immigration
Immigration is a rising epidemic that seems near impossible to take on. We want to change that. Hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants come to America each year, while a fraction of that number of people come through legally. building a wall is not the solution, but increasing the ability to enter the country legally. We plan to fund more college programs for immigration judges and officers to help more people come into America legally. It is important to all of us as a nation to show to the world not only that we are inviting, but also that we want to help
rich/poor gap
The rich-poor gap is steadily increasing, and we plan to do something about it. First, we want to raise the minimum wage to $13/hour. Next, we want to expand the earned income tax.
healthcare
We believe that everyone deserves healthcare. However, some can provide more than others. We want to provide healthcare for children, single-parent families, and other less fortunate families. This healthcare will be funded through a tax that applies more to those who can handle it.
abortion
Life is precious, and we need to protect it at all costs. The life of the unborn is not ours to take, but there are some circumstances where abortion isn't wrong. We believe that abortion should only be permitted in the third trimester, but only when delivery can be proven to be fatal to the baby or the mother. The miracle of life is a beautiful thing, and it is our job to protect our nation's future.
climate change
Climate change is a rising problem in the world that must be addressed. My first course of action would be to opt into the Paris Agreement. After that, we would instate a nationwide plastic ban. This ban will include plastic bags, straws, disposable cups, styrofoam cups, and other harmful materials. In addition, we want to make car emissions testing more strict, with a tax break for people with fuel-efficient vehicles.
Marijuana
legalization
Marijuana is a helpful plant when used in the right way. The legalization of recreational use marijuana has been a slippery slope that has unfortunately gone too far. We believe that the good effects of marijuana are seen only when prescribed medically. We intend to legalize the use of marijuana everywhere, but restrict the distribution to stritly medical purposes
stemcell testing
As time goes on, so does the advancement of technology. However, the progress of science should not infringe on the life of others. We seek to continue to fund research for stem cell testing, but only on fully consenting and developed adults. Stem cell research is promising and exciting, and we want to support scientific advancements.
mexican drug cartels
It's no surprise that America has a drug problem. Lots of drugs are being imported from other countries and are being sold on the streets everywhere. In order to help solve this problem, our policy for immigration will help separate the immigrants who deserve a place and those who don't. In addition, we plan to increase the overall surveillance of the border instead of personnel.
school funding
We believe in the betterment of the students because the students of today are our future. in order to enhance the abilities of the educational system, we intend to make school funding follow and depend on the success and drive of the student. America's best must be rewarded for their efforts.
