Issue Positions

For Presidential and Congressional candidates who refuse to provide voters with their positions, Vote Smart has researched their public records to determine their likely responses. These issue positions are from 2024.

  • "CHEYENNE WILL FIGHT FOR OUR BASIC RIGHT TO DETERMINE OUR OWN REPRODUCTIVE HEALTHCARE CHOICES." (www.cheyennehunt.com)
  • "Cheyenne supports and will work to pass the Women's Health Protection Act (WHPA). The WHPA is federal legislation that creates new legal protection for the right to provide and access abortion care, free from medically unnecessary restrictions and bans on abortion. Cheyenne has the federal policy experience and insight necessary to pass the legislation we need to rebuild the rights stolen from our future. Additionally, the surge in demand by out-of-state patients in states with legal abortion access is causing shortages and interruptions of care that require immediate attention and increased federal funding. Furthermore, she will work to remove both the Hyde Amendment language from federal programs." (www.cheyennehunt.com)
  • "The assaults on abortion accessibility and reproductive healthcare throughout the nation are attacks on our fundamental freedom as Americans to make our own healthcare decisions. These actions have profound and harmful consequences for women, families, and healthcare providers." (www.cheyennehunt.com)

  • "Close tax loopholes and increase taxes on billionaires refusing to pay their fair share" (www.cheyennehunt.com)
  • "Liz Truss tried to cut taxes for the rich and may lose her political career as a result. Why is it that the debunked theory of trickle down economics is still an acceptable strategy here? We should all be outraged when policies are designed to increase rampant wealth inequality" (x.com)

  • "Cheyenne maintains that the cornerstone of our nation is a strong, functioning democracy where every voice is heard and every vote counts. Witnessing the growing threats to our democratic institutions, she is unwavering in her commitment to protect the right to vote and ensure transparent and fair elections. In Congress, Cheyenne will support measures to safeguard the electoral process against interference, support stricter campaign finance laws to reduce the influence of money in politics, and make voting easier, not harder, through measures like automatic voter registration." (www.cheyennehunt.com)
  • "reduce the influence of money in our politics" (www.cheyennehunt.com)
  • "Justice is served in Minnesota today for #GeorgeFloyd but we have a long way to go. Arrest #BreonnaTaylor’s killers. Enact bold police reform. This isn’t enough but it gives me hope." (x.com)

  • "Fight for more affordable housing by cutting back on government red tape." (www.cheyennehunt.com)
  • "In a state where the cost of living continues to surge, Cheyenne believes that access to affordable housing is a cornerstone of a thriving community. Cheyenne maintains that no one should endure the uncertainty of homelessness or the burden of an unaffordable mortgage or rent payment. In Congress, Cheyenne will fight for substantial investment in affordable housing units and work to remove the barriers to housing construction and availability. She will prioritize expanding resources for our homeless communities, including mental health services, job training, and supportive community services. Cheyenne is committed to ensuring that housing security is not a privilege for the few but a fundamental right for all." (www.cheyennehunt.com)
  • "We need to establish an accessible housing market that serves people over landlords and investors. Removing application fees, fines for landlord corporations that unlawfully withhold rental deposits, and limiting the amount rent can be raised each year. Furthermore, the threat of large equity firms buying land to create permanent rental markets cannot be understated. Increase the number of affordable housing units required for new land developments in order to receive government contracts. By expanding the role of unions in infrastructure developments, we reduce the inefficient and expensive waste expended on private contractors, which offer low wages and poor working conditions and, thus, unsurprisingly, lower quality work. By bolstering the effort to unionize California, we can regrow the power of the working class, establish stronger protections that impact all industries, and drive down infrastructure costs. A new focus on greenspaces and green roofs, particularly in underprivileged communities, will reduce the significant harm of environmental racism while establishing a carbon capture system within our cities." (www.cheyennehunt.com)
  • "Companies are using "inflation" as a cover for their ruthless greed. As a reminder, Democrats passed legislation to hold Big Oil profiteers accountable and lower gas prices. Congressional Republicans voted against it." (x.com)
  • "Probably because the corporate overlords who fund your campaign are price gouging consumers while using "inflation" as a cover for their ruthless greed. Working families need relief, not empty platitudes" (x.com)
  • "In case you needed another sign that we need more Gen Z representation in Congress, SCOTUS just overturned Biden's student debt relief plan & weakened basic protections for the LGBTQ community. We can't afford to "wait our turn"." (x.com)
