Our fights are her fights
Hillary Clinton is running for president because the deck is stacked
for those at the top and it's holding American families back. She's
spent her life taking on the tough fights and delivering for kids and
families, both at home and around the world. We can count on her to
fight and deliver for us, because our
fights are her fights.
Raising Wages
Hillary believes raising
incomes for hardworking Americans is the defining economic challenge of
our time.
Hillary will measure our nation's economic success by how many families
get ahead and stay ahead – not by how much CEOs make. She will:
• Fight for equal pay for women,
paid family leave, higher wages, and better jobs.
• Invest in infrastructure, clean energy, and
scientific and medical research to create jobs and strengthen our
economy.
Hillary will not let the Republicans rip away the progress we've made
with their out-of-date and out-of-touch agenda, and she won't quit
until you and your family have the opportunity to get ahead and stay
ahead.
Acting on Gun Violence
Hillary believes some fights are too important to give up on – and
tackling gun violence is one of them.
As president, Hillary will fight for commonsense reforms to keep
Americans safe. She will:
• Fight for comprehensive background checks.
• Hold dealers and manufacturers fully
accountable if they endanger Americans.
• Keep guns out of the hands of domestic
abusers, other violent criminals, and the severely mentally ill.
Hillary understands gun ownership is part of the fabric of many
law-abiding communities. But as a nation, we cannot accept 33,000 gun
deaths each year as normal.
"Equal pay isn't a women's issue. It's a family issue. It's
an economic issue."

Reducing Health Care Costs
Hillary believes affordable health care is a basic human right-but for
too many families, out-of-pocket medical costs are growing faster than
their wages.
Hillary plans to build on the Affordable Care Act in order to:
• Reduce cost-sharing for ordinary doctor
visits.
• Create a new tax credit for Americans facing
excessive costs.
• Limit out-of-pocket and drug costs so that
families don't have to choose between paying their mortgage and buying
the medicine they need.
As president, Hillary will fight tirelessly to defend Obamacare against
Republican efforts to repeal it. She will protect the 18 million
Americans who now have coverage through the law and continue the work
to improve it and curb costs. You've fought hard for this, and she
understands we can't turn back now.
Making College Affordable
Hillary believes we need to make a quality education affordable and
available to everyone willing to work for it, without saddling them
with decades of debt.
Hillary's comprehensive plan will:
• Ensure that no Iowa student will need to take
out a loan to pay for tuition, books, and fees at a fouryear in-state
public college – and students at community colleges will receive free
tuition.
• Reduce overall costs, including living
expenses, by thousands of dollars with support from schools, states,
and the federal government.
• Enable students and families who have debt
already to refinance their loans, and ensure that they never have to
pay more than 10 percent of what they make.
Hillary understands how important affordable college is to your future
and your families. That's why her plan ensures costs won't be a barrier
and debt won't hold anyone back.
"Hillary's New College Compact will make a real difference
for me and my family. As a student parent, it would mean everything if
getting an education didn't come with decades of debt."

"Republicans keep trying to knock Hillary down, but she never
lets them stop her. She just keeps fighting for kids and families.
Whether it's equal pay for women or affordable health care, you name a
tough fight and she's taking it on.
I'm fighting for HIllary because she's spent her life
fighting for us."
