Steve Cortes, founder of the League of American Workers (LAW), appeared on the Grand Canyon Times Podcast to discuss a new poll conducted for his organization, which found that only 18% of Arizona voters say that the American Dream is “still attainable.”
That poll, conducted for LAW by North Star Opinion Research, also found that 78% of Arizonans now say that the American Dream is “out of reach.”
Additional points discussed on this podcast:
Cortes Discusses “Patriotic Populism”: Cortes discussed his advocacy for what he calls, “patriotic populism,” focusing on national sovereignty, diffusion of power, and populist economics. He criticized the concentration of economic and political power in the U.S., particularly under the Obama and Biden administrations, and the dominance of “Big Tech” and large corporations.
Critique of the “Green Agenda” and Big Business: Cortes said that the so-called “green agenda” is less about environmentalism and more about benefiting large corporations and special interests. He said that policies like California's electric vehicle mandates are “impractical” and “serve the interests of a business-political alliance rather than the environment.”
Connection Between National Sovereignty and Economic Populism: Cortes said there is alignment between national sovereignty and economic populism, emphasizing the importance of protecting national borders and criticizing the Biden administration for its handling of immigration. Cortes said that illegal immigration and “globalization” have led to declining real wages for American workers.
Impact of Lockdowns and Changing Work Culture: Cortes discussed the long-term effects of the “COVID-19” lockdowns, including a shift in work culture and an increase in people relying on disability and other government benefits. Cortes said there is a declining respect for work and he said there is a need to encourage people to rejoin the workforce.
Cortes was a spokesman and advisor to President Donald Trump’s 2016 and 2020 campaigns. He previously traded global currencies and interest rates for 25 years for large international hedge funds. He has been an on-air broadcaster for CNBC, Fox News, and CNN.
He founded LAW in 2022 with the mission of promoting "policies to protect the priorities of laborers."
