I support a district-wide light rail line because affordable, reliable transit connects people to jobs, schools, health care, and opportunity reducing traffic, cutting pollution, and strengthening our local economy.

I support no tax on tips and no tax on Social Security no loopholes, caps, or fine print. Tips are earned wages, and Social Security is money people paid into over a lifetime. Taxing either is unfair to workers and seniors.

I support district-wide free community college because education should open doors, not create lifelong debt. Making college tuition-free expands opportunity, strengthens our workforce, and gives everyone regardless of income a fair shot at success.

Protect seniors and their families from predatory debt growth by placing firm limits on how interest compounds in reverse mortgages, ensuring these products remain a safe retirement tool not a wealth-stripping trap.

I support district-wide student debt relief because crushing loans hold people back from building stable lives, buying homes, starting families, and investing in our local economy.

Guarantee free, reliable bus transportation across California’s 26th Congressional District to reduce cost-of-living pressures, improve access to jobs and education, cut traffic and emissions, and ensure mobility for seniors, students, workers, and people with disabilities.

I support small business tax reform and relief because local businesses are the backbone of our district and shouldn’t be buried in paperwork or punished for creating jobs.

Protect older Americans from financial scams, fraud, and exploitation by creating strong federal safeguards, early-warning systems, and real consequences for scammers so seniors can live with dignity, security, and peace of mind.

This policy is especially critical for seniors living in California’s 26th Congressional District, where fixed incomes, housing costs, and digital isolation increase vulnerability.

I support restoring and expanding the SALT deduction because CA-26 families were unfairly taxed twice for living in a high-cost state. Bringing SALT back puts real money back into working families’ pockets and supports local communities.

Deliver real tax relief for working and middle-class families while restoring fairness to a tax system that currently rewards wealth, complexity, and loopholes over honest work.

This policy is designed to directly benefit families in California’s 26th Congressional District, where high housing costs and everyday expenses have outpaced wages.
