From the separation of children from their families, to holding the children in cages,to denying them proper healthcare (at least one child has died of flu while in custody at the border), the United States government is consciously perpetrating trauma upon an innocent population

The demonization, even mistreatment of the immigrant - particularly those at our southern border - is one of the darkest legacies of the current administration. People of conscience abhor the idea that public policy would ever be an instrument of cruelty, yet today it happens.

My father was an immigration lawyer and I was raised with a deep appreciation for the plight of the immigrant. All four of my grandparents came as immigrants through Ellis Island. Immigrants typically contribute as much to this country as this country contributes to them.

We routinely hear the argument between single payer & public option, but we must ask other questions as well. It’s not just how to pay for healthcare—but also why so many of us are so sick, and what kinds of treatment insurance will cover—that concerns me. marianne2020.com/posts/towar…

The deepest sorrow, my deepest prayers for Jersey City right now. Dear God, May those who suffer be comforted and healed. Amen.

Our money doesn’t come from corporate chieftains dropping crumbs from their table in the form of job creation; it comes from the creativity and productivity of the American people.

The issue of paid family leave encapsulates what’s wrong with America (we don’t have it) to the transition we’re making now (people want it). Mothers and fathers should be able to trade off time with a newborn for a full three months. usatoday.com/in-depth/news/e…

In Judaism it says every generation must rediscover God for itself. Similarly, every generation of Americans must re-discover the importance of democracy for ourselves. When we fail to psychologically and emotionally embrace its importance, others can inevitably begin to steal it

That’s why any undermining of our democracy - from political gerrymandering to voter suppression to the dominance of money and party manipulation of the process – should be seen as an attack on our most basic freedom and strongly resisted.

Democracy is genius. Why? Because it’s a channel for the emergence of group conscience, a place where the best of who we are can come together with the best of who others are to create a wave of collective wisdom.

My Whole Health Plan focuses on health-creation, providing universal healthcare & incentivizing health. Provides coverage for integrative medical as well as allopathic techniques, balances a pharmaceutical/surgical approach with access to natural remedies marianne2020.com/issues/the-…

Yep. That was me...
I’m covering @marwilliamson in Des Moines tonight. We’re at the Open Sesame cafe, which has an ambiance like no other campaign event I’ve been to.

American involvement in the Saudi-led war in Yemen destroys any semblance of moral authority in American foreign policy. 85,000 children have starved to death in a war we support for one reason: a $350B arms deal. That's who we've become, folks. And we must change that.
