I can’t say my plan sets me apart. I cannot claim to have the technical expertise of someone like Jay Inslee. But I certainly have the passion & commitment. I understand that it’s the greatest moral crisis of our generation & that we have 12 years to act. marianne2020.com/issues/clim…

We need an integrative politics, in which we realize that inner change & outer change are both necessary if we’re to transform America. It’s not one or the other. We need to find deeper values and stand on them, in both our personal & our public domains. Marianne2020.com

I hate having to tell you we need another 65,000 unique donors before August 28 in order to make it into the 3rd debate. I hate having to tell you how hard the system makes it for democracy to work, but that’s the point & it’s why am running. Let’s DO it. secure.actblue.com/donate/ma…
