Position on major issues

Abortion and reproductive policy

I will fight to make sure all personal healthcare decisions stay between a woman and her doctor. The government should never have a say in your healthcare plan. I will defend equal rights under the law so every American no matter who they are or who they love can live with the freedom they deserve. Who you are and where you come from should never limit how far you can go.

In Congress, I will put the American people first by addressing the affordability crisis head-on. I am certain elected leadership shouldn’t be about headlines or political fights – it should be about you. I will be a proud voice for policies that put all Americans on a path to prosperity, including preparing Americans for jobs in the 21st Century amidst the rise of AI, advocating for universal pre-K, reinstating reproductive rights, fighting inflation and ensuring Americans’ hard earned dollars go further.

Economy, jobs and wages

I will fight to make sure our public schools are fully funded, and our teachers get the support they need to make sure every student can succeed. I support universal pre-K, so every child can have an equal head start. Finally I will expand job training and apprenticeship opportunities for young people. Our economy is changing and we need to make sure our education system is invested in skill sets that will be needed in the future.

Make childcare more affordable so parents don’t have to choose between going to work and affording quality care for their children. End illegal and costly tariffs so families aren’t forced to pay higher prices for groceries, household goods, and everyday essentials.

My time working in government strengthened my conviction that we can do so much more for families’ hard work to result in the American dream – with access to a good job, reliable childcare and high quality, affordable healthcare.

Elections and voting

I’ll fight to ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks and profiting from public office. I will get big money out of politics by ending Citizens United and putting voters back at the center of our democracy. Finally, I will ban prediction-market betting by members of Congress and establish congressional term limits.

“Redistricting, to me, represents what people just hate about politics, that it seems like a solution in search of a problem instead of actually solving the problems that are keeping people up at night,” Dandiya said during a meeting over coffee in south Florida last month.

Families and social services

Healthcare

I will also stand up for our country’s working families in this critical moment as politicians in Washington weaken programs that give millions of citizens a fighting chance, such as Social Security, Medicaid and support for our veterans.

Lower prescription drug costs so Floridians can afford the lifesaving medications they need without sacrificing groceries, rent, or other essentials.

I will fight to protect Social Security and oppose any effort to cut benefits, raise the retirement age, or hand the program over to Wall Street. I will reverse Medicaid cuts so families, children, seniors, and people with disabilities can continue to get the care they need, and will protect Medicare for future generations.

Housing

Make housing and property insurance more affordable so Floridians can stay in their homes and aren’t forced into 90-minute commutes just to afford where they live.

Taxes and government spending

The fairest way to keep these programs strong for generations to come is to ask the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share — not to balance the budget on the backs of the people who built this country. And that same promise extends to our veterans, who kept their commitment to us and deserve a country that keeps its commitment to them, with the health care, benefits, and respect they’ve earned.
