Priorities
I'm a grassroots, progressive candidate that believes in:
-
Medicare for All: comprehensive care for everyone that includes dental, vision, and mental health care
Strengthening our public health network: protecting our communities and preventing future illness and injury
Abortion is healthcare: restoring the right to abortion and expanding access to care. This includes eliminating the Hyde Amendment.
Trans rights are human rights. Period.
-
Increasing the minimum wage to reflect a true living wage
Taxing billionaires to fund social programs and infrastructure improvements
Accountability and consequences for the companies that are destroying our environment and big banks that are robbing our students and working families.
Ending our support of those guilty of committing genocide and war crimes
-
Prison reform: people shouldn’t be getting rich from the incarceration of others and inmates should not be used as slave labor. This includes revising the 13th amendment.
Ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment: all people should have equal rights under the law.
Abolish ICE
Tribal sovereignty: native tribes deserve our support and respect
Expanding resources for our service members, veterans, and their families
-
Supporting the passage of the Green New Deal
Increasing protection and support for our National Parks system
