Real Issues

It’s time our workweek reflected the reality of modern life and modern productivity. A four-day workweek means more time, better health, and stronger families without cutting pay. Let’s rewrite the rules to give Americans the freedom they’ve already earned.

Supporting Labor Unions

I will be a U.S. Representative who listens to Labor, a champion for Davis-Bacon / prevailing wages and works hard to strengthen Labor Unions in Illinois and across our nation.

Women's Reproductive Freedoms

No politician should control your body or your future. Reproductive rights are human rights and they’re on the ballot.

Economic Policy

For too long, American workers have powered our prosperity without sharing in it. I’m fighting for fair wages, strong unions, and an economy that rewards work not just wealth. It’s time we rebuild the middle class from the bottom up.

Animal Rights Policy

Animals feel joy, fear, and pain and they deserve protection. I’m fighting for policies that reflect their place in our lives. Justice should extend beyond the human, and in Congress, I’ll make sure it does.

Transit that Works

Public transit is a public good and it should work for everyone. I’ll fight for faster trains, safer buses, and fully funded systems that connect our communities, cut emissions, and get working people where they need to go.

Affordable Housing

Everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to live. But across Illinois, families are being priced out, pushed out, or left out entirely. I’m fighting for zoning reform, housing investment, tenant protections, and smart conversions to make housing work for all of us.

Fighting Trump & MAGA

The greatest threat to democracy isn’t just from the outside it’s from rigged systems that put power above people. I’m fighting to end gerrymandering, fix the courts, and break the grip of big money so our government actually works for us, not just the few.

Climate Justice, Jobs Now

As an Environmental Professional I know that Climate change isn’t just a future threat it’s a crisis we’re living through. With real leadership and investment in climate resilience, we can build a safer, carbon-negative future and create good jobs along the way.

Public Education Policy

Every child deserves a great education no matter their zip code. I’ll fight for fully funded public schools, better pay for teachers, and pathways to college, trades, and careers. Education should be a ladder to opportunity, not a battleground for political games.

Healthcare for All

Healthcare is a human rightnot a luxury. I support lower drug prices, expanded mental health care, and a clear path to universal coverage that leaves no one behind. No one should have to choose between seeing a doctor and paying rentand under my plan, they won’t have to.

Working Families

Raising a family shouldn’t mean falling behind. I’m fighting for paid leave, affordable childcare, and fair wages so working parents can care for their kids without risking their jobs or their futures.

Social Security & Medicare

Social Security isn’t charity it’s a promise earned by the American worker. In 2023 alone, it lifted 27.6 million people out of poverty. I’ll fight to protect it, expand it, and make the wealthy pay their fair share so it’s there for generations to come.

LGBTQ Universal Policy

LGBTQ+ rights are human rights and protecting them makes our communities stronger for everyone. I’m fighting for inclusive policies, safe schools, and public spaces that work for all people. From healthcare to housing to workplace protections, dignity shouldn’t depend on your gender or who you love.

Voting Rights Policy

Voting is the foundation of a free society but it’s under attack. I’ll fight to protect voting rights, end voter suppression, and make sure every American can cast a ballot easily, safely, and without barriers. Democracy only works when everyone has a voice.
