I will fight to: Strengthen enforcement of the Packers and Stockyards Act Support legislation like the Meat Packing Special Investigator Act Support the Livestock Consolidation Research Act Enforce antitrust laws against seed, fertilizer, equipment, and meatpacking monopolies Stop vertical market control that traps farmers into buying from the same dominant corporations year after year If a farmer has only 1 or 2 buyers, that is not a free market.

I support: Stronger USDA and DOJ scrutiny of seed market concentration Antitrust enforcement against vertically integrated agribusiness Seed competition and transparency rules Public investment in land-grant university seed research Protection for independent and regional seed producers I would be careful about saying we can simply “ban” every non-reproducing or patented seed immediately, because seed patent law and biotechnology are complicated.

This approach: Expands supply without displacement Helps homeowners build income and stability Keeps housing development local and community-based 5.
Take On Corporate Consolidation and Speculation We cannot solve the housing crisis without addressing corporate control of the housing market.
Large institutional investors, hedge funds, and private equity firms are buying up homes at scale, driving up prices and pushing families out.

Restore Financial Guardrails in Housing We have seen what happens when housing markets are left unchecked.

Issue Position
Again and again, I have heard the same message: people want an economy where one job is enough, where workers have a voice on the job, where unions are respected, and where hard work is rewarded with dignity and security.
Whether we are fighting for fair wages, collective bargaining rights, safe jobsites, public education, affordable healthcare, or investments in the skilled trades, I look forward to standing shoulder-to-shoulder with organized labor in the years ahead.
Protecting the rights of all workers, especially those with collective bargaining agreements, is necessary to provide upward mobility and quality of life for everyone in Missouri.
Issue Position
But I will not support a future where workers are replaced, artists are robbed, communities pay the utility bills leading to poverty and home insecurity, and corporations walk away with the profits.
Protect Workers First in the AI Economy AI must be built around workers, not used against them.
The AFL-CIO’s Workers First Initiative on AI calls for stronger labor rights, collective bargaining, worker input, transparency, accountability, copyright protection, retraining, and safeguards against harmful workplace AI.
I will fight for: Worker notice before AI is deployed in the workplace Bargaining rights over AI -driven job changes Restrictions on AI surveillance and automated discipline Retraining and wage support for displaced workers A tax framework for AI systems that replace human labor If an algorithm replaces a worker, the company should not get a free pass while the community absorbs the damage.

Hold Platforms and Data Brokers Accountable Right now, too much of our digital economy is built on extraction.

Issue Position
But we need to build it with guardrails, with worker power, with privacy rights, with clean energy, and with a simple principle at the center: The people who create value should not be the last to benefit from it.
