Issue Position: A Voice for Our Families

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2018

Our families deserve an advocate who will fight tirelessly for their interests on Beacon Hill. I will work hard for you because I know how hard it is to save up to buy a first house, to save up to send a kid to college, to save up for retirement. I know because this is the family I come from, and this is the family I am raising.
As a non-profit leader and area minister, I have long advocated for our families. From working with at-risk youth to preaching on the need for things like paid family medical leave, I have always fought for our communities' families, something that will remain a cornerstone of my commitments on Beacon Hill.

My Priorities:

Securing a living wage for all of the Commonwealth's workers. Nobody working 40 hours per week deserves to live in poverty.

Fighting for fairer tax policies that meet our Commonwealth's needs without burdening the middle class. I strongly support the proposed "millionaire's tax," which will moderately increase taxes on annual incomes over a million dollars in order to fund crucial investments in infrastructure and education.

Ensuring access to high-quality, affordable healthcare for all residents.
