Top Issues

Healthcare Lower health care costs by reducing administrative bloat and corporate middlemen in the medical field. Foreign Policy Israel has the right to exist, and the United States should support its security. At the same time, we must remain critical of any actions by allies that violate human rights or U.S. Interests. American aid to Israel must be used to promote peace and protect civilians—not to further conflict or violate international law. Palestinians also have the right to exist, to sovereignty, and to self-determination. Some actions taken by the Israeli government, particularly collective punishment in Gaza following the attacks on October 7th, were unacceptable and counterproductive to the safety of Israeli hostages. Thousands of innocent Palestinians suffered as a result. American policymakers must hold Israel accountable if it violates Palestinian rights, including continued settlement expansion in the West Bank or actions that break international law. U.S. Aid should be tied to compliance with these standards. I support a two-state solution to achieve lasting peace for both Israelis and Palestinians. Immigration We need proper immigration reform in this country. That means creating a clear pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, DACA recipients, and individuals with Temporary Protected Status. This process must be safe, clear, and reasonable for those who are undocumented. People should not be afraid to come out of the shadows to follow the law and contribute fully to the country they already call home. Government Reform Limit Big Money Influence: Establish strict limits on campaign contributions from corporations, PACs, and super PACs, ensuring elected officials are accountable to their constituents, not to shareholders. Abortion / Contraception Every medical decision, including those related to reproductive health and abortion, should be made between a patient and their provider, free from government interference. I am committed to protecting a woman's right to access quality reproductive healthcare and will fight to keep those decisions where they belong: in the hands of patients and their doctors. Environment / Energy As the Sunshine State, Florida has enormous untapped solar potential. We should be leading the nation. I support increased federal investment in solar power, battery storage, and grid modernization to make our energy system more reliable, affordable, and resilient especially during hurricanes and extreme heat. Legislation Elected Officials should be banned from sharing or propagating AI-generated content in any official capacity. Doing so should be grounds for fines or impeachment. Promoting AI-generated content in a public position within the government is directly and purposefully misleading the public. Government Reform To promote accountability and prevent entrenched power, we should limit congressional and Senate members to a fixed number of terms, ensuring fresh perspectives and reducing political stagnation. As a way to commit to this policy, should I win, I pledge I will not serve more than six terms as a Congressional Representative (12 years). Education Students should graduate with some level of financial literacy including budgeting, credit and interest rates, student loans, retirement accounts, basic accounting, and how to build long-term financial independence. Housing Housing is something that is hard to tackle on a national level. Housing markets are very localized and there are different issues plaguing different markets. On a national level, I support banning corporations from buying up single-family homes and artificially reducing the supply of houses on the market. I will also support national bills that support housing development as our population grows while still protecting the environment. Immigration We also need to invest further in our immigration processes. We need to hire more immigration judges, create clear timelines for citizenship, and provide universal legal representation in removal proceedings. I would propose shifting the budget allocated to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to immigration reform. Government Reform Eliminate Dark Money: We must pass laws that prevent corporations, PACs, and wealthy donors from secretly funding congressional campaigns. Transparency is essential so voters know who is influencing elected officials. Defense / Veterans We need to restore full military benefits for transgender service members and pass legislation that prevents political interference or punishment based on gender identity. Environment / Energy I support expanding and diversifying renewable energy production across the United States while responsibly reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. Investing in renewable energy lowers electricity costs, strengthens energy independence, and creates good-paying jobs. Community-driven solar projects, in particular, can reduce household energy bills while keeping energy ownership local. Wages / Job Benefits I support eliminating the sub-minimum wage for tipped workers and guaranteeing the same base wage as everyone else, with tips on top - not as a substitute for fair pay. Government Reform I support expanding the Supreme Court to match the number of federal judicial circuits, ensuring the Court reflects the modern judiciary and the country it serves. Civil Rights Automatic voter registration to ensure every eligible citizen is on the rolls. Healthcare Facilitate stronger negotiation around drug prices and give the government more leverage to do so.
