This Labor Day, let’s commit to working together for the change we need. <[link removed]>
<[link removed]> <[link removed]> <[link removed]>Dear Friend,Kamala Harris likes to boast about the success of Bidenomics and the prosperity it has supposedly brought to our country. But in criss-crossing America myself, I’m not seeing evidence of that prosperity.Instead, I’m seeing an America I never thought I’d witness—an America where giant disparities in wealth have left most Americans living on the precipice of desperation.Today, the average income in this country is $5,000 less than the basic cost of living, and 35% of Americans are not making enough to pay for basic human needs like transportation, food, and housing. This means they are forced to make impossible choices every day.American parents across the country are sitting in their living rooms, listening to a baby cry in the next room, and wondering if that baby is $30 sick, $200 sick, or $500 sick before they dare bring them to a hospital. They’re choosing between medicine, food, gasoline, and rent.To bridge the gap between their income and their needs, Americans are increasingly relying on credit cards. We now have the greatest credit card debt in American history—$300 billion more than just a few years ago—with an average interest rate of around 22%.When the mafia charges those kinds of rates, they call it loan sharking. When banks do it, they just call it interest..If we’re doing so well, then why is it that today 57% of Americans can’t put their hands on $1,000 in case of an emergency? For the first time in our history, two-thirds of us believe that our children will be worse off than we are today.For most Americans, the American Dream has turned into an American nightmare. Whatever graphs, data, and statistics government officials use to try to gaslight us into believing that everything is hunky-dory, the reality is written across this country on the plywood that boards up all the closed businesses—from Main Street to Union Square in San Francisco—and it’s etched on the faces of mothers and fathers who gather weekly at their kitchen table to figure out how in the world they’re going to make ends meet.That kitchen table math is far more reliable than the sunny economic projections we’re getting from our elected officials, including those in the White House.Every American family knows in their bones that these tales of a booming economy don’t add up.A Harris administration will continue to adopt policies that favor Wall Street, tech billionaires, and military contractors over the American middle class. These interests are strip-mining America of its equity, wealth, salaries, and ultimately, our democracy.With your support, I will be able to yield significant influence in a new administration that cares about YOUR economy—not the war economy, the bank economy, the finance economy, or the Wall Street economy, and not the theoretical economy on charts and graphs. <[link removed]>This Labor Day, let’s commit to working together for the change we need—a government that will finally solve the problems it created and put the American people first.Sincerely,Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. <[link removed]> <[link removed]> <[link removed]> <[link removed]> <[link removed]> <[link removed]> <[link removed]> <[link removed]>
