MORGAN’S PRIORITIES

PROSPERITY

A line drawing of two hands shaking.

The United States of America, the land of milk and honey, has the most powerful economy in world history.  The people who have contributed the most to the prosperity of America are those who work at the bottom, not the top.  

It is time for those who built this country to benefit from it.  For the first time in history, a 30 year old is doing worse than his or her parents at the same age.  The American Dream has been torn apart, and it is the top 1% who ripped it at the seams.  

We are the ones paying for stock buybacks and private jets.  Every denied health insurance claim helps with the down payment on a yacht.  We get 5 pencils, and they get jets.  

A Democratic Congress will promote the general welfare, and make the rich pay for their privilege.

JUSTICE

Outline of a balanced scale over an open book.

We are a nation of laws.  Our democratic leaders have stood by while masked men with no ID kidnap people off the streets.  Due process is not an inconvenience, or some WOKE liberal talking point.  

When you do not have due process, you can never be sure who you are jailing, or who you are deporting.  DHS and ICE, under the direction of Kristi Noem and Tom Homan, are running the largest Human Trafficking ring in the world.  

“I was just following orders,” was not a legitimate excuse in 1945, and even more so it is not an excuse in 2025.  The criminal Statute of Limitations for Human Trafficking in the United States extends far past the next Presidential Election.  

A Democratic Congress will make Noem and Hogan’s lives hell.

FOREIGN POLICY

The United States of America has been the shining city on the hill.  The one that other peoples throughout the world have looked to for guidance and leadership.  

The Brand AMERICA is in rubble throughout the world.  What was once strength, honesty and win-win, has become paranoia, whining and crying.  We need people in government who have the ability to understand how others live, and how others think.  We cannot afford the stupidity to think that we are smarter than everyone else.  Beyond our borders do not live a lesser people.  

America is not great as the world’s policeman.  However, the USA has been terrific as the world’s EMT.  We can exercise soft power as a trusted and reliable partner, or China can do it.  

“If you don’t fund the State Department fully, then I need to buy more ammunition,” said General James Mattis. 

A Democratic Congress will relight that beacon of hope the world needs.

ROLE OF GOVERNMENT

Outline of a building with a facade and a dome on top.

Despite many mistakes and terrible missteps over the past 250 years, there is no potential greater force for good than the United States Government.  

We freed the slaves. We cured polio.  We had defeated fascism. We put a man on the moon. We passed the Civil Rights Act.  We cleaned our air and water.  

If Corporations and Oligarchs are the 800-pound gorillas, the US Government is 900 pounds.  

The Constitution created the Congress in Article I, and the Presidency in Article II.  All legislative powers in the United States are vested in the Congress of the United States.  The President cannot spend any money unless we say so.    

The Executive Branch will see a Democratic Congress with teeth.

EDUCATION

Republican legislators want to keep you dumb and uninformed.  They are attacking educational institutions not because they are liberal, but because they are threats.  Reality has a well -known liberal bias.

Public Education is the basis of our working and middle class.  Cut Head Start, and billionaires get more Melania Meme coin.  Gut teacher training, and just let the AI bros teach (and profit from) your kids.  Slash grants for special education, and give the money to ExxonMobil. 

The Democratic Congress will block the idiots in the Executive Branch from selling our children’s education to the highest bidder.
