Abortion & Reproductive Rights

Supports expanding clean energy (solar, wind, battery storage), investing in clean energy jobs and workforce training, lowering energy costs through home energy upgrades and incentives, modernizing the grid and resilience (microgrids, battery storage), and pollution and water protections. The agenda emphasizes public transit electrification, tree-planting and heat resilience, and holding polluters accountable while pursuing infrastructure to reduce outages and climate risks.
Public Safety & Guns
The candidate frames gun violence as a public-health crisis and emphasizes prevention, community programs, and accountability for policing. His public safety plan calls for expanding violence-interruption programs, shutting down illegal gun-trafficking networks, civilian oversight of police, mandated de-escalation training, and banning military-grade equipment for police. The plan emphasizes non‑punitive interventions (mental-health crisis teams, victim support, job training) alongside law‑enforcement accountability measures.
