Healthcare

Immigration & Border
Supports abolition of ICE and an end to aggressive ICE enforcement; advocates for protecting immigrants and expanding humanitarian immigration policies rather than enforcement expansion. Positions emphasize ending large-scale deportation-style actions and prioritizing legal/humanitarian pathways.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports codifying the protections of Roe v. Wade at the federal level and describes protecting reproductive freedom as a campaign priority. Endorses the Women’s Health Protection Act (H.R.12 / S.2150) as the vehicle to secure those protections.
Climate & Energy
Supports large federal investment in clean energy and green manufacturing, protecting Inflation Reduction Act incentives, resilient infrastructure upgrades, transit expansion, and a Green New Deal–style program for public housing. Frames climate as a defining national security threat and prioritizes building on Kansas’s wind and battery industry to create union jobs.
Public Safety & Guns
Supports passing an assault weapons ban, implementing universal background checks, and treating gun violence as a public health crisis; favors common-sense gun safety measures alongside justice reform.
News
Sarah Preu is in the news because Missouri is moving ahead with its 2026 House primary under a newly drawn congressional map, even though the map’s legal status is still being challenged. That means candidates like Preu may be nominated in districts that could later change before the November election. The dispute could create a mismatch between the districts used in the primary and the ones used in the general election.
