Seniors & Aging
Peggy will fight to protect Social Security now and for future retirees by ensuring that the wealthiest Americans pay their fair share into the system. By expanding the income cap and source for contributions, Social Security will continue to provide benefits seniors can count on for decades to come.
Firearms
The patchwork of gun laws across our nation has created a system filled with legal gaps and loopholes. Peggy wants to ban assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, and ghost guns.
Business & Economy
Peggy supports eliminating tariffs that are devastating Minnesota farmers, while maintaining those protections that are vital for industries like Minnesota iron mining, and ensuring that farmers receive aid to support them as we rebuild the agricultural market access Trump has destroyed.
Elections & Campaigns
Peggy supports the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and other policies that restore and protect the democratic processes from voter suppression, election interference, and undue burdens on people who have the right to vote.
Taxes & Revenue
At a time of rising costs, seniors living on fixed incomes deserve every additional dollar they can get. Peggy supports eliminating the tax on Social Security to expand the personal budgets of seniors.
Health Care
Peggy believes healthcare is a human right and will fight for Medicare for All, ensuring providers, clinics, and hospitals have the resources to give people the care they deserve.
Reproductive Health
Your right to choose if and when to have a child should not be determined by where you live. Peggy will work tirelessly to reestablish nationwide access to reproductive healthcare, including abortion, contraception, and pre- and post-natal care.
Government Operations
Peggy supports banning stock trading for anyone elected to federal office, including members of Congress and the president. Minnesotans need public servants who are focused on serving their constituents, not their stock portfolios.
Immigration
Peggy believes that ICE is out of control and that we must dismantle the agency and reimagine an immigration system rooted in dignity, safety, and due process for all.
Labor & Employment
Peggy co-chaired the Raise the Wage campaign in Minnesota and supports a $17 federal minimum wage tied to inflation to keep up with the increased costs of food, housing, and everyday essentials.

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.
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.
