“The job of the progressive movement now is to look forward, not backward. No matter what Secretary Clinton may have said years ago behind closed doors, what is important today is that millions of people stand up and demand that the Democratic Party implement the most progressive reform in the history of our country.
“Secretary Clinton and I worked together to develop a platform that demands the United States government stand up to billionaire class and represent the interest of working families. That has got to be the agenda of Secretary Clinton is she is elected President and of Democrats in the Congress.
“That platform calls for breaking up big banks, making the wealthy and profitable corporations pay their fair share of taxes, creating millions of jobs rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure, raising the starvation minimum wage of $7.25 an hour for a living wage, making public colleages and university tuition free for the middle class families, taking bold initiative to combat climate change, making health care available to million more Americans”, he said
