Positions
Economy & Taxes
Andrew Sneed’s campaign emphasizes affordability and worker protections—priorities include expanding rental assistance, lowering utility bills, boosting federal investment in energy efficiency, and supporting collective bargaining—while he has also expressed concern about the national debt and balanced budgets. His campaign materials and news coverage describe economic priorities and cost-of-living measures but do not present clear, specific tax-policy proposals.
Healthcare
Supports expanding Medicare and Medicaid, negotiating prescription drug costs, and regulating for‑profit insurers while lowering costs and keeping rural hospitals open; favors extending Affordable Care Act subsidies and investing in preventive and community care.

Immigration & Border
Supports funding essential Department of Homeland Security agencies while separating debate over Immigration and Customs Enforcement funding; opposes politicizing agency funding and has said he supports enacting immigration reform through Congress. He has criticized performative division on immigration funding and framed the issue as one for problem-solving rather than partisan attacks.
Climate & Energy
Supports federal investment in clean and sustainable energy technologies, strengthening grid resilience through federal grants and transmission funding, and restoring clean air and water protections while emphasizing stewardship of local waterways and land development safeguards.
