Political Positions
Economy & Taxes
The candidate proposes major tax increases on the ultra‑wealthy and large corporations (including corporate rates up to 50% and very high marginal rates for millionaires/billionaires), creation of a national VAT, and making the first $30,000 of income tax‑free while cutting taxes for low‑ and middle‑income households. The plan funds expansive new public programs (universal health care, tuition‑free college, nationwide living wage supports) through these tax changes and redirected government spending.
Healthcare
Supports a universal, government-funded public health plan that provides free high-quality health care to all Americans; her H.E.A.L. Act would provide a public option that enrollees can use instead of private or employer insurance and aims to make health care effectively free with no premiums or deductibles.

Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate has publicly characterized abortion as morally comparable to slavery and cited large numbers of abortions in the U.S., while her campaign platform emphasizes expanded health-care coverage (including IVF and gender‑affirming care) but does not set out a clear federal abortion policy. Available public statements therefore show oppositionist rhetoric on abortion but do not provide a clear policy position on federal abortion restrictions or protections.
Climate & Energy
Supports reclaiming government from fossil-fuel influence, expanding renewable energy and green jobs, modernizing infrastructure (including the electrical grid), and pursuing stronger environmental protections and international climate leadership. Emphasizes using federal investment and job programs to build clean-energy capacity while protecting workers and polluted communities.
