Positions
Economy & Taxes
Supports tax cuts and reduced regulatory burden for small businesses, and emphasizes free‑market measures to stimulate economic growth while addressing inflation and cost-of-living pressures.
Healthcare
The candidate’s campaign emphasizes expanding behavioral health support for veterans and developing mental health and substance-abuse treatment facilities as part of homelessness responses, but does not state a clear position on broader health policy items such as the ACA, Medicare expansion, a public option, or single‑payer proposals.

Immigration & Border
Supports securing the southern border and prioritizing national security while indicating support for DACA recipients and immigration reform. Emphasizes enforcement and border security as a primary response to drugs and national-security concerns.
Climate & Energy
The candidate’s campaign materials list addressing environmental issues among national priorities but provide no specific climate or energy policies or targets. Public profiles and ballot guides confirm candidacy but do not contain detailed positions on emissions reductions, renewable energy, carbon pricing, or fossil fuel phase-out. Available public sources therefore show only a vague commitment to environmental issues without clear policy specifics.
Public Safety & Guns
The candidate emphasizes restoring public safety by cracking down on crime, holding offenders accountable, and supporting law enforcement rather than defunding it. The campaign prioritizes tougher criminal-justice measures, border security to reduce drug trafficking, and policies intended to protect communities from crime and fentanyl. No explicit proposal for new firearm restrictions or affirmative gun-control measures was found on the cited campaign pages.
