Positions
LiberalConservative
Healthcare
Supports strengthening Medicare and lowering healthcare and prescription drug costs, and proposes extending healthcare subsidies to reduce out-of-pocket expenses for South Florida families. Focus is on making healthcare more affordable within existing programs rather than endorsing single‑payer Medicare for All.
Immigration & Border
Supports immigration reform that includes pathways to citizenship while saying violent criminals should be deported and opposing open borders. Emphasizes overdue reform and criticizes narrow proposals that he says do not provide dignity or a feasible path to citizenship for millions of immigrants.

Climate & Energy
The candidate's campaign mentions "protecting our environment" but provides no detailed climate or energy policy positions on the campaign website or in news coverage; public statements and news profiles emphasize affordability, immigration, and insurance rather than specific climate targets or energy plans.
