Getting Trump and his Senate sycophants out of office is only the first step in making America the country it needs to be. The following is an agenda that I think would help to exceed the dreams of our founders and would meet the needs of citizens who want to live in a country characterized by true equality, true freedom, and true justice. These items should be our “Second” priority after getting Trump out of office.
- Universal day care for all working parents
- Develop a National Agency Against Racism and Sexism
- Low cost Internet for all citizens
- Term Limits for all National political offices – 2 six-year terms maximum. No holding any public office for ten years after
- Expand Affordable Care Act to insure healthcare for all citizens
- Major Education Changes – develop a 21st century education system (see my blog on this subject)
- Infrastructure Plan (Biden Plan a Start)
- Start Closing Military Bases overseas
- Major Campaign Funding Reform
- Repeal Citizens United
- Abolish Lobbying
- Limit Executive Privilege and Executive Orders
- Limit for Supreme Court Tenure to 15 years
- Restore fair representation by eliminating gerrymandering
- Abolish the electoral college
- Reform corporate law to restore the balance of power between workers and management.
- Adopt a plan for immigration based on care and compassion for all human beings
- Reform the criminal justice and legal system
- Ensure that LGBTQ citizens have the same rights as all other citizens in the USA
- Reform tax law so that it is equitable and fair
