I’ll repeal the Trump tariffs that are hurting American consumers and reform our tax structure to ensure the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share. This will allow us to deliver relief to the middle and working class and assistance for first-time home buyers and small businesses. Costs have gone up but wages haven’t, which is why I’m co-sponsoring the Raise the Wage Act to increase the minimum wage.
I support comprehensive immigration reform that prioritizes a pathway to citizenship that’s secure, timely, and easy to navigate. In Congress, I introduced the CLEAR ID Act requiring ICE agents to identify themselves and co-lead the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act to limit immigration enforcement at healthcare facilities, schools, courthouses, and houses of worship.
I serve on the Judiciary Committee, the Supreme Court Task Force & am a multi-jurisdictionally licensed attorney of 20 years. We need to expand the court, which has been done 7 times before, and also need ethics reform as this group of justices has revealed itself to be compromised; i.e. Presidential Immunity.
I’m a proud cosponsor of Medicare For All. We must fully cover preventative health care, cap out-of-pocket costs, and eliminate premiums, deductibles, and co-pays. In Congress, I’ve cosponsored bills to: lower drug costs, allow Medicare coverage for cancer early detection screening, and address the mental health crisis by training providers. Our health care system must center patients, not profits
