Top Priorities if Elected |
- Organize! Use union power to resist bosses' attacks; for a labor party based on fighting unions
- U.S. out of Iraq! Back right of semicolonial countries to get sources of energy they need, including nuclear energy.
- For a massive federally funded public works program to put millions to work at union wages building housing, schools, mass transit, hospitals.

- Not One More Cent for Cops!
-
Oppose increasing the sales tax to fund more cops.
Jail the guilty cops who killed Devin Brown beat Donovan Jackson and Stanley Miller and who killed the innocent sons of the Martinez, Damion, and Quesada families.
- US Out of Iraq, Stop Attacks on Iran!
-
For immediate and unconditional withdrawal of US troops from Iraq. The people of Iran as well as other semicolonial countries have the right to develop nuclear power.
- US Hands Off Cuba and Venezuela!
-
End Washington's economic war against Cuba. Halt attempts to overthrow the democratically elected government of Venezuela.
