Positions on Key Issues

Sourced from campaign websites, interviews, debates, and public statements.

Housing
Housing is unaffordable Insurance is out of control Everyday life is getting harder It doesn’t have to be this way.
People are working harder than ever… but falling further behind. Housing is unaffordable Insurance is out of control Everyday life is getting harder It doesn’t have to be this way. I’m running for Governor because Florida deserves leadership that puts people first. Florida should work for the people who live here not just those who profit from it. JOIN THE MOVEMENT Before profit. Before power.

Education
In education. HERE’S WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE: Invest in education that supports both students and teachers So classrooms are strong, stable, and future-focused Make healthcare more accessible, transparent, and human-centered So people get care not confusion Support job growth that aligns with real cost of living So working hard actually leads to real financial progress Restore trust through transparent, accountable leadership So people know their government is working for them WHAT THIS MEANS
Government will serve people again not systems. For too long, decisions have been made based on systems, politics, and profit not people. And people feel it. In education. In healthcare. In everyday life. It’s time to bring leadership back to what actually matters. HERE’S WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE: Invest in education that supports both students and teachers So classrooms are strong, stable, and future-focused Make healthcare more accessible, transparent, and human-centered So people get care not confusion Support job growth that aligns with real cost of living So working hard actually leads to real financial progress Restore trust through transparent, accountable leadership So people know their government is working for them WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU: A government that listens A system that respects your reality Leadership that puts your life not politics first Leadership that's not motivated by profit

Insurance
Every challenge Florida faces, rising costs, strained schools, insurance instability, loss of trust traces back to one question: Who are we really serving?
Before we talk about policy, we must talk about priorities. Government was never meant to serve money, institutions, or political machines. It was meant to serve people. Over time, something shifted. Decisions began to favor profit over protection. Growth over stability. Systems over families. This movement begins by restoring the proper order. With me, people come first. Every challenge Florida faces, rising costs, strained schools, insurance instability, loss of trust traces back to one question: Who are we really serving? Humanity Over the Dollar is a commitment to put families, children, workers, and communities back at the center of leadership. Because when leadership remembers who it serves, trust returns. THE SOLUTION
