Environment / Energy Wildfires are one of the hidden drivers of rising costs in California. Preventing them lowers insurance premiums and protects communities. Environment / Energy Invest in proven prevention such as fuel reduction, forest management, prescribed burns, and firebreaks to stop small risks from becoming catastrophic fires. Education California has the largest community college system in the country. Janelle believes we can make community college tuition-free to help people train for higher-paying jobs and strengthen the workforce powering California’s economy — without raising taxes. Education Redirect available K–14 resources, including one-time Prop 98 funds, to close the remaining gap on tuition and fees. Environment / Energy Help homeowners and communities harden homes, create defensible space, and strengthen neighborhood resilience against wildfire. Environment / Energy Make it easier and worthwhile for households and businesses to shift electricity use away from peak hours through better pricing, smart devices, storage, and programs that reward people for helping the grid when it is under stress. Civil Rights Civil rights for all, including members of our trans community. Healthcare Expanded mental health support, especially in our schools. Environment / Energy Set clear rules that tie wildfire mitigation to lower premiums and broader coverage so homeowners who reduce risk can actually find and afford insurance. Environment / Energy Finance undergrounding and grid hardening with low-cost public bonds and competitive bidding so savings go back to ratepayers instead of increasing utility profits. Environment / Energy Require large industrial customers, including AI data centers, to shift or reduce electricity use during peak periods. Economy Streamline workforce programs so funding supports tuition-free training in fields where California needs workers most. Healthcare Healthcare for all. Abortion / Contraception Safe and legal access to abortion and reproductive healthcare.
