Positions
Economy & Taxes
Supports restoring and increasing federal funding for housing, food assistance, and childcare programs, reducing tariffs that raise consumer costs, and directing taxpayer money toward social programs rather than enforcement or foreign interventions. Endorses taxation/fees used to fund public services (e.g., mentions using cannabis tax revenue for teachers).
Healthcare
Supports transitioning the United States to a single-payer health care system (cites Medicare for All as an example) and proposes near-term actions to expand Medicare coverage and reduce prescription drug costs.

Immigration & Border
Supports reforming the immigration system to create faster legal pathways while maintaining a secure border; emphasizes that immigrants have built America and that legal immigration should not take decades. Advocates for humane reform rather than enforcement-only approaches while acknowledging border security.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports protecting a woman’s right to choose and federal legislation that protects abortion access and providers; states that abortion in Texas should be safe, legal, and rare. Opposes Texas’ post‑Dobbs restrictions and frames reproductive health access (including contraception and family planning) as part of reducing unwanted pregnancies.
Climate & Energy
Supports expansion of green energy (solar, wind, etc.) for jobs and energy competitiveness, acknowledges climate change as real, and advocates maintaining local oil and gas jobs during transition rather than immediate phase-out of fossil fuels.
Public Safety & Guns
Claire Reynolds says she wants to work on reducing gun violence but her campaign website does not list specific gun-policy proposals and public reporting of her campaign announcements does not cite detailed positions (for example, on universal background checks, assault weapons bans, or red flag laws). Available public material indicates a general commitment to addressing gun violence but does not provide a clear, specific policy agenda on firearms regulation.
