| Collapse all
- ELIMINATE FRAUD & CORRUPTION: We are tired of unaccountable power and political insiders. We follow the rules and fall behind while leaders rig the system and treat taxpayer dollars like Monopoly money. That ends now. I've been a fraud fighter for 25 years and I'll apply that experience to uphold the rule of law, root out fraud and abuse, and hold accountable anyone who breaks the rules. That includes leading legislation to eliminate corporate tax loopholes, end government subsidies for profitable companies, tackle insurance fraud and eliminate pharmacy benefit managers, enforce taxes on crypto profits, and ban dark money in politics. This is the DOGE we all deserved.
- ACT NOW ON AFFORDABILITY: Everything costs way too much. We are tired of rich career politicians calling rising costs a hoax. They live in a different reality than us. This is a crisis and we feel it directly every single day. Rent, groceries, childcare, education, healthcare, energy, and insurance costs have skyrocketed the past 5 years. Young families can't afford to get started while seniors can't afford to slow down. I will spearhead legislation to boost housing supply, limit hedge fund investments in real estate, accelerate fusion and nuclear energy expansion, ensure low-cost community and tech college access, cap tariffs on international imports, and provide a public healthcare option that cuts costs and avoids insurers.
- CUT SPENDING & FUEL AMERICA-FIRST INNOVATION: Taxpayers will pay almost $1 trillion this year to service our national debt - that's the entire defense budget. Congress has failed us and it holds hostage our kids' futures. We need a plan that reigns in spending while dramatically growing our economy through ingenuity and technology leadership at home and abroad. I will introduce legislation to launch the Innovation Corps, focused on developing scientific advances and technological breakthroughs that can be applied to challenges in AI, medicine, energy, transportation, infrastructure, housing, and healthcare. Purpose-driven, patriotic jobs that solve important problems in our communities - and create tech advances we can license globally.
- Congress has an obligation to act as a check against unaccountable power.
- Healthcare should never bankrupt a family.
- Working hard should afford a decent life.
- Our kids deserve better schools and safer communities, free of drugs and violence.
- America should lead the world - not through fear, but through example.
- Politicians should be loyal to their constituents, not to a leader or party.
- No one is above the law. Leaders who claim to defend the rule of law and the Constitution cannot pick and choose which laws matter.
