§3What they've said on the issues
Why this matters: These are positions the candidate has stated publicly — on their campaign website or in public statements — summarized in plain words with a link to where they said it. Issues they haven't spoken about publicly are left out.
Drafted by AI from the public sources cited. Each sentence links to its source.
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.
Housing
His campaign website says he would support policies that increase the housing supply, speed up approvals and make it easier to build starter homes, apartments near transit and affordable units.5
Immigration
His campaign website says he supports stronger border security, tougher action against cartels and smugglers, and a lawful, swift immigration process that works for employers, families and the economy.5
Economy, Jobs and Trade
His campaign website says he would reduce red tape, improve access to capital and make federal programs easier for small businesses to use, and supports workforce and apprenticeship programs.5
§4Money
Why this matters: Campaigns report where their money comes from and how much they have left. Outside groups that spend on their own, without coordinating with the campaign, report that too.
