New - @BernieSanders to unveil new mega tax on America’s ~1,000 billionaires, would raise $4.4 trillion

- Expand Medicare to cover dental/vision/hearing for all seniors
- Ensure every public school teacher gets paid at least $60K/yr
- $850B for affordable home construction (“abolish homelessness”)
- Universal childcare
- Reverse Trump Medicaid cuts

Holy sh*t. Of all the Kamala Harris rallies I’ve watched, I’ve never seen anything like this. THOUSANDS of people are doing the swag on the floor & in the stands. Texas isn’t going back. This is AMAZING.
