Thank you, Cullen💙 I'm coming back soon, New Hampshire!

Americans should have the same health and educational opportunities as the citizens in every other advanced democracy.

My heart breaks for the Iranian woman. Prayers for them and for the men who support them. (By the way, Trump taking us out of the Iran Nuclear Deal bolstered the power of the hardliners there.) bbc.com/news/world-middle-ea…

The entire loan debt should be eradicated, but to the extent that it exists there should absolutely be bankruptcy protections. We should be supporting the dreams of our youth, not thwarting them .
