Get StartedThe economy should work for working people, not just the wealthy few at the top. I support raising the federal minimum wage so that anyone who works a full-time job can afford rent, groceries, and utilities without a second job. Workers have the right to organize, bargain collectively, and strike without fear of retaliation. No full-time worker should need food stamps to get by while the companies they work for post record profits. Learn more
Every child in Michigan deserves a well-funded public school and every adult deserves a path forward without being crushed by debt. I support tuition-free public college and university, canceling student debt that has become a generational anchor dragging down families, and fully funding public schools so that a child's ZIP code does not determine the quality of their education. Teachers do one of the most important jobs in our society and deserve to be paid like it. Learn more
Michigan is home to 20 percent of the world's fresh surface water. That is not a resource to hand over to the highest bidder. I will fight to protect the Great Lakes from pollution, defend clean air standards, and invest in clean renewable energy that creates good-paying jobs right here in the district. The climate crisis is not a future problem; it is happening now in our communities. We must stop subsidizing the fossil fuel industry and start building the clean energy economy Michigan's workers deserve. Learn more
As a nurse, I have watched too many patients delay care because they couldn't afford it. Healthcare is a human right, not a privilege tied to your employer. I support Medicare for All: a single-payer system that covers every American for medical, dental, vision, and mental health, eliminates premiums and co-pays, and takes the insurance industry out of the exam room. We also must allow Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices so no one in Michigan is rationing insulin to survive. Learn more
Life in Michigan should not be this hard or this expensive. Housing is a necessity, not an investment vehicle. Working families, seniors, and young people across the 2nd District are being priced out of the communities they grew up in. I support expanding affordable housing construction, strengthening tenant protections, ending regulations that block new supply, and redirecting federal resources away from corporate agribusiness and Wall Street landlords toward the families and small farmers who actually make Michigan's communities work.

Billionaires and large corporations use every loophole available to pay lower tax rates than nurses, teachers, and factory workers. That is not a tax system, that is a rigged game. I support making the wealthiest Americans and profitable corporations pay their fair share, closing offshore tax havens, and using that revenue to fund healthcare, education, infrastructure, and the services that working families depend on every day.
