It’s quite simple. We strongly believe in the following 5 points:

* WPA-style jobs program — create jobs by CREATING JOBS!
* Medicare available for all
* Repeal Hyde Amendment, vote no on any bill with Stupak or Nelson-like language
* Repeal DOMA, DADT, support gay marriage
* U.S. out of Iraq and Afghanistan
