HILLARY CLINTON ROOM
GRETA JOCHEM
Are you ready for Hillary? Ready or not, here she comes. As proven by her speech Monday, Clinton’s campaign is in full swing. This was Clinton’s first major speech since launching her campaign in April. Speaking at the New School in Manhattan in Greenwich Village, Clinton officially outlined out her economic platform.
So far, Clinton is the obvious frontrunner for the Democratic nominee, although Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is gaining growing support. In Clinton’s first major interview of her campaign Tuesday, CNN’s Brianna Keller brought up Sanders’ plan to raise taxes, and asked about Clinton’s economic stance. Clinton, dodging the question, noted, “I will be laying out my own economic policies … I will be making a speech about my economic proposals on Monday. And then I look forward to the debate about them.”
True to her word, she called for more profit-sharing between corporations and their employees, stronger support for unions, higher wages, and closing the gender-based pay gap. Not holding back, she called out Republican economic policy — notably, Jeb Bush saying Americans should work more hours. The overall theme of her speech? Fair growth and increasing income equality in the United States.
