Senator Sanders spoke at a time when some of his supporters are pushing for him to form a new political party ahead of the 2. White House. Today we spend the hour airing Bernie Sanders’ address. SEN. BERNIESANDERS: I want to thank many, many of you for your work on our presidential campaign. You understood something that the establishment, the pundits and the corporate media did not know and still do not know. And that is that the American people are profoundly sick and tired of establishment politics and establishment economics.

As Rose. Ann just said, the question all over this country that people are asking themselves is: When will my life get better? And it ain’t gonna get better through establishment economics or establishment politics, that’s for sure. At a time of massive—and vulgar—income and wealth inequality, and the movement of our country toward an oligarchy, where a handful of billionaires control our economy, our political life and much of the media, you understood that the American people want a government that represents all of us, not just the 1 percent. And that’s what all of us are fighting for, and I thank you very much for all that you have done, are doing and will do. And, by the way, Jane and I just returned from the U. K. the other day. And I want to tell you—want to tell you what you already know, is that the movement for economic, social, racial and environmental justice is not just growing here in the U.

S., it is growing worldwide. All over the world—all over the world, people are asking: How does it happen that, globally, the top 1 percent now owns more wealth than the bottom 9. How does it happen that the eight wealthiest people on this planet own more wealth than the bottom half of the world’s population—3. And just the other day—just the other day, in the U.

K., against all of the predictions, the Labour Party there won 3. And they won those seats not by moving to the right, not by becoming more conciliatory; they won those seats by standing up to the ruling class of the U. K. And all of us congratulate Jeremy Corbyn and his team for what they’ve accomplished.

This evening, what I want to do is give you, as I see it, some good news. I want to be honest and tell you about the bad news that I see. But I’m going to conclude with very good news. Now, the good news—the good news is that, together, because of the grassroots efforts of millions of Americans, from coast to coast, taking on the entire political establishment, our campaign was able to win 2. Democratic primary, over 1. Together—together, in virtually every state, in virtually, I think, every single state, we won the votes of young people under 4.

Latino and Asian- American and Native American. We won those votes by overwhelming numbers, and we ended up, I believe, getting almost twice as many votes as Clinton and Trump combined, among young people. And what that means—what that means—and please do not forget this—is that our ideas and our progressive vision, we are the future of this country. AUDIENCE: Bernie!

SEN. BERNIESANDERS: That’s right, 2. But, most importantly, we may have lost the election in 2. And we are continuing to win that battle. And that is, brothers and sisters, no small thing. Because of the grassroot efforts of activists like you throughout this country, we have in recent years made enormous progress in advancing the progressive agenda. And I want all of you—you know, sometimes what we all do is we look at today, and we say, “Well, you know, that’s kind of the way it always was.” That’s not the case. Ideas that just a few years ago seemed radical and unattainable are now today widely supported, and, in fact, some of them are being implemented as we speak.

And I want you to appreciate what together we have accomplished. Don’t take this for granted. Five years ago, not a long time ago, with a federal minimum wage of $7. Bernie, you know, we’ve got to raise that minimum wage to 1. You are nuts. You can’t double the minimum wage at one time.

Can’t be done.” In fact, three years ago, what the Democratic leadership was talking about was $1. That was then. Today, federal legislation for a $1. I introduced in the Senate a few weeks ago, now has—now has 3. Senate and—and 1. House of Representatives. And $1. 5- an- hour legislation is being passed by city councils and state legislatures all across America.

My understanding is that right here, in the state of Illinois, a $1. Governor, sign that bill! All over in Illinois and all over this country, the working people of this nation need a raise. And what we are saying, as loudly and clearly as we can, is that if you work 4.

But it’s not just a minimum wage and the fight for 1. I want you to think about this: Five years ago, if we were here, the majority political sentiment in this country, among Republicans and many Democrats, was that our trade policies were just great.

What was the problem with NAFTA and PNTR with China or the TPP? So what if those trade policies cost us millions of decent jobs and drove us into a downward spiral, a race to the bottom? Our trade policies were great. That was five years ago.

Today, the American people, all across the political spectrum, are saying that we need new trade agreements that work for workers, not just the CEOs of large corporations. And I want to thank all of you for creating the movement that defeated the Trans- Pacific Partnership. But it’s not just trade that we’ve had an impact on.

Today, the idea of a trillion- dollar investment to create up to 1. Just three years ago—not even five years ago, three years ago—I proposed a trillion- dollar investment, got virtually no support, had to cut it in half. But today, all across the political spectrum, people understand that we need to repair our broken bridges, our roads, our water systems, our wastewater plants, our levees, our dams, our airports. We need to build affordable housing. Five years ago, you talked about paid family and medical leave, people didn’t even know what you were talking about.

But today, not only is support growing for paid family and medical leave, but the very radical concept that women in the year 2.
