On campaign finance: I have always counted on strong grassroots support - everyday people who cared about the direction of District 1 and San Francisco. I have been tapping into and expanding that network through this campaign. We do not take corporate PAC dollars because I believe our U.S. Representative should only be beholden to the working people of CA-11.

On healthcare: I support a universal healthcare system and specifically a single payer system such as Medicare for All with appropriate transparency and accountability measures to ensure we keep our focus on providing high quality care for every person.

On taxing billionaires: I would absolutely support a tax on billionaires. I support San Francisco's June ballot measure that will increase our City's Overpaid CEO Tax which levies additional taxes on companies with executives who earn more than 100 times the salaries of their average employee. I also support the proposed California billionaire tax that would fund healthcare. I have consistently supported progressive revenue measures to ensure that those with the most resources pay their fair share, and I will continue to do so in Congress to support progressive taxation nationwide.

As an immigrant myself, I will fight for the rights of immigrants and protect San Francisco's status as a Sanctuary City. I will also fight the unjust, anti-democratic policies of the Trump Administration as it seeks to deny due process to immigrants, unlawfully target citizens and even overturn birthright citizenship and the citizenship of naturalized Americans.

Mr. Steyer's position on key issues meets the criteria for endorsement consideration.

Core Values:

• Pledges to take no money from Super PACs. He is self-funded.
• Tom Steyer has pledged to take no money from AIPAC, developers, fossil fuel corporations or insurance companies.
• Supports and will work for single-payer universal healthcare in California.
• Opposes the Israeli government and opposes monetary aid to Israel for weapons.
• Supports abolishing ICE: "I want to demolish ICE"
• Supports legislation to tax billionaires.

Self-financed. He is taking zero AIPAC or PAC money at all so not beholden to any special interests.

He is endorsed by CNA, Ro Khanna and Ash Kalra, all who support progressive values and Medicare for All, California Environmental Voters and many Environmental Organizations, Alex Lee, Mia Bonta and many more.

Tom Steyer strongly opposes the 2026 war with Iran initiated by Donald Trump, calling it an "unjustified" and "epic failure" that endangers American lives and steals funding from domestic priorities like education and health care. He argues the conflict raises gasoline and food prices, hurts the economy, and represents a dangerous escalation.

His focus throughout his townhalls has been working people, their quality of life and the CA economy. He has not equivocated or refused to answer any questions asked of him.
