Immigration Create an integrated federal entry-exit and overstay tracking platform linked to DHS, State, and DOJ systems, with regular reporting to Congress and clear enforcement triggers. Taxes / Budget Modernize tax treatment of stock options and employee equity so startups can reward builders without excessive tax penalties. Education Fund rapid retraining grants, community college AI certificates, apprenticeship pipelines, and veteran-focused tech transition programs. Immigration Require stricter employer accountability, stronger wage floors, anti-abuse audits, and complementary U.S. Job-training pipelines so foreign-worker programs do not replace domestic talent development.

Housing Expand federal incentives for new housing supply, reward faster local permitting, support first-time homebuyer savings tools, and grow workforce housing near jobs and transit. Immigration Fully fund modern border security technology, targeted physical barriers where needed, anti-cartel operations, and rapid processing teams so unlawful entry is deterred and legal entry is prioritized.

Education Support tuition-pressure reforms, expand career and technical education, strengthen community-college transfer pipelines, and tie training programs to high-growth sectors. Environment / Energy Advance an all-of-the-above energy strategy, modernize the grid, improve fuel and power reliability, and invest in transportation efficiency to lower commute expenses. Immigration Set fast asylum adjudication timelines, expand immigration courts, require timely case resolution, and remove those with denied claims through lawful, humane, and efficient procedures. Education Launch a federal-state partnership to integrate AI fundamentals, critical thinking, ethics, and digital safety into K–12 standards and teacher training. Economy Enact targeted middle-class relief, strengthen market competition, crack down on hidden junk fees, and support federal actions that lower core living costs without expanding bureaucracy.
