Each issue has its own range of views. A position is marked on that range only when the candidate's own statement clearly matches one option; there is no overall left–right score.
Health Care
His campaign website says every U.S. citizen should have access to quality health care by default and that a single-payer system is the best way to ensure it.2
- One government plan for everyone (Medicare for All)
- Add a government plan that anyone can choose to buy
- Keep the current mix of private and public coverage, including the ACA
- Fewer federal insurance rules and more private plan choices, with aid paid to individuals
Housing
His campaign website says private equity companies should not own residential property.2
- Tighten the ban, such as by covering smaller investors or ending exceptions
- Keep the 2026 law as passed
- Loosen or repeal the ban
His campaign website says rents should be tied to an area's prevailing wages and short-term rentals should be regulated.2
Foreign Policy and Defense
His campaign website says the United States should immediately stop hostilities against Iran and use its economic and diplomatic leverage to bring about permanent ceasefires in Gaza, Ukraine and other countries.2
§4Financial disclosures
Why this matters: Federal candidates and members of Congress must report their assets, income, debts and outside jobs, and members must report stock trades. These filings show possible conflicts of interest.
Senate candidates and senators file with the Senate's own disclosure system, which asks each visitor to agree to its terms before searching, so we can't link straight to a filing. You can search for Douglas P. Marsh at efdsearch.senate.gov4.
