- Lowering costs for Wisconsin families starts with making the economy work for everyone, not just those at the top. That means taking real action to reduce everyday expenses like housing, healthcare, childcare, and energy, while protecting working and middle-class families from higher taxes. At the same time, we must ensure the wealthiest individuals and large corporations pay their fair share by closing tax loopholes and ending special treatment that lets them avoid contributing what they owe. When the rich pay their fair share, Wisconsin can invest in strong schools, safe infrastructure, and affordable services that lower costs and improve quality of life for people across the state.
- Fixing the broken two-party system requires ending extreme partisanship and putting voters before parties. This means encouraging ranked-choice voting to give voters more choice and reduce “us vs. them” politics, while pushing for fair, independent redistricting so elections are competitive and voters choose politicians—not the other way around. It also requires supporting campaign finance reforms that limit the influence of party machines and special interests, and promoting transparency so Wisconsinites know who is influencing decisions.
- Practical results that matter begin with building a strong economy by supporting small businesses and family farms with smart economic policies and investing in job training and apprenticeships aligned with Wisconsin’s key industries. This also means strengthening communities by ensuring equality for everyone—not just the privileged,— through improved access to affordable healthcare using cooperative solutions, and by strengthening schools with a focus on real outcomes rather than ideological fights. At the same time, a strong democracy requires protecting voting access while maintaining election security and restoring trust in government by lowering the temperature of political rhetoric and raising accountability for those in power.
A fair economy means asking millionaires to pay their fair share through a responsible millionaire's tax, while using those revenues to invest in education and Wisconsin roads. I would like to strengthen family farms by expanding access to credit, protecting farmland, and supporting local agriculture, so farmers can compete and pass their operations on to the next generation. We also need to make housing more affordable by increasing the supply of attainable homes, supporting first-time homebuyers and renters, and partnering with local communities to reduce costs so every Wisconsin family has a safe, stable place to live.
