Editorial on Bernie Sanders

Bernie Sanders is a famous American politician who has been the longest serving independent in the U.S congressional history. He was born and raised in New York City. As a student, he was involved in the Congress for Racial Equality and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. As an independent, he accomplished many things. He made his distinguished career as an elected official and a social activist. He has provided his services as a senator, a mayor, and a congressional representative. He spent a large time of his life as a public servant representing the middle-class and lower class American people. One of the greatest achievements of Bernie is his votes against wars. He was of the view that wars lead to huge destruction and disasters, and this prediction of his was correct. He established a housing land-trust known as the Burlington Community Land trust for the affordable housing of people. As mayor of Burlington, he ran a tight ship on a tight budget, grew the economy, and attracted local businesses by creating trade associations, giving new entrepreneurs start-up funding, and offering technical assistance. During his time in the House of Representatives, Bernie passed more amendments than any other representative serving with him.His greatest works included expanding free health care, reducing the cost of college, cracking down on child labor, holding the IRS accountable, increasing winter heating funding for the poor, and fighting against the corporate welfare. In the Senate, Bernie has been no less productive than in the House. He protected the troops, greened the government, restricted the bailout to protect U.S. workers, helped veterans’ kids, exposed corruption in the military-industrial complex, and supported treating autism in military health care. He is a ranking member of the Senate Committee on the Budget and serves on the Committees for Children and Families, Veterans Affairs, and Clean Air and Nuclear Safety. He is one of the most thorough, effective, and wise men in the United States ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"Ox40Enx5","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Freeman, 2016)","plainCitation":"(Freeman, 2016)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":238,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/zQiT8c1c/items/ASV2QEDM"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/zQiT8c1c/items/ASV2QEDM"],"itemData":{"id":238,"type":"webpage","title":"Here’s A LONG List Of Bernie Sanders’ Accomplishments (WITH CITATIONS)","container-title":"AddictingInfo","abstract":"There are plenty of people spreading the lie that Bernie Sanders hasn't accomplished anything.
