US Senatorial Candidate Obaidul Huq Pirjda

California and the entire nation, including the Senate have been gridlocked due to pandemic and post-pandemic catastrophe. In order to help alleviate economic squeeze and gridlock in the senate, the Californians and our nation need an honest, candid, eloquent and bold leadership. I am putting forward the following objectives and goals for which I would be fighting incessantly, are as follows:

1. To help Californians so that the grocery, gasoline and power (electricity) prices do not go up, rather to make sure the prices go down.

2. Enhancing child credit to parents of all kids. Also raising minimum wage up to $20 per hour.

3. Expanding health care for all citizens, healthcare is not a pity or empathy of someone, rather it is a right of all citizens.

4. Help people getting out of home and get to work, and not to scare people anymore and help combating COVID-19 vigorously.

5. Making debt free college a reality for middle-class and low-income parents.

6. Making homeless shelters so that no Californians remain homeless.

7. Protecting Social Security and Medicare, also enhancing Social Security and Medicare benefits for all senior citizens.

8. More and more infrastructure investment to create job and strengthening the economy. Also tax credit for employers, who hire more unemployed veterans, First-Time responders and women.

13. Protecting voting rights, passing Freedom to Vote act and help declare voting day a public holiday.

14. Protecting worker rights and strengthening labor movements and unions.

15. Ending all kinds of discrimination including discrimination against whites, blacks and other colors or national origin. Help making laws so that none would be discriminated for his/her skin or color.
