Get StartedFight any attempt by Congress to strip states and cities of the power to protect their residents from AI harms before strong federal guardrails are in place. I passed AI oversight legislation in New York City — I know what it looks like when local government acts to protect people, and I will not let Washington take that away. Learn more
Audit every AI system that makes decisions about your housing, your job, or your loan before it goes live — not after the damage is done. Learn more
Require AI companies to label all fake audio and video so you always know when a voice or image is not real. Learn more
Families will have access to childcare regardless of income. Child care is economic infrastructure — essential to working families and small businesses alike. Learn more
Provide rapid humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians especially food, water, medicine, and aid to rebuilt infrastructure such as plumbing, electricity, and clean water access. Learn more
The United States must recommit to multilateralism. International institutions like the UN, the ICC, and NATO offer pathways to resolving conflicts through diplomacy rather than force. Learn more
In Congress, I will fight to: Demand a durable, permanent ceasefire in Gaza. Learn more
End unconditional U.S. Military aid to Israel and demand full compliance with international humanitarian law. Learn more
Focus on prenatal care that prioritizes the mother: home visits that include lactation consultants, postpartum depression care, conscious care. Learn more
Healthcare for All, so everyone is covered — period. Nobody should go bankrupt because they got sick. Nobody should ration insulin. Nobody should skip a doctor’s visit because they can’t afford the copay. Health insurance in this country is a maze of paperwork, denials, and costs designed to discourage you from getting care. Learn more
Retire with Dignity Age in place with homecare. Even if you worked low-wage jobs your entire life, it’s time to increase social safety nets, invest in home care workers and senior centers, and create culturally appropriate senior care for all. Learn more
Pass the Safe Schools Act so no one can be arrested at a school, hospital, or church. Learn more
Prohibit by law: no community raids, no family separation as a deterrent, no for-profit detention. Learn more
I will push for legislation to: Introduce the Sanctuary City Protection Act: prohibit the federal government from conditioning any federal funding on local immigration enforcement cooperation. Learn more

I will push for legislation to: Vote to abolish ICE's civil enforcement arm. Learn more
I will push for legislation to: End the jailing of children and families. Learn more
Maintain and strengthen export controls on advanced AI chips to countries that would use them against us. China cannot build the AI systems it needs for military targeting, mass surveillance, or cyberwarfare without access to American-made semiconductors. We should not give them that access. Learn more
Require AI companies to inform policymakers before deploying high-risk systems. The public and its representatives deserve advance notice, not post-hoc damage control. Learn more
Lower prices by negotiating bulk internet contracts for apartment buildings so landlords can't pass inflated costs on to tenants. Learn more
Restore and expand federal broadband subsidies to ensure cost is never a barrier to access. Learn more
In Congress, I will fight to expand what we know works: Guarantee internet access for low-income families nationwide. Learn more
Hold telecom companies accountable and regulate the internet like the utility it is. Learn more
Protect women and children by criminalizing “nudify” tools, giving survivors of deepfakes the right to sue, and creating liability for platforms and app stores that host them. Learn more
Funerals shouldn’t cause bankruptcy. Grief alone is already enough to bear. No family should have to choose between mourning their loved one and financial ruin. We need to expand access to financial assistance for funeral expenses for all families. Learn more
