Positions
Healthcare
The candidate states that healthcare is a right and calls for reimagining the healthcare system while protecting healthcare access and the role of local health departments. Her campaign materials emphasize expanding and protecting access rather than market-based rollback or full privatization.
Public Safety & Guns
The candidate emphasizes strengthening public safety, working with law enforcement, and investing in community supports but does not state specific positions on gun-policy measures such as background checks, assault weapons bans, or red flag laws. Public materials focus on general public-safety goals and community-law-enforcement collaboration without explicit gun-regulation proposals.
