“Steyer’s agenda aims to take on corporate corruption and the unchecked capitalism that has hijacked our democracy for the last 40 years, and finally reverse the Republican policies that have allowed big corporations to write their own rules that reward shareholders at the expense of American workers,” his campaign said in the release.

Steyer, a billionaire philanthropist, calls to repeal Citizens United, the 2010 Supreme Court case that allowed for unlimited spending on campaigns. He also called to restructure the Federal Election Commission and “make it easier to vote.”

Steyer also said he backs raising the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour.

In his agenda, Steyer reiterated his support for a wealth tax that would place a 1 percent tax on those whose net worth is above $32 million and said he would repeal “the Trump tax cuts.”
