A Wall Street money manager should not be able to pay a lower tax rate than a teacher or a nurse.
If companies try to leave our country to avoid paying their fair share, if they try to outsource jobs, they're going to have to give back every tax break they ever received in our country.
As a senator, I raised the alarm about sub prime mortgages. I fought to hold reckless manufacturers accountable for toxic toys and household products that threaten our kids. I introduced legislation to protect Americans' personal data and combat identity theft. So as president, I will make consumer protection a top priority across the entire government.
Instead of gutting consumer protection, we should be expanding it.
When we find unjustified spikes in the prices of long-standing life-saving drugs, we should slap penalties on companies trying to cheat people who need those drugs!
No one should ever have to choose between paying the rent and filling their prescriptions.
Let's stand up for taxpayers, let's stand up for consumers, and let's stand up for small businesses, which create most of the jobs in America.
When it comes to bullying small businesses, Donald Trump is the poster boy.
I have heard so many stories of contractors, and I've met some, too, who worked for Donald Trump, produced the goods and services and never got paid for what they were owed.
I'm just grateful my dad never got a contract with Donald Trump, because I don't know what we would have done.
More than 60 percent of small businesses face payment delays. That can cause a serious cash flow crisis. So, as president, I will explore new ways to arm small businesses with the tools to fight back and level the playing field.
Large corporations are amassing so much power in our economy. Sometimes it's called market concentration or even old-fashioned monopolies.
With less competition, corporations can use their power to raise prices, limit choice for consumers, cut wages for workers, crowd out start-ups and small businesses.
In most of the USA, the three largest health insurance companies in each state control 80 percent of the market. No wonder premiums are going up.
I want every business to compete and thrive.
We need to support new organizing strategies for employees who too often have never had the benefit of collective bargaining, and we have to resist the assault on workers' rights.
Let's also, my friends, let's raise the minimum wage and support the 5 for 15 so you don't live in poverty.
Let's provide family leave that is paid and access to affordable, high-quality childcare.
Let's finally guarantee equal pay for women.
If fighting for working families is playing the women's card, you know what, deal me in.
I want to take some of the ideas that worked when my husband was president, and we ended up with 23 million new jobs and incomes went up for everybody.
I am going to bring back infrastructure jobs, advanced manufacturing jobs, clean renewable energy jobs, innovation, technology, small business.
I'm a grandmother and like every grandmother, I worry about the safety and security of my grandchildren, but my worries are not the same as black grandmothers.
When I was a senior, I ran for class president. And I lost. One of my opponents even told me I was "really stupid" if I thought a girl could be elected president.
I am not taking a position on any policy, but I do think there is a growing sense of anxiety and even anger in America over the feeling that the game is rigged. And I never had that feeling when I was growing up. Never.
