BERNIE FUCKIN SANDERS

Bernie Sanders’s immigration plan: a response from the front-lines of struggle
I live in Queens, New York, one of the
most diverse areas in the country. I arrived from Mexico as a child in
the post 9/11 period of social militarization, carried out under the
veil of “national security”. This era has been marked by scapegoating
and repression. Between the Republican Party’s nauseatingly
racist attacks on our civil rights and the shallow support from
establishment Democrats, the voice of undocumented immigrants is
generally ignored. This is especially the case when it does not fall in
line with the Democratic Party, or if we go beyond merely registering
our documented community to vote “blue”.
The Obamacare Fight Is Over — Now It’s Onto Universal Medicare
The battle over the ACA is over. The fight for what comes next will begin in earnest on Wednesday with the introduction of Sen. Bernie Sanders’s bill to create a universal Medicare program, the most fleshed-out single-payer proposal ever introduced in Congress.
The campaign for the Vermont independent’s bill will start with the backing of at least 15 Democratic co-sponsors and 24 progressive and health care advocacy groups, numbers that will only grow in the coming days and weeks.
