Immigration & Border
The candidate supports abolishing ICE, opposes aggressive immigration enforcement, and frames current immigration laws as broken while prioritizing redirecting funds from enforcement and overseas wars to domestic social programs.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports reproductive freedom and abortion access; has endorsements from reproductive-rights organizations. Campaign materials and endorsements indicate alignment with pro–reproductive rights groups.
Climate & Energy
Public campaign materials and recent interviews emphasize immigration, healthcare, and anti-corporate economic priorities; they do not present a detailed climate or energy policy. The campaign site lists endorsements from progressive groups that typically prioritize aggressive climate action, but I did not find explicit policy proposals on emissions targets, fossil-fuel phaseout, or specific clean-energy programs.
