Our country faces so many challenges today, and we’ll face new ones tomorrow. But I have faith that with kindness, ingenuity, and good sense, we can work together to find positive solutions that will help make all our lives – and the lives of our children and grandchildren – a little bit better.
ECONOMY
Increase financial stability and economic opportunities for our citizens means increasing the minimum wage to a living wage, ensuring equal wages for equal work regardless of gender or race, and eliminating unfair taxes.
VOTING RIGHTS
Expand access to absentee voting, provide curbside voting for seniors and those with disabilities, ease voter ID requirements designed to suppress minority voting participation, and ensure our legislative districts are fairly drawn.
ENVIRONMENT
Alabama is blessed to have plentiful natural resources that contribute to the health of our economy and enrich our lives. Whether it’s the Gulf Coast beaches that bring in tourists year-round, or agricultural industry that provides vital crops and materials, our state greatly benefits from curbing pollution to positively impact our climate and our economy.
EDUCATION
Improve the quality and accessibility of our public education system. We must provide our personnel the wages and respect they deserve, and provide our students with safe, modern, and comfortable facilities.
HEALTH CARE
Facilitate affordable, accessible, and quality health care for every citizen regardless of income. No American should be uninsured or underinsured. Adequate healthcare is not just a human right – it has a significant impact on the health of our nation’s economy as well.
EQUALITY
Ensure equal respect and equal treatment under the law for every American. End the pay gap for women and minorities, end legal discrimination against individuals with disabilities and those who are LGBTQ, and ensure our lawmakers are held accountable for voting against these principles.
