Get StartedThrough policies that require employers to publicly list salaries and anti-discrimination legislation, we can reduce and eventually do away with the wage gap that leaves women, trans folks, and people of color behind. Learn more
The American justice system has wreaked havoc on Black Americans for generations. We need to legalize marijuana at the federal level, expunge criminal records, and otherwise work to undo the damage of the War on Drugs upon our communities. Fighting crime only comes by fighting the root causes of poverty, not with incarceration-first policy. Learn more
Our schools are overcrowded, our teachers are underpaid, and our students don’t get the time and attention they need to thrive in an educational environment. I will support higher wages for teachers and bring more money home to support school construction and after-school programs. Our children are the legacy we leave behind; we must give them opportunities through a well-rounded education. Learn more
Student loan debt is an enormous burden on younger generations. This burden prevents our youth from opening businesses, starting families, and accruing wealth. I support reductions in student loan debt by capping the interest rate to 1.5% and implementing free higher education for HBCU’s and state colleges that serve underrepresented students. Learn more

Mass shootings have become an American epidemic, yet many politicians offer only thoughts and prayers rather than policy solutions. By renewing the ban on assault rifles and requiring national background checks on all firearm purchases, we can save lives and end this epidemic of mass murder. Learn more
The disparities in maternal health in this country are a national tragedy. As your Congresswoman, I will aid the Black Maternity Caucus in passing legislation to make life safer for Black women and Black children in the United States. Learn more
With healthcare & medicine costs spiraling out of control, Medicare-For-All is a national fix. Lower premiums, cheaper medication, and guaranteed access to care are human rights that I will fight for in Congress. The Affordable Care Act was a vital first step and we honor Obama’s greatest legacy by expanding healthcare access. Learn more
Donald Trump’s vicious, racist attacks on immigrants through rhetoric and policy have been extraordinarily cruel. I am an ally to immigrant families and will support immigration reform that eases the process for migrants to join our country without fear. I support the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, an agency that deals in separating families and mistreating children. Learn more
Childcare is a tremendous cost to young families. As your Congresswoman, I will support legislation to lower childcare costs for all families. Strong families build strong communities. Learn more
