Positions
Economy & Taxes
Michael Alfonso supports reducing the size of the federal government, rein-ing in spending, cutting regulation and red tape, and stopping what he calls wasteful foreign spending. He frames his agenda as America‑First and pro‑growth, emphasizing lower government spending and state power rather than expanded federal programs or higher taxes on wealthy Americans.
Healthcare
Supports lowering healthcare costs, increasing pricing transparency, and prioritizing patients over bureaucrats and insurers while reducing the size of government and restoring power to states. No endorsement of single-payer or Medicare-for-All language is stated on his campaign issues page. Policy language emphasizes cost, transparency, and state-level control rather than federal expansions of coverage.

Immigration & Border
Supports stricter immigration policy that reduces mass immigration and limits high-skilled visa programs such as H-1B, framing immigration as harmful to American workers and wages and saying immigration policy should protect national identity and prioritize Americans. Emphasizes enforcement-oriented reforms rather than expansion of legal pathways or broad regularization.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate describes himself as "100% Pro Life," states that every person has a right to life from conception to natural death, applauds the overturning of Roe v. Wade, opposes expansion of mail-in abortion pills, and rejects assisted suicide. He supports protecting the unborn and returning authority to states on abortion policy.
Climate & Energy
Supports prioritizing American energy production and lowering energy costs, emphasizing 'American Energy Dominance' and market-focused approaches rather than aggressive federal climate regulation. No campaign materials or public statements were found advocating for aggressive emissions targets, Green New Deal–style policies, or phasing out fossil fuels.
