Vote for those who care about future

"It doesn't matter. We won." These are Trump's words negating Professor Ford's moving testimony before the Senate Judicial Committee. To Trump and his minions, like McConnell, Ryan and Roskam, winning is all that matters.

Affordable health care, Medicare, Social Security, climate change, environmental protection, voting rights, gun control, European allies, the national debt, public education, equal opportunity, protection of young immigrants, election interference, wages, tariffs, freedom of the press ... If any of these "matter" to you, then vote for representatives who care for you and this country.

Vote in Congress for Brad Schneider (10th), Raja Krishnamoorthi (8th) and Sean Casten (6th). Before 2016 this was a far better nation. Let us return to the principles and actions that made the USA a world leader. Vote for those who care about what really matters.
