International Affairs & Trade
“U.S. tax dollars must not fund Israel’s genocide in Gaza, forced displacement, collective punishment, apartheid, or illegal occupation. I will never vote to send U.S. weapons or military aid to Israel.”
Seniors & Aging
“We will protect Social Security, oppose benefit cuts or raising the retirement age, and lift the income cap so the wealthy pay their fair share.”
Immigration
“Our immigration system is broken by design, ICE has operated without accountability, terrorized families, violated due process, and wasted billions while making no one safer, so the agency must be abolished and those responsible prosecuted as we build a humane system enforcing law without disappearances or family separation.”
Health Care
Advocating for Medicare for All, promoting a single-payer solution for reform to our current healthcare system.
Taxes & Revenue
Billionaires borrow against stock to avoid income taxes. Any loan backed by stock should be treated and taxed as income, just like wages.

The National Archives holds the founding documents and the receipts, the records that let a citizen check what the government actually did. The Smithsonian and the national museums hold the version of the American story that outlasts whoever is in office. None of that survives being run by whoever currently holds power. We are watching boards replaced with loyalists, exhibits rewritten to flatter one man, collections put at risk, and a Pearl Harbor hero's name scraped off a ship to make room for an ego. A country that lets its record be edited by the people the record is about has no way to hold anyone accountable later. Write independence for the National Archives, the Smithsonian, and the national cultural institutions into statute, with fixed board terms, protection from political removal, and no rewriting or renaming without public process.
The government holds the investigative files on Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking of children: who paid, who flew, who knew, and which prosecutors decided back in 2008 that a plea deal was enough. Every release so far has landed late, partial, and with the redactions falling in suspiciously convenient places. The survivors have spent two decades being told to wait while the people they named kept their board seats and their reputations. There is exactly one legitimate reason to withhold any of this, and that is protecting victims who never chose to be in it; every other black box is someone being shielded who shouldn't be. Force the full release of the Epstein files with victim-identifying information redacted and nothing else, and open an independent review of how the 2008 deal was allowed to happen.
On September 15, Rep. Thomas Massie filed eight articles of impeachment against Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and the House can be forced to vote on them. The Constitution gives Congress, not the executive branch, the power to take the country to war, and it gives the House the power to remove officials who ignore that limit. Keeping American forces in combat in Iran without authorization from Congress is exactly the kind of abuse impeachment exists to answer. Impeachment is not a criminal trial. It is how Congress enforces the oath every official swears to the Constitution. Vote to impeach and remove him.
