In the wealthiest nation on earth, the continued prevalence of food insecurity and homelessness is unacceptable. Access to food and shelter are fundamental human rights that must be guaranteed for all.
We must acknowledge that adequate nutrition is essential for the well-being of our citizens. I propose the establishment of free grocery stores providing basic, nutritious food to ensure that no American goes hungry. This initiative will directly combat food insecurity and promote health equity across our communities.
Housing should be accessible to all. I propose the creation of free one-bedroom apartments for any American in need. This will provide stability and a foundation for individuals and families to thrive, reducing the burden on shelters and social service.
To finance these essential programs, we can significantly reduce the military budget by at least 50%.
I believe that everyone capable of working should have the opportunity to gain meaningful employment. To achieve this, I support government initiatives focused on upgrading our infrastructure, which will not only create jobs but also ensure livable wages for workers. Furthermore, I advocate for free education and vocational training programs to enhance skills and empower individuals in the workforce. Additionally, we must reduce tariffs that disproportionately affect the working class, fostering a fairer economic environment. Together, these measures will build a stronger, more equitable society for all.
I advocate for automatic voter registration for all individuals when they turn 18, ensuring that participation in democracy is seamless and accessible. The abolishment of the Electoral College is essential to creating a fairer voting system that reflects the will of the people. I support federal funding for campaign finance to level the playing field for all candidates, eliminating the influence of money in politics by dismantling Citizens United and banning campaign donations entirely. Furthermore, ballot access should be equitable for all political parties, not just the two dominant ones, fostering a truly democratic process where diverse voices can be heard and represented.
I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to immigrate to the United States, fostering a more inclusive society. To support newcomers, we must establish job and language classes, as well as provide housing and food assistance during their path to citizenship. Additionally, it is crucial to address the root causes driving immigration, such as harmful sanctions and military actions, to create a more stable and equitable environment for all. By implementing these measures, we can build a stronger, more compassionate nation that values the contributions of all its residents.
We are no longer just facing climate change; we are in a state of global boiling. It is imperative that we hold big oil and other major corporations accountable for their role in this crisis. We must transition all oil companies to green energy within the next five years, investing in sustainable practices that benefit our planet. Additionally, we need to significantly increase public transportation options and develop a high-speed rail system across the country, making eco-friendly travel accessible to all. Our goal must be to achieve carbon neutrality within the next ten years, ensuring a livable future for generations to come. It’s time to act decisively and boldly for the health of our planet and its people.
Abortion is health care, and as such, it should be treated like any other medical decision between a patient and their doctor. There should be no government-imposed restrictions when the life of the mother is at risk, and the government's role should be limited to ensuring that all citizens have access to safe and affordable abortion services. Late-term abortions, when not medically necessary, should require at least one counseling session to ensure that the patient is fully informed. Ultimately, personal health decisions must remain personal, and the government should not interfere in this deeply private matter.
America must prioritize diplomacy over military action in its foreign policy. We should work to eliminate veto power in the UN Security Council and become a signatory to the International Criminal Court (ICC) and International Court of Justice (ICJ), reaffirming our commitment to global justice. Additionally, we should negotiate that countries bordering China, Russia, and the U.S. become neutral zones, with no alliances other than defensive treaties. NATO should pull back from Russia's borders and stop selling arms to Taiwan.
Furthermore, America should end its unconditional support of Israel and actively work towards a one-state solution, where both Palestinians and Israelis are included in a single democratic government that guarantees equal rights for all. It's time to close our military bases worldwide, engage in meaningful diplomacy, and foster cooperation over conflict to build a more peaceful and just world.

I know that top issues for NJ voters on a federal level are abortion, the war in Gaza, healthcare, rising
living costs, firearm regulation and immigration. All these concerns stem from two recurring issues,
ever increasing federal spending and government control. The solution? I support removing the
involvement of the US government from these areas. If you want control over your healthcare, if you
want the federal government to stop spending billions of dollars on conflicts overseas, if you want the
national debt to be reduced, if you want market regulation to stop, if you want corporate welfare to end,
if you want the blatant disregard for the Constitution to stop; then vote for representation that
understands the best person to know what is best for your life and your family, which is you. Vote for
representation that will remove the grip of government on our economy and our lives. The federal
government has a narrow, well-defined purpose in our Constitution. Let's enforce it!
The government can best serve Americans economically by staying out of the free market process. Stop subsidizing industries, abolish income tax, end tariffs, stop approving bailouts, end the federal reserve and stop regulating voluntary trade.
Voter IDs and restricting mail in voting to people with disabilities and citizens temporarily residing outside the country or similar circumstances. People have been taught that voting is a civic duty, a responsibility you have to your community and country. As faith in our system has waned, apathy towards elections has increased. I ask you to look at
voting from a different perspective. Voting is an act of protest. Voting for something new and something different, gives them something they aren’t used to - a power shift.
Immigrants are more likely to be entrepreneurs than native-born Americans. Evidence has shown that immigrants create more jobs than they “take.” If congress passes permanent pathways to citizenship immigrants are estimated to add a cumulative $1.2 trillion to the U.S. GDP over 10 years, increase the income of all Americans, and create thousands of new jobs per year. I support an “Ellis Island” style immigration system, abolishing ICE, denying entry to those who have a record of violence in their country of origin or have credible plans for violence and creating a simple, efficient path to citizenship for “unauthorized” immigrants currently residing in the US.

Abortion IS taking a human life. Pregnancy, birth and abortion will permanently alter a woman physically, emotionally, psychologically & spiritually. Zealots on both sides dismiss how their militant stone walling only hurts women and children. As a society, we have failed women. The solution is genuine empathy and rallying around vulnerable women. The answer is never more government. The second this became a campaign talking point is the moment women and children became political pawns at the highest cost. Ultimately, the federal government does not have the authority to regulate abortion. The 10th Amendment of the Constitution states that the powers not granted to the federal government, should go to the states and the people.
The endless wars. The United States should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger and stay out of global conflicts completely if only to negotiate peace. I am a committed, unwavering non-interventionist. I support an immediate end to all government funded foreign aid, ending subsidies to corporate arms dealers, withdrawing from NATO, withdrawing from the UN, bringing every single American soldier home, closing all American bases overseas, and abolishing the draft/selective service.
