A look into the campaign's

Top Priorities

Each campaign priority is rooted in affordability, public health & safety, and justice.

Livable Wages & Financial Stability

AFFORDABILITY

There is no excuse for the richest country in the world to not be able to pay its people adequately. We deserve good-paying jobs that allow us to build a nest egg and afford to buy a home, a car, go to college and more.

Healthcare for All & Relief from Medical Debt

PUBLIC HEALTH & SAFETY, AFFORDABILITY

Healthcare is a right everyone deserves access to, no matter where you live or how much money you make. With millions on the brink of losing their healthcare insurance and countless families drowning in medical debt, we need action now.

Reduce the Cost of Food & Electricity

AFFORDABILITY

Affordable and healthy food shouldn't be a luxury for the rich. It's a right every community deserves to have access to. Policies that help improve access to quality, affordable food in your neighborhood and reduce the costs of your monthly bills means more money in your pockets and food on the table each day.

Rent Control & Housing

AFFORDABILITY

Rent prices are soaring and wages are stuck. Greedy corporate rental companies are taking advantage of renters every single day. It's time to stabilize rent and ensure renters have more money in their pockets month to month.

Strengthen Schools & Invest in Youth

PUBLIC HEALTH & SAFETY

Strengthening our communities begins by investing in our children's lives early and ensuring they have access to robust education and the opportunities to learn, grow and excel.

Tackle the Climate Crisis Head On

PUBLIC HEALTH & SAFETY

The climate crisis is here and harming our most vulnerable communities. From deadly flash floods to heat waves and massive wildfires, we need aggressive and large-scale action to protect ourselves and our loved ones against the devastating impact of climate catastrophes before it's too late.

Reproductive Justice

PUBLIC HEALTH & JUSTICE

True freedom is not possible without the ability to make decisions about our own bodies and reproductive health. That is why I am running for Congress: to build on the progress we have made in the Chicago legislature and fight to protect reproductive rights by securing them in federal law.

Combat Gun Violence

PUBLIC HEALTH & SAFETY

Lives are being stolen by preventable gun violence every single day. Enough with "thoughts and prayers." It's time for unapologetic, bold action to end gun violence in our cities and communities.

Pathway to Citizenship

JUSTICE

If we want to drastically and materially improve the lives of our communities, we need to strengthen the working class. Immigrants are part of that. But millions have been deliberately kept undocumented so they can be more easily exploited and used as a tool to divide working people.

Foreign Policy for the People

JUSTICE

It's simple: our taxpayer dollars should never be used to fund genocides and war crimes. Foreign policy should reflect the will of the people, not power-hungry maniacs obsessed with war, control and mass death.

Disability Justice

JUSTICE

Every issue, from housing to healthcare to education, is a disability rights issue. In Congress, I would prioritize strengthening federal disability civil rights laws and regulations that eliminate barriers to access for people with disabilities, be it in housing, jobs, transportation, schools and more.

Reparations

JUSTICE

True economic repair to balance the scales, unlock opportunity and ensure we build a stronger economy for all of us. As Congresswoman, I would fight aggressively to deliver reparations for the descendants of enslaved people.

Strengthen & Protect LGBTQIA+ Rights

JUSTICE

It is undeniable that queer and trans communities are facing an increase in assaults from our government and remain disproportionately impacted by our country's growing affordability crisis.

If elected, I would champion federal legislation that strengthens LGBTQIA+ rights and protects queer and trans communities from rising discrimination in housing, employment, healthcare, and more.

Get Corporate PACs, Special Interests and AIPAC OUT of Our Politics

JUSTICE

Corporate and special interests are a danger to our democracy, and it's time for them to be eliminated from our elections and politics. I have never and will never take money from corporate PACs, special interests, including from AIPAC, and as your Congresswoman, I would actively work to get these influences out of our politics.
