Our policy goals include:

ECONOMY
To have an economy that lifts all Americans, we expect our government to provide services so that everyone has the opportunity to earn a living. Americans need a modern infrastructure, a living wage, quality education, affordable health care, affordable childcare, public safety, and a secure retirement. To this end, we acknowledge that the tax codes must be reformed so that everyone pays their fair share and the loopholes are closed. Our commitment to protecting the economy against reckless business practices is unwavering, ensuring your financial security and confidence in our government.

EDUCATION
We believe that access to quality education, from preschool through higher levels, plays a crucial role in personal development and societal progress. It empowers individuals, fosters critical thinking, and opens doors to opportunities. Supporting public education and advocating for higher pay for educators is crucial. Well-compensated teachers play a vital role in shaping the future by nurturing young minds.

ENVIRONMENT
We strive to be good stewards of the environment, respecting and protecting our magnificent state at the individual, community, and state levels. We strive to support candidates dedicated to preserving our public lands and securing a sustainable future for generations to come.

GUN VIOLENCE
Addressing gun violence is a complex issue that requires thoughtful discussion and collaboration. Common-sense steps might include universal background checks, red flag laws, and safe storage requirements. Engaging in open conversations about these measures can lead to meaningful solutions.

IMMIGRATION
We are committed to electing candidates who understand the essential need to address our immigration system. Solutions should prioritize humaneness and economic fairness, including comprehensive reform, pathways to citizenship, and support for refugees.

VOTING
Our pledge to protect and strengthen voting rights is a testament to our belief in the power of democracy. We are committed to the sacred principle of “one person, one vote” and will continue to fight to defend it for every citizen.

WOMEN
A woman’s reproductive choices are deeply personal and multifaceted. We believe that it is essential to respect her autonomy and consider the perspectives of her family, healthcare provider, and faith.
