George Washington warned us that political parties would lead to politicians putting the interests of the party over the interests of the country. I believe this is where we are now Congressional checks and balances need to be restored to have a functioning government. I am promoting a Zero-One-Hundred Tax plan that exempts the first 100K in earnings from federal income tax.
My top priority is passing the Zero-One-Hundred Tax Plan: no income tax on the first $100,000 in earnings — for working people, small businesses, and gig workers alike. It’s not a loophole. It’s not a handout. It’s a reset. Because if you’re making less than $100K, you shouldn’t be paying federal income tax. Period. And I’m not just proposing it — I’ve built the roadmap. A full white paper on how it works, pays for itself, and lifts up working families is live at www.bowman2026.com.
A top priority is universal health coverage — not as a partisan talking point, but as a moral and economic imperative. I will use every vote, every negotiation, and every deal to make sure every American has access to quality, affordable care. I don’t care if it’s achieved through a public option like Medicare, a network of nonprofit insurers, or a smart hybrid system — the goal is coverage for all. And yes, there’s still room for private insurance. This isn’t about eliminating choice. It’s about guaranteeing a floor: no one falls through.
Leadership should be about service, not tenure. Here’s what it looks like to me: House of Representatives: Three consecutive terms (6 years) The House should be the most responsive branch. Term limits ensure fresh voices, reduce entrenched power, and keep lawmakers accountable to the people, not the backroom. Senate: Two consecutive terms (12 years) The Senate provides stability, but not immunity. A 12-year cap balances experience with renewal — long enough to master the role, not long enough to become untouchable. This isn’t about punishing good leaders — it’s about making room for them. And it starts with restoring Congress as a citizen legislature, not a career class.
Affordable housing starts with fixing the system — not just building more units. Two forces are breaking it: the federal deficit and Wall Street’s grip on our neighborhoods. First, the federal deficit. When the government borrows trillions, it floods the market with debt, driving up interest rates for everyone. Cities, counties, and housing authorities have to borrow at higher costs — making affordable housing projects too expensive to build or maintain. We can’t compete. So I’ll push to cap non-defense deficit spending and redirect savings into low-interest federal loan pools for local housing — so communities can build without bleeding on interest. Second, private equity. Giant firms are buying up single-family homes — not to live in, but to flip, rent, and extract. They’re not neighbors. They’re portfolios. And they’re pricing working families out of entire markets. I support targeted reforms:
I’m not against data centers — I’m for guardrails. They’re here to stay, and honestly, we need them. But unchecked growth risks our power grid, our water, and our communities. The good news? Data centers can do more than just consume energy — they can support it. With the right tech, they can act as virtual batteries, helping stabilize the grid during peak demand. That’s why I propose the following requirements for any new data center built in Kentucky: Off-site Solar Farms: Every data center must fund and maintain off-site solar farms that generate 100% of its average power usage. This isn’t about offsetting — it’s about matching demand with clean, local energy. Closed-Loop Cooling Only: No more drawing from rivers, lakes, or municipal water. All facilities must use closed-loop cooling systems to eliminate water waste and protect our watersheds. Battery Backup for Grid Support: Every site must include on-site battery storage — not just for uptime, but to act as a virtual power plant. These systems should be grid-responsive, helping stabilize supply during outages and peak demand. Local Approval – No Means No: If a community says no, that decision must be final. No state overrides, no backdoor deals. Real local control — with binding referendums where needed.
We cannot allow AI companies to buy books, scan them, and then destroy them. This isn’t innovation — it’s theft disguised as progress. Every book shredded is a piece of our shared culture, gone. Not borrowed. Not preserved. Destroyed. These are not just pages — they’re ideas, histories, voices that took a lifetime to write, now fed into machines and erased. This practice sets a dangerous precedent: that anything with data has value, and once the data is taken, the original can be discarded. Imagine a world where libraries are raided, archives emptied, and rare texts vanish — not stolen, but scanned and shredded in the name of 'training data.' We must draw a line. Ownership does not mean destruction. Access does not require erasure. And progress should never come at the cost of our collective memory. I will fight to ban the shredding of books for AI training — because knowledge should be preserved, not consumed.
Core Provisions: Repeal all broad-based executive tariffs on consumer goods, raw materials, and intermediate products Establish a bipartisan Tariff Impact Review Commission to evaluate future trade actions based on their effect on household affordability Replace blanket tariffs with targeted, time-limited measures only when there’s clear evidence of unfair trade practices — paired with direct support for affected workers, not price hikes for consumers Require public cost-impact disclosures for any new tariff — showing exactly how much it will raise prices for essentials like food, clothing, and building materials Why It Matters: This isn’t about free trade at any cost — it’s about fair trade that doesn’t punish working families. When the government slaps a tariff on steel, it doesn’t just affect factories — it raises the price of cars, tools, and home repairs. When it taxes imported lumber, it hits every homeowner and small contractor. The Working Families First Act puts people back at the center of trade policy — because no family should pay more at the register to fund a trade war they never signed up for.
merica’s elections are generally secure — but security isn’t a destination, it’s a practice. We can’t afford complacency. Here’s what I believe is needed: Yes, implement a national voter ID system — but do it right. Not overnight. Not as a barrier. But over time, with full federal support to ensure every citizen can obtain a free, accessible, and verifiable ID — no matter their income, location, or background. The goal isn’t restriction — it’s confidence. Confidence in the system, from all sides. Pair that with robust voter education. An informed electorate is the strongest defense against disinformation and apathy. We need civics revitalized in schools, clear ballot guides, and public campaigns that explain how elections work — not just when to vote. When people understand the process, they trust it. And let’s modernize the backend, too: Paper ballot backups in every state Auditable systems, open to scrutiny Protection for election workers — they’re public servants, not targets.
