Female Rights Policy Platform
1. Ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA)
As your congressional candidate for Arizona's 7th district 2026, I am committed to ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment. The ERA is essential to ensure equality under the law, regardless of sex. Here’s how I plan to achieve this:
-
Introducing Legislation: I will introduce the "Equal Rights Amendment Ratification Act" to Congress. This act will propose an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to guarantee that equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of sex.
-
Building Bipartisan Support: I will work tirelessly to build bipartisan support for the ERA, engaging with colleagues across the aisle to secure the necessary votes for ratification.
-
Public Advocacy: I will use my platform to raise awareness about the importance of the ERA, mobilizing grassroots support and educating the public on how this amendment will benefit all Americans.
2. Protecting and Restoring Reproductive Rights
I firmly believe in a woman's right to make her own healthcare decisions. Here are my commitments:
-
Supporting Reproductive Rights: I will advocate for policies that protect and expand access to reproductive healthcare, including contraception, family planning services, and safe, legal abortion.
-
Restoring Reproductive Rights: Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, I will fight to restore and protect reproductive rights at the federal level, ensuring that women have the freedom to make decisions about their own bodies.
-
Promoting Comprehensive Healthcare: I will support legislation that provides comprehensive healthcare for women, including prenatal and postnatal care, cancer screenings, and mental health services.
3. Addressing Economic Inequality
Economic inequality disproportionately affects women, and I am dedicated to creating policies that promote economic justice:
-
Equal Pay for Equal Work: I will support and advocate for the Paycheck Fairness Act to close the gender pay gap and ensure that women receive equal pay for equal work.
-
Supporting Working Mothers: I will champion policies that provide paid family leave, affordable childcare, and workplace protections for pregnant and nursing mothers.
-
Economic Opportunities: I will work to expand access to education and job training programs for women, ensuring that they have the skills and opportunities to succeed in today’s economy.
4. Combating Gender-Based Violence
No woman should have to live in fear of violence. I am committed to combating gender-based violence through:
-
Strengthening Laws: I will support and work to strengthen laws that protect women from domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.
-
Funding Support Services: I will advocate for increased funding for shelters, counseling, and support services for survivors of gender-based violence.
-
Promoting Education and Prevention: I will support programs that educate communities about gender-based violence and promote prevention strategies.
