"Look, I would just love it if democracy were easy."
"I believe in an America where I can change jobs and not have to worry about whether or not I could lose my health care. I believe in an America where I can have a baby and know that I won’t have to quit work to stay home, and that I will actually be able to get high-quality child care. I believe in an America that works not for a handful at the top, but that works for all of us. If you can just feel the tiniest little spark of that belief, keep it alive, get in the fight and we actually could make this happen."
