Yes, unless you're asking me to fundraise.

But the lefties I see are pretty focused on health care.

It's also a little weird how little attention is paid to the very real possibility that all parents will soon have access to childcare that won't bankrupt them. Which is probably because Dems aren't fighting with each other about it.

Around these parts policing has been a major issue, with the progressive left trying to do something that is an immediate concern for a lot of people but also left a lot of room for the status quo to fear monger other people into saying no.
I'm not seeing anyone talking about healthcare or childcare.

What is the progressive left trying to do about policing? I hear slogans like "Defund the Police" that seemed designed to lose moderate support and not get anything concrete done.
