Bernie Sanders wants to raise the payroll tax on everyone to pay for his paid family and medical leave.

Democrats, please nominate this guy. 

Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT)said his tax increases would “hit everybody” because he would raise the payroll tax to pay for paid family and medical leave.
Sanders said, “I think if you are looking about guaranteeing paid family and medical leave, which every other major country has so that when a mom gives birth she doesn’t have to go back to work in two weeks. Dad or mom can stay home with the kids. That will require a small increase in the payroll tax.”
