Do you support the creation of a more human-centered economy, where our economic metrics are defined not just by GDP, the stock market, and outdated unemployment formulas, but by signs of our actual progress, such as health, mental health, childhood success rates, income inequality, rates of entrepreneurship, and environmental sustainability?

Yes

Do you support Iowa adopting laws to give Iowans more control over the personal information that businesses collect about them, such as was done by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018?

No

In both the 2019 and 2020 Iowa legislative sessions, critical voting and election measures were passed by late-night amendments, with curtailed debate, and passed along party lines. If you are elected to state or federal legislature can we count on you to oppose back-handed actions like these?
