Part 1 ECONOMIC HOPE Diminished
Diminished through record-breaking debt, unchecked spending, slanted tax policy, and the offshoring of American jobs.
Part 2 NATIONAL SECURITY Undermined
Undermined through Iraq war intelligence failures, unfunding of first responders, overcommitment of forces, and the neglect of growing nuclear threats.
Part 3 EDUCATION Unfunded
Unfunded through direct cuts, unfunded federal mandates like No Child Left Behind, sharp tax revenue drops for state education budgets, and college aid reductions.
Part 4 HEALTH CARE Inaccessible
Inaccessible due to double-digit annual cost jumps, shifting of costs to employees, cuts and proposed block-granting of Medicaid, and no plan to help the uninsured.
Part 5 ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH Deteriorating
Deteriorating through aggressive rollbacks to clean air and water programs, expanded mining and toxic emissions allowances, and policy reversals on climate change
Part 6 PRIVACY, JUSTICE & LIBERTY Threatened
Threatened by changes to U.S. law under the Patriot Act(s) which eliminate key checks on executive powers, and do broad, immediate damage to the Bill of Rights.
