9>9 Personal answerPro-choice, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions |
Social › Gay Marriage
9>9 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Equal Pay
9>9 Personal answerNo, there are too many other variables such as education, experience, and tenure that determine a fair salary |
Domestic Policy › Gun Control
9>9 Personal answerExpand existing restrictions to gun show sales and provide funding to cover lapses in background checks/protection orders. There are more guns than people and a deeply entrenched and passionate pro-gun community, so at this point the most pragmatic thing to do is add more layers of friction when someone wants to buy a gun. |
Crime › Police Body Cameras
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Social › Marital Rape
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Healthcare › Drug Price Regulation

Education › Critical Race Theory in K-12 Education
9>9 Personal answerTeach a holistic version of American history which emphasizes both are successes and our failures and interrogates the tension between the two - a pluralistic society can not long survive in an environment in which public education reduces people into categories based on immutable traits like race and sex. |
Immigration › Immigration
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Education › Student Loans
9>9 Personal answerRaising taxes on the rich solely to reduce interest rates on student loans seems like a poor way to use that money.

Highe |

Immigration › Deporting Criminal Immigrants
9>9 Personal answerNo, only if they have entered the country illegally |

9>9 Personal answerIllegal immigrants who would like to access public healthcare should be allowed to do so provided they begin taking steps to become a citizen - illegal immigrants should be taxed at a higher rate to subsidize public healthcare, with frequent reminders that pursuing legitimate citizenship would reduce their tax burden. |
Elections › Campaign Finance
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Healthcare › Single-Payer Healthcare
9>9 Personal answerYes, private companies should not be able to profit off of healthcare |

Immigration › Border Wall
9>9 Personal answerOpen borders are a losing proposition for low-skill American workers, but illegal immigrants will always find a way in unless we enact border policies that most Americans (and anyone with a conscience) cannot stomach. We need to attack this problem at the source by working with countries where illegal immigrants come from to improve the conditions that cause them to flee. At the same time, refugees and those pursuing legitimate paths to immigration should be treated humanely and with dignity. |

Crime › Defunding the Police
9>9 Personal answerPolice departments need adequate resources to hire and train officers to increase the quality of their departments so they do more harm than good for a community. I think that alternative community engagement programs have some merit but I do not trust non-profits to responsibly use public funds. Crime does happen and there will always be a need for armed police officers but cultural and legal reforms are necessary. |
