Tom Steyer talked about not just undoing the tax cuts that Republicans passed in 2017 but going further than that: 'What we need to do is to undo the tax breaks that have been given for two generations to rich Americans and big corporations'
Andrew Yang, who is Asian American, is asked what message the mostly white panel -- after the exit of Sen. Kamala Harris, and Sen. Cory Booker's failure to make the cut for the debate -- sends to voters.
Mr. Yang responded that it is "both an honor and a disappointment to be the lone candidate of color on the stage tonight. I miss Kamala, I miss Cory -- although I think Cory will be back!" He then pivoted to his core policy proposal --a "freedom dividend" promising a $1,000 a month payment to all Americans.
The Democratic National Committee's debate thresholds, which include a requirement to meet certain thresholds of unique campaign contributors, have been criticized for marginalizing candidates of color.
