Who and Why Should Be a U.S. President 2020 - Meet Tulsi Gabbard


Tulsi is the first female combat veteran to ever run for president and the first female combat veteran ever elected to Congress, along with Tammy Duckworth. Gabbard has served for seven years on the Foreign Affairs, Armed Services, and Homeland Security Committees, where she's been intimately involved with sensitive, national security issues.

Love for others, for her community, and for her country has inspired Tulsi to live a life defined by service.



The U.S need your help
We need to raise $1,000,000 by the end of the year so we're ready to launch powerful digital and TV ads in early states like New Hampshire. This is a 100% people-powered campaign — I do not accept money from PACs or lobbyists. Will you donate now?


As president, Tulsi Gabbard will:
End regime change wars. Regime change wars — toppling foreign governments we don't like — have drained our country of trillions of dollars, undermined our national security, and cost the lives of thousands of our men and women in uniform. My first responsibility as your Commander in Chief will be to put an end to this disastrous foreign policy that has been perpetuated by warmongers in both political parties.


End the new Cold War and nuclear arms raceShortsighted, self-serving leaders in the grip of the military industrial complex have brought us into a new Cold War and nuclear arms race with Russia and China, threatening the future of the planet and the entire human race. On day one of my presidency, I will call a summit between the United States, China, and Russia to work to end this new Cold War, stop the arms race, reduce tensions, and increase cooperation going forward.


Invest in the needs of the American peopleI will be your voice in Washington. I will put an end to the failed policy of being the world's police and nation builder, redirecting the trillions of dollars wasted on regime change wars and weapons to meet your needs here at home. We will work side-by-side, treating others with respect, and ensure a cleaner, safer, and healthier future for all Americans.


Guarantee quality healthcare for allEveryone deserves quality healthcare in our country. As president, I will work to ensure all Americans have that quality healthcare through a single-payer system that is incentivized to increase health and prevent and heal disease, whilst allowing individuals to access private insurance if they choose.


Build a green economy for the 21st century. We can and must begin to build a 100% renewable energy economy. By redirecting the billions spent every year subsidizing the fossil fuel industry to instead invest in the industries of the future — expanding wind, solar, and geothermal — we will guarantee a cleaner, safer energy future and create high-quality jobs.


Protect the environment"Environmentalism" is not a policy choice. It is part of our everyday lives. Central to our rights as Americans, to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, is having clean air to breathe, clean water to drink, and safe food to eat. These essential elements are core to the existence of every human being, and it is my personal commitment to fight to protect and improve them. 

Protect Social SecurityFor generations, Social Security has provided economic security and lifted millions of Americans out of poverty. I will ensure the program remains solvent without reducing benefits for those who rely on it.

 

Care for our veteransIt is our nation's responsibility to ensure that our veterans receive the care, services, and benefits they've earned and deserve. Taking care of our brothers and sisters in uniform who have selflessly served our country must be a priority for Congress and our country. To honor our veterans, military service members, and their families for their service to our great country, it is my personal commitment to never send our troops into harms' way unless it is absolutely necessary.


Protect our civil libertiesOur right to privacy, guaranteed by the 4th Amendment of the Constitution, is constantly under attack by overreaching intelligence agencies and big tech monopolies that falsely invoke national security to take away our civil liberties, privacy, and freedoms.

Protect our democracyAs your president, I will make it a priority to guarantee a government of, by, and for the people by strengthening campaign finance laws, protecting voting rights for every American, and ensuring our elections are protected against all forms of interference. My Securing America's Elections Act ensures either a paper ballot or voter-verified paper backup, so no foreign countries or individuals can skew results. If we lose faith in our elections, democracy crumbles.
