Delaney: ‘I’m Different from Everyone Else on this Stage,’ ‘I Started Two Businesses’

EXCERPT:

DELANEY: “You know, I’m very different than everyone else here on this stage. Prior to being in Congress, I was an entrepreneur. I started two businesses. I created thousands of jobs. I spent my whole career helping small to mid-sized businesses all over the country. 5,000 of them, I supported. The Obama Administration gave me an award for lending to disadvantaged communities. I know how to create Jobs. We need a short-term strategy, which is to put money in the pockets of workers with Earned Income Tax Credit, raising the minimum wage and creating paid family leave, and then we need to have a long-term strategy to make sure this country is competitive and we’re creating jobs everywhere in this country."
