Positions on Key Issues

Sourced from campaign websites and public statements. These are the candidate's own claims as published, not independently verified by Activate Pinellas unless marked.

Housing
Florida’s homeless crisis, veteran displacement, addiction epidemic, and single-parent instability are not separate problems, they are symptoms of broken structure. Scripture Show More Florida’s homeless crisis, veteran displacement, addiction epidemic, and single-parent instability are not separate problems, they are symptoms of broken structure.

Florida’s homeless crisis, veteran displacement, addiction epidemic, and single-parent instability are not separate problems, they are symptoms of broken structure. Compassion without accountability has left too many on the streets, too many veterans untreated for PTSD, too many fathers absent, and too many mothers overwhelmed. Scripture Show More Florida’s homeless crisis, veteran displacement, addiction epidemic, and single-parent instability are not separate problems, they are symptoms of broken structure. Compassion without accountability has left too many on the streets, too many veterans untreated for PTSD, too many fathers absent, and too many mothers overwhelmed. Scripture commands both mercy and justice: “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.” — Proverbs 31:8 (NIV) “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” — Galatians 6:2 (NIV) But it also teaches responsibility: “For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: ‘The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.’” — 2 Thessalonians 3:10 (NIV) Florida will not abandon the weary, but we will no longer fund cycles that keep people dependent. We will build structured recovery campuses, veteran-first housing initiatives, work-based transitional communities, and enforceable child-support modernization systems that protect children and stabilize families. If you are able to work, you will work. “The Lord God took the man and p

Education
Our current foster care system too often moves children from home to home, disrupting education, mental health, and identity formation. I am proposing a campus-based model of care, structured residential learning communities with live-in house parents, educational continuity from early childhood through graduation, and a clear pathway into college or skilled trade careers. These campuses would provide stability, mentorship, trauma-informed care, academic excellence, vocational training, and spir
Florida’s most vulnerable children deserve more than temporary placement, they deserve permanence, structure, and dignity. Our current foster care system too often moves children from home to home, disrupting education, mental health, and identity formation. I am proposing a campus-based model of care, structured residential learning communities with live-in house parents, educational continuity from early childhood through graduation, and a clear pathway into college or skilled trade careers. This is not charity. This is infrastructure. These campuses would provide stability, mentorship, trauma-informed care, academic excellence, vocational training, and spiritual and moral grounding. Every child deserves consistency. Every child deserves safety. Every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, not just survive. Scripture reminds us of our responsibility: “Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.” — Psalm 82:3 (NIV) And again: “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress…” — James 1:27 (NIV) Government must not replace family, but when family fails, government must provide structure, accountability, and long-term stability. No child should age out of the system without education, mentorship, and direction. This initiative ensures that Florida becomes the model state for foster reform — where children are not shuffled through a broken system but raised within a

Immigration
I am a legal immigrant, a mother, and a doctor. I have lived the immigration system.
Florida deserves law AND mercy. Truth AND compassion. Order AND dignity. I am a legal immigrant, a mother, and a doctor. I have lived the immigration system. I have worked alongside veterans to ensure they receive real support — not empty promises. I have helped rescue and protect children from exploitation and trafficking. I have partnered with NGOs to serve the homeless — not to enable dependency, but to restore dignity and opportunity. I have worked within underserved communities to provide resources, structure, and systems that break cycles of generational poverty. I believe in solutions — not slogans. Systems — not chaos. Empowerment — not dependence. I am running to secure Florida’s future with serious leadership rooted in responsibility and results. Stand with me Unshakable Conviction.

Public Safety
Human trafficking and child exploitation are not distant problems, they are present realities. This initiative establishes a strengthened, fully coordinated state-level anti-trafficking task force integrating law enforcement, cybercrime units, child protective services, border security collaboration, and prosecutorial oversight.
Human trafficking and child exploitation are not distant problems, they are present realities. Florida’s ports, tourism industry, digital infrastructure, and interstate access make it both a destination and transit state for trafficking networks. We must confront this crisis with coordination, enforcement, and unwavering resolve. This initiative establishes a strengthened, fully coordinated state-level anti-trafficking task force integrating law enforcement, cybercrime units, child protective services, border security collaboration, and prosecutorial oversight. We will prioritize dismantling organized trafficking networks, enhancing digital investigation capabilities, and ensuring aggressive prosecution of offenders. But enforcement alone is not enough. We must also strengthen prevention and victim recovery. That means safe housing, trauma-informed rehabilitation programs, long-term counseling support, and education pathways for survivors. Children rescued from exploitation should not return to instability — they should be restored into structured environments that protect their dignity and rebuild their futures. Scripture is clear: “Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.” — Psalm 82:4 (NIV) And: “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed.” — Proverbs 31:8–9 (NLT) Government has a fundamental responsibility: protect the innocent and punish the wicked. There will be zero tolerance for child expl
