America has witnessed the dangers that come with shortsightedness, she writes. If we want to ensure prosperity for ourselves and an improved way of life for young Americans, we have to change, starting now. We need to create jobs, turn around our economy, formulate a long-term energy solution, reform immigration policies, and enhance and expand health-care coverage. Yet these important issues have been sidelined by gridlock in a Congress that is too concerned about the next election to worry about the future. The group of Americans who have the most to lose from this dysfunction are the ones least represented in government: America's children. This book is one mother's challenge to her congressional colleagues and to the rest of the nation, to adopt a parent's perspective for doing right by our kids.--From publisher description. 505 0 $a Strengthening the economy (so our children don't have to) -- Safety nets, built to last -- Health care : a right worth fighting for -- A superpower for peace -- We know the drill : it's time to explore alternatives -- Infrastructure powers economic growth -- Kids learn best when parents teach first -- Keeping kids healthy and safe -- Putting the fight back in women's rights -- America's promise to immigrants -- Civil rights : a march without end -- Aiming for sensible policy on guns -- Discourse, not discord -- To belong to something -- Change : what happens next is up to us. 600 10 $a Schultz, Debbie Wasserman. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 21st century. 610 10 $a United States. $b House $b House $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women legislators $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women legislators $z Florida $v Biography. 700 1 $a Fenster, J.
