Contributing sentiments towards policy:

67% : I support renewable energy infrastructure including more solar access in communities and private homes, and EV infrastructure.
60% : What is your position on energy efficiency and renewable energy?
58% : I backed a plan to recruit and retain more high-quality police officers, fully fund local county road patrols, provide our police with state-of-the-art equipment, and invest more in strengthening relationships between communities and law enforcement.
56% : I voted to provide state funding for school safety officers for every school.
53% : Instead, I helped pass bipartisan legislation that made historic investments in education; expanded access to affordable childcare; created new career training programs that have put 100,000 Michigan workers on the path to higher paying careers; invested in roads, bridges, and clean water infrastructure; and funded our police WITHOUT RAISING TAXES.
53% : That means our investments in health care should focus on community health workers and other community-based approaches, our tax policy should include expanding our earned income tax credit to help lift families out of poverty, our seniors should not be taxed on retirement income, and our educational system should be funded at a higher level, and not with public funds going to private schools that create a two-tiered educational system in our communities.
49% : That means codifying language under the Elliot Larson Civil Rights Act to protect sexual orientation and gender identity, that means ending our sub-minimum wage for tipped employees and people with disabilities, and that means ensuring our minimum wage gets to $15 per hour as quickly as possible.
47% : Justin MendozaI believe we should invest in our public schools and ensure that taxpayer funding is not invested in private schools.
41% : Matt HallMy $2.5 Billion tax cut plan that passed the legislature raises the earned income tax credit to 20% of the federal credit, cuts the income tax to 4% and raises the amount of money you can earn tax free.
