Divisiveness cannot survive if we focus our efforts on collaboration and unity. I want you to stress the social contract that built this country--those who have surged ahead have an obligation to help those who have not yet made their mark. The 1% have thrived thanks to a system built over decades of public investment in schools, roads, ports, communications, regulatory agencies, and the courts.
I want you to talk about how paying taxes is a patriotic duty that shows you support your fellow Americans and want every American to have the chance to build their own economic future.
The large banks that dominate the financial sector don't pay attention to small businesses, and the thousands of small, local banks are under tremendous strain. I want you to start a bipartisan initiative to restore small-bank programs in small towns for local businesses.
Build bipartisan support for the USDA programs that matched local farms with local schools so that both benefitted, and fully fund the farm-to school programs that got cut in March.
Local businesses are where all Americans can come together. I want you to draft legislation to make sure the rich pay their fair share of taxes and small-town businesses can thrive. I know this legislation might not move now, but I want it out there. I want you talking about it to show that a different path forward exists.
