Where Powell stands

Position history

Governance

  1. Oct. 14, 2026 (in the Nebraska Public Media 2nd District debate)
    We need to get a handle on this. While I absolutely agree that Iran should never have a nuclear weapon, nothing about this conflict or the way this administration is handling it is making America any safer. On the contrary, I think it is putting us at great risk.

Healthcare

  1. Oct. 14, 2026 (in the Nebraska Public Media 2nd District debate)
    The reason that I was in opposition to the Big Beautiful bill is because it gutted Medicaid and it gutted people's access to healthcare at a time where everything is getting more expensive.
