Less culture wars, and more common ground.
"I will represent each and every one of you — from the Mississippi state line all the way to Georgia. I once heard a state legislator say, 'I represent the people that voted for me.' That is not leadership. People across this district want change and are eager for it. I am committed to being a representative who fights for you whether you voted for me or not." - Clyde Jones

Healthcare
No one should fear financial ruin, or fatal health concerns, because they aren't able to afford health insurance- a problem that effects over 10% of our population in D1.
.
Right here in our community, there are over 300,000 Alabamians caught in the gap — making too much to qualify for Medicaid, but not enough to afford coverage.
Without access to preventative care, unpaid medical care increases at our already struggling hospitals, and drives up the rate of service. Alabama has refused to expand Medicaid, and now the federal government is making it even harder. That has to change.
I believe in the expansion of Medicaid, and ACA Enhanced Premium Tax Credits to ease the burden of health care on every day Americans.
We can't snap our fingers, and have a new healthcare system. I'll commit to fixing what's broken so Americans can be cared for, while working on a new, and better, healthcare plan.
Restoring Checks & Balances
Many Americans have lost faith, and confidence, in the checks & balances that make democracy thrive. This administration has systematically removed people from positions of responsibility and placed unqualified individuals in their place.
We need representatives who will make sure your voice is heard every single day, and will represent their constituents beyond party lines.
We must get back to following constitutional law, and putting qualified leaders in the right positions, if we are going to restore transparency, and confidence in our Federal Government.
I'll go to Congress to take back our role - and ensure Americans aren't governed by executive orders.
Immigration Reform
Immigration is a complex issue, that requires we address both undocumented immigration, and the pathway to citizenship.
Families across our district are being torn apart — deported, or held in facilities far from home — by policies pushed by the very same people who depend on immigrant labor to run their businesses, and harvest their crops.
AL CD1 knows this firsthand, as we have depended on immigrant workers for generations for our agriculture, and infrastructure economies.
I will fight for real immigration reform — a clear, straightforward path for undocumented people to get documented — because the people doing the work that holds our communities together deserve better than to live in fear.
Secure borders are important, but lives and families shouldn't be put on the line to hit arrest quotas.
Support For Veterans
Having served through Desert Storm, Iraqi Freedom, and multiple tours in South Korea — and with a son currently serving in the United States Army — I understand firsthand what families go through when a loved one is in uniform. I know what it feels like to wait and worry, something that the people currently making decisions in Washington do not.
When this administration moved to reduce disability benefits for veterans whose medication had improved their condition, it was written out word for word. That was their intention for the men, and women who sacrificed for this country. It took a massive public outcry to reverse that decision — and it reversed within days. That tells us something important: when people speak up, it works.
Our veterans deserve leaders who feel the weight of every decision made on their behalf; Leaders who have skin in the game. Leaders who will fight for the benefits, care, and respect that every veteran has earned.
Worker's Rights
Young families are struggling to buy homes in a market they're priced out of, and many people are working multiple jobs just to cover basic living expenses. Much of the affordability problem for Americans stems from not being paid a livable wage.
Alabamians deserve a livable wage. In Baldwin County alone, a single person has to make at least $22 an hour to live here. If that person has a child and needs childcare, the minimum is $27. The federal minimum wage is still $7.25.
In Congress, I'll protect right to Unionize, that Alabama tries hard to fight. If it weren't for unions, we wouldn't have 40-hour work weeks, overtime pay, or paid leave- many of the things we expect as workers today.
