Property insurance Leans agree· stated position

Statement: "The state should intervene more directly in the property-insurance market (rate caps, expanding Citizens, stricter insurer regulation) rather than relying mainly on market-based reforms."

"We need real insurance reform that increases competition, holds insurers accountable, and lowers costs while investing in resilience to reduce future claims."

He backs incentives for workforce housing near jobs and transit, renter protections against abusive fees, and rental-application transparency.

Abortion Strongly agrees· stated position

He says he trusts women, families and doctors to make medical decisions and supports protecting access to reproductive health care.

He would strengthen community health centers, expand preventive and mental health care and reduce prescription costs.

Growth & development Leans agree· stated position

Statement: "Growth and development should be slowed or more tightly regulated (higher impact fees, density limits, stronger local control)."

Elections & voting Leans agree· stated position

Statement: "Voting should be made easier (mail voting, drop boxes, restoring voting rights) rather than adding new restrictions."
