There are too many, and too inter-related to really pick one out, but I agree with others to mostly continue Biden policies. As a moderate, he did start a lot of good things but it all takes too many years, too much money. We need to keep pushing.

My first thought is the environment. We’ve done so much damage for so long and still keep pushing back. The IRA was huge but barely scratched the surface. There is so much that needs to be done and time is running short

But you can’t work on the environment while being the biggest fossil fuel producer in history

And trains are such a key part of decarbonizing transportation but can take a generation or more

And you’re not getting anything done without fixing the courts

And somehow we need to unstick large infrastructure projects like transmission lines and power generation

And no one can afford this with the current wealth inequality and excessive cost of homes
