Get StartedHuman sovereignty is the principle that every person has the fundamental right to control their own life, body, beliefs, and future without unnecessary government interference. It is rooted in dignity, personal freedom, and equal protection under the law. This includes a woman’s right to choose and the broader principle of bodily autonomy. Personal medical decisions should remain between individuals and their healthcare providers, not politicians. Protecting reproductive freedom means protecting privacy, healthcare access, and the ability of individuals to make deeply personal decisions about their own bodies and lives. Learn more
Our first responders and veterans put their lives on the line for all of us. Too often, politicians send young Americans to fight and serve, then fail to provide the support they need when they return home. Veterans and first responders deserve more than thanks — they deserve respect, resources, and real support. We must fund life-saving equipment and mental health services for first responders so they can do their jobs safely and return home healthy. Veterans need expanded access to VA healthcare, transitional housing, suicide prevention programs, and alternative therapies that address both physical and mental health challenges. Learn more
Supporting veterans also means helping them build successful civilian lives. That includes job training, apprenticeships, and access to high-demand career pathways so those who served our country can thrive after their service. Our communities are stronger when the people who protect and serve are fully supported, respected, and given the tools they need to succeed. Learn more
As a representative, I will use federal and state resources to strengthen our local economy, create opportunity, and ensure that jobs benefit people, not just corporate profits. Wall Street and corporate CEOs often automate work to cut costs while leaving workers behind. Florida’s 6th District deserves an economy that lifts up our communities, rewards hard work and prepares residents for the future. Learn more
Families across Florida’s 6th District are being squeezed by rising housing costs, soaring insurance premiums, expensive healthcare, and higher prices on everyday essentials. This is not just inflation. It is corporate greed, market consolidation, and a political system that too often puts special interests ahead of working families. When corporations dominate housing, insurance, healthcare, and food supply chains, prices go up while accountability goes down. Learn more
Curriculum should be based on facts and educational standards, not political ideology. All students deserve access to fully funded programs, including those for special needs students, homeless children, and English language learners. At the same time, schools must prepare students for the future. That means expanding vocational, technical, and STEM training to equip students with the skills for high-demand careers, local jobs, and lifelong success. Learn more
Our schools should serve students, parents, and teachers not political agendas or special interests. Children deserve safe, well-resourced classrooms where they can learn and grow without being used as pawns in ideological battles. We must increase teacher pay, expand federal incentives, and ensure rural schools have the staff they need. Florida currently ranks near the bottom in the nation for teacher compensation, and that must change. Learn more
Corporate developers often build in high risk and environmentally sensitive areas such as flood plains, wetlands, and vulnerable coastal zones. When these areas are overdeveloped, the consequences do not fall on the developers. They fall on homeowners and local communities through increased flooding, environmental damage, and rising insurance premiums. As risk increases, insurance companies raise rates or leave the market, driving up costs for everyone, even those in lower risk areas. We need policies that put community safety, environmental science, and long-term resilience first. That means expanding federal resilience grants for coastal and inland flood prone areas, tying infrastructure funding to wetlands preservation, stormwater management, and green infrastructure that reduces flood risk and protects natural buffers that help stabilize insurance costs over time. Learn more
We must reduce military interventions unless the United States is directly threatened and avoid “forever wars” that cost lives and taxpayer dollars without advancing real security. Diplomacy, multilateral engagement, and economic partnerships should take priority over costly ground conflicts. Learn more
Regional allies, including Europe and neighboring countries, must take responsibility for their own security while the U.S. Focuses on genuine strategic threats. U.S. Aid to allies should be conditioned on adherence to international law and human rights, ensuring that American support reflects our values and promotes global stability rather than unchecked military spending. Learn more
At the same time, insider trading by elected officials and unlimited corporate money in politics, accelerated by the Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United v. FEC, have deepened public distrust and weakened the voice of everyday people. Learn more
The goal is straightforward: respect Second Amendment rights while ensuring families, schools, and communities are safer. Responsible ownership and sensible regulations can coexist. Learn more
The gun lobby profits while families face preventable tragedies every year. We believe law-abiding citizens should keep their rights, but those rights come with responsibility. Protecting communities and preventing unnecessary harm does not mean taking away guns from responsible owners. It means sensible, enforceable rules that save lives. That includes requiring firearm safety training and competency testing for all new gun purchases, so every owner understands how to handle and store weapons safely. Stronger background checks must prevent access to guns by individuals with histories of serious violence or mental health crises that put others at risk. Learn more
Healthcare costs for seniors also need to be addressed. Negotiating prescription drug prices will reinvest savings into stronger benefits and cost-of-living adjustments that actually keep pace with the rising costs families face. Medicare should cover the care people need without leaving seniors vulnerable to skyrocketing premiums or surprise expenses. Learn more
Human sovereignty also means defending each person’s right to make their own healthcare choices more broadly. Whether it is reproductive care, medical treatment, or other personal health decisions, individuals deserve autonomy and respect. Learn more
Housing and environmental policy must work together. We should promote affordable housing that is safe, resilient, and community driven, while discouraging development in critical risk areas that worsen flooding, environmental damage, and insurance instability. Learn more
We must create clear pathways to citizenship for immigrants who contribute to our communities and economy. Law-abiding residents who pay taxes, work hard, and follow the rules deserve the chance to fully participate in society. Finally, we need lasting, bipartisan reform. Policies should balance security with fairness, protect human rights, and give families and communities the stability they need to thrive. A smart, secure, and fair immigration system strengthens Florida, our nation, and our economy. Learn more
Our immigration system is broken. Families live in fear, students are threatened with deportation, and hardworking people are trapped in uncertainty. Immigration policy must prioritize human dignity, due process, and community security while keeping our country safe. Borders should be secure, but security does not mean punishing families. Modern technology and proper staffing can protect communities without harming those seeking a better life. Enforcement should focus on genuine threats to public safety, not law-abiding families, students, or essential workers. Learn more
The system was built to protect working families, but decades of loopholes and corporate influence have left it imbalanced. Middle-class workers pay in full, while the wealthiest Americans often stop contributing after a fraction of their income. Meanwhile, drug companies, insurers, and Wall Street profit at the expense of seniors and retirees. That is not fair. That is not sustainable. We will restore fairness without asking working families to pay more. That means asking the wealthiest Americans to contribute their fair share. Social Security taxes should apply to earnings over 600,000, closing the loopholes that let billionaires avoid paying into the system that millions rely on. It means cracking down on fraud, modernizing the system, and making sure every dollar collected goes to supporting benefits for seniors, retirees, and future generations. Learn more
A fair day’s work deserves a fair wage. Profitable companies should not be paying wages that leave working people struggling to get by. We need policies that reflect the real cost of living, so that full-time work provides stability, not uncertainty. At the same time, workplaces must be safe and dignified, with real enforcement to ensure employers meet their obligations to the people they employ. Learn more
We have a responsibility to protect the people who keep this country running. Every worker deserves fair pay, safe conditions, and the freedom to speak up without fear. That means defending the right to organize, strengthening unions, and holding corporations accountable when they retaliate against workers for standing up for themselves. Learn more
