Warren to run for president

-

Washington, D.C.: US Senator Elizabeth Warren is running for president, adding a fierce advocate of economic populism to an already crowded field of Democratic hopefuls.

Since being elected to the Senate in 2012, the Harvard Law School professort­urnedpolit­ician has stood at the most progressiv­e end of the Democratic party, advocating higher taxes on the wealthy and consumer protection­s.

Her platform includes a tax on the richest 75,000 Americans. — DPA
