Positions
Economy & Taxes
The candidate's public materials include pro-worker policies such as raising the minimum wage and mortgage/foreclosure reforms, alongside proposals that would reduce or eliminate some taxes (for example proposing that property become tax-exempt after 25 years). Overall the platform contains both tax-cutting proposals and pro-labor/redistributive measures without a clear single orientation on tax policy.
Climate & Energy
Supports federal support for wind and solar and criticizes cuts to subsidies for those industries; emphasizes clean energy job growth while positioning opposition to the incumbent for reducing renewable subsidies. No public evidence of support for Green New Deal–level policies or for phasing out fossil fuels entirely.
