William B. - Orrington, ME

You may be becoming a progressive if the images of trapped and suffering citizens in New Orleans disturbed you. You ask yourself, what has happened to my country, when you hear of another combat death, you read of another 450 workers to loose their jobs, news about cuts in programs for health care, college education, job training, food stamps, and veterans’ benefits. Progressives believe in a society based on democratic values of economic fairness, social justice, and equal opportunity for all. Progressives support and elect public servants that promote bold fresh ideas that fight for the rights of all families.
