Some guideposts & touchstones from #HeatherCoxRichardson
Everybody is created equal.
The government has a responsibility to protect that equality,
To make sure that everybody is treated equally before the law,
They have equal access to resources,
& they have a right to a say in their government.The government has a role to play in:
Regulating business,
Providing a basic social safety net,
Ppromoting infrastructure,
& protecting civil rights. >

#TheWorldIWantToLiveIn #BuildBackBetter"Human rights are for everyone.
No, dignity is not conditional.
No, your worth is not decided by your gender, race, income, ability, identity, age, or beliefs.
No, justice should not be reserved for the privileged few.
No one is “less than.”
You are human. That alone is enough to deserve safety, respect, equality, and freedom.
Every person. Every place. Every time."
