They brag about cutting childhood poverty in half as though that’s the best they can do. No it is not the best they can do.

First, let’s define “they” and remember exactly who we’re talking about 🙄. My favorite thought? Get @RepKatiePorter to give it the old ‘splain with her white board. WTH do we even HAVE child poverty - or any poverty - in this country? Let’s have a primer.

I read that is not true, that it would've been true if the $15 min wage had passed.

It’s a beginning.

They just proved it could be done any time they wanted to. They don't want to.

I think they are just happy about actually getting something done that will help a lot of people. That is not easy in this system.

In fact "they" (DOD can clean up their military contractors and defund one large project that they KNOW is dangerous to life and dole out this money directly to We the PPL- It could lift hardship off hard scrabble poverty
Replying to @marwilliamson
No they can't especially with bad schools, drug use, dropping out, single parent households. Individuals need to do their part. Equal opportunity.
