Minority Leader Pelosi is an asset to the Democratic Party. Do Democratic US House members need a new leader? I doubt it.

There are ways to bring along a younger House Leader and perhaps Minority Leader Pelosi should bring the younger members of the Democratic House more to the forefront. There is no profit for Minority Leader Pelosi to put younger members in the background. Experience is important, but, House leadership has to be sensitive to the ambitions of new and younger members.

I also believe Minority Leader Pelosi is an excellent guard of American’s entitlement. She needs to realize younger members of the Democrat’s see the future of retirement differently. That is important and that needs a plank in the Party platform so it also protects entitlements they have already paid into. The Democratic leadership needs to bring interesting ideas of their younger members forward. The future belongs to them, there has to be room for the future in the Democratic platform and there needs to be a voice for their ambitions from among current and successful members.

There are a lot of topics the younger members bring to enhance the strong morality instilled by Minority Leader Pelosi. Those topics include college loans that should not burden Americans all their lives that can ultimately deprive them of SSI and Medicare benefits. Another issue is the support of excellence in teaching future generations. Also at issue is the southern border and the best way to govern it going forward, including clearer and appropriate work for ICE. ICE played a role in human rights violations along that southern border by removing children from their parents. I think the US House needs to pass legislation that clearly defines their jobs without human rights issues. There are health care troubles as well as the empowerment of women.

The US Democratic House has to bring truth to Trump’s lies. Today in walking what he said to the Russians it was stated the tax reform was going to made permanently for the Middle Class and Small Businesses. It was stated as if the Republican tax reform was actually benevolent to the Middle Class and Small Businesses. Those are HUGE lies. Never before in the history of the USA have the wealthy  and Wall Street been so indulged by the USA federal government through tax reform that at the same time places enormous tax burdens on the Middle Class and Small Businesses.
