Tammy Murphy: Rooted out institutional racism in pregnancy & childbirth

Pregnancy and childbirth were not easy, but Tammy never questioned if she would survive, or if her babies would get the best care available. That was in great part due to her privilege and the color of her skin. So when Tammy became First Lady, she went to work and launched the Nurture NJ Maternal and Infant Health program to root out the institutional racism that Black and Brown women face in pregnancy and childbirth to reduce preventable deaths.

Glenn Elliott: Support families with comprehensive child care solutions

My mission in the Senate will be to advocate for comprehensive child care solutions that support our families, fortify our workforce, and foster our future. This means championing policies that subsidize child-care costs, enhance the quality of care, and build the infrastructure of care facilities our state desperately needs. It's time to ensure that child care becomes a cornerstone of our social infrastructure, as fundamental as the roads we travel on and the bridges that connect us.

Ty Pinkins: First priority is affordable housing for families

Housing is the largest expense for most families and for homeowners. Where a person lives affects the jobs available to them, the schools their children can attend, and the kinds of communities in which they can live. My first priority is to see that all Mississippians have the opportunity to live in affordable housing that provides safety and essential comforts to them and their families, as well as access to good jobs and safe, prosperous communities.

Dan Osborn: Mandatory bereavement leave for all workers

Mandatory bereavement leave for all workers. Too many Americans are unable to grieve their family members. Once upon a time, family-oriented firms would give workers a break; today's multinational mega-corporations will force an employee to work through the death of their own child without blinking an eye. Addressing the shortcomings of the 2022 agreement imposed on railroaders. In particular, I will work to pass legislation guaranteeing seven days of paid sick leave to all rail workers.
