We have an obligation to each other to not only push our politicians but to push companies to do right by their workers.
Quote by -Nina Turner
The overflow of big money in politics drowns out the voices of everyday people. That is part of the conundrum in this country: The more money you have the more speech you have. That leaves everyday people out of the equation.
Quote by -Nina Turner
I want people to be mad as hell. Be mad as hell and work toward something. Find an issue and find a candidate that you believe in.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Ohio suffered, like a lot of Midwestern states, under the weight of trade deals that really diminished a lot of good-paying manufacturing jobs; a lot of the blue collar workers in the state are suffering, just like many of their counterparts across the country. I'm not terribly surprised that Mr. Trump won Ohio.
Quote by -Nina Turner
The issues that matter to women also matter to communities... and these issues have a ripple effect all across the country. And the purist sense of the feminist tradition - feminism is not anti-man. It is pro-humanity.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Any Democrat worth their salt that doesn't unequivocally say Medicare-for-all is the way to go? To me, there's something wrong with them.
Quote by -Nina Turner
I am the type of person that, you know, I'm gonna get the work done. If I decide to take on a cause, take on an issue, I'm ride or die.
Quote by -Nina Turner
It is a travesty for anyone who is elected to office, who serves in an elective office, to engage in voter suppression.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Democracy is stronger, is better, is more robust when people participate. We should want to encourage that.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Global warming is a real threat to our communities, to everybody, to everything.
Quote by -Nina Turner
My mother was born into a solidly middle-class family, but, as all too many Americans understand, everything doesn't always go as planned - no matter how hard you work. She died on welfare. Without the support of the state, I shudder to think of where we would have ended up.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Everybody in the working class is important, whether you're black or white and that's what I want them to feel and know from Our Revolution.
Quote by -Nina Turner
If there is a Republican or a Libertarian or Green Party person that believes in Medicare for all, then that's our kind of person.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Ohio is my home, always. I'm a homegirl. Ohio is my home. Ohio is my first love.
Quote by -Nina Turner
The right to vote is an important guarantee by itself, but it is what those votes add up to that matters even more. These votes shape the government under which we live.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Making it harder for the most vulnerable voters to participate in the political process inevitably leads to policies and policymakers that do not represent the interests of all people.
Quote by -Nina Turner
The more Democrats try to abandon the values and policies embodied in our platform, the more we will continue to lose. We can't win by running on incrementalism.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Our country is the richest in the history of the world. We should be working to expand and improve successful programs like Medicare, and offer more to our citizens.
Quote by -Nina Turner
It is imperative that Democrats take a stand and embrace Medicare for All and other progressive policies that address the needs of millions of Americans.
Quote by -Nina Turner
It is the duty of governments to create a pro-voter environment that encourages participation, but it is also the responsibility of citizens to make their voices heard.
Quote by -Nina Turner
If we want to be the big-tent party, if we want to be the party that is seen as the party that really stands up for the working class, we have to welcome people in and not just believe a certain way.
Quote by -Nina Turner
It is my hope that the establishment part of the Democratic Party will heed what the grass roots is saying.
Quote by -Nina Turner
As a female candidate, you always expect that some people will think you are not as capable of being an executive, or that you may be 'too emotional' for office. As an African-American woman, the bar can be even higher.
Quote by -Nina Turner
If someone were lying on the road dying would it matter to you who came to save you? If it was a Democrat or a Republican, would it matter?
Quote by -Nina Turner
Our Revolution has been the keeper of the flame doing the vital work of building a grassroots movement that leverages the people's agenda.
Quote by -Nina Turner
You would think people who call themselves pro-life would want to make sure that our children are educated, that people could work and live a good life, that you can take a vacation every now and then.
Quote by -Nina Turner
I'm interested in running for an office that would allow me the opportunity to work harder and do a better job for the citizens of this state, and I will not rule out any office that gives me that ability.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Our state is great, but it can be greater and I am committed to helping realize that potential.
Quote by -Nina Turner
My family was always there for me, and believe in me whether I have a title or not.
Quote by -Nina Turner
I was director of governmental affairs at the Cleveland school district. I served in the administration of Mayor Michael R. White.
Quote by -Nina Turner
If you care about potholes, you have to vote. If you care about pre-k education, you have to vote. If you care about women's health care, you have to vote.
Quote by -Nina Turner
It hasn't been for a lack of trying. But we really have to analyze in a deeper way why we have these problems - at least at the state level - electing an African-American.
Quote by -Nina Turner
There is no reason why the right Democratic nominee can't win Ohio. President Obama did it twice in 2008 and 2012.
Quote by -Nina Turner
I'll never forget when I was running, when I was knocking on doors for my first office as I served as a Cleveland city councilwoman and to have older men say to me, 'Can you do this and be a wife and a mother?' Excuse me? Women make the world go round. We multitask... But to have that kind of condescending question asked of me in modern times.
Quote by -Nina Turner
Strong communities start at the ballot box - where every eligible Ohioan has the opportunity to make their voice heard.
Quote by -Nina Turner
As the quintessential swing state, Ohio has been on the front lines of battles to restrict access to the vote and make government less transparent. Conservatives know that they can't win without putting a thumb on the scale of electoral outcomes.
