Policy Lab | GA-5

Policy Lab

Collaborative policy development for housing justice, healthcare for all, and economic dignity. Draft, refine, and approve proposals through transparent community engagement.

🧪 Policy Lab

This is the collaborative engine room for campaign policy development.
Here, we draft, refine, and approve proposals across our campaign’s three North Stars:

  • 🏘️ Housing Justice
  • 🏥 Healthcare for All
  • 💼 Economic Dignity & Workers’ Rights

Every folder is open. Every proposal is visible.
We write and debate policy the same way we intend to govern—with the people.
