Policy Positions
Positions as of July 12, 2026, extracted from source websites.
Criminal Justice(4)
Opposes the death penalty, arguing the government cannot be trusted to execute people and that innocent people have been sentenced to death.
"I don't trust government officials enough to allow them to kill people. Many innocent people have been sentenced to death. Premeditated murderers should face life in prison without parole instead."
Strongly supports ending the War on Drugs and legalizing all drugs starting with marijuana, arguing adults should be allowed to put any substances in their bodies they choose.
"I will work to repeal all of America's drug laws, starting with those against marijuana. It must be taken off the schedule of controlled substances immediately."
Opposes mandatory minimum sentences and the high U.S. incarceration rate, supporting sentencing reform including giving jurors the right to set sentences.
"I am opposed to mandatory minimum sentences. I support giving jurors the right to set the sentence in all cases — up to a maximum allowed by law."
Advocates for jury reform and ending practices that stack the court system against defendants, though does not explicitly address cash bail.
"I support the end of jury tampering by both prosecution and defense by seating the first twelve jurors who don't know the parties involved and have no financial stake in the outcome of the case."
Economy(6)
Opposes the federal income tax and advocates for its total repeal along with abolishing the IRS, with no replacement tax.
"I will work to repeal the income tax, abolish the IRS, and replace them with nothing."
Opposes tariffs as taxes on consumers and supports free trade, calling for Congress to reclaim authority over trade from the executive branch.
"I believe in free trade. Tariffs are taxes on consumers and interfere with voluntary exchange. President Trump's arbitrary tariffs demonstrate why Congress must retain authority over taxes and trade rather than delegating emergency powers to the Executive."
Strongly opposes the growing national debt and budget deficits, arguing only Libertarians will cut spending and stop adding to the debt.
"Only Libertarians will cut spending, cut the deficit, and stop adding to this insane debt level that is totally unsustainable."
Opposes corporate taxes as part of a broader opposition to all taxes, advocating for massive spending cuts and tax reductions across the board.
"By reducing the federal government to its proper level, we could not only do away with the income tax, but the estate tax, capital gains tax and Social Security tax as well."
Implicitly opposes government-mandated labor regulations as part of a broader free-market philosophy opposing government intervention in the economy.
"Leave people alone and they will grow and prosper. Government officials pass law after law, tax after tax, and regulation after regulation."
Implicitly supports cryptocurrency and financial privacy through opposition to digital ID requirements that integrate banking records and government surveillance of financial activity.
"I oppose digital identification requirements that integrate personal ID, medical records, banking records, biometric data, or other unique identifiers, either mandated by or for use by government."
Education(4)
Supports charter schools, homeschooling, and tuition tax credits for private school families to promote competition in education.
"The best alternative would be tuition tax credits for parents (or anyone else) who send a child to private school. This will force government schools to compete and will enable parents to educate their kids their way."
Opposes federal K-12 funding and involvement, arguing more money from Washington has failed to improve educational outcomes.
"More money from Washington has given us three generations of Americans who lack basic education in science, math, history, geography, and English composition and literature."
Opposes federal involvement in curriculum by advocating for abolishing the Department of Education and returning control to parents and local communities.
"I will work to abolish the federal Department of Education. It doesn't educate anyone, but merely takes taxpayer money and imposes massive amounts of regulations and mandates on local schools."
Opposes federal curriculum mandates and regulations, supporting separation of school and state.
"We need the complete separation of school and state in order to guarantee decent education for future generations."

"Libertarians strongly defend the 2nd Amendment and support the right to keep and bear arms for self-defense."
Opposes gun control laws generally and would work to repeal existing ones, which implicitly includes background check expansions.
"I will work to repeal existing gun control laws, and will oppose any attempts to limit the gun ownership of law-abiding Americans."
Healthcare(3)
Opposes government-provided universal healthcare, arguing healthcare is a service that should be provided by free-market competition.
"Health care is not a right or a privilege. It's a service, and like other goods and services, it should be provided by free-market competition."
Identifies Medicare and Medicaid as root causes of the healthcare crisis by placing extraordinary financial demands on the system.
"Medicare and Medicaid - Placing extraordinary financial demands on the system"
Opposes Medicare and Medicaid, arguing they have placed extraordinary financial demands on the healthcare system and caused a healthcare crisis.

Opposes forced deportations and family separations, calling them cruel and a violation of rights.
"Forced deportations and cruel family separations"
Supports dramatically expanding legal immigration through an Ellis Island-style system allowing free movement of people across international borders.
"That means the free movement of people across international borders, with an Ellis-Island-style immigration system where foreigners are welcome to come here but must be checked for a criminal record and communicable diseases before being let in."
Supports allowing immigrants to work immediately upon arrival rather than waiting for work permits or being placed on welfare.
