Policies

Healthcare is a human right. No one should have to choose between paying rent and seeing a doctor. I support universal, publicly funded healthcare that covers all basic needs — including mental health, dental, vision, and reproductive care — free at the point of service.
Every worker deserves dignity and a fair wage. I believe in raising the minimum wage to a true living wage, protecting workers’ rights to unionize, and closing the gap between executive pay and frontline labor. Our economy should work for the people — not just for the wealthy few.
Immigrants make our communities stronger. I support creating a clear and humane pathway to citizenship, protecting DACA recipients, and ending cruel detention practices. Oregon should be a safe place for immigrant families to live, work, and thrive without fear.
ICE out of Oregon!
We can’t afford to wait on climate action. I believe in investing in clean energy, sustainable transportation, and resilient local infrastructure to protect our communities from wildfires, heatwaves, and floods. We must hold corporations accountable for pollution and make environmental justice a top priority.

There’s More?

You Betcha!

Mental health care and addiction recovery are not luxuries — they’re essential. I will fight to expand free, community-based mental health services and recovery programs that meet people where they are, without stigma or barriers.
Everyone deserves a safe, stable home. We need to expand affordable housing, strengthen tenant protections, and invest in Housing First solutions that treat homelessness as a crisis of affordability — not a crime.
Justice should mean fairness, not fear. I support ending mass incarceration, eliminating cash bail, and reinvesting in community safety programs that focus on prevention and mental health rather than punishment. Accountability and transparency in law enforcement are essential for public trust.
Every child deserves a quality education — no matter their zip code. I’ll fight to fully fund public schools, raise teacher pay, and expand access to early childhood education, free childcare, and community college. Education should be a doorway to opportunity, not debt.

Just a few more, please!

We can respect the Second Amendment while protecting our communities. I support universal background checks, safe storage laws, and restrictions on weapons of war. Gun violence is a public health crisis, and we must treat it like one — with prevention, education, and accountability.
Everyone deserves to live authentically and safely, free from discrimination, harassment, or violence. I support full legal equality for LGBTQIA+ people, access to affirming healthcare, protections for transgender and nonbinary individuals, and safe schools and workplaces. Policies should ensure that LGBTQIA+ youth and adults have the support and resources they need to thrive.
It’s time the ultra-rich and large corporations pay their fair share. While billionaires hoard wealth, working people are stretched thin. We can fund essential services — healthcare, housing, education, and public safety — by taxing extreme wealth and corporate profits.
Democracy only works when everyone has a voice. I support automatic voter registration, expanded vote-by-mail, and stronger protections against voter suppression. No one should have to jump through hoops to exercise their most fundamental right — the right to vote.
