Positions
Healthcare
Eileen Day has not published a clear, detailed healthcare policy on her campaign site and during her TX-28 run she emphasized animal-welfare and shelter issues she described as tied to broader public health, safety and economic concerns. Public reporting indicates she ran a low-budget, newcomer campaign and did not put forward a specific platform on Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, or other major federal healthcare proposals.
Immigration & Border
The candidate emphasizes border security and aligns with President Trump’s agenda on border issues, framing the southern border as a local crisis that needs stronger enforcement and reform. Her campaign materials and local coverage highlight border security as a priority but do not lay out a detailed pathway for legal immigration expansion or asylum protections.
News
Eileen Day is in the news because the NRCC has launched its MAGA Majority program for the 2026 midterms, which is meant to give early support and resources to Republican candidates in key battleground districts. The program is aimed at helping GOP candidates aligned with the America First agenda. No other recent developments about Day were provided.
