Well, let's start with we've got to speak plainly to the American people about what really matters, right?

And we've got to make sure that people understand what we're doing to get things done. Every one of the four governors on here have accomplished really important things in our state. So I'll give you an example in my state. You know, there's a federal minimum wage, $7.25. Nobody can live on $7.25 anymore. It's $14,000 a year if you're working full time. You've got to work.

two to three jobs to take care of your family at $7.25. It's impossible. So in my state, we raised the minimum wage to $15. It was important to us to make sure that we're lifting people out of poverty. If you're going to work full time, you ought to get a wage that's appropriate to that, that you can live on. So that's something that we ought to be talking about federally.

The $7.25 minimum wage, not enough. And Democrats are for raising it. Republicans don't want to raise it. In fact, many of them would like to do away with the minimum wage. So we should be speaking plainly about raising wages. We should be speaking plainly about the fact that we are for universal health care. Every one of us believes that. Health care is a right, not a privilege.
