As the 2020 elections heat up, one of the most important in US history, Americans face a devastated economy, more hunger, joblessness, police killings and an abysmal for-profit health care system. But the crisis of Covid-19, and now the movement for Black Lives, has shown that there is power in people joining together to make their demands. Some killer cops have been indicted. Some homeless people have been housed, some unemployed people have received aid, some prisoners have been released from disease-infected jails and some sick patients have been treated regardless of their ability to pay. If we can do these minimal things in a crisis, why can’t such reforms be made permanent and apply to everyone?
They can be — and must be. Anyone running for office today must stand up for our demands. And already, there are many progressive candidates running in different states that are taking up our demands. We need to get candidates in that will fight for us, and that will take on the corporations. All this is part and parcel of our ongoing effort to build a new society and government organized around the needs and morality of the majority, not the billionaires.
