Immigration & Border
Supports secure borders while criticizing current enforcement practices and funding levels; emphasizes that harsh, criminalizing approaches are wrong and calls for more controlled, systematized policies rather than mass enforcement. Positions emphasize reform-minded critiques of enforcement rather than maximalist restrictionist proposals.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
No clear, explicit position on abortion access or federal policy is stated on the candidate’s campaign website. A news roundup quotes the candidate saying he hoped the legislature would craft a “clean” ballot-initiative bill that does not exempt abortion from voter initiative authority, but this does not constitute a comprehensive stated position on abortion access or specific restrictions/exceptions.
Public Safety & Guns
The candidate has sponsored and co-sponsored Mississippi state bills that both expand gun access (for example, bills to provide parental amnesty for turning in minors' firearms and to authorize certain nonviolent felons to possess firearms for home defense) and regulate specific firearm concerns (for example, a bill to criminalize possession of unserialized “ghost guns”). This record shows support for some pro-gun access measures alongside support for targeted regulation, yielding a mixed stance on gun policy.
