Democracy: What needs to be done to protect our democracy and restore faith in our institutions?

To protect our democracy, we need to be more transparent and reduce racism and bigotry. America is a great nation but some people like are turning America into a ROGUE nation by trying to overthrow the government. There are some Justices who are acting like puppets and seem to be scared to interpet the law if it offends certain party members. We have work to do to restore faith in our institutions

Immigration: What policy changes are needed so the U.S. immigration system is both effective and humane?

Let the immigrants into America, give them legal status and let them pay taxes like everyone else. It is hypocrisy to act like we dont need the hispanics who come into this country. These people perform jobs that no one else want to do. We let them into our country and give them individual tax identification numbers and then cry foul! implement comprehensive immigration reform and keep it moving.

Cost of Living: What actions can Congress take to bring down the cost of living for Americans?

Hire more people and produce more products! We have more consumers and less producers. Over 117,000 illegal immigrants crossed the border in May 2024. These people need food, medicine, houses, schools etc. If we are allowing these many people to cross the border each month of course we will have a problem with supply and demand.

Reproductive Rights: What should Congress do to protect reproductive rights?

Codify Roe Vs. Wade and make it fedeeral law so states cannot frestrict a woman's right to make decisions regarding their bodies. I also believe that women should be responsible and accountable. If a woman have sex without using contraceptives and get pregnant, I believe that they should have the baby even if they give the baby up for adoption.

Climate Change: What measures need to be taken at the federal level to address the impacts of climate change?

We need to continue to research renewable and green energy while phasing out the use of fossil fuels. Our ozone layer has thinned and we see the collateral consequences it has had on our weather patterns. The last threwe years have been the hottest years on record. This is no coincidence. We've had more tornadoes and hurricanes than ever! All of this is a result of climate change!
