Sanders emphasized the dire state of the U.S. economy, asserting that many Americans are struggling. He argued for a government that serves all citizens, not just the billionaire class, pointing to the successful COVID response as proof that effective governance is possible when there's political will.
In a powerful assertion for campaign authenticity, Sanders remarked, "Billionaires in both parties should not be able to buy elections, including primary elections!" He underscored the need for a political environment free from the influence of money.
By advocating for broad social initiatives, Sanders highlighted priorities like healthcare access, drug cost reductions, wage increases, and education equity. He stressed the importance of guaranteeing higher education for every American.
Ending his speech, Sanders made a strong appeal for collective action against both domestic inequality and international conflicts, insisting on the enactment of populist economic policies and an immediate cease-fire in Gaza.
