Economy

Issue Position

To grow our economy, we need to invest in our workforce, education, and job training. We need to fix our crumbling infrastructure, bringing it into the 21st century. We need to invest in health care, research and development, and bolster small businesses and local manufacturers.

Education

Issue Position

Public education is a right that, through hard work, provides a lifetime of benefits. It is not a privilege reserved for a fortunate, wealthy few. I have spoken out against Republican's prior budget cuts, including slashing funding for the Department of Education by $3.8 billion. We need to invest in education and in our students, not cut already inadequate funding.

Energy

Issue Position

Enacting an energy policy that strengthens our economy and protects our health and the environment is long overdue. Texas, in particular, is well positioned to reap the benefits of the clean energy economy. Solar resource potential in Texas is among the highest in the nation and Texas already ranks first for installed wind capacity. Unfortunately, seniors, children, and those with respiratory illnesses such as asthma are at risk because of the polluters' irresponsible efforts to avoid shifts to solar and wind power.

Environment

Issue Position

From deep freezes, to flash floods, and killer hurricanes, we are living with the consequences of climate inaction—not in some distant future, but here and now. We also cannot ignore the disproportionate impact of climate change on our most vulnerable communities. As a sponsor of the Green New Deal, the Climate Change Now Act, and several other climate proposals, I am committed to bold climate action.

Guns

Issue Position

I remain as committed to ending gun violence and enacting smart gun safety measures as when I joined with my Democratic colleagues and the families of gun victims for National Speak Out Against Gun Violence in Washington, and participated in the House floor sit-in led by my distinguished former colleague and civil rights pioneer,

Health and Health Care

Issue Position

As the Chair and Founder of the House Affordable Prescription Drug Task Force, I am committed to bringing more oversight and transparency to drug pricing and supporting legislative and administrative solutions so that more families can afford the medicine they need.

Immigration

Issue Position

Instead of building walls, we must build bridges. Passing comprehensive immigration reform will grow the Texas economy—it will mean more small business startups and more graduating students. In terminating the Deferred Action Child Arrival (DACA) program, Donald Trump and Republicans have only viewed Dreamers as bargaining chips to impose other anti-immigrant proposals.

LGBTQ Rights

Issue Position

Every person deserves a safe workplace and equal employment opportunities and no one should be discriminated against for their sexual orientation or gender identity. My efforts are reflected in the Equality Texas "Spirit of Texas" Lifetime Achievement Award for my work fighting for equality and against discrimination. I am also a member of the House LGBT Caucus, the largest LGBT Equality Caucus in the history of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Veterans

Issue Position

So many veterans have planned their lives around the benefits promised to them as service members and they should not be forced to bear the weight of balancing our Nation's budget on their backs. We cannot afford to break our promises of retirement and health security they earned.And must ensure that military spouses and their families are not burdened when a service member makes the ultimate sacrifice defending our country. I am a sponsor of the Military Surviving Spouses Act, legislation to end the so-called "Widow's Tax."
