Positions
Economy & Taxes
The candidate supports targeted social spending (childcare subsidies, a $1,000 monthly stipend for pregnant/postpartum mothers, a temporary Social Security increase, SNAP expansion, and advocating for Universal Basic Income) while also saying she will oppose "unnecessary federal spending that creates inflation" and pursue regulatory reforms to lower costs. She supports tax relief on consumer essentials (advocates making food purchases tax-free) but does not state a clear, comprehensive stance on corporate or high-income tax changes.
Healthcare
Supports a national public option to expand coverage, seeks to reverse Medicaid cuts from recent federal legislation and restore funding to the National Institutes of Health, and frames healthcare as inadequately accessible and expensive for Americans.

Immigration & Border
The candidate supports comprehensive immigration reform that expands legal pathways and protections: eligibility for naturalization for long-term residents, protection for DACA recipients, stopping inhumane ICE tactics, and expanded H-1B and seasonal work visas with worker protections. She also frames the immigration system as broken and calls for reform while noting concerns about border security and public safety.
Climate & Energy
The candidate advocates a strategic energy plan to reduce the cost of gas and electricity and supports investment in energy production, explicitly including Small Modular Reactors, alongside regulatory reform to encourage energy development and innovation.
Public Safety & Guns
The candidate emphasizes strengthening public safety by restoring federal funding for local law enforcement, supporting tougher laws to punish crimes and cracking down on organized crime, and backing increased police hiring. The campaign materials and media interviews highlight a focus on law-and-order approaches rather than proposing new gun-control measures. No clear public position on specific gun policies (e.g., universal background checks, assault-weapons bans, or red-flag laws) was found in the cited sources.
News
Marie Hurabiell is running in California’s 11th Congressional District race to replace Nancy Pelosi, but recent coverage says she is polling well behind the leading candidates. The latest reporting focuses on the contest narrowing around Scott Wiener, Connie Chan, and Saikat Chakrabarti, with Hurabiell mentioned as a lower-polling candidate. Pelosi’s endorsement of Connie Chan has added momentum to that side of the race.
