Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?
Yes. Principled compromise is a core component of effective governance.
The Constitution says that all bills for raising revenue must originate in the House. What role would this power play in your priorities if elected?
There is no challenge more grave than restoring our Constitutionally required balance of power. It is incumbent on Congress to reclaim this balance. Constituents cannot abide Representatives who abdicate their solemn responsibilities, thus giving away the people’s rightful voice.
What role should the United States government have in the development or use of artificial intelligence?
The most important role of the US Government is to protect and advocate for the people of the United States. Given that AI stands to be among the most significant and impactful developments in human history, across nearly all aspects of society, it is critical for the government to regulate and vigilantly monitor this technology.
What legislation would you enact related to election administration in the United States?
Same Day Voter registration. Universal mail in voting. And potentially either a federal holiday for Election Day (which would need to be well designed / implemented to avoid potential unintended adverse impacts) or more widespread multi - day voting.
How should the U.S. House use its investigative powers?
The right and proper role of Congress is to provide oversight. Investigative powers should be used as necessary in support of such.
