common consensus grow issues points realize shared starting values
I think it's really, really important to grow the consensus and to realize that there is always some value that can be shared with another American, on any issue.

Our story, Maryland's story, is the story of better choices and better results.

affordable answers children class college dollars earned feed feeding fewer grow hungry income middle minimum raise tax
The answers to feeding hungry children is not fewer dollars to feed hungry children, it's to do more. It is to raise the minimum wage. It is to increase, not dismantle, the earned income tax credit. It is to make college more affordable for more middle class families, not more expensive. These are the things that grow our middle class.
