" We should be passing voting rights laws, and exploring alternative models like ranked-choice voting."

Voting rights laws that comply with the U.S. Constitution should be passed at the state - not federal - level. I strongly support ranked-choice voting to replace single choice plurality voting.

"We should be passing minimum income laws and reforming our tax system to truly benefit the middle and working class."

It has been my opinion for many years that the global economy is the cause of minimal income in the U.S.A. and will be until the income of people in other countries approaches that of the U.S.A. Products manufactured in "sweat shops" equivalent to those manufactured in the U.S.A. are cheaper and more marketable. There used to be a "buy USA" movement but people wouldn't pay the extra cost.
