Issue Positions

As an acute care physician serving families, veterans, and active-duty communities, I’ve seen how cost and access barriers force people to delay care. I’ll fight to lower premiums, reduce prescription drug costs, protect Medicaid, and expand access to affordable, quality care.

Too many families are stretched thin by rising housing costs, healthcare bills, and everyday expenses. I’ll focus on practical affordability solutions that raise wages, support small businesses, and lower the bills working people face.

Veterans deserve timely care, earned benefits, and real support—without red tape. I’ll fight to strengthen access to healthcare and mental health services so no veteran is stuck waiting months for care.

Every child deserves a great public education—no matter their ZIP code. I’ll fight for strong neighborhood schools, support for teachers, and pathways that prepare students for college, careers, and service.

We can protect responsible gun ownership and reduce gun violence at the same time. I’ll support commonsense steps that keep weapons out of the hands of people who pose a real danger and help communities prevent tragedies.

Strong communities are safe communities. I’ll support law enforcement and first responders while investing in prevention—mental health response, violence interruption, and programs that reduce crime and build trust.

As the daughter of immigrants who built their lives in Hampton Roads, I believe we can secure our borders and treat people humanely. We need an immigration system that is orderly, fair, and consistent with American values.

With Hampton Roads’ military presence and national security footprint, readiness and support for service members and families must be a priority. I’ll back smart security policy and strong alliances that keep Americans safe.

We can protect our coast, strengthen resilience, and grow good jobs through clean energy innovation. I’ll support solutions that cut pollution, reduce risk from storms and flooding, and keep Virginia thriving.

Seniors have earned dignity and security. I’ll protect Social Security and Medicare, lower prescription costs, and support services that help older Virginians live independently.

Virginia agriculture is vital to our economy and way of life. I’ll fight for policies that strengthen farmers’ stability, expand market access, and protect the land and water agriculture depends on.

Hampton Roads is defined by service. I’ll stand with active-duty families, protect readiness, and ensure service members have the benefits, housing stability, and support they’ve earned.
