Political Positions
Economy & Taxes
Supports reducing wasteful government spending and ensuring tax dollars are spent ‘wisely and conservatively’; promotes tax breaks and targeted tax credits to spur job creation and small-business growth. Positions emphasize stretching taxpayer dollars and incentivizing private-sector hiring rather than expanding government programs.
Immigration & Border
Supports enforcing immigration laws and fighting illegal immigration, framing it as impacting schools, health care, and public safety; emphasizes border security and related enforcement measures while not advancing maximal deportation or blanket asylum-restriction proposals in the cited statements.

Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate has previously stated that reproductive decisions should be left to a woman, her family, and physicians and has identified as pro-choice; he has received endorsements from Planned Parenthood during prior campaigns. Recent campaign materials show mixed language about the Supreme Court returning the issue to the states but do not provide a clear shift to supporting strict bans.
Climate & Energy
Supports investment in clean renewable energy and local conservation measures; backed policies to require rainwater harvesting and plumbing for graywater reuse in new construction and has expressed support for regulatory measures on carbon-based emissions paired with funding for clean-energy jobs. Positions emphasize clean energy as a job-creation and energy-independence strategy while accepting transitional approaches rather than explicitly calling for a fossil-fuel phase-out.
Public Safety & Guns
Supports Second Amendment rights and positions the Attorney General as a defender of law enforcement; emphasizes backing police, mandatory AG review of declined felonious-assault-on-first-responder charges, and criticizes officials perceived as undermining law enforcement. Public statements link support for gun rights to support for public safety and law enforcement.
