Industries were well regulated, everyone was fairly taxed, strong unions contributed to an unrivaled middle class, human rights were signed into law, and the GI bill was passed. The GI Bill was instrumental in my own higher educational degrees and success in life. As a military veteran and concerned citizen, I am appalled by the silence of our Congress and Senate Republicans. They are actively allowing our nation to become a dictatorship controlled by DJT, big business, and the ultra-rich. I am very concerned and will honor my oath to defend and protect our Constitution.
