Criminal justice and policing

No public position found.

Liberty also means that the rule of law applies to everyone equally, regardless of skin color, wealth, or fame. It means that law enforcement at every level, including federal agencies operating in our communities, must be accountable, identifiable, and subject to the same standards we expect of any officer of the law.

Healthcare

Life also means access to healthcare that does not bankrupt families. I support single-payer, Medicare-for-all reform. It saves money, eliminates unnecessary middlemen, and treats healthcare as what it is: a basic condition of a decent life.
