Major Positions

End corporate personhood/Money equals speech

To address Citizens United and other US Supreme Court decisions which have given corporations our human rights, we need a 28th Constitutional amendment.  Such an amendment has been proposed - HJR48, the We The People Amendment. 

Additionally, we need an effective system of public funding for candidates running for federal offices.  Therefore, I support passage of Government By the People Act (H.R.20) and the Fair Elections Now Act (S.1538).

I would sign on immediately as a co-sponsor of all this legislation.

Health Care is a human right

 The Affordable Care Act has improved access to health insurance.  But we don't need health insurance. We need universal, affordable access to health care.  I suppose the current Congressional proposals for an improved single payer program to replace the current health "system".  Such a system has been proposed as Medicare for All Act of 2021, HR 1976, 

I support this statement by Physicians For A National Health Program:
We propose to replace the ACA with a publicly financed National Health Program that would fully cover medical care for all Americans, while lowering costs by eliminating the profit driven private insurance industry with its massive overhead.
