? 1. What, if anything, do you believe the federal government should do to control global climate change?

Answer from Tim Prince:

We should strengthen fuel standards in all cars sold domestically. The federal government should encourage clean burning technologies.

? 2. What should the federal government do, if anything, to ensure that every American has health coverage?

Answer from Tim Prince:

In the wealthiest, most powerful nation on earth, no one should have to choose between taking their child to a doctor and paying the rent. Families should decide how best to take care of their parents instead of being priced out of quality care our retired deserve. Tim is committed to making sure every single American has access to affordable, effective health care coverage. He wants to fix the disastrous Medicare Part D and ensure our seniors can afford their prescription drugs

? 3. What, if anything, should the federal government do about immigration?

Answer from Tim Prince:

As the most diverse state in the nation, California's vibrant diversity reflects the foundation of America's strength. It emphasizes the fundamental principles of inclusion and national unity that respect the rules of law and human dignity. Tim Prince believes that the American immigration system should be inclusive, fair, and just. Immigration must be consistent with American values of freedom, opportunity, compassion, and respect for human rights.
