Positions
Economy & Taxes
Supports raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour indexed to inflation, new taxes on wealthy compensation/assets (an origination tax on assets/stock received in lieu of salary above $250,000), and lifting the Social Security payroll tax cap to subject higher incomes to Social Security taxes. Also opposes trickle-down economic policies and supports expanded public spending such as Medicare-for-All as part of broader economic policy.
Healthcare
Supports affordable healthcare as a right and expanding access to affordable healthcare, including positions aligned with expanding government-backed access rather than repeal or privatization. Campaign materials and news coverage present healthcare expansion and affordability as a central platform issue.
