Companies like Walmart don't pay workers enough to buy food — and then turn around and makes millions from SNAP dollars spent in their stores.
My plan puts people first: lowering food costs and making sure a full-time job is enough to keep food on the table. #hunger #snap #poverty #greed

In the richest country in the world, it’s inexcusable that our veterans don’t have the guarantee of food on the table. We owe a debt of gratitude to those who serve — a debt we’re falling short of meeting. It’s time to get our priorities right.

Nancy Pelosi showed a generation of women that there was room for them in politics — and how to wield power to get things done. Stepping away and making room for new leaders is in keeping with her historic career: always able to play the long game. May she enjoy the next chapter. #WhenWomenLead

Corruption is the reason food assistance is expiring and health care costs are skyrocketing. But it isn't a new problem. Restoring trust and accountability to government has to be at the heart of how we fix Washington. #corruption #peoplepower
