On Corporations: Raise corporate taxes to pay for needed infrastructure

We need a comprehensive infrastructure plan. Kendra supports fixing our crumbling roads and bridges, and corporations who stash money overseas to avoid taxes should pay for it. Most politicians think infrastructure ends at roads and bridges, but our economy and our families depend on things like our electric grid, internet access and clean water, among other things. We need an infrastructure plan built for the 21st Century and beyond, not the 19th Century.

On Education: Make college affordable; against voucher schemes

The cost of a college education shouldn't weigh students down for the rest of their lives. Kendra will work to reduce interest rates on student loans and make college more affordable. We should make it easier for families to save for their children's education free of taxes. In K-12, we need to measure progress, but we've taken testing to an extreme. Kendra opposes using tax dollars for vouchers or similar schemes.

On Gun Control: Commonsense gun safety laws don't threaten 2nd Amendment

It's time for common sense when it comes to gun safety. End bump stocks, strengthen background checks, and allow the Center for Disease Control to research gun violence in a meaningful way. I support the 2nd Amendment, and common sense gun safety laws don't threaten it.

On Health Care: Expand Medicaid; lower prescription prices

Kendra believes health care is a right, not a privilege. We should lower the price of prescription drugs, big insurance companies shouldn't be able to impose lifetime caps, and families should be able to keep their children covered under their insurance until they are at least 26. Mental illness and addiction treatment need to be taken just as serious as other health care matters. Oklahoma is missing out on hundreds of millions of our own tax dollars because we refuse to expand Medicaid.

On Jobs: Equal pay for equal work, expand paid family leave

She will be a leader in fighting for equal pay for equal work and expanding paid family leave policies for all Oklahomans. It's past time we address the problems impacting Oklahoma women -- preventing domestic violence, fighting for equal pay, reducing the number of Oklahoma women in prison (which is the highest in the nation). These are Kendra Horn's priorities, and we need more people in Washington fighting for them.

On Jobs: Need to create skilled workforce, raise minimum wage

According to the Commerce Department, there are over 85,000 open jobs in Oklahoma because we don't have a skilled workforce to fill them. We need to make college affordable, encourage Oklahomans to attend CareerTech to learn job skills, and provide potential employers a qualified workforce. The lack of an educated workforce is affecting all sectors. Congress needs to ensure middle class Oklahoma families have the opportunity to succeed, including raising

On Tax Reform: Recent tax cut "scam" was for millionaires & corporations

Government should live within its means, but it also needs to pay for core services. The most recent tax scam was written to protect millionaires and corporations, instead of the middle class. It also directly threatens Social Security and Medicare, which so many rely on. We should incentivize good corporate behavior. True tax reform should help everyone, not just shareholders and CEO's.
