“Enough is enough, we want that wealth to come back to the working families."

Sanders called for a federal government jobs program to rebuild the country's decaying infrastructure. He also wants a higher minimum wage, pay equity for women, guaranteed sick leave and vacation, and free tuition at every college and university in the United States.

Sanders said people need to realize that we are the richest most powerful nation in the world and can afford to do what's right for its people.
