It's a simple truth: our tax dollars should go towards supporting working families. That means fighting for Medicare for All, housing first, universal childcare, and an arms embargo.

Putting Working Families First

Safe, stable housing is one of the strongest predictors of long-term health, educational attainment, and economic mobility. Over&nbsp;770,000 people&nbsp;experience homelessness on any given night in the U.S. while we sit idly by with the resources to end it ten-fold. When people have a place to call home, everything else becomes possible, it's time we prioritize housing as a basic human right.

Housing

Opportunity means nothing without reliable childcare, yet parents today face impossible choices: pay the equivalent of a second rent, cut back on work, or rely on a patchwork of favors. Families shouldn’t have to depend on luck to get through the week. Universal childcare would ensure every child has a safe place to grow and every parent has the freedom to work and plan for the future.

Universal Childcare

Access to healthcare is directly linked to longer life expectancy, better mental health, and greater economic productivity. Yet over&nbsp;27 million Americans&nbsp;remain uninsured, and medical debt is the leading cause of bankruptcy in the U.S. No one should suffer or go bankrupt because they can’t afford healthcare. It's time we pass Medicare for All.

Healthcare

At $30 billion, our tax dollars have funded what nearly every human rights organization in the world, including the United Nations, has called a genocide in Palestine. Today, 75% of Democrats want to end all military aid to Israel, but our representatives aren't listening. We deserve leaders who stand up for human rights and listen to their constituents, not their wealthy donors.

Seeking out community and support from other Ethiopian immigrants, her family moved to Denver, Colorado. Melat grew up watching her parents struggle to navigate an unfamiliar country while working multiple jobs to pay the bills and put her father through pharmacy school, but she also witnessed the power of community as family and friends would lend her parents a hand with babysitting, grocery shopping, and job searching, and soon her parents would be able to do the same for others.

While working as an attorney in New York City, Melat witnessed the bravery of the student protesting for Palestine despite the risk of punishment and losing their job offers for. She decided to write an article defending the students and their critique of Israel. After being asked to take down the article, Melat refused, and she was fired. She may have lost her job but she was reminded that even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds, change only happens when we show up for it. Today, Melat is running as a Democratic Socialist to fight for the working people of Denver, to deliver a more affordable city, and to root out the corruption in government once and for all.

<h2>How to handle donations on your website</h2>Run does not process donations directly on our platform, as is standard with most political and advocacy sites. Campaigns are often required to comply with reporting requirements, donation limits, and other regulations, so using a donation processor that specializes in serving campaigns is generally a good idea. Sign up with a donation processor and then on your Pages sidebar, click the Link icon on the Donate page and add the link to your donation page. Some common options for donation processing include:<ul><li><a href="https://secure.actblue.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ActBlue</a></li><li><a href="https://www.campaigndeputy.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Campaign Deputy</a> </li><li><a href="https://goodchange.app/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">GoodChange</a></li><li><a href="https://numero.ai/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Numero</a></li></ul>
