I've always cared about education, and I worked with Senator Schumer on making several thousand dollars of college tuition tax deductible. That will help a lot of your middle class families make college more affordable.

I strongly support tax relief for the middle class.

The answers to feeding hungry children is not fewer dollars to feed hungry children, it's to do more. It is to raise the minimum wage. It is to increase, not dismantle, the earned income tax credit. It is to make college more affordable for more middle class families, not more expensive. These are the things that grow our middle class.

I'm painfully middle class.

Middle class families are struggling to send their sons and daughters to school. For many Americans, a college education is essential to future success.

Big government doesn't help the middle class, it buries it.
