"We are charting a new way forward — forward to a future with a strong and growing middle class, because we know a strong middle class has always been critical to America’s success. And building that middle class will be a defining goal of my presidency. And I’ll tell you, this is personal for me. The middle class is where I come from. My mother kept a strict budget. We lived within our means, yet we wanted for little. And she expected us to make the most of the opportunities that were available to us and to be grateful for them, because, as she taught us, opportunity is not available to everyone. That’s why we will create what I call an opportunity economy — an opportunity economy where everyone has the chance to compete and a chance to succeed — whether you live in a rural area, small town, or big city."

"We are not going back to when Donald Trump tried to cut Social Security and Medicare. We are not going back to when he tried to get rid of the Affordable Care Act, when insurance companies could deny people with preexisting conditions. We are not going to let him eliminate the Department of Education that funds our public schools. We are not going to let him end programs like Head Start that provide preschool and childcare for our children. America, we are not going back."
Kamala Harris"I’m running to fight for Medicare for All, universal pre-K, debt-free college & more. To guarantee middle-class families a pay increase of up to $500/mo with the largest working-class tax cut in decades — paid for by reversing this Admin’s gifts to big corporations & the top 1%."
Kamala Harris"Who of us has not had that situation, where youve got to wait for approval and the doctor says, well, I dont know if your insurance company is going to cover this, Lets eliminate all of that. Lets move on."

Kamala Harris"Along with Aunt Mary, Aunt Lenore was my mothers closest confidante. I also cherish the memory of one of my mothers mentors. Howard, a brilliant endocrinologist who had taken her under his wing. When I was a girl he gave me a pearl necklace that hed brought back from a trip to Japan. (Pearls have been one of my favorite forms of jewelry ever since!)"
