Healthcare It’s time to end the destruction of healthcare in America by price gouging, for-profit private health insurers and catch up to every other modern nation that’s implemented a single-payer universal healthcare system – no networks, no premiums, no co-pays, no deductibles and no surprise bills. Healthcare Medicare For All will expand Medicare coverage to include dental, hearing, mental health and substance abuse treatment, prescription drugs, long-term and disability care, and reproductive, fertility, and maternity care. Healthcare Medicare for All. Environment / Energy I will aggressively fight to reduce our carbon emissions and make sure we are combating the rapid environmental issues we are facing. Environment / Energy I will work with farmers to reduce nitrogen pollution in lakes and rivers and make sure they have access to the resources they need. Environment / Energy Green New Deal. Education I will support free public college and trade schools for all to end the equity gap in higher education. Education Student loan forgiveness. Economy We must secure a minimum wage of at least 15 that’s tied to inflation. Economy Helping Wisconsin farmers not just survive, but thrive is a priority. I will target support to smaller and more diverse farmers to slow farm consolidation and expand the sustainable practices to help farmers combat extreme weather. This means continuing the solar credit and grants to ensure easy access to new streams of income for farmers. Legislation Citizens United needs to be overturned to reduce the amount big corporations and billionaires can spend in elections. I would put forward legislation to make our elections more fair and work towards publicly funded elections. Government Reform For too long big money has been corrupting our elections. I support a ban of Members of Congress trading stocks, end partisan gerrymandering, guarantee automatic and same-day voter registration, restore and strengthen the Voting Rights Act. Housing I will also fight for the expansion of low income housing and accessible housing for those with disabilities. Everyone, regardless of income, deserves a place to call home that fits their needs. Taxes / Budget We need to protect it and increase the Social Security tax revenues to ensure it continues on. We also need to address the poverty cycle that traps those in lower incomes and those with disabilities by expanding benefits across the board, increasing the income cap for social security benefits receivers and increasing the Cost-of-Living-Adjustments. Guns We do however need change in our current gun laws to help protect our kids and communities. Common sense solutions such as requiring background checks, assault weapon ban (weapons of war do not belong in homes), and making sure firearms are stored where kids don’t have access to them. Immigration I am in support of abolishing ICE and replacing it with additional legal services, social service provision, and other community-based programs. Immigration I am in support of strengthening our border security, creating a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants who came to the United States as children. Abortion / Contraception I believe in unrestricted abortion access. It’s simple, every person, no matter where they live or how much they make, has the freedom to make their own decisions about their body and future. Civil Rights Finally, protecting tribal sovereignty, treaties, and ensuring access to lands for hunting, fishing, and conducting ceremonial rituals without interference is non-negotiable. These rights are fundamental to your cultural survival and autonomy. Civil Rights The crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) demands urgent attention. We must work tirelessly to bring justice and safety to our women and girls, ensuring their voices are heard and their lives protected. Civil Rights Access to healthcare remains a significant challenge for many Indigenous and Native American communities. It is imperative that we advocate for increased funding for the Indian Health Service (IHS) to ensure that everyone has access to quality healthcare. Civil Rights As a proud member of the LBGTQ community, I’m committed to ending anti-LGBTQ violence, bullying, and discrimination, and to ensuring that LGBTQ Americans are treated with dignity and respect in their communities, their workplaces, and their schools. Foreign Policy A ceasefire in Gaza.
