Redirect rental subsidies to homebuying

Opposes ICE raids and mass deportations

Gilbert strongly opposes workplace ICE raids and mass deportation policies, arguing that they tear families apart and harm working communities. He advocates defunding deportation programs and redirecting those federal funds into community investments like universal childcare.

• End funding for mass deportation policies and ICE raids immediately.
• Redirect federal spending from enforcement into local community programs.
• Protect working families and children from being separated by immigration arrests.

Supports mass deportations and ending H-1B

Brown supports strict border enforcement, mass deportations of undocumented immigrants, and an end to all amnesty proposals. Additionally, she calls for eliminating the H-1B visa program to prevent foreign workers from undercutting American wages.

• Enforce immigration law through mass deportations of undocumented individuals.
• Oppose amnesty schemes that reward lawbreaking.
• Eliminate the H-1B visa program to protect domestic American jobs and wages.

“The H-1B program has been abused for decades to undercut American wages and replace qualified U.S. citizens with cheaper foreign labor. It’s time to end it.”

“Enforce the law, deport those who came here illegally, and end the amnesty schemes that reward lawbreaking and punish Americans who play by the rules.”

Tax relief for workers and small business aid

Gilbert advocates eliminating federal income taxes for working families by indexing tax brackets to local income realities while shifting IRS audit resources to the ultra-wealthy. He also sponsors the BUILD Business Act to assist entrepreneurs through startup grants, low-interest SBA loans, reduced red tape, and profit-sharing incentives.

• Eliminate federal income taxes for working families based on local income levels.
• Direct IRS enforcement and audits toward ultra-wealthy taxpayers rather than gig workers.
• Pass the BUILD Business Act to provide startup grants, low-interest SBA loans, and red tape reductions.

“Oliver supports common sense tax policies indexed to what families in our communities actually earn, so that relief reaches the people who need it most and keeps money in working people’s hands.”

“The IRS should be spending more time auditing the ultra-wealthy than scrutinizing an Uber driver’s gas deduction.”
