Political Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

Supports federal investments and targeted spending to create jobs and lower costs for families, including tax credits for childcare and expanded healthcare premium tax credits, while opposing cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Prioritizes federal funding for infrastructure, affordable housing, rental assistance, and programs to support small businesses and rural communities. Advocates transparency and accountability in government spending but does not prominently call for major tax cuts or explicit large-scale tax increases on the wealthy in available materials.

Healthcare

Supports strengthening and building on the Affordable Care Act (expand premium tax credits), protecting and improving Medicare and Medicaid access, lowering prescription drug costs through Medicare negotiation, and increasing funding for mental health and addiction treatment.

Immigration & Border

Supports expanding legal pathways for workers and protecting Dreamers while improving asylum processing and humane treatment; favors securing the border with technology, personnel, and modern infrastructure rather than building ineffective walls. Advocates reducing backlogs and modernizing the immigration court system to streamline legal immigration and keep families together.

Climate & Energy

The candidate says man-made climate change is a global threat that requires urgent political action and supports building climate-resilient infrastructure such as improved electrical grids and stormwater management. The campaign/aggregate profiles emphasize prioritizing climate action and investments in clean energy resilience.

Public Safety & Guns

Supports common-sense gun safety measures that protect communities while respecting responsible gun ownership. Advocates gun-safety policies as part of a broader public-safety and community-protection agenda.
