Reproductive health

Supports enshrining a nationwide right to abortion

Jim knows a woman’s right to choose is paramount. He’s stood against Republican attempts to defund family planning and community health centers, and he opposed multiple efforts to ban abortion at the federal level. He’ll continue fighting against these attacks and working to enshrine the right to an abortion for every woman in our country.

Supports improving the ACA and sustaining Medicare

Jim fights every day to make Medicare sustainable for future generations, improve the Affordable Care Act, which ensured millions of Americans’ health coverage, and prioritize access to quality, affordable healthcare for all Americans.

LGBTQ+ rights

Supports enacting the Equality Act

And the GOP has continued to ramp up their hateful culture war against the LGBTQ community. This has to stop — which is why Jim co-sponsored and helped pass the Equality Act in the House, and won’t stop fighting until it is signed into law.
