Seize all assets of the rich that put them over 100mil in estimated wealth.
Redistribute that wealth through a UBI that perpetually redistributes all wealth over 100mil.
End citizens united, end the filibuster, end the electoral college, expand SCOTUS to include 1 ELECTED rep from each state.
Force employers to offer union access to all employees if an employee ran union isn't already available.
Codify Rowe v. Wade and Obergefell v. Hodges into federal law.
Not all states deserve representation. Maybe the top 10 states in terms of academic achievement get a seat on SCOTUS. Elected SCOTUS judges is a good step though.
I've always felt we should have one judge from each court district, voted on by judges from that district. Districts already are equal population size, cover the entire country, and judges are better able to determine if someone's qualified on law matters than the general public, which is important to prevent a populist making promises they can't deliver on since these people would know the limits of judges power and responsibility
