Refer to Franklin Delano Roosevelt's 1944 State of the Union address where he advocated a second U.S. Bill of Rights, a U.S. Economic Bill of Rights. Search FDR 1944 State of the Union. This would be the essence of our economic justice goals. Also, refer to United Nations Universalist Declaration of Human Rights where Eleanor Roosvelt as Chair of United Nations Human Rights Commission led to its adoption in 1948 using the U.S. Economic Bill of Rights or Second Bill of Rights advocated by her late husband as the basis. Additionally refer to and search "FDR's Unfinished 'Second Bill of Rights' - And Why We Need It Now" for a full political analysis in historical perspective.
