The following is a statement from Shawn Sebastian, Director of Organizing at RuralOrganizing:
The Presidential debate presented a clear choice between two possible futures: One that is led by competence, compassion, and plans for middle class Americans, and another that is hunched, angry, old, incoherent, and only cares about himself.
Only one candidate in tonight’s debate cares about issues that matter to rural Americas, and that’s clearly Kamala Harris From health care and housing prices to abortion rights and the climate crisis, the Vice President has a clear vision for our future that empowers rural people to achieve the American dream.
Rural communities need lower prices, higher wages, and a better quality of life. Kamala Harris spoke to a better possible future. Donald Trump had nothing to offer rural communities except his usual rants and divisiveness.
The mission of RuralOrganizing.org is to rebuild a rural America that is empowered, thriving, and equitable. Follow us on Twitter @RuralOrganizing.
