Healthcare

Supports universal access to healthcare and lowering prescription drug costs while defending Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Emphasizes that medical decisions should be made by patients, families, and doctors rather than politicians.

Immigration & Border

Opposes aggressive ICE enforcement and detention practices and promotes empowering people to know and defend their rights during encounters with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The campaign emphasizes ending what it calls an ICE “occupation” of cities and protecting families from detention. No explicit policy proposals for legalization pathways or asylum reform are stated on the campaign site.
