americans, afghan allies, women and children to make sure that they have safe passage on to, you know, into some place, some country where they will be safe and secure. what is our obligation to those folks for this country? how, you know, how many of them should be provided safe passage to the united states. well, i agree with peter. we work together. we just had on and we have to, one, make sure that we honor our commitments. keep our word. and i believe we must lift the refugee camp. we are going to have to have a cap that allows for more refugees to come into the united states of america. we also need to move very quickly with our international allies to make sure that they are putting forth plans for refugee resettlement. because we cannot abandon these individuals. and we have to make sure that they all are transported out of
healthy. and let s just remember that donald trump and melania we like to act as if melania wasn t part of it or look at her with rose-colored glasses, but they perpetuated this birther myth and lie and this racist attack and now donald trump jr. is perpetuating this racist attack as well. and i m not calling them racist. i m just saying they do racist things. and so what you have to do now is understand that you have to fight back against these attacks, but then even more so, you just have to make sure that you put forth platforms and plans to show what you re going to do for the black community. i mean, that s the pivot point. i think that all 20 candidates coming to say that this was wrong and calling it out is simply the baseline. that s why i m not someone who is clapping and cheering for that. i think doing more than that and actually showing what you re going to do for actual black people in this country is more important. she s going to beat back that racism, put forth plans
we ve got a variety of proposals. not only the 4% surcharge which i call the fair share surcharge. the buffet rule which would have a minimum tax rate for people making more than $1 million, limiting deductions to 28% with a charitable exception. going after a lot of the subsidies that, for example, still subsidize the oil and gas industry about $6 billion a year while we have to move toward a clean renewable energy future. so i have put forth plans, paid family leave, tuition, debt-free tuition for public colleges. capping prescription drug costs and much more. it would cost about $100 billion a year, all of which i pay for. in contrast, senator sanders has some very big ideas, but hasn t told anybody how he would pay for them. he promised he would roll out his tax plans before the iowa
incomes over $5 million. and i believe that that would raise about $150 billion over ten years. does that go far enough in addressing income inequality? well, we ve got a variety of proposals. not only the 4% surcharge, which i call the fair share surcharge, the so-called buffett rule which would have a minimum tax rate for people making more than $1 million, limiting deductions to 28% with a charitable exception, going after a lot of the subsidies that, for example, still subsidize the oil and gas industry, about $6 billion a year, while we have to move toward a clean, renewable energy future. so i have put forth plans, paid family leave, tuition debt-free tuition for public colleges, capping prescription drug costs, and much more. and it would cost about $100
clean, renewable energy future. i have put forth plans, paid family leave, tuition, debt-free tuition for public colleges, tapping prescription drug costs and much more. and it would cost about $100 billion a year, all of which i pay for. in contrast, senator sanders has very big ideas but he hasn t yet told anybody how he would pay for them. he had promised that he would roll out his tax plans before the iowa caucus on february 1st. well, if you wait too long nobody will have a chance to see them or analyze them and so, i am very clear about what i would do and how i would pay for it. another point of conflict between you and senator sanders is on gun policy. uh-huh. we watched this very emotional event that you were involved in where this mom whgç lost two children to gun violence got up and spoke. right. it was heartbreaking to hear her. it sounds like she lost her children to criminals.
