Campaign website

Blanco's campaign website stated the following:

JAIMY ON THE ISSUES:

Pro-Life

I believe that life begins at conception and will vote accordingly to make sure that we continue to protect the unborn. I would vote for and co-sponsor the Born Alive Infants Protection Act.

Opportunity Zones

Some of our district’s neighborhoods are unfortunately struggling with job creation and are still hurting from Hurricane Harvey and now COVID-19. I will work with businesses to help stimulate more job creation in District 29.

Faith

This country was founded on the very basis of Judeo-Christian principles and as a Jewish conservative, I will always fight to protect our religious liberties. " Listen, O Israel! The Lord is our G-d, the Lord alone. And you must love the lord your G-d with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. "

Deuteronomy 6:4

Pro-2nd Amendment

I will fight for we the people to have the right to keep and bear arms, in which shall not be infringed.

Law Enforcement

Safe streets, safe schools and safe communities make America safe. Law enforcement are the heroes that run towards danger to keep those places safe and keep America safe. As a Member of Congress, I will protect law enforcement's ability to do their job, give them the resources they need and protect every community in Congressional District 29.

Veterans

Our nation's veterans are the reason why we remain free in the greatest nation on earth. The sacrifice of our men and women in uniform should be highlighted and revered by all Americans. As a Member of Congress; I will work with the President to reform the VA, allow our men and women more choice in care and to allow our veterans to get all the benefits they are entitled to.

Healthcare

I believe that we can work with the private sector to bring prescription drug prices down and protect pre-existing conditions without creating government-run healthcare and to eliminate Obamacare.

Human Trafficking

Human Trafficking is truly the modern day slavery and unfortunately, Houston is one of the major hubs in the United States. As a Member of Congress; I will hope to pass legislation to help combat the crime as well as spread awareness to our community.

Criminal Justice Reform

I believe that we must do everything we can to help victims, families and defendants have a criminal justice system that is fair to all parties involved. That is why I would have voted for the First Step Act and look forward to working with my colleagues on more ways that we can make justice fair for everyone involved in it.

Federal Budget

As a business owner, I believe in a balanced budget. I intend to work with my colleagues for a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution and will vote NO on wasteful spending or continuous resolutions. We need an actual budget for the United States.[4]
