Policy Positions

Positions as of July 1, 2026, extracted from source websites.

Climate(2)

Supports redirecting state subsidies from fossil fuels to community-owned solar, wind, and battery projects, especially in low-income and rural areas.

Reported in coverage

"Yes. Energy independence and economic development shouldn't be mutually exclusive. Community-owned renewable projects create local jobs that can't be outsourced, reduce energy costs, increase grid resilience, and position Texas as a clean energy leader. Rural and low-income communities have borne environmental costs without economic benefits—community ownership flips that script."

Supports redirecting state fossil fuel subsidies toward renewable energy alternatives.

Economy(3)

Supports raising Texas minimum wage to at least $15/hour, arguing current wage hasn't kept pace with inflation.

Reported in coverage

"Yes. Texas workers deserve wages that reflect the actual cost of living. At $7.25, our minimum wage hasn't kept pace with inflation for over 15 years. As a business owner, I know that when working families have more purchasing power, local economies thrive. A $15 minimum wage is overdue."

Supports ending corporate tax subsidies without accountability, but open to strategic investments with measurable job creation and transparency requirements.

Reported in coverage

"Yes, with reforms prioritizing accountability and community benefit. Texas hands out billions in corporate subsidies with little accountability. Any tax subsidy should require measurable job creation, clawback provisions, and full transparency. I'm not opposed to strategic investments, but I oppose corporate welfare that enriches executives while schools go underfunded and property taxes spike for homeowners."

As a business owner, supports policies that increase purchasing power for working families, benefiting local economies and small businesses.

Reported in coverage

"As a business owner, I know that when working families have more purchasing power, local economies thrive."

Education(3)

Strongly opposes school vouchers, calling them a direct attack on public education that drains resources from public schools.

Reported in coverage

"Absolutely. School vouchers are a direct attack on public education. Voucher schemes do the same thing at scale—draining resources from public schools, harming rural and low-income communities without private school alternatives, and eliminating accountability. Rather than vouchers that primarily benefit wealthy families, we should fully fund public schools and pay teachers professional wages."

Supports paying teachers professional wages as part of fully funding public schools.

Reported in coverage

"Rather than vouchers that primarily benefit wealthy families, we should fully fund public schools and pay teachers professional wages."

Supports increasing state funding for public schools, including raising the basic allotment per student, to reduce pressure on local property taxes.

Reported in coverage

"She said raising the state's basic allotment per student would reduce pressure on local property taxes while properly funding schools, arguing that districts like McKinney ISD are being forced to make up for what she views as shortcomings in state funding."

Healthcare(2)

Supports expanding access to mental health services as part of her healthcare and public safety platform.

Reported in coverage

"Brittany supports practical solutions that lower healthcare costs, protect coverage, and expand access to mental health services."

Supports protecting healthcare coverage and lowering costs for working families, seniors, and small business owners.

Reported in coverage

"Brittany supports practical solutions that lower healthcare costs, protect coverage, and expand access to mental health services."

Social Issues(2)

Opposes the use of public school voucher funds to support religious instruction in schools.

Reported in coverage

"Black also raised concerns about voucher-funded education being tied to religious instruction. 'We do not need church in the public schools,' she said."

Opposes Texas abortion restrictions, citing the implementation of a Texas abortion law after her wedding as a motivating factor for her campaign.

Reported in coverage

"She said a series of personal experiences — including a period without health insurance and, after returning from her wedding, the implementation of a Texas abortion law she criticized — made state policy feel immediate and unavoidable."
