What’s at Stake for You in Election 2024?

Biden On Democracy

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris will continue the work they have begun for all Americans, notably the following…

“Democracy means having the freedom to speak your mind, to be who you are, to be who you want to be. Democracy is about being able to bring about peaceful change. Democracy is how we’ve opened the doors of opportunity wider and wider with each successive generation, notwithstanding our mistakes. The alternative to democracy is dictatorship – the rule of one, not the rule of ‘We the People’.”
– President Biden speaking at Valley Forge on Jan. 5, 2024

• On Women’s Rights
  The Biden-Harris administration will continue to defend a woman’s right to make decisions about her body, including reproductive healthcare decisions, without government or citizen interference.
• On Transgender Rights
  Biden-Harris has an unparalleled record of advancing LGBTQ+ equality; from initiating executive actions and rulemaking to signing federal legislation into law.
• On Economic Equality
  Biden-Harris will continue investing in America’s economic growth for all citizens, not just the wealthiest. We have the best job market since the 1960s and the lowest unemployment rate in U.S. history. The Biden-Harris team will work to ensure that all Americans pay their fair share of taxes.
• On Healthcare Insurance
  The Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) continues to expand, delivering quality healthcare that covers all conditions no matter your economic standing.
  

Donald Trump promises much if elected, notably the following…

• Trump On Democracy
  Trump asserts that he would only be a dictator on “day one” of
  a second term as he faces growing scrutiny over his increasingly authoritarian and violent rhetoric. The consequences of that rhetoric were made clear following the deadly storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, and after he tried to remain in power despite losing his 2020 reelection bid. The former president is now vowing vengeance and retribution as he runs again.
• On Women’s Rights
  Trump’s three Supreme Court nominees all lied that they would honor Roe v. Wade, which established the right to abortion, in their confirmation hearings and then overturned that 49-year-old precedent. Trump promises to continue the government assault on women’s rights.
• On Transgender Rights
  Trump says he will ask Congress to pass a bill establishing that “only two genders,” as determined at birth, are recognized by the United States.
• On Economic Equality
  Trump promises more tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations, paid for by the middle and lower classes.
• On Healthcare Insurance
  Trump has promised to end The Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), leaving as the only option private insurance that may not cover preexisting conditions.
