Overview > Key Actions
Seven programs answer what voters asked for. Each is built to produce something people can see, name and feel before the 2028 cycle begins.
The seven programs
Program 1: Affordability: Kitchen Table Relief Package
Tariff relief on everyday goods, lower utility bills, competition enforcement and honest pricing: a cost-of-living package built on what 2026 voters said.
Program 2: American Dream: Build and Care Initiative
More homes, affordable child care and paths from school to good jobs: a plan to put the American Dream back in reach for young and working families.
Program 3: Health Care: Health Cost Guarantee
Stable premiums, capped drug costs, protection from medical debt and better access to care, built around voters’ top health worry: cost.
Program 4: Corruption and Accountability: Clean Government and Accountability Act
A stock trading ban, ethics rules, pardon reform, lobbying disclosure and restored congressional checks, matched to voters’ concern about corruption.
Program 5: Immigration: Secure and Fair Border Compact
Border capacity paired with enforcement guardrails, detention standards and legal work pathways: a balanced plan matched to how voters see immigration.
Program 6: AI Issues: Fair Share Grid and Worker Shield
Make data centers pay their own grid costs, require community consent, hold high-risk AI to account and protect workers, while keeping energy reliable and affordable.
Program 7: Public Safety: Safe and Trusted Communities
Focused violence reduction, more serious crimes solved, professional policing, and prevention that works: public safety policy that earns trust.
Three principles behind every program
- Visible over clever. A line on a utility bill or a lower pharmacy receipt beats a complex tax provision voters never notice.
- Prices first, then structure. Short-term relief buys time; structural reforms such as housing supply and competition prevent the next squeeze.
- Pass what can pass. Each program includes bipartisan pieces, pieces that can ride must-pass bills, and pieces states can enact on their own.

Cost tiers are planning estimates, not scored figures, and should be checked with budget staff and the Congressional Budget Office.
Design options
| Option | What it means | Trade-off |
| One omnibus package | Combine all seven programs in a single bill. | One big moment; one veto ends everything. |
| Seven standalone bills | Move each program separately. | Each can succeed or fail alone; harder to tell one story. |
| Phased waves (recommended) | Ethics and affordability first, then health and housing, then immigration, AI and public safety, riding must-pass bills where possible. | Early wins build credibility for the harder fights. |
Success metrics
| Measure | Baseline | Target |
| Programs with at least one component enacted | 0 of 7 | 5 of 7 by end of 2027 |
| Components enacted by states through the partner track | None | Grocery tax, ratepayer and zoning reforms in multiple states |
| Quarterly public scorecard | None | Published on schedule with results and failures |
