Positions
Economy & Taxes
The candidate emphasizes economic growth through supporting development, the entertainment industry, small businesses and tourism to strengthen the city’s tax base and revenue. Her campaign language prioritizes protecting and attracting businesses and using public-private partnerships to drive revenue rather than proposing explicit new taxes. Specific tax-rate proposals or advocacy for higher taxes on wealthy or corporate entities are not present in the cited materials.
Immigration & Border
The candidate has not published a clear, comprehensive immigration or border policy on her campaign site. She expressed concerns about a Los Angeles proposal to allow noncitizens to vote, saying a registry could expose undocumented residents to greater danger from federal immigration enforcement, but has not outlined broader enforcement or regularization positions.
