- An immediate repeal of the Patriot Act and all other laws and policies including the Military Commissions Act and the Detainee Treatment Act that undermine our constitutional rights.
- Immigration reform, whereby the U.S.'s estimated seven million undocumented workers are able to obtain a path to legal status.
- An increase in the Federal Minimum Wage to $8.50 an hour, in line with the minimum wage in Canada and Europe.
- Legislation that legalizes/decriminalizes marijuana, and a new drug policy that institutionalizes "harm reduction," rather than incarceration, as the crux of our drug policy.
