Summary
Border: As President, Kennedy is going to end the humanitarian crisis, starting with its most immediate cause — an uncontrolled border.
Cost of Living: People who work hard should be able to afford a decent life. That is the guiding principle of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s economic policies.
Environment: Clean it Up! Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spent most of his career as an environmental lawyer, suing big polluters and government agencies that failed to enforce the law.
Honest Government: For the People. A democratic government is supposed to be of, by, and for the people. But government institutions have betrayed our trust.
Civil Liberties: Restore our Rights. Our administration will make it a top priority to protect and restore the fundamental civil liberties, enshrined in the Bill of Rights, that hold the essence of what America can be.
Higher Education: Addressing student debt.
Labor: Strong Support of Labor Rights. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a strong supporter of labor rights, going back to his youthful involvement with Cesar Chavez. He believes that capitalism can function only in the presence of a strong labor movement.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has suspended his campaign (8/23/2024).
In my heart, I no longer believe I have a realistic path to electoral victory in the face of relentless, systemic censorship and media control. I cannot in good conscience ask my staff and volunteers to keep working long hours, or ask my donors to keep giving, when I cannot honestly tell them we have a path to the White House.
Three great causes drove me to enter this race in the first place. These are the principal causes that persuaded me to leave the Democratic Party, and then as an Independent, and now throw my support to President Trump.
