Collapse all
|- Building Healthy Communities: The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the failures in our healthcare system and shown that healthy communities are essential for societies to thrive. I will use science-based policies to improve the health and well-being of all members of our community.
- Ensuring Shared Prosperity: For too long, the United States has allowed poverty, inequality, and structural racism to go unchecked. I will advocate for sound, equitable policies to meet the needs of all families, protect workers, and ensure small businesses can survive.
- Protecting the Environment: From climate change to air pollution, biodiversity loss and toxic chemicals, the threats to our environment are growing and cannot be ignored. I will work to ensure that we leave behind a healthy planet for all our children by fighting for environmental justice today.
The incredible momentum of this campaign shows that our health can't wait any longer and that people in District 4 want a voice for science in government. They want to ensure that decisions and measures taken protect the lives, livelihoods, and dignity of all Americans and set us on a new path towards shared prosperity that protects the health of people and the planet.
