Peggy Flanagan

Economy
On the economy, Flanagan backs a $17 federal minimum wage indexed to inflation, national paid family and medical leave, universal childcare, and expanding the Social Security payroll tax cap so higher earners pay proportionally more.

Health
She backs a transition toward Medicare for All, opposes insurance prior-authorization denials, opposes Medicaid cuts, and calls for Medicare to negotiate the price of all prescription drugs rather than a limited list.

Agriculture/Food
She commits to reversing tariff damage to export markets, passing a full five-year Farm Bill, supporting farmers' right to repair their own equipment, and biofuels development including sustainable aviation fuel.

Immigration
She takes a critical line on current enforcement, saying "ICE is out of control," while also backing a pathway to legal status for undocumented residents of two decades or more.

Education
She calls for reversing cuts to Head Start, publicly funded universal Pre-K, full federal funding of special-education law, and loan forgiveness for people entering teaching or healthcare.

Infrastructure
On housing, she backs federal legislation to spur new construction, a ban on large corporate landlords and hedge funds buying single-family homes, and federal funding to remove lead pipes.

Security
On public safety, she calls for banning assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, and untraceable "ghost guns," alongside continued police funding paired with re-entry and recidivism-reduction programs.
