Womens Issues

For too long, women’s healthcare, bodily autonomy, and economic equality have been treated as political bargaining chips. John Paul's agenda means fiercely defending women’s rights as both human rights and essential economic rights for the working class.

Dignified Retirement For Every Senior

Honoring Our Promise: A Dignified Retirement for Every Senior. Our seniors spent their lives working hard, paying taxes, raising families, and building the communities we call home. A secure and dignified retirement isn't a luxury, and it certainly isn't a handout, it is a fundamental promise we made to the working class.

Big Tech And AI Data Centers

We must approach with specific rules of engagement. No data center should go into a community that doesn’t want it there. They must not drain, nor drive up the cost of electricity in the community, must secure cooling systems for computers that do not drain the resources of our fresh water, and centers should be built by union employees. I would also advocate that data centers be union shops, and pledge to not use AI to replace any union jobs.

A Bright Future For The Next Generation

Young Americans today are working harder than ever, yet the basic milestones of the American Dream, owning a home, living debt-free, and starting a family feel like they’ve been locked behind a paywall. This isn’t an accident; it’s the result of a system rigged to favor corporate monopolies over people. John Paul is ready to go to Washington to unrig that system and ensure the next generation has the freedom and stability to thrive.

Abolish Tax Cuts For The Wealthy

Create a stronger economy: Our current system benefits the top 1%, fueled by trillion-dollar tax cuts that leave working families behind. I am fighting to reverse the Trump-era tax breaks for billionaires and corporations and the top 1%. We could use those tax cuts to invest in our communities, children, infrastructure and the middle class.Our country best thrives when we put money in the hands of workers who will spend it in our communities.

End The War In Iran And The Genocide In Gaza

The U.S. government is pursuing foreign policy that prioritizes business interests over human rights and democratic movements. I firmly stand against the war in Iran, and the genocide against the Palestinian people.

Preserving Our Environment

Championing the Green New Deal: The climate crisis is the greatest existential threat of our time, but it is also our greatest economic opportunity. We must aggressively back the Green New Deal to transition our country to 100% clean, renewable energy. This isn't just a climate plan; it’s a massive infrastructure and jobs initiative. By investing in green technology, we can create millions of high-paying, union jobs right here at home and rebuild our middle class while saving our environment.

Abolishing ICE and Immigration Reform

The unconstitutional manner in which they operate, their lack of basic training and care for the human beings in their custody, and the deep way they have violated our country's trust make the organization fundamentally broken and impossible to rebuild.

Speaking Truth To Power

Speaking truth to power means being a leader who puts the people before everything. In a political system that often feels like it's a choice between two rigid machines, protecting our democracy requires the courage to call out corruption, inefficiency, and complicitness wherever they exist-even within our own ranks.

Fighting For Education

I’ve spent the last decade on the Waterford School Board fighting to ensure every child has what they need to succeed, and that starts with treating the "whole child". It’s not enough to just fund math and science; we must invest in programs like free breakfast and lunch, expanded affordable childcare, and mental health support that uplifts entire communities. As a former college educator, I also know that education is the great equalizer, which is why I’ll fight to protect and expand low-interest student loans and debt forgiveness programs while ensuring we invest equally in both skilled trades and college pathways.

Medicare For All

I believe that healthcare is a fundamental human right, not a privilege. Everyday Americans are being crushed by rising medical premiums and corporate price gouging. I am committed to achieving Medicare for All. I will fight to expand the Affordable Care Act immediately to lower costs today, while building the long term path towards Medicare For All.

Equality Is A Fundamental Right, Not A Political Debate 

Every American deserves the freedom to be who they are and love who they love without fear of discrimination, violence, or government interference. LGBTQ+ rights are fundamental human rights, and they are non-negotiable. Now more than ever we are seeing attacks by the Supreme Courts on fundamental rights. I’ll speak out with against any overturning of same sex marriag and I’ll assure that the Respect for Marraige Act (all same sex marriage is recognized in every state) is respected and recognized.

Who is funding John Paul's Campaign?

John Paul is running a grassroots campaign founded on rejecting corporate PAC, no AIPAC money and no wealthy networks. He is telling the voters of the 11th District that your vote can’t be bought. He has consistently obtained more individual contributions than any other candidate in the race; at smaller dollar amount averages. John Paul is fueled by the people, for the people.
