“The days of treating our public schools like they are for sale are over. The days of treating our tax dollars like your personal piggy bank are over. The days of writing one set of rules for working people and another for the wealthy and well-to-do are over. And the days of telling Texans to settle for less while only billionaires in boardrooms profit from a state we have all built, those days are over too."

4. (SOUNDBITE) (English) DEMOCRATIC SENATOR-ELECT FOR KANSAS, ADAM HAMILTON, SAYING:
”I think I got elected after getting the race just six months ago. I think I got elected because Kansans were saying we're tired of the bullies. We're tired of the chaos. We’re tired of harming people, we’re no longer going to ignore the pain of our neighbors. There’re a lot of Kansans saying let's love our neighbors as we love ourselves. See Kansans are decent people, they’re good people, they’re pragmatic, they care about each other. That’s who we are, Kansas.”

Where our farmers can afford to keep working the land their grandfathers did, and where every child has access to world-class education. Where we fix our broken healthcare system. So where you live doesn't determine if you live. Where our young people want to and can afford to stay in Iowa, have a family, buy a house, and start a life. Iowa. This is where our comeback begins."

Michiganders, we want our taxes spent here, for schools here, and healthcare here, and infrastructure here. We don't want our money sent to do apartheid or genocide or war."
