Hillary gave a powerful and progressive speech. She talked to the hearts of all people. She talked to all Americans, young and old, white and black, regardless of religious belief or sexual orientation. Hillary put forward a concrete agenda showing how she can improve people's everyday lives. She put forward the politics of hope and change over those of hate and discrimination. We welcome the proposals that strongly reinforce fiscal and social justice and fight tax evasion in particular, on how to widen health and child-care rights, how to secure equal access to education throughout all social classes, how to guarantee equal pay for equal work, gender equality, women and minorities' rights. A social agenda following the progressive approach outlined by Bernie Sanders whose contribution in terms of politics, backing and passion will be vital in this election. We welcome Hillary's commitment to continue fighting against climate change and for sustainable development. We also welcome her commitment to fight tax avoidance, a political priority we share.
