There should be no federal appropriations approved until Congress can guarantee protection of the social safety net, to wit:
A national #UBI
Single-payer Universal healthcare
The #FederalJobsGuarantee
Tuition-free college (Or at least a guarantee of full tuition reimbursement)
Housing guarantee
If Republicans wanted to pass a #BigBeautifulBill, they would have included #UniversalBasicIncome or #UniversalBasicCapital and the #FederalJobsGuarantee as well as guarantees for single-payer universal healthcare and individualised universal education
“In Congress, Elijah Manley will introduce and fight for a Federal Jobs Guarantee, because everyone who wants to work should be able to do so.”

We need a #FederalJobsGuarantee, #Medicare4All and an unconditional #UniversalBasicIncome -- THAT, in my estimation, would be the most beautiful bill Congress could ever produce. #OneBigBeautifulAct
Health insurance is inherently antithetical to healthcare. It's become ever more clear that the ONLY VIABLE SOLUTION is a nationalised #singlepayer #UniversalHealthCare system, a #federaljobsguarantee and #UniversalBasicIncome #UBI #FreeLuigi #InLuigiWeTrust
Is there any way to convince the Trump Regime to reverse course and institute some progressive employment policies like a #federaljobsguarantee and #universalbasicincome?
"Right to Work" means a #federaljobsguarantee, not cutting workers' rights.
When everyone has a job, everyone can build, own or rent their own home. A #FederalJobsGuarantee and a national #UniversalBasicIncome combined will END homelessness and improve health. Ending homelessness naturally brings relief and lowers the incidence of stress-related disease and disorders.
I believe EVERY American should be able to get a job if they want one, the best job they can find and that gives them a sense of fulfillment. Having a chance to get hired for a job just isn't enough, there must be a #FederalJobsGuarantee.
#FederalJobsGuarantee will guarantee everyone who wants a job will have a job, not just a chance to get hired. Job training programs will assess and provide training that fits needs and desires of individual Americans beyond "this will be your job".

We don't need #TrumpTariffs, we need the #FederalJobsGuarantee, #MedicareForAll and #universalbasicincome !
"Why not be bold and ask for a 0-hour workweek?"
The question presumes that Human beings are inherently lazy and don't want to work. To put this in the proper perspective, we should ask the following question --
"Which came first, money or Homo Sapiens?"
#32HourWorkweek #FederalJobsGuarantee #UBI
I want three bills --
✅ Single-payer #MedicareForAll
✅ #UniversalBasicIncome because #AmericaNeedsUBI and poverty is the most expensive disease we have
✅ #FederalJobsGuarantee because "Right To Work" should mean employers find jobs to fit the candidate.
Congress should pass at a minimum these policies:
- #UniversalBasicIncome
- #SinglePayer #UniversalHealthcare at no cost to the taxpayer other than taxes
- #TaxReform to make taxes work for the everyday taxpayer
- #FederalJobsGuarantee to ensure EVERY American has a job
(continued)
We're only where we are now because we didn't pass #UniversalHealthcare or #UniversalBasicIncome or a #FederalJobsGuarantee bill.
I'd love to see AOC run as an Independent on Bernie Sanders' 2016 Platform. #UniversalHealthcare #TuitionFreeHigherEd #AffordableHousingForAll #FederalJobsGuarantee #ImmigrationReform #StopEndlessWars
So, basically, a guaranteed-hire job program, yes? #FederalJobsGuarantee?
I could tell that Team #UBI made a much stronger case than #UniversalBasicEmployment, your logic was much stronger, but I think there may be a way to employ both in tandem. I think that Bernie Sanders has a point with his #FederalJobsGuarantee proposal, but it can be combined with a UBI plan.

My policy suggestions --
Hybrid public/remote education
Creating a United States Border Guard
Universal Basic Income #UBI
Ending political parties in the United States
