Ortiz-Self's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[7]

Education

Excerpt: "I will prioritize funding education and reducing class sizes so children can succeed. That means finding new funding and taking a tough look at corporate tax loopholes that cost the state millions a year."

Protecting the Safety Net

Excerpt: "We need to make sure the resources our families need are available and efficient. We can’t balance budgets on the backs of our most vulnerable and it is important that we find a way of funding our priorities while ensuring seniors, veterans and struggling families get the support they need in this tough economy."

Jobs & the Economy

Excerpt: "Investments in our local transportation system is a must. Local businesses, big and small have demanded we take action. We need to reduce gridlock and invest in transit to help ease congestion along our major commuter corridors, while also protecting our environment."

Public Safety

Excerpt: "We need to make sure we are passing common sense laws and that we are investing in our local police and public safety personnel. This means partnering with local law enforcement to ensure they have the funding they need and passing common sense laws to prevent repeat DUI offenders from getting back behind the wheel."
