Synopsis

America is suffering from a dangerous attack of short-sightedness, outspoken Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz writes in For the Next Generation. If they want to ensure prosperity for themselves and an improved way of life for the next generation, they have to change, starting now. Not only do they need a long-term energy solution but they are faced with a critical moment in healthcare as well as sustained economic distress. Yet, such important issues have been sidelined by bitter alliances, personal vendettas, gridlock, and a Congress too concerned about the next election to worry about 2025 or 2030 - at what cost? The cost comes down to a constituency not yet represented by their legislative body: America's children. For the Next Generation will be a call-to-action urging America and their typically dysfunctional Congress to engage in dialogue that fosters change so when today's children are adults they won't be burdened with the same problems.
