Candidate positionI refuse to take corporate PAC money – during the campaign and once elected – and will be a steadfast champion for cleaning up our democracy.

Candidate positionAcross the Sixth District, the immigrant families that are a vital part of our economy, schools, and communities are under attack. Donald Trump is terrorizing families, ignoring due process, and promoting cruel policies that pit neighbors against one another. Democrats cannot just issue statements while communities are torn apart — we must fight back.

Candidate positionIt is difficult to break through in today’s media environment with the constant stream of disinformation coming from the White House. I built my online platform, The People’s Cabinet, to bring fact-based arguments to counter the blatant lies that come from the Trump administration and present a bold democratic vision for the future. When we bring audiences facts about how Trump is responsible for raising costs and propose concrete, alternative policy options from Democrats, we will win voters back.

Candidate positionI’m in favor of common sense reforms that lower the cost of prescription drugs and bring down costs for Americans, as we did in the Biden administration by allowing Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices and capping insulin costs for seniors at $35. We also desperately need to reinstate the ACA subsidies that millions of Americans are reliant upon.
