  • Affordable Housing

    Supports

    Poulos supports federal action to ban hedge funds from buying single-family homes and to ban algorithmic rental pricing, treating housing as a right.

    Wall Street hedge funds are buying up homes and driving up prices. We need federal action to ban hedge funds from purchasing single-family homes and restore housing as a right, not a commodity.

  • AI Regulation & Safety

    Supports

    Poulos supports a federal AI authority to set binding rules, pre-approve high-risk systems, and regulate algorithmic management of workers.

    AI makes life-altering decisions with almost no oversight. A single federal authority would set binding rules, approve high-risk systems before release, and hold companies accountable.

  • Cost of Living & Affordability

    Supports

    Poulos supports a Universal Basic Income, backing the BOOST Act's $250/month payment to every adult as a financial floor for workers displaced by AI.

    The BOOST Act would provide $250/month to every adult. When AI eliminates jobs, UBI provides a floor to stand on-funded by those who profit from automation.

  • Environment & Sustainability

    Supports

    Poulos supports climate justice through a Green New Deal, transitioning off fossil fuels while creating union jobs.

    The climate crisis demands transformative federal action. We need the Green New Deal to rapidly transition away from fossil fuels while creating millions of good union jobs and protecting vulnerable communities.

  • Foreign Policy & National Security

    Opposes

    Poulos opposes U.S. military aid and weapons transfers to Israel and supports the Block the Bombs Act.

    End all U.S. military aid and weapons transfers to Israel, and pass the Block the Bombs Act. American tax dollars must not fund human rights violations.

  • Government Transparency & Accountability

    Supports

    Poulos supports overturning Citizens United, banning congressional stock and crypto trading, and a lifetime ban on congressional lobbying.

    Corporations are not people. Money is not speech. The Supreme Court's Citizens United decision unleashed unlimited corporate money in elections. It's time for a constitutional amendment to restore democracy.
