American Agenda

Sen. Bernie Sanders detailed a 12-point economic agenda to rebuild America’s middle class by creating jobs and raising wages. “The question of our time is whether we take on the billionaire class or whether we continue to slide into oligarchy,” he said in Senate speech. Looking ahead to the new session of Congress that begins in January, Sanders was guardedly optimistic. “If the president remains strong and we rally the American people, we can implement some important policies,” he said in the interview broadcast on Sunday. WATCH
