This is not the first time that Banks has discussed the need to fulfill the American dream for the country’s working class; However, in his speech, he noticed that the humble origins of the family and their work in a local factory help them live the American dream.
“You See, I Grew Up in through Park in Columbia City, Indiana – A Small Town of Less Than 10,000 People. HENH AND WE LIVH AND INDH AND WE LIVAH AND INDH AND WE LIVAH AND DEM IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, AND IND, WE LIVH AND TO’S, AND IND.

“When I was growing, that factory provided good rooms and opportunities for so many families in our community. Duration of the three shifts, the parking lot overflowed as the workers obtained a salary good enough to keep their families our American dream, “he made.
“Those were exactly the type of jobs that allowed my parents to put food on the table and raise their children. As many Americans as my parents, the American dream is not just a concept that experts in the tango of thought write their him. “” “” “” “” “”
However, Banks said that “well -paid factory works” have disappeared as the “result of bad policy elections that put corporate foreign interests ahead of everyday Americans.”
He said: “The decades of America the last policies have emptied our industries and crushed our workers. Wall Street sent our factories abroad and stripped our colleagues to get fast profits.”

“They opened our borders, reduced salaries for workers like my father and, as a result, cheap labor flooded,” Banks said.
Banks said it was beaten by the point of President Donald Trump during his speech of the day of release that the presidents on both sides of the hall have ignored the harmful effects of other countries that take advantage of US commercial policies.

“President Trump understands as us, we cannot pass the American dream to the next generation if we let China dominate us. He is the first president of my life in calling China a threat to the American lifestyle,” Banks said.
He said that letting China enter the World Trade Organization (WTO) was the “worst economic error in my life”, citing that China has stolen American technology, copied American products and has built its industries using little ethical slave wages.
“Duration my time in the house, I set out to face China,” Banks said. “Only a president in my life has understood this threat. In the United States Senate, I intend to help President Trump face China and put the United States first.”
Banks said that Trump America First Commercial policies have already given results for US workers, and said Honda will build his civic in Indiana instead of Mexico, General Motors will bring the production of trucks to Fort Wayne, Indiana and Eli Facty and Eliuf and Eliuf.
Banks said Republicans should meet to fight for US workers.
