Sen. Sanders and Rep. Keith Ellison rally for jobs
Several hundred people attended a rally today organized by Good Jobs Nation. Bernie Sanders, Keith Ellison, and others addressed the crowd of union organizers and activists. “It is not a radical idea to say that if you work 40 hours a week, you should not be living in poverty!” Sanders thundered. RT’s Anya Parampil spoke with Ellison, who discussed his failed bid to oust Nancy Pelosi in the Congressional leadership, as well as recent smears by wealthy right-wing Democrats accusing him of anti-Semitism.
