Economy & Taxes
Supports reducing tax burdens on middle-class families and small businesses, cutting federal taxes on tips and overtime pay, and providing targeted tax incentives for businesses and homeowners while seeking relief from high property taxes. Advocates tax credits and regulatory streamlining to encourage investment, entrepreneurship, and job growth rather than expanding large-scale redistribution programs.
Healthcare
Prioritizes restoring patients to the center of healthcare by encouraging competition, increasing price transparency, breaking up monopolistic practices, lowering prescription drug and hospital costs, and fostering private-sector innovation to reduce costs and improve outcomes. Advocates market-based reforms rather than government-run or single-payer solutions.

Immigration & Border
Supports restoring order and enforcing the rule of law at the border while also creating clear, efficient, and humane pathways to citizenship for non-criminal immigrants who contribute to communities. Emphasizes protecting the safety and economic stability of American-born citizens and respect for borders alongside reforms to the immigration process.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate is a Republican running for U.S. House in Illinois’ 1st District and has been endorsed by a pro‑life advocacy PAC. Her campaign materials emphasize parental rights and oppose mandates that restrict personal healthcare choices but do not explicitly state support for unrestricted abortion access. Public materials and endorsements indicate alignment with pro‑restriction/pro‑family policy positions on reproductive issues rather than a pro‑choice platform.
