- I believe in an America that provides women full access to the opportunities, respect, and choices that men have in regard to their health, bodies, work, education, mental well-being, economic prospects, societal freedom, and time.
- I believe in an intelligent and socially responsible America that can celebrate wealth without perpetuating and villainizing poverty. I believe we can maintain high infrastructure standards with clean, safe technology. I believe we can create the conditions for job growth. I also believe that everyone can have equal and affordable access to these jobs, supported by adequate training and qualifications to not only find employment but keep it.
- I believe that the greatest country on earth must provide affordable healthcare, housing, and nutritious food options to everyone. We should prioritize community focused social services, a public health approach to curbing gun violence, and targeted resources to educate, rehabilitate, and end substance abuse.
Proper reintegration of military service members to civilian life with a one-year transition prior to discharge.
Expanding broadband internet access to every home in America. Prioritizing rural households and low-income areas.
Federal incentives for investors that develop and maintain low-income rental properties or affordable homes for purchase by middle class families.
Funding to create non-profit state prisons focused on positively and productively reintegrating prisoners to society, supported by public policies that reduce crime and drug use by addressing the conditions of poverty.
IEP reforms that create a federal standard and ensure families with loved ones that have acute mental health needs receive the support they deserve.
