Vice President and Presidential Nominee Kamala Harris: “We are charting a new way forward. Forward to a future with a strong and growing middle class because we know a strong middle class has always been critical to America’s success and building that middle class will be a defining goal of my presidency. … As president, I will bring together labor and workers and small business owners and entrepreneurs and American companies to create jobs to grow our economy and to lower the cost of everyday needs like health care and housing and groceries. We will provide access to capital for small business owners and entrepreneurs. … And we will end America’s housing shortage and protect social security and medicare.&nbsp; … In this election, many other fundamental freedoms are at stake. The freedom to live safe from gun violence in our schools, communities, and places of worship. The freedom to love who you love openly and with pride. The freedom to breathe clean air and drink clean water, and live free from the pollution that fuels the climate crisis. … And the freedom that unlocks all the others, the freedom to vote.” President Joe Biden : “Selecting Kamala was the very first decision I made when I became our nominee,and it was the best decision I made my whole career. She’s tough, she’s experienced and she has enormous integrity. Her story represents the best American story. And like many of our best presidents, she was also vice president.” Former Sen. (New York) and Presidential Candidate Hilllary Clinton : “We refused to give up on America. We kept our eyes on the future. Well, my friends, the future is here. Together we put a lot of cracks in the highest, hardest glass ceiling. Tonight, so close to breaking through once and for all, I want to tell you what I see through all those cracks. I see freedom … the freedom to look our children in the eye and say you can go as far as your hard work and talent will take you — and mean it.” Former First Lady Michelle Obama : “Harris understands that most of us will never be afforded the grace of failing forward. We will never benefit from the affirmative action of generational wealth. If we bankrupt a business or choke in a crisis, we don’t get a second, third or fourth chance. If things don’t go our way, we don’t have the luxury of whining or cheating others to get further ahead. We don’t get to change the rules so we always win. Who’s going to tell him that the job he’s currently seeking might just be one of those Black jobs?” Media titan Oprah Winfrey : “Decency and respect are on the ballot in 2024. Common sense tells you that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz can give us decency and respect. … Let us choose the sweet promise of tomorrow, over the bitter return to yesterday. We won’t go back. We won’t be set back. Push back, believe back, kick back. We’re not going back.” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (Massachusetts) : She’ll take on Wall Street firms that buy up millions of houses and apartments, and then jack up the rent. She’ll take on drug companies that charge an arm and a leg for prescriptions. She’ll take on corporate monopolies that rip off consumers and billionaires who don’t pay taxes.” </div></body>
