Republicans as well as Democrats agree that the American people deserve basic economic rights. My speech on May 18th will highlight my proposal for a 21st Century Economic Bill of Rights.

The people want an Economic Bill of Rights. New polling from @DataProgress shows a large majority of voters — including a majority of Republicans — support economic rights. There's broad support for these ideas in the abstract & when details are provided filesforprogress.org/memos/d…

The people have no economic rights under capitalism. You can't reform the system, we need socialism. Will you call for socialism or just claim we can reform the system?

You don’t “deserve” rights. You either have rights or you don’t.

Where in this economic bill of rights is: a) a balanced national budget, b) decreasing the national deficit, c) lowering taxes? Your plan looks like standard democratic BS to me.

Done. #UDHR Article 25 & International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights ohchr.org/en/press-relea… We have recourse. Victims of human rights abuses or those w/ credible evidence of victims, can report violations to the UN. Hint: Start w/ disabled people.

Who defines “well-paying”, “decent home”, “good education”. Americans already have the right to all those things anyway, just have to work for them.

Pro WAR is ANTI Worker. Full stop. You’re pro war. Therefore, you support the financial duress/enlist to SURVIVE draft the US is currently employing. Cut the con. You won’t be believable on your Sanders Domestic rhetoric UNLESS you change your foreign policy positions.
