My political priorities in public safety include investing in community policing programs, increasing funding for mental health and addiction services, and implementing common-sense gun control measures to reduce gun violence.

In terms of access to healthcare, my priorities include expanding Medicaid coverage, lowering prescription drug costs, and ensuring that all individuals have access to quality healthcare regardless of their income or pre-existing conditions.

For affordable housing, my priorities include increasing funding for affordable housing programs, implementing rent control measures to prevent gentrification and displacement, and creating incentives for developers to build more affordable housing units.

Overall, I believe that ensuring the safety and well-being of all individuals in our society should be a top priority for our government, and I will work to advocate for policies that support these goals.

One of the most pressing housing-related issues in Wisconsin is the lack of affordable housing options, particularly in urban areas. This has led to a growing number of individuals and families struggling to find safe and affordable housing, leading to issues such as homelessness and housing instability.

To address this issue, I would support policies that increase funding for affordable housing development, provide incentives for developers to build more affordable units, and strengthen tenant protections to prevent displacement. Additionally, I would support policies that promote equitable access to housing, such as expanding housing voucher programs and investing in supportive housing services for individuals experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity. By taking a comprehensive approach to addressing the affordable housing crisis, we can work towards ensuring that all Wisconsinites have access to safe and affordable housing.
We have been very fortunate that legislation have finally implemented a transparent and nonpartisan redistricting process, to ensure fair representation for voters. This would help prevent gerrymandering and ensure that districts are drawn in a way that accurately reflects the population and provides equal representation for all voters. Thank you to all involved in the policy making to create fair maps in Wisconsin.
1. Investing in renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and decrease carbon emissions. 2. Implementing stricter regulations on industrial pollution to protect air and water quality. 3. Encouraging sustainable agriculture practices to reduce water and soil pollution. 4. Promoting energy efficiency in buildings and transportation to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. 5. Increasing funding for conservation efforts and land preservation to protect natural habitats and biodiversity. 6. Educating the public about the importance of environmental sustainability and ways individuals can reduce their impact on the environment.
As an individual, there are several actions I can take to ensure that our schools have the resources to improve outcomes for all students, including those with disabilities:

1. Advocate for increased funding for special education programs and services within schools. 2. Support and participate in fundraising efforts for schools to provide additional resources for students with disabilities. 3. Volunteer my time and skills to support students with disabilities in their academic and social development. 4. Stay informed about local and national education policies and advocate for policies that prioritize the needs of students with disabilities. 5. Collaborate with teachers, administrators, and other stakeholders to identify and address the specific needs of students with disabilities in our schools.

By taking these actions, I can contribute to creating a more inclusive and supportive educational environment for all students, including those with disabilities.
