Debra Haaland in 2018 League of Women Voters

On Energy & Oil: Climate change is #1 issue facing the world today

A: Climate change is the number one issue facing our country and the world today. It's time to fight for a Green New Deal that gets us to 100% renewable energy and brings with it millions of good clean energy jobs.

On Gun Control: Ban assault weapons; we need national buy-back program

A: Our children's lives are more important than any companies' right to earn a profit on guns. I support a ban on the sale of assault weapons, implementation of comprehensive background checks and closing the gun show loophole. We need a national buy-back program with no questions asked. I also believe we need a comprehensive national mental health- care plan to ensure we stop violence before

On Health Care: Fight Big Pharma for cheaper prescription drugs

A: Protect ObamaCare from the Republican attacks. I believe healthcare is a human right, and so I will fight for Medicare for All. It's time to end our overpriced, inefficient, and rocky corporate health care system. I will fight Big Pharma for cheaper prescription drugs. I will work to expand access to women's health care -- including abortion and contraception.

On Immigration: I oppose deportations and bans that rip families apart

A: My Native American family has experienced the brutality of government-backed family separation. I believe in keeping families together, and therefore I oppose deportations and bans that rip families apart. I will fight for comprehensive immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship for all 11 million undocumented Americans, all of whom exemplify our American dream.
