Supports improving wind, water, and solar efficiency and pursuing nuclear fusion as a no-waste power source, while keeping fossil fuels available and affordable.
“We can protect our environment for the long term by improving the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of wind, water, and solar power, and finally making the power of the future a reality: nuclear fusion, which, unlike nuclear fission, leaves no waste. We can do this without shutting off or up-charging the fossil fuels that provide energy to our homes today.”

Supports a balanced budget amendment and a government-funded compounding 'national IRA' investment to pay off the national debt without raising taxes or cutting programs.
“With a balanced budget amendment to stop the debt from getting bigger, and by the government investing a few billion dollars in a 'national IRA' that grows over several decades, we can pay off the national debt and bring both inflation and interest rates down without raising taxes or cutting important programs.”

“We need more owner-occupied starter homes in Massachusetts so that rising growing families will stay and not leave the state. We must update zoning laws and cut regulations in order to make building new homes affordable... We can accomplish this without forcing our cities and towns to build low-income housing that they do not want.”

Supports high-speed rail built in the center of the Mass Turnpike right-of-way, connecting Boston to Worcester first and then to Springfield.
“It is time for high-speed rail. We can utilize the space right down the middle of the Turnpike to avoid environmental issues or eminent domain and construct high-speed rail on time and on budget. First, connect Boston to Worcester. Then expand further west to Springfield.”
