Real Solutions for Real People

We need leaders who listen, understand real-life challenges, and take action that makes a difference. This campaign is about practical solutions that put people—not corporations—first.

Rooted in the Foundation of SMART Government

Jon’s vision for governance is rooted in the SMART government framework, which focuses on targeted impact in healthcare, workforce, and fiscal governance—aimed at truly restoring public confidence in government.

I’m restoring the American Dream through a two-pronged approach:

Suitcase Suitcase

Putting money back in working peoples’ pockets

Thumbs-up Thumbs-up

Treating the pursuit of happiness as a human right

Star Star

The policies that will help achieve these two lofty goals are…

Suitcase Suitcase

Primary Care Vouchers

as a foundation for a healthier America

Too many families skip basic care because they can’t afford the bill. Primary care vouchers remove that barrier so small health issues don’t turn into medical or financial crises.

Suitcase Suitcase

Catastrophic Medicaid

because your health shouldn’t break you financially

One medical emergency shouldn’t wipe out a family’s savings. Catastrophic Medicaid steps in for the worst-case scenarios so people can recover without going bankrupt.

Suitcase Suitcase

Doctor Loan Forgiveness

to encourage Medicaid acceptance

Communities are losing doctors because Medicaid patients pay less than private insurance. Loan forgiveness brings physicians back into underserved areas and restores access to care.

Suitcase Suitcase

Peer-to-Peer Home Loans

to enable first-time homebuyers

Young buyers are being outbid by banks and investors. Peer-to-peer home loans let retirees finance home purchases directly, lowering prices and keeping wealth in the middle class instead of funneling it to Wall Street.

Suitcase Suitcase

Enable Local Entrepreneurship

to grow our local economy

Small business owners shouldn’t need corporate connections to get started. Supporting local entrepreneurs builds homegrown jobs and keeps economic power close to the people.

Suitcase Suitcase

Respect for Local Labor

because working Americas need a fair chance

Working people feel like the economy is stacked against them. Respecting and protecting local labor ensures families can earn a real living and build toward their future.

Suitcase Suitcase

Predatory Student Loan Crackdown

because our future isn’t for profit

Too many young people are trapped by loans they didn’t fully understand. Cracking down on predatory practices protects students and restores education as a ladder up instead of a trap door.

Thumbs-up Thumbs-up

Fair, Balanced, & Streamlined Immigration

To build a stronger America

Families and businesses are stuck navigating a broken immigration system. A streamlined process is needed that honors dignity and continues to grow our economy.

Thumbs-up Thumbs-up

AI Transparency

To keep communication real

People deserve to know when they’re talking to a machine. AI transparency rules protect trust, authenticity, and the integrity of public conversation.

Thumbs-up Thumbs-up

Access to Affordable Healthcare

Because healthcare is a human right

Nobody should have to choose between paying rent and seeing a doctor. Affordable healthcare allows Americans the freedom to live without fear of medical debt.

Thumbs-up Thumbs-up

Defeating Project 2025

A real plan for a free America

Project 2025 threatens personal freedoms and local autonomy.  Stopping it protects civil rights and ensures Americans, not extremists, shape the nation’s future.
