PRIORITIES

An Economy that Works for All of Us

Hard work should pay off for everyone, but the system is rigged to benefit greedy corporations and the ultra-wealthy. Working families are having trouble keeping up no matter how hard we try. We need an economy with real opportunity, fair wages, union rights, job training, and thriving small businesses so everyone can prosper and build their Michigan dreams.

Healthcare for All

Our healthcare system is broken. Michiganders have a right to health, well-being, and human dignity. Let’s build a smart new system - with a public option - that guarantees healthcare for everyone.

Paid Family and Medical Leave

The months after birth or adoption are essential for parents and infants. Everyone should have protected, paid time off from work to care for a new child, an ill loved one, or their own health emergency.

.

Free Childcare

Raising a family has never been more expensive. Parents need free, high-quality childcare near where they live and work so they don’t have to choose between raising kids and building careers.

Pre-K for All and World-Class Education

Every four-year-old should have access to public, high-quality, local pre-K so they arrive at kindergarten ready to learn. Let’s prepare our kids for future success with the best teachers at state-of-the-art schools.

Bring Down Housing Costs

The dream of home ownership is out of reach for too many Michiganders. Let’s build affordable housing, modernize zoning, and drive down rents, so people build financial security and generational wealth.
