Positions
Healthcare
Doug Lloyd has not published broad health-care policy proposals on his campaign site; public statements available focus on law-enforcement aspects of reproductive care and procedural requirements for enforcing existing statutes. He has said the pre‑Roe statute is in force following Roe’s overturning and described the procedural steps required for prosecutions, without laying out a wider health‑policy agenda.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Doug Lloyd has not stated a clear public policy position endorsing expanded or restricted abortion access; as Eaton County prosecutor and as president of the Prosecuting Attorneys Association of Michigan he has described existing pre-1973 Michigan law as legally in force and said prosecutors are proceeding cautiously about how to respond. Public statements focus on following the law and on prosecutorial process rather than advocacy for a particular abortion policy.

Public Safety & Guns
The candidate emphasizes prosecuting gun crimes and public-safety enforcement while defending constitutional rights; he has promoted safe storage and responsibility for gun owners. There is no clear evidence he supports broad new firearm bans or progressive gun-control measures.
