The federal budget is a statement of our nation’s priorities and should be a blueprint that reflects our shared values.

Climate Change and the Environment

The consensus view of scientists about the impact that climate change poses to our planet is alarming. Rising temperatures are projected to devastate many of our planet’s precious ecosystems, increase coastal flooding to dangerous levels, disrupt our food systems, and increase extreme weather occurrences.

Elections and Voting Rights

The right to vote is among the most fundamental rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, and any attempt to infringe upon that right poses a serious threat to the fabric of our democracy.

Gun Violence

36,000 Americans are killed by guns every year: equivalent to the population of many Ohio cities. We as a nation have become numb to that statistic. We must do more to close loopholes and advance sensible gun reform legislation.

Healthcare

All Americans should have access to affordable, high-quality healthcare, including those with pre-existing conditions.

Immigration

We are a nation of immigrants. As such, we need an immigration system that reflects those values, one that is humane and grounded in common sense and accountability. We cannot separate families, lock refugees in cages, or deny children access to food, water, or necessities.

Jobs and the Economy

America is strongest when we have a robust and thriving economy coupled with access to good-paying jobs.

Working Families and Children

We all have a responsibility to support the most vulnerable among us, which is why I’ve spent my time in Congress fighting for families. This includes supporting bills to institute paid family leave, expand the child tax credit, and provide child care for working families, because these kinds of programs are investments in the future stability of our country.
