Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

Supports reversing recent tax giveaways that benefit the wealthy (including Missouri capital gains tax elimination) and targeting saved revenue toward education, childcare, healthcare, and other public services while calling for reviewing subsidies and loopholes. Emphasizes fiscal responsibility paired with increased public investments and opposes tax breaks that primarily benefit corporations and the ultra-wealthy.

Healthcare

Supports expanding the Affordable Care Act marketplace by allowing people to buy into Medicare (a public option-style Medicare buy-in) and proposes COBRA cost coverage during unemployment; emphasizes reducing medical debt and has launched a local medical-debt relief initiative.

Public Safety & Guns

Supports evidence-based gun safety measures including universal background checks, extreme risk protection orders (red flag laws), safe-storage and child access prevention laws, and federal investment in violence-prevention and research. Frames gun violence as a public‑health issue and favors community-based interventions alongside these policies.
