Topic headings are Vote Book’s; quoted words are each candidate’s own, with the source under each one. “As reported” items are a news outlet’s description, not an exact quote.
Immigration & border
While our costs skyrocket and our immigrant neighbors face a mass deportation machine, the same career politicians have held onto power for decades without delivering the change we need. I’m running for Congress to bring a new generation of leadership to Washington—one with the guts to pass Medicare for All, take on the billionaire class, and finally protect our communities from the Trump administration.
Tax Billionaires
I'll vote to make billionaires pay their fair share and close corporate loopholes so we can invest that money back into the communities that need it.
An Economy for Working Families
Working families are getting squeezed from every direction — groceries, rent, child care, gas, prescriptions. I know what that’s like. I grew up in a low-income household, helped raise my 15 siblings. Today, I teach and my husband works 12-hour shifts so our family can have a safety net.
An Economy for Working Families
In Congress, I’ll take on the corporations and special interests driving up costs to pad their profits.
Jobs, wages & cost of living
In Congress, I’ll fight to break up the monopolies that are crushing our neighborhood shops and put money back into the hands of local employers so they can hire locally, stay open, and keep our economy rooted in the people who live here.
Good Jobs and the Right to Organize
I will fight to raise the minimum wage and tie it to inflation so it keeps up with the real cost of living. I'll also champion paid family leave, paid sick days, and workers' right to organize. As a proud union member (CFA), I'll push to pass the PRO Act and fully fund the National Labor Relations Board so workers have the power to fight back.
Mai Vang is not a current member of Congress, so there is no congressional roll-call record to show. State legislative or local records are not yet compiled.
