Interview: Bishop William Barber "Democrats Deserted Working Poor".

800 Americans a day "are dying from poverty".

There are 140m poor & low-wage adults in the US, "43% of our country":

30% of white ppl

60% of Black ppl

68% of Latino ppl

68% of Indigenous ppl

Everywhere a living wage was on the ballot, Dems won.

In 2024, Trump received 2-3m fewer votes than in 2020; Harris-Biden 13-14m fewer.
