Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

Public record shows the candidate has advocated for increased state investments in student basic needs and college affordability, while also appearing as a contributor/research fellow on work hosted by a pro-market policy organization. Available public statements therefore provide mixed signals about whether he supports tax increases or tax cuts as a primary approach to funding those priorities.

Immigration & Border

Supports removing barriers for undocumented students to access education and workforce programs, arguing they should be allowed to use ITINs for required background checks and be included in career and technical education opportunities. Emphasizes that undocumented students contribute economically and should not be excluded from training programs.
