As Americans, we all are concerned about the economy. Our best days have occurred when hard work led to a decent standard of living and the American Dream was actually attainable. If we are to remain a great nation, our economy must support a large and secure middle class. I will work for full employment and decent wages for all Americans.
Despite arguments to the contrary, we have not all suffered proportionally during this economic downturn. I will support policies that strengthen the middle class by requiring all Americans to pay their fair share in taxes.
