§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.
Family and Social Policy
Her campaign website says she will work to make childcare more affordable, so that parents are not forced to choose between working and being able to afford quality care.7
Economy, Jobs and Trade

Social Security and Medicare
Her campaign website says she will defend Social Security and oppose any move to reduce benefits, raise the retirement age or turn the program over to Wall Street.7
- Raise the full retirement age
- Keep it at 67
Health Care
Her campaign website says she will reverse Medicaid cuts.7
- Reduce federal Medicaid spending further, such as by giving states fixed yearly amounts (block grants or per-person limits)

Her campaign website says she will defend equal rights under the law so that all Americans, regardless of who they are or who they love, can live in freedom.7
§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.

Groups spending independently reported $904,999 supporting and $6,622,601 opposing Pia Dandiya this cycle, primary and general combined, in the 24- and 48-hour reports the law requires for larger expenditures, filed through October 26, 2026.10
| Group | Supporting | Opposing |
|---|---|---|
| NO GOING BACK PAC INC. | — | $6,150,393 |
| Progressive Turnout Project | $396,342 | — |

Smaller expenditures that appear only on a group's regular monthly or quarterly report aren't in these totals, so the full amounts can be somewhat higher. When a group amends a report, only its latest version is counted.
§5Financial 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.
