Mariana Sandoval

Guns We must address gun violence as a mental health issue and establish common-sense gun reform. This includes universal background checks and eliminating loopholes that allow guns to fall into the hands of criminals and stricter prohibitions for domestic violence misdemeanants. Healthcare I support lowering prescription drug prices and expanding behavioral and mental health programs. Guns I support safe and responsible gun ownership. Too many have fallen due to senseless gun violence and mass shootings. Environment / Energy I support responsible water management and protecting public lands, wildlife, and sacred cultural sites. Environment / Energy We must hold polluters accountable, invest in renewable energy, and combat climate change for our future. Education Every child deserves a fully funded P–20 public education, including universal preschool and higher educator pay. I support restoring community college funding and expanding early childhood programs. Healthcare I will continue protecting Medicaid expansion and strengthening rural healthcare. Infrastructure / Transportation Every eligible voter should have a fair and equal opportunity to participate in democracy. We must protect voting rights and ensure the integrity and accessibility of our elections. Wages / Job Benefits I support job creation through workforce development and public‑private partnerships. Defense / Veterans We have made promises to our service members that need to be kept. Veteran care is often specialized and requires dedicated approaches that can’t always be found in the civilian healthcare system. We must increase service members’ access to mental healthcare and improve its timeliness and quality.
