prisons
this man fully acknowledges the science behind climate change (unlike trump), wants to work to fix certain racist elements in american society (unlike trump), supports the lower and middle classes (unlike trump), is willing to put his money where his mouth is (unlike trump), and isnāt a full on fascist that ignores the global pandemic and takes the side of neo-nazis and white supremacists (unlike trump). biden is miles better than trump. is he the ideal candidate? no, but he is willing to work towards making the USA a more progressive place and that is the first step we need to take. vote blue.
Please put this out thereĀ
