Geek's Policies

  • Investing in the Future
    Federally funded research helped create the internet, GPS, semiconductors, mRNA vaccines, and industries that have created millions of jobs and added trillions of dollars to our economy. The U.S. needs a robust and strategic R&D enterprise to lead in emerging technologies and economic growth.
  • Keeping People Healthy
    Routine childhood vaccinations save 4 million lives per year. Public health policy must be grounded in science, with federal leadership supporting vaccination, preventing disease, and utilizing medical expertise.
  • Winning the Third Industrial Revolution
    The global clean energy transition will create more than $20 trillion in economic opportunity. The U.S. must modernize our energy system, accelerate decarbonization, strengthen climate resilience, and win the race to a cleaner future.

  • Bringing More Talent Here
    Immigrants have founded almost half of Fortune 500 companies. We want those leaders here - not somewhere else. We need to expand pathways for global STEM talent and reject policies that weaken our innovation base.
  • Building a Healthier Future
    NIH-funded research contributed to 99% of drugs approved between 2010 and 2019. These investments support 500,000+ jobs in the US. Strong and sustained NIH funding is essential to cure diseases, extend lives, and maintain American leadership in biomedical science.
  • Harnessing AI
    AI is here and there is no turning back. This new technological domain brings extraordinary opportunities and unprecedented risk. AI requires smart, proactive policies and clear, ethical safeguards to maximize benefits and reduce harms.
  • Better Education and More Jobs
    STEM occupations are projected to grow roughly twice as fast as other occupations over the next decade. Yet only ⅓ of 8th graders are proficient in math. We must strengthen STEM education and technical training so American workers can thrive in the future.
  • Using Evidence to Make Policy
    Our government spends $6 trillion per year, but very few programs are rigorously evaluated for effectiveness. Policy decisions should be grounded in rigorous data and measurable results.
  • A Government That Builds and Delivers
    The U.S. Government should cut red tape, streamline permitting, strengthen talent, and execute better. We will not build the future with the government of the past.
