Civil Rights and Democracy

If the liberties and freedoms of one are at stake, then the liberties and freedoms of us all are at stake. I will stand to protect every person’s rights, liberties, and freedoms, regardless of race, religion, or gender. Too many people sacrificed and fought to secure the freedoms we enjoy today, and they are too precious to let slip away. I will defend everyone’s First Amendment rights, whether we agree with one another or not. I will protect your right to vote, your right to bear arms, and your right to privacy. I support legislation like the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to strengthen and protect everyAmerican’s right to vote, and the Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act to ensure Americans’ privacy and constitutional protections are respected in the digital age.
