  I will champion a federal right to an abortion through the Women’s Health Protection Act, and preserve access to medication abortion through telehealth. I support repealing the Hyde Amendment to ensure that abortion care is covered through public health insurance programs – the right to an abortion should not depend on whether you have the financial resources to access it.

  Goodlander agreed with Van Ostern, saying the Second Amendment doesn’t prohibit commonsense solutions. She said she’ll fight to ban assault weapons and bump stocks, enact universal background checks and close loopholes to make sure guns don’t get into the hands of people who shouldn’t have them. In addition, Goodlander vowed she’d take on the National Rifle Association and the gun industry, which she said have gone “unchecked” for too long, and she’ll take a proactive stance by investing in more mental health services.

  The fight for a fair deal also means combating climate change, standing up to Big Oil, and working to make America the world’s clean energy superpower. Maggie believes deeply in advancing environmental justice and was proud to help to launch the Justice Department’s first-ever Office of Environmental Justice dedicated to protecting overburdened and underserved communities across America from the harm caused by pollution, environmental crimes, and the climate crisis. In Congress, Maggie will be on the frontlines of the fight against our climate crisis and work to close the tax loopholes that have allowed Big Oil to make record profits while hardworking people are facing record prices at the pumps.

  American companies are the most innovative in the world. Advancements in artificial intelligence and blockchain technology carry enormous promise. Artificial intelligence could help us meet some of our country’s biggest challenges – from the climate crisis to deadly diseases like cancer. Blockchain technologies and their applications could help empower Americans to be the true owners of our own data and be true stakeholders in the digital economy. But like most Granite Staters, Maggie is deeply concerned about the ways in which some in the tech industry have exploited sensitive personal data, put our children, consumers, and workers at risk, violated civil rights, and tilted the playing field to undermine competition and crush small businesses. We need to modernize our laws and regulations to empower the innovation that America needs to remain the global leader in the development of these important technologies – not countries like China or Russia.
