Poor children are asked to deal with poor conditions so that millioners and billionaires can have tax cuts according to Marian Wright Edelman
According to Marian Wright Edelman, people need to stand up and insist that political leaders are standing up for children and that overall we need to help and not hurt children. She adds that poor children shouldn’t be abused, hungry, and neglected, in order for people who don’t need the money to keep it, for example people who are millioners and billioners that are getting tax cuts instead of giving the money to these children.
