Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?
Pause all immigration
Mass immigration drives down wages for working Americans, pushes up housing costs, worsens traffic congestion, harms our environment, brings safety problems and creates many other challenges.Universal Healthcare
Every American should have access to quality healthcare regardless of income.Foreign Policy
Put an end to wars in Iran and Ukraine. Use the money at home instead.
Stop all support for Israel and its genocidal expansionist goals
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?
Foreign Policy
It pains me to see Americans die in wars that do not benefit us at all and thousands of children killed or maimed in foreign countries. We could have done so much good if we spent these tax dollars at home instead. All of this happens because our politicians are heavily controlled by AIPAC and the Israel lobby.
